Chapter 149
Conrad went back up to the master bedroom. Fia was sitting in front of the dressing table with a hand
over her belly.
Her expression was dark… And somewhat sorrowful.
He walked in and squatted down, and helped her put the bracelet on.
“What are you doing?!” Fia flung his hand away in shock.
“I washed the bracelet. It belongs to you from now on,” Conrad said in a gentle tone.
Fia frowned. “Why didn’t you go console her?”
She thought that he wouldn’t be back for a while.
He would always first console Esme and then send her home.
“I’m a man of my words. I won’t see her again if nothing important is happening.”
“Oh, really? Let’s see how long you can fake this.”
Fia wanted to stand up and leave. She didn’t want to speak with Conrad.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe grabbed her wrist and didn’t want to let her go.
He growled and asked, “You were putting your hand on your tummy just now. Are you feeling upset?”
“Upset about what?” Fia looked at him in confusion.
“That you’re infertile.”
“You want a child?” Conrad asked carefully, worried that he would hurt her.
Fia suddenly asked, “If I do, what do you plan to do?”
“We can go for artificial insemination,” he whispered.
Fia looked away. “I heard that getting sperm artificially can get very painful.”
“I’m not scared.”
Fia could feel something stabbing in her heart. “Even if you’re not afraid, I am. I heard it gets very
painful. They’ll use a very large needle.”
Conrad grabbed her hand and held it tightly, breathing into it.
“Then let’s get a child from an orphanage. If you think one is not enough, we can get a few more.”
“Are you crazy?!” Fia pulled her hand away and stared at Conrad furiously.
“You, the CEO of Maxwell Corporation, the heir to the household, adopting a child from an orphanage
?! You’ll be a living joke!”
“What else can I do?” Conrad said helplessly. “You want a child, right?”
“I didn’t say anything of the sort! You simply assumed it!” Fia looked away and didn’t want to see him.
“Since the wedding, you’ve told me about wanting a child a few times. You ate all types of medicine
and went through all types of therapies all because you wanted a child.”
Fia bit her lips.
She was saddened.
She thought that he never knew about her wanting a child.
He knew everything!
Yet, he kept on being so pretentious. What was the point of telling her this now?
“I’m so sorry. I have only begun to learn how to look at things from your perspective.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe stood up, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly.
“Fia, give us one more chance. I’ll prove to you that I’m not joking.”
“One more chance, huh?” Fia thought about the child in her womb.
She really wanted to give him one more chance.
Not for him. For the child.
Once the child had a father, the child would have a complete family.
The child would be able to grow up healthily in a whole family. The child would be able to live
cheerfully.
“I won’t disappoint you.”
Conrad felt regretful and wanted to compensate her somehow.
“Fine. I’ll give you another chance.” Fia heaved a sigh of relief. If he was able to perform well, she
would tell him about the pregnancy.
She would let go of her resentment and build a life with him.
Since… She didn’t want to love anyone anymore if she had to leave him.
For her child, she was willing to let it all go.
The next day, a master craftsman delivered the memorial. A tablet.
