Conrad did not reply. He stood up and held Fia’s hand.
“Fia, I have something on, so we have to leave.”
Fia could feel that something must have happened and she obediently got up.
“Eileen, I wish you a safe trip, and return in glory.”
“Alright!” Eileen’s emotions were a little chaotic. Looking at her phone, she saw a couple of missed calls, all of them from Victor.
Conrad had left in a rush. Did something happen to Sapphire and
Victor?
Looking at the two people who had walked to the door of the VIP room, she immediately asked, “Did something happen?”
Conrad said faintly, “Ms. Reid, leave the country in peace.”
After he finished speaking, he held Fia’s hand and left the airport.
In the car, Fia asked, “What happened?”
Conrad swallowed hard. “Sapphire jumped out of Victor’s car.”
Fia’s eyes widened, Sapphire’s face appearing in her mind.
“She fought with Victor?”
“I should not have brought her over.” Conrad’s tone was a little heavy. “Sometimes the truth is very cruel.”
“It has nothing to do with you.” Fia could not bear seeing him feel guilty. “Sapphire herself wanted to see Eileen.”
Conrad held the steering wheel tightly and explained, “I did not tell your best friend earlier because I hope things will not become even
more chaotic.”
“Yes, indeed Eileen should not go over.”
Eileen did not feel at peace and could not hold back from returning
Victor’s call.
After ringing for a couple of seconds, just as she thought Victor would not pick up, she heard his low and hoarse voice.
“What’s the matter?”
His tone was a little cold.
It was like she had shown warm feelings but was met with cold
rebuke.
“Wasn’t it you who called first?”
Victor swallowed. “Dialed wrongly.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Eileen kept silent, her heart unsure. Originally, she wanted to ask him what was the matter, but his tone chilled her heart.
“Anything else? If not, I’m hanging up.”
“Victor!” In the end, Eileen could not keep to her own rules and spoke. “I am leaving the country.”
Victor clenched his phone tightly, raising his head to look at the light above the operating room.
He did not speak for a moment.
“When I leave this time, I won’t be back for at least a year!”
Victor looked at the light above the operating theater and recalled how Eileen had jumped off a building and how Sapphire had jumped
out of a car.
The two faces intertwined in his mind, like a knife twisting in his heart.
He had never thought of letting either one of them die.
It was the right decision for Eileen to choose to leave now.
Conrad was not wrong. Since he had made a decision, he should have the ability to withstand it.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Eileen’s voice was trembling slightly.
Victor closed his eyes, as he said cold and heartless words.
“Isn’t this call from Ms. Reid wishing me to send you off? Is it to send you off with the identity of your ex-boyfriend or ex-boss?”
Silence took over.
“Everyone knows that choosing Conrad is better than choosing me, a person abandoned by the Maxwell Corporation right from the start. Ms. Reid really has great methods, daring to get involved even with
her best friend’s husband.”
After he finished speaking, Victor smiled mockingly.
Eileen instantly hung up. Her tears were like broken pearls falling down. That kind of humiliation was killing her!
She should not have called him!

Conrad held Fia as they rushed to the operating theater and went straight to Victor.
“What happened!”
Victor got up and threw a fist
