The reason she didn’t tell him that her vision had improved was so that she could give him a surprise when her sight got completely restored.
Lips and lips touched. He held her face and slowly opened her lips.
He growled. “Is this much better?”
Fia felt something explode in her mind. She was embarrassed, but she felt sweet as well.
It was the first time that he kissed her like this after their marriage.
It made her feel cherished.
Conrad’s hand slipped to the back of her head as he gently held her, and he also kissed her softly, as if wanting to heal all the wounds inside her heart.
A long time passed before Fia eventually pushed him away as she felt it was getting harder to breathe.
“Still tastes bland, Fia?” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
She touched her slightly plump lips. “I don’t know what you’re saying.”
“Want more practice?” Conrad joked.
“You… Why are you so lecherous all of a sudden?” Fia said with a face red from embarrassment.
Conrad chuckled. “Then, do you still want to eat something spicy?”
“I’ll ask Mrs. Whitley to make some braised beef. No chili. How do steamed prawns sound to you?”
“Alright, alright!” She buried her face in the bed, her face and neck all red.
In the past, no matter how passionate he was, he would always act gentlemanly. He would let his guard down.
Then, she remembered what she read on the internet. If a man loved a woman, he would want to
fool around with that woman whenever and wherever.
‘So… Do you love me now?’ It was a question that she didn’t dare to ask. She was worried that he would hesitate.
“Conrad…” She muttered out his name.
“Hm?” Conrad had just given Mrs. Whitley a call when she realized her emotional state was a bit unstable.
She lay on the bed, her face buried in the sheets. However, she still couldn’t help but ask with a whimper, “Do you really love me?”
Conrad was stunned. He didn’t know how to answer that question.
They had too much in between them. He owed her too much… It was not something that words
such as “like” and “love” could be used to balance the book.
Once the dust had settled, he would give her everything that he owed her. Only then could he tell her that he loved her.
Fia waited for several seconds but didn’t hear a word, so she raised her head.
“Do you?”
“Fia, we’re husband and wife. I’ll never betray you,
Fia could feel the bitterness spread in her heart. His avoidance made her believe that he didn’t love her, but she couldn’t say it out loud.
He told her… that he loved her. He could love many things, but he could only truly love one person.
Who would be able to become his one true love in the end?
A knock came on the door.
Conrad quickly said, “Come in.”
The woman carefully opened the door and a head popped in.
“Mr.Maxwell, I… I’m here to visit Mrs. Maxwell.” Annie lowered her head and showed him the flowers and fruit basket, raising them high.
Conrad glared at her coldly. “No need!”
“Come in,” Fia said.
Annie stood at the door. She wasn’t sure if she should enter.
Fia then said, “She’s your staff. Isn’t it normal to visit me? The wife of her boss?”
When she remembered that she was Director Parker’s daughter and she looked up to Conrad, she wanted to see what she looked like.
Conrad frowned and looked at Annie in displeasure.
Annie lowered her head. She was just about to put the flowers and fruit basket by the door and leave.
However, Fia said, “Are you really Director Parker’s daughter?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Come here. Let’s have a chat.”
Annie looked at Fia with mixed feelings. When she remembered that she was her uncle’s illegitimate daughter, she felt depressed.
She didn’t want to come, but her father forced her to.
“Since you’re already here, why aren’t you bold enough to come in?” Fia asked softly.
