Chapter 509
“I just want to see them from a distance. I won’t show myself.”
Peter gave it a thought before touching her red lips lightly. Then, he said in a frigid voice, “I already promised you
that I’ll send them to a safe place to live the rest of their lives in peace. What else do you want?”
Esme couldn’t say anything.
“If you don’t obey me, they’ll have to live on the streets once they’ve lost my protection.”
Esme remembered how heartless Conrad was. Not only did he destroy everything the Mannings had, but her family
also owed a large amount of debt. If they were found by their debtors, she couldn’t imagine what they would be
forced to go through.
“Fine. I won’t see them. But you have to let me know that they’re safe.”
“Of course.” Peter took out his phone and clicked on a security
camera app.
Shown on screen was a small countryside cottage. There were all sorts of vegetables and flowers inside the garden.
Esme saw how aged her parents had become. Her father was bending his back together with her mother, taking
care of the crops.
The man’s cold, threatening voice rang in her ears. “Whether they can safely live the rest of their lives depends on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthow loyal you are to me.”
Esme bit her lips and said, “I won’t betray you.”
“Hahaha!” Peter laughed and stroked her spine. “You don’t have the courage to betray me anyway.”
The next day, Fia woke up early in the morning. She kicked the man
next to her.
Conrad raised her head and looked at her. “You want a drink?”
“Here’s the bad news for you.”
“Huh?”
“My period’s here.”
Which meant that she wasn’t pregnant.
It was indeed bad news for Conrad.
He wanted to have a child with her.
“It’s fine. We have time.” He got up and grabbed a pad for her.
Because of her period, Fia had wasted about five days doing nothing. She didn’t have much strength and she
couldn’t concentrate. So, all she did was lie around.
Even when she went to the company with Conrad, she would lie down on the sofa or the lounge.
She felt that she was discharging a bit too much during her period, and she felt quite powerless.
After her period was over, she pushed Conrad the next morning.
“I want to go to the hospital for a checkup. Can you ask Silas or Tiger to accompany me?”
“Can’t I accompany you?” Conrad’s tone was a bit deep. He didn’t like the fact that if she needed to do something,
she would always ask Silas or Tiger to accompany her, but not him.
“Don’t you have an important meeting at the company today?”
“I can delay it.”
Fla simply let him help her wash up without really expecting him to commit. They then went to the hospital after
breakfast.
They went over to the gynecology department to see Sally.
When Sally saw her, she let out a wide smile.
“Don’t tell me you’re pregnant.”
“No. It’s just that I’m discharging a bit too much during my period and
feel quite weak.”
Sally nodded and said, “Let’s do the usual blood test and an
ultrasound.”
Fia said, “No need for ultrasound. I’m not pregnant.”
“You should do a test anyway.” Sally gave Conrad a glance. “I’ll do her checkup for now. You go and pay and get a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnumber for the
ultrasound.”
“Sure.” Conrad didn’t suspect anything and went over to line up for
the ultrasound. It was a normal procedure.
Not to mention that a lot of people would go for the ultrasound, so he needed to line up earlier. Since Fia didn’t like
him to use his connections to skip the queue, he had no choice but to line up and register.
After Conrad was away, Fia quickly told Sally, “Ever since my eyes could see something blurry last time, it didn’t
improve any further.”
“The specialist is here today. I’ll take you there.”
“Thanks.”
“You’re welcome,” Sally said and then called her assistant to assist her while she was away for the moment.
While she led Fia to the ophthalmology department, she asked, “Have
you been in touch with Jason lately?”
“Not really.”
“I’m worried about something lately.
“About what?”
“I’m acquainted with the Thomas family in Gryphon. Several days ago, I accompanied my mother to Thomas‘ for a
visit. They said that their second daughter was coming home soon and they want her to meet with Jason. Seems
like the parents from both sides wanted to matchmake them.“
