Chapter 1053
Mary marched toward the Maxwell villa as she wiped her tears.
“What a heartless man! Did he fake his love for Fia in front of us all this while?! And for what? To avenge that first love of his? For that witch?!”
Sensing how discontented her mother was, Sharon got down from her father’s arms and hurried to grasp Mary’s hand.
“Mommy, are we looking for my godmother?”
Hearing this, tears began streaking down Mary’s face again as she kneeled down to hold her daughter.
“I’m so sorry, Sharon. I don’t know where your godmother’s gone. I have sent her so many messages but she did not reply to them at all… I… I am so…”
Then, her sobs turned into weeping.

Tyler, on the other hand, was standing next to his wife, conflicted. He really wanted to tell his wife and daughter about the plan but he was too afraid to do so! He was afraid that if he unveiled Conrad’s plan to them, it might lead to Fia never coming back!
So, all he could do now was stand there utterly powerless. This time, Conrad had no one but himself to overcthis crisis. It was up to him to catch the perpetrator.
A few moments later, night had cloaked the sky and Mary had gone to bed with Sharon. Seeing that they were fast asleep, Tyler quietly snuck out the house to meet Conrad.
When he reached the Maxwell villa, he saw a silhouette creeping nearby. Tyler cried out in shock, which attracted the attention of the bodyguards. They immediately had the stranger surrounded, waving their torchlights at him.
“Holy moly, what the hell is wrong with you people?!”
It was Victor. He put a hand above his eyes, struggling to look into the bodyguards’
torchlights and said in a seething tone, “It is I, Victor Maxwell! What? You don’t recognize me anymore?!”
Seeing this, the bodyguards switched off their torchlights. The bodyguard’s leader looked at Tyler before asking Victor, “Why are you two here?”
Tyler pointed a finger at Victor and said, “I’m here to see your boss. I saw this shady man creeping about so I called out for you guys.”
“Shady my *ss!” Victor was so pissed and hurt from hearing that. Frankly, his eyes were still hurting from the torchlights in his face earlier!
Tyler looked at Victor in disgust and said, “So why are you sneaking around here in the middle of the night? Have you lost your way to your bed?”
“Sneaking?! Who’s sneaking?! I’m standing right here, out in the open!” Victor glared at Tyler. “What about you?! Why are you out late at night, huh?!”
“I’m here to see Conrad for business, of course. Unlike a certain someone who likes to keep causing trouble for him, I’m a trusted ally who has proper business with him.”
“I’ve not caused him any trouble recently, you *sshole!” Victor retorted furiously as he rubbed on his aching stomach. Geez, he was so pissed that his wounds were about to be torn open!
“So, why are you here?” Tyler said sarcastically, “Don’t tellyou’re so worried for Conrad that you can’t sleep and that’s why you’re here to check up on him, aye?”
“So what if I’m worried for him, huh?! What? Are you the only person on this plallowed to not sleep in the middle of the night?!”
“Heh! You? Worry for him? Save it, bruh! He’ll live more peacefully if you don’t cause him any more trouble.”

“Hello?” Conrad’s cold voice could be heard from the phone as soon as the call was answered. Tyler immediately told him about Victor sneaking in front of his house.
“I see. Let him be.” Conrad sounded indifferent after learning it.
Victor raised his voice and shouted, “I really am not here to cause you trouble! It’s Eileen! She asked me for help! So, I’m here to ask you on her behalf!”
Hearing Victor’s words, Conrad paused for two seconds before saying, “Tyler, tell the guards to keep an eye on him. Don’t let him get anywhere near my house. I don’t want to see him within 500 meters radius around my house.”
Then, he hung up.
Hearing Conrad’s words, Tyler ordered the bodyguards, “Guys, your boss has ordered to keep him 500 meters away from the house!”
“You’re lying!” Victor becagitated from hearing that. “He wouldn’t say that! You’re just bullsh*tting!”
500 meters? What did his cousin think he was? A pest? This was a huge insult to him!
More importantly, the distance between the gate of the villa to the main entrance was, 500 meters! Conrad had made it clear that he wanted to shun him!
