Chapter 268
Beth looked at his expression and knew that she couldn’t force him too much.
She then slowly said, “The case is going to be brought to court tomorrow. If you feel sorry for Fia, we
can forget about it. We’ll leave this to the law…”
“Fine. We’ll announce the engagement tomorrow.”
Esme let out a sigh of relief and looked at Beth gratefully. Then, she asked in a pretentious tone, “So….
What about Fia?”
“The entire Gryphon will know about your engagement tomorrow. Will the outside world think you’re
committing polygamy? That won’t do well for all three of us.”
“Maybe we can forget about this, Conrad? I believe that the law will prove Fia’s innocence, won’t it?”
“When the reporters ask about it, I’ll tell them that Fia and I have already divorced!” Conrad left.
Esme let out a victorious smile.

“Don’t be so happy yet, Esme. He still hasn’t confirmed his divorce with Fia!” Beth said regretfully. “If I
had known that he could be persuaded so easily, I would have told him to finalize the divorce today so
that you can get engaged tomorrow.”
“No need,” Esme said with confidence. “With Fia’s personality, as soon as she hears about my
engagement with Conrad, she would want the divorce even if he is unwilling.”
“Would she be that foolish?” Both Hank and Beth couldn’t really believe it.
“Mom, dad. Both of you didn’t stay with Fia for as long as I did. I know her. She would demand a
divorce!”
Viciousness appeared on her face.
Even if she didn’t want to, she would force her to divorce him!
The door was opened and Priscilla walked in with a strange expression on her face.
“Fia, Mr. Maxwell is here to see you.”
Fia wanted to refuse but she could already hear those familiar footsteps.
“Get out!” Conrad gave Priscilla a cold glare.
“Fine. Call me if you need anything.”
Priscilla gave Fia a look. Thinking about what her cousin was going to do next, she felt somewhat sorry.
for her.
Despite their great relationship when they were little, her cousin was going to completely ignore all that.
What was the saying again? One must become brutal to be able to reach one’s goal!
“Why are you here?” Fia looked at him coolly. “Don’t you need to accompany her?”
Conrad didn’t say anything and simply took a step forward to caress her.
“Fia, I won’t let you go to jail.”
Fia was stunned. At that moment, she could feel the love coming from his heart.
Was it affection?

Chapter 269
Was it love?
But when she remembered how he would turn around and abandon her when Esme was involved, she
suppressed all her thoughts.
Even if he had some feelings for her, they couldn’t be compared with his feelings for his first love.
“Fia… Tomorrow… Tomorrow I’ll have Silas take you home!” With that, Conrad didn’t care about Fia
resisting him and kissed her.
“What are you doing?!” Fia pushed him away in anger. “Have you washed your face? Did you wash
your hands? Have you changed your clothes? Did you just hug Esme and come to disgust me again?!”
When she thought of the possibility, she began to retch again.
There was pain in Conrad’s eyes. When he thought about the engagement tomorrow, he couldn’t face
her at all. It didn’t matter even if he wouldn’t marry Esme after the engagement.
He became even more regretful, worried that she would see through him.
He didn’t dare to stay any longer. “Take care of yourself, Silas will take you home tomorrow.”
After that, he gave her one final look before leaving.
