Chapter 404
Fia drank the water, and the saltiness in her mouth finally disappeared.
As she couldn’t see how gloomy Eileen was, all she could say to alleviate the awkwardness was, Let’s try some
other dishes.”
“I’m not a lab rat!” Eileen put down her fork. She didn’t dare to give it another try even if she was starving.
Conrad took his fork and tried the second dish.
His expression turned dark and he tried the third, the fourth, and then the soup.
He was almost sent to the afterlife by his own cooking.
He could learn anything quickly, but he was like a complete fool when it came to cooking.
“Forget about what I said. Fia can’t use you as a butler with the kind of cooking skills you have!” Eileen looked at
Conrad, worried. “Just hire a cook, please. Otherwise, Fia will die from being poisoned!”
“Alright,” Conrad agreed. He could continue learning how to cook, but he couldn’t mistreat Fia because of this.
Once he was very good at cooking, he could then cook for her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFia immediately said, “Get Mrs. Taylor back too and hire a new person to take care of your mother.”
She was worried that Mrs. Taylor would be harassed by Beryl if she stayed in the family residence.
Beryl had screamed at Mrs. Taylor for helping her earlier.
After what happened to Beryl today, she would no doubt get Mrs. Taylor into trouble.
Conrad realized that too, and knew that it couldn’t wait.
“I’ll have Silas send lunch over. I’ll go to the family residence to pick up Mrs. Taylor.”
“Alright!” Fia was quite happy with his arrangement.
Conrad first called Silas about lunch, However, he had just gotten into his car when the driver from the family
residence called him.
“Master Maxwell! Something has happened! Please come to the family residence right now!” Conrad was worried
about Mrs. Taylor and he drove very quickly.
A girl wearing a white dress with a bag behind her was jaywalking.
Conrad’s sports car came like lightning. It was too fast.
When the girl heard the honk, she turned around and looked, only to get so shocked that she fell on the road.
There was a screech. Conrad winded down the car window. The car was about half a meter away
from the girl.
He frowned with a dark expression.
Out of courtesy, he got out of the car and asked with a nonchalant expression, “Are you hurt?”
The girl could only sit on the road, her eyes opened wide. She was so shocked as she thought that she was going to
get hit by the car.
She shook her head, but couldn’t speak because she was shocked.
She looked at the man and her heart began to thump uncontrollably.
The man was handsome and stylish.
With just one look, he could make any woman blush. But because of his sternness, they wouldn’t dare cause any
trouble.
Conrad’s eyes fell on the woman’s face and Fia’s face appeared in his mind again.
It was the same facial structure, similar sharp brows, and pale skin.
Even her hair color and length were the same.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked like a high-school version of Fia at first sight.
And the fear in her eyes was reminiscent of the times when Fia was bullied.
He pulled his attention back and grabbed some cash from his wallet.
“This is compensation.”
“No! Sir… I… I’m fine. No need to pay me any compensation!”

Annie stood up and patted her dress but her heart still beat uncontrollably. She didn’t know if it was because of the
shock or because of the handsome man in front of her.
Conrad held the money toward her. “Take it.”
“No… There’s no need!” Annie waved her hand with her face red.
Conrad was worried about Mrs. Taylor, so he glanced at her scraped kneecap. He then said, “After two days, If
there’s a need, go look for Silas Whitley at Maxwell Corporation.”
Annie’s eyes opened wide. She had heard about it. The megacorporation based in Gryphon. It was well-known
throughout Fortuna.
