“Why did she say good luck?” Conrad asked curiously.
Fla narrowed her eyes as she smiled, not letting Conrad know that she had regained some of her
vision.
She said, “Maybe because she saw that you’re treating me especially well now, not like in the past. when you kept on hurting me.”
“If I can wind back time, I’d never ask for a divorce.”
Once they were at the ward, Fia lay there with a frown.
Thanks to the medicine on her back, she was in pain.
Her hands grabbed at the bed sheet, but she didn’t cry out.
Conrad looked at her and remembered Jason.
He wanted to explain to Fia that the person that got to her was Jason, not him.
But he was afraid. He was afraid that if he said that, Fia would be even more regretful toward Jason.
He kept on reading articles from some of the so-called dating experts on the web. He saw something that went along the lines of “Guilt and regret, after a long time, can become love”. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
He was afraid that her guilt toward Jason would become love, and she would want no one but him.
After struggling for a while, Conrad chose not to say anything.
“Fia, do you want to drink some milk tea?”
Fia’s eyes turned bright. “Yes, can I?”
“Doctor Hall only said that you can’t eat spicy food and food that is too pungent. Milk tea is fine.”
She licked her lips and said, “Yes, please.”
Conrad looked into her eyes. “Seems like your eyes have brightened a bit.”
“Is that so?” Fia rubbed her eyes. “But I still can’t see anything. Are they as bright as before?”
Conrad lowered his eyes and touched the corner of her eye.
“Don’t worry. Your eyes will recover soon.”
Fia simply smiled at him, saying, “Yeah. I believe it too.”
Conrad was slightly stunned. He felt that she was slightly different.
She had more self-confidence. She was happler too.
Fia then said, “Eating desserts can make me happy. Get milk tea for yourself too. If you don’t like milk tea, a cake is fine too.”
“I’ll buy you the milk tea and the cake,” Conrad said as he saw through her ploy.
“You can buy anything else you want!” Fia said, blushing.
Conrad held her hand while he ordered milk tea and cake through his phone with his other hand,
He also texted Silas to bring over Fia’s phone.
Silas and the delivery arrived at the same time.
Conrad put the straw into the cup and assisted Fia as she drank.
Fia lay on the bed with a sorry expression on her face.
She took a few sips before saying, “This makes me feel like I’m useless.”
“Don’t think that way. I like how you’re depending on me.”
Conrad told Silas to put the cake on the side. He unboxed it and scooped a spoonful and fed it to
Fia.
Fia narrowed her eyes with a smile on her face. “So sweet… So fragrant… I’m fulfilled.”
Conrad then took some time to look over Fia’s phone that Silas passed to him. He used the phone’s search function and quickly found a virus that exposed the phone’s location.
The virus was not from him of course. It most likely had something to do with the kidnapping.
After deleting the virus, he installed an anti-virus application on Fia’s phone and added himself to the whitelist. No one would be able to plant any more viruses into her phone anymore.
After doing all of that, he opened her contact list. The most recent caller was Jason.
He looked at Fia who was sipping the milk tea and was hesitant about whether to delete it.
After a few seconds, he chose to delete it anyway.
He didn’t want to leave behind any hidden threats!
Fia drank the milk tea and peeked at Conrad.
Seemed like he was playing with her phone.
He was using it for quite a while. Was he checking on some of her private things?
She gave it a thought. There was nothing inside that she had to keep a secret.
“Conrad, what’s there inside my phone? You’ve been looking at it for a long time.” Suddenly, Conrad turned and stared at Fia.
