She smiled and pulled him aside.
“Conrad, I want to talk to her alone. Okay?”
Of course, Conrad was not going to let her do that.
Fia said to him earnestly, “Don’t worry, Conrad. You’ve put her under house arrest. So, she can’t do anything to me. Besides, I have regained my eyesight. You go wait downstairs. I’ll call for you if there’s anything I need.”
It took a lot of tand effort to persuade him. Worrying that Fia might lose trust in him for not allowing her to be alone with Beryl, Conrad relented.

Hearing this, Beryl shoved down the venomous words that she prepared to spout at Fia. Although she was still provided with everything she asked, Beryl was no different than a prisoner in the residence. She yearned for her freedom.
“Will you letout if I stop hurting and scolding her?”
“No,” Conrad responded firmly before going downstairs.
Fia sat down and looked at the smashed wine bottle before pointing at a sofa. “Con, sit down.”
Beryl stared at her defensively. “I won’t chastise you. But don’t think you can orderaround.”
Fia smirked. “Don’t worry. Even if you askto order you around, I won’t oblige.”
“So, what do you want to talk toabout?” Beryl asked curiously.
“You and I. We don’t have anything to talk about. However, I have a friend who would like to have a word with you.”
“Who?” Beryl asked defensively, “A man? A girl? I tell you, if you dare to betray Conrad…! I’′′
“Jason Evans.” Fia interrupted her, “His mother… Clarice Evans. You know her, right?”
Beryl’s eyes widened and she glowered at Fia furiously. “So, they sent you? What do you want?!” Then, she clenched her fists and said, “Conrad hates them! If you dare to be on their side, I will make sure Conrad leaves you no matter what!”
“Sure, go tell him to leave me. I don’t care. However, if Conrad knew that you had murdered a toddler who was not even three years old… What do you think he would think of you?”
Fia simpered at her coldly. She had never liked this mother-in-law of hers. She could forgive Beryl for everything that she did to her in the past. However, that twhen she hurt her and her mother when her mother was fatally ill… There was no way she could forgive her even if she kneeled and apologized to her!

Today, she cbecause she needed to ask about Jason’s little sister.
“Bullsh*t!” Beryl, trembling anxiously, replied with a shaken voice, “Her daughter’s death has nothing to do with me! Nothing! All I wanted to do was confront that cheating husband of mine! I did not want to do anything to Clarice’s daughter! The little girl was just unlucky! Yes… It’s that girl’s own fault. It was late at night and, yet, she did not go to bed. It was her own fault for going to the deck. It was her own fault for tripping and falling into the ocean!”

Fla glared at Beryl coldly and said slowly, “If you had not gone and caused trouble for Ms. Evans, attracting everyone’s attention on the ship, the girl would not have woken up from her sleep. Because of you, she woke up and saw that her mother was not around, and she went to the deck to find her mother. Then, she got pushed and shoved by the crowd into the ocean!”
“Bullsh*t!” Beryl screeched loudly. “It’s that woman’s fault! If she did not seduce my husband, this all would never have happened! Her daughter’s death was God’s punishment to them!”
Fia closed her eyes for a moment before standing up and walking toward Beryl.
“Wha… What are you doing?” Beryl got anxious. Fia was glaring at her so fiercely and sharply that it terrified her.
“Tell me. After the girl fell into the ocean, did you use your connections to sabotage the search? Did you pull any strings to call off the rescue boats?” Fla stared coldly at Beryl’s face and asked her word by word.
