Chapter 937

“Conrad glared at Fia speechlessly.

“Look, you can’t stay here. Can’t you see we’re about to have some girl talk?” Fia softened her tone and pleaded

gently to him. She knew he would not be able to resist her plea.

“Fine. Call me if you need anything.” Conrad immediately obliged and walked out the door.

Sitting up on her bed, Fia chatted with Barbara for a while before looking at the girl in black. “So, Madam Barbara,

she’s your friend, right?”

“Yes, a really good friend. In fact, she’s like a sister to me,” Barbara replied, with a hidden meaning behind her

words.

“Sister?” Fia smiled. “Sally said you and Britney are really close. Would Britney be angry if you suddenly have a new

sister?”

Barbara’s smile almost cracked when she heard this.

Looking at her, Fia said calmly, “Or have you lost interest in Britney?”

“Mrs. Maxwell, please don’t stir up conflict between the sisters. Every family has its own problems, you know.”

Suddenly, the girl in black opened her mouth and interrupted them. Fia turned and took a good look at her.

Although Barbara was already in her thirties, she was still very hot-headed and stubborn, as if she never learned

how to get along with others throughout her career. Thus, it was not easy for Barbara to befriend anyone.

Yet now, she had a new friend–a rather young one, in fact. This looked really suspicious in Fia’s eyes.

“What happened to your voice?” Fia asked.

The girl lowered her head and covered her face with her cap and mask.

“I had an accident. My vocal cords were ruined because of that.”

“Is it treatable?”

“I haven’t a clue.”

Remaining silent for a few seconds, Fia asked cautiously, “It’s not just the vocal cords, am I right? Is your face

injured too?”

A cold glint flickered in the girl’s eyes underneath her cap as she clenched her fists in silence.

Sensing that she had probably triggered the girl’s trauma, Fia hurriedly comforted her. ” Doctor Sally is a good

doctor. You could seek help from her.”

“I did.” The girl said, “But she doesn’t seem all that willing to help.”

Fia looked at Barbara and asked, “Have you talked to Sally about this?”

Barbara smiled bitterly. “She was the one who asked Sally.”

Sitting up straight, Fla asked, “How did you ask her?”

The girl said slowly with her hoarse voice, “I asked her to find someone who’d volunteer to donate their skin to me.”

Fia was stunned hearing this.

“She said I can use my own skin for the transplant. But if I want to recover my looks, it’d be foolish to cut off my

own skin and leave a huge scar on some other parts of my body, right? So I asked her if she could find me

volunteers. I told her I could pay them.”

The girl paused momentarily before scoffing. “Then, I mentioned her brother. I heard he’s really good at medicine

so I was hoping that he’d also help. However, she refused my request to ask for her brother’s help.”

”

Fia gulped as she stared at the girl. She had a hunch that she knew who she was but she did not dare to ask.

The girl beamed at her. “Funny, right? Perhaps she doesn’t like me because I’m ugly. Maybe that’s why she doesn’t

want to help me.”

“No, I don’t think so.” Fia said with a heavy heart, “Perhaps she has her own problems too so she can’t help you.”

“Is her problem as painful as mine? I fell for the wrong man. He not only broke my heart, but his actions even led to

the disfigurement of my face and loss of my home.” The girl smiled. It was so frightening that if one looked at her

smiling at night, they might think they had seen at ghost.

Fia, however, did not think her smile was terrifying. She only felt really bad and sad for the girl. She was quite

certain that this girl was the real Britney Thomas!

The poor girl must have lost heart after being hurt by the man she loved with all she had. Now, she was living in

pain while her enemies were living comfortably. How could she bear it?

“Mrs. Maxwell.” Seeing that the timing was right, Barbara said, “I’d like a favor from you.”

“What do you need?” Fia replied in earnest, “If it’s anything that I could do, I’ll see to it the best I can.”

Barbara said in a chilly tone as hatred flickered in her eyes, “I want to join forces with you and Mr. Maxwell.”

”

Fia stared at Barbara in surprise.

Barbara gave her a bitter smirk and said, “I know I am a prideful woman. I’ve always thought I am strong and

independent. That I don’t need help from anyone. Yet now, I’m at my wit’s end. I don’t know what I should do to

defeat this cunning and shameless foe!”

Hearing Barbara’s words, Fia finally understood why she was here to see her.

If Barbara came here alone, Fia would probably not believe her. In fact, she would suspect her even more and think

that she must have been tricked by Esme.

However, with the real Britney by her side, Fla believed her right away.

“Tell me.” Fia asked, “Is she your sister?”

Barbara glanced at Britney before mustering up her courage to say, “Yes. She is my real sister!”
