Conrad almost choked. As he tried to control his temper, he loosened the strength he used to pull her.
Fia pulled away from him without hesitation and walked ahead.
Eused this chance to get close to Conrad and whispered, "Conrad, Fia is going too far...
“She ignores her husband who’s standing right here as she approaches another man so passionately…”
“Shut up!” Conrad gave Emse a glare before following them.
He pushed Jason, who was by Fia’s side, away.
Jason didn’t want to argue with him and simply walked over to the other side.
“How are you feeling lately?”
“Thank you, Evans. I’m feeling alright lately.”
Jason frowned. “When you went to the hospital last time, my colleague said that you have mild depression. It’s not something neglectable. You have to stay positive.”

Fia said, “After my mom passed away, I didn't feel that well so I went to have a checkup.”
“Not well? Are you feeling better?” Conrad asked in a worried tone.
Fia sighed. “If I hadn’t recovered, I wouldn’t be standing here now, would I? It’s nothing worth worrying about.”
She then turned to Jason with a frown, signaling him to stop talking about this.
Jason nodded and shut up.
Conrad began to digest what he had just heard and asked, “What’s with the depression?”
He looked at her carefully and recalled how they had been interacting with each other for the whole week.
She looked fine.
“Everyone has a little bit of depression,” Fia said calmly. “Not to mention that my mom just passed away. It’s normal that I’m not feeling well.”
“It’s good that you’re alright now.” Conrad held her hand. “If you’re experiencing anything, you have to letknow. We can share the burden together.”
“Sure,” she said as she glanced at Conrad. She noted his rejection of Ejust now.
She was touched.
He did it.
Jason could feel the two of them slowly warm up to each other and felt like a third wheel.
“I’m going in first, Fia. After handing over the gift, I still have to go back to work.”
“Sure. If you’re free, let’s have a meal together with my husband,” Fia said with a smile.
Jason was slightly stunned before nodding and he went into the Manning’s family hfirst.
Conrad put his arm over Fia’s shoulders and muttered into her ears, “Thank you.”
Fia shoved him. “For what?”
“To ask him to have dinner together withtoo, and not with you alone.” Conrad felt his mood brighten up.
There were many people in the Manning residence. It was very lively.

Fia also smiled gently and gracefully next to him, just like how she did in the past as his wife.
“Cuz!”
A voice rang and Fia turned to look at the man.
“Fia.” Victor smiled and then patted Sapphire, his fiancée, on the back. “Greet them.”
Sapphire looked at Conrad’s hand that was holding Fia’s.
She instinctively got closer to Victor and said, “Hello, Conrad. Fia.”
Fia frowned and couldn’t respond as she did in the past.
All she could think about was Eileen. When she heard Victor’s voice, she thought she would see her.
She was too ignorant.
Victor was a man way worse than Conrad could ever be.
He kept on parading his fiancée Sapphire around, but would hurt Eileen behind everyone’s back.
And even forced her to get an abortion.
“Fia?” Sapphire waved her hand in front of her. “You don’t remember me?”
