Chapter 1021

“What is Eileen’s first job after returning?”

Conrad replied, “A reality dating show.”

Fia was surprised to hear that. “Dating… show?”

“Yes.”

“But aren’t celebrities forbidden from getting romantically involved with anyone?”

“It’s a reality show. A. Show. It’s not real.” Seeing that Fia was still worried, Conrad began explaining to her

patiently. “The character she’ll be playing is an aloof, ice-queen type of lady. So, she’ll need to reject every male

participant of the show anyway.”

Fia knew about these shows. She had watched her fair share of TV shows.

“But… isn’t this still risky? What if people accuse her of having unrealistic expectations of men? Her good name is

on the line, you know?”

“There are many strong, independent women today. They aren’t interested in dating and marriage. So, if Eileen can

establish herself to be one, she’ll be getting a lot of traction from such women. They’ll be her long-lasting fans.”

Then, Conrad continued with his analysis. “Besides, Eileen has the looks to pull this off.”

Fia suddenly asked, “So… she must never be romantically involved with anyone, ever?”

Conrad frowned and said, “Yes.”

“Have you discussed this with Eileen?”

“We had a discussion with her manager. She agrees with the plan.”

“Oh, no. This still doesn’t feel right. I’ll give Eileen a call and ask her!”

Fia quickly walked to the backyard to give her friend a call, leaving Conrad behind. 11

Staring at her walking away, Conrad could not help but feel abandoned by his sweet wife.

“Eileen, I heard about the reality dating show from Conrad. If you go with the plan, you’re not allowed to be

romantically involved with anyone! You might not be able to find a person you love for ever!”

Hearing her friend’s concerned voice, Eileen stifled a laugh and said, “So? Clinging onto a man would only stop me

from climbing higher in my career. I only want money and career now. I don’t need love!”

“But…”

Fia wanted to mention Victor. However, after giving it some thought, she decided not to.

“But what? Fia, if you’ve got anything to say, you can tell me. We’re best pals! I won’t get mad at you.”

Clearing her throat, Fla said, “No… I mean… What if you found someone in the future? You’re not going to just let

him go, are you?”

“Well, I might. At the very least, I won’t allow myself to get into a relationship in the next few years. Besides, I have

really high standards, you know? Not just any man can pique my interest. Oh, dear… Now that I think about it… I

might actually be alone all my life. Fia, dear, I might need to be your children’s godmother so they’ll take care of

me when I’m old. Haha! They could handle my funeral too!”

“Oh, don’t say that! You’re still young! You still have a lot to look forward to!”

“Yeah, yeah! I’ll live really long. Or else, how would I be able to attend your children’s wedding, hmmm?”

Then, the two besties had a long, joyful chat. When Fia came back to the living room, she did not see Conrad

anywhere. When she went upstairs to find him, she heard him talking on the phone.

“Treat this matter with utmost care. Do your best not to hurt her.”

Fia stopped in her tracks as she thought to herself, ‘Her? Who’s “her”? Esme Manning? So… He’s still unwilling to

hurt her, huh?”

“Yes, I understand. Just do all you can to avoid getting her hurt!”

Fia’s heart sank when she heard this. Just who was it on the phone? Why did Conrad keep asking that person to not

hurt “her”?

Ending his call, Conrad walked out of his study and saw Fia standing in the hallway.

“Fia, are you done talking to Eileen?”

“Yes, I am.” Fia quickly regained her composure and walked to him with a smile. She held his hand and asked

nonchalantly, “Why aren’t you waiting for me in the living room?”

“I had to handle some work.”

“Oh, I see. If you’re busy, you can go to the company and take care of it. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. I won’t go

anywhere. Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley will take care of me.”

Conrad took a good look at her. Seeing that she looked calm and collected, he concluded that she did not

misunderstand anything.

He put his hand around her waist and asked, “But won’t you miss me if I’m not at home?”
