Chapter 1157
Conrad hit Silas from the back with a smack. “Why do I feel like you’re cursing at me?”
“I’m not!” Silas didn’t know if he should be happy or sad. The boss could be quite talkative after the amnesia. He was somewhat childish.
Family residence.
Beryl was complaining while holding Felicity’s hand.
“I wonder what Silas said to Conrad, making him not chso suddenly.”
Felicity consoled her. “Don’t worry. He must be busy with work lately. He’ll be back once he’s finished with work.”
“Cnow. How can I not love him as his mother? When he got into that accident, I was the one who thought of the way to wake him up.” Beryl pretended to wipe her tears away. “But Silas keeps on thinking that I have bad intentions and is wary of me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFelicity gave it a thought and said, “Maybe you’re overthinking things. Silas centers everything around Conrad. Other than Conrad, he doesn’t listen to anyone. He doesn’t want to go against you.”
“Ha! You wouldn’t know about it. Only I am sure about it! That he wishes for Conrad to recover his memories to get far away from me!” Beryl said with a sigh. “Conrad’s so much better now. If he recovered his memories, who knows how he would end up.”
Felicity nodded. “That’s right. There’s no need for him to recover his memories. Fia’s no longer here. There’s no point for him to remember her. He might end up falling into despair all over again.”
“True. You knowthe best,” Beryl said as she gently held Felicity in her arms. “Felicity, I like you a lot. I can see that you like Conrad too, don’t you?”
“…Madam Beryl,” Felicity said, embarrassed, but she didn’t want to hide her love anymore.
“That’s right. I like him, but it doesn’t look like he likes me.”
“He wouldn’t dislike you.” Beryl moved her hand up and held her face. “You look so pretty, and you have such a good family background too. Any man would fall for you! Not to mention that in the past five years, you’re the only girl that could get close to him!”
Felicity said with a scoff, “The only reason he’s willing to seeand talk withis because I sound like Fia.”
“But Fia’s dead, and you’re the one that’s left in this world!” Beryl tried her best to manipulate her. “You need to be bolder. Forget about the rules!”
Felicity was an adult and naturally knew what Beryl was talking about.
“All men are like that. After the first time, there will be a lot of follow-ups. If you can’t even count on the first time, of course, there won’t be a second time.” Beryl tapped on her face. “Abandon all your worries. Take the first step. Have courage!”
Felicity stared at Beryl. She had had the sthought in the past.
But she wasn’t courageous enough, and no one had told her the words she said.
Beryl was Conrad’s mother, which meant that she was her future mother-in-law. Suddenly, she gained sconfidence.
“I won’t let you down.”
“Good. I have faith in you!” Beryl said with a smile. Meanwhile, she was thinking about the kind of benefits she could get from both Maxwell Corporation and Parker Group once Felicity was done with Conrad!
She would be the one to win them all!
A honk cfrom the outside and Felicity stood up excitedly,

“Go.” Beryl straightened her scarf as she hid her smirk. She then walked out with a gentle expression on her face.
“Conrad!” Felicity wanted to help him when she saw Conrad getting out of the car.
In the past, Conrad wouldn’t refuse her help.
But this time, when he saw her, the face of that ill-tempered woman appeared in his mind.
“Conrad?” Felicity didn’t know what was wrong with him and extended her hand, wanting to help him again.
Conrad avoided her hand and said, “It’s getting late. You should go hand rest.”
Felicity trembled and said in a sad voice, “What’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?”
“No,” Conrad said, feeling a bit disgusted when she asked that question.
“Silas!”
Silas quickly walked over to help him up and then smiled at Felicity awkwardly. “My boss is unhappy about something at work. He’s not angry at you.”
He thought that since Maxwell Corporation and Parker Group were working together on quite a few projects, it wouldn’t be suitable if their relationship turned sour.
