Chapter 584
At the second-floor study facing the backyard, two men stood before the floor-to-ceiling window with different
expressions on their faces.
Nobody interrupted the heartfelt conversation between Fia and the two children. Her words were filled with concern
and love as if they were her own children.
She didn’t want any resentment between the siblings, which was why she had said those words.
Mary watched Fia interact with her two children for a long time as they played in the sandpit before she finally
walked away. She needed to reflect on how to be a good mother.
When Mary was pregnant with her children, she had been firm about how she would treat them. She would neither
favor nor neglect either of them.
However, because her son had been slower to develop, her daughter, who had been born earlier, had been
neglected.
Tyler sighed and gave Conrad an embarrassed smile.
“Sorry to have let you see such an embarrassing thing.”
Conrad said nothing as he watched Fia play with the two children in the sandpit, and Tyler continued, “I should thank
both of you.”
“Why?” Conrad asked, turning to Tyler. “You and your wife gave birth to twins, and fate allowed my wife to meet
them today.”
Tyler frowned. “The implication behind your words is too deep. I don’t understand.”
Conrad didn’t bother explaining much. He simply turned and walked toward the couch before
taking a seat.
“Let’s talk about business.”
Tyler glanced at Fia a little longer before walking over to Conrad and also sitting down.
“Did you come to the sea specifically to discuss the cooperation deal with me?”
“I didn’t come here especially for that,” Conrad said as he looked toward the window. From this angle, he couldn’t
see what was happening outside anymore. However, his gaze was gentle, as if he were still looking at Fia.
“I brought my wife here to see the sea.”
Tyler was surprised. “Has she not seen the sea before?”
“No.”

“More than three years.”
“Then you’re the one in the wrong, huh, Mr. Maxwell? Even if you were extremely busy with work, you should have
spent more time with your wife. It wouldn’t have been easy for the two of you to

get together, and life is short, so you should cherish your time together.”
“You’re right, Mr. Lane, Conrad replied easily, thinking about how he had acted in the past three years trying to be a
good husband, thinking that he had given her a refuge, but he hadn’t spent time with her like he was doing now.
“You’re a smart man, Mr. Maxwell, so I won’t say too much. But I’m curious… Why don’t you have kids yet, even
though you’ve been married for three years?”
Conrad felt his heart clenched tightly as he recalled Fia’s pain of losing her two children.
“They will come in time,” Conrad said, clenching his fist tightly.
Seeing the flash of pain on Conrad’s face, Tyler somewhat understood and quickly changed the topic.
“So, what happened to the northern suburbs in Gryphon? You clearly could have gotten it without a problem, so
why did your cousin end up with it?”
Conrad was annoyed at the mention of this.
“It was due to some personal matters, and I gave it to him.”
“Well, don’t bite my head off for asking about it. Your cousin seems carefree, but he has very high ambitions,” Tyler
said. He recalled Fia’s sincerity in not rejecting his son, so he added, “I found some clues about the accident I had
years ago.”
“Who did it?” Conrad asked, looking up.
“The main force is my family’s enemies in Oceania, but your cousin has also thrown his lot in with them.”
Conrad frowned. “Are you sure?”
“What do you think?” Tyler asked with a mischievous grin. “I’ve already uprooted my enemies in Oceania. As for
Victor… I didn’t bother with him for your sake since you saved me before. Anyway, I know he did it for his own
interest when he made a deal with my enemies.”
“Then, why are you telling me about this?”
“Because I was afraid you’d show him mercy,” Tyler said, not understanding why Conrad had easily given up the
northern suburbs to the other man.
“Mr. Maxwell, if we obtain the northern suburbs, I can act as a bridge to help Maxwell Corporation enter the
capital’s business district quickly!”
Lane Enterprise had plenty of branches around Oceania, and Mary’s family had a prominent position in the political
circle in the capital.
Tyler was grateful to Conrad for saving his life and wanted to help him now.
