Chapter 483
Sapphire frowned and looked as if she had been slapped in the face.
Fia realized what Conrad meant and tugged on his sleeve, hoping he would understand why she did and stop.
Despite that, Conrad was determined to wake Sapphire up.
“When you have dinner together, does Victor help to serve you the food? Does he cut up the meat for you? Place
food on your plate? Do you wash up together in the morning? Does he help squeeze toothpaste and hand you a
towel?”
Sapphire looked embarrassed, and she struggled to argue, “I can use my own hands and feet! Unlike Fia, who can’t
see!”
Conrad laughed mockingly.
“Then, I’ll just have to be blunt… Even when I had just married Fia and didn’t have such feelings for her then, I
already did all those things. Because I always remember that I’m her husband, and those are my responsibilities.”
Sapphire clenched her fist tightly, then she leaned forward suddenly, her hand gripping the sides of the couch to
support herself as she hissed, “If you really treat her so well, why did you ask for a divorce when Esme came back,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthmm?”
“Because I didn’t want to be a husband who would do the wrong things to his wife! Although everything was
messed up after that, I always remembered that I was Fia’s husband.”
The victorious glint in Sapphire’s eyes died, and it was obvious she was finding it difficult to accept this reality.
“So you’re trying to say… Victor doesn’t love me at all, is that it? He doesn’t want to be my husband, is that it?!”
Just as Conrad was about to reply, Fia shoved a few cherries into his
mouth.
“Sapphire, you know best how your marriage to Victor really is. What will happen in the future is also up to you. As
for whether he can get the land in the northern suburbs, that’s his own business.”
Fia didn’t want Conrad to say anything else that would cause Sapphire to get even more worked up and wanted to
cut this
conversation short.
Sapphire watched as Fia grabbed Conrad’s arm, and the two sat
beside each other. They were so close that they almost seemed like
Siamese twins.
On the contrary, she and Victor…
GRAN
That’s right… Conrad did ask her if she had received such care from
Victor before.
But… Sapphire had seen the interaction between Victor and Eileen before. When they were eating together, Victor
would put food on Eileen’s plate and help her cut the food into smaller pieces.
It wasn’t that men didn’t have tenderness and care in them. It simply depended if they cared enough about the
person to want to do it for
them.
“Then… why would he marry me?” Sapphire whispered, both hands coming up to her head and racking it through
her hair.
Her eyes and voice were both filled with pain.
A trace of coldness flashed in Conrad’s eyes before he said, “It’s because your father is deputy director of the
National Land Office, and your family’s company, Jade Corporation, is a prestigious company in Gryphon. Your
mother’s natal family is also nothing to scoff at, and all the things I’ve mentioned are benefits to him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConrad paused before ruthlessly saying, “More importantly is that you and I are related. He thought that if he
married you, I wouldn’t go against him for the sake of the relationship between us.”
“Then why are you fighting over the land?!” Sapphire asked hoarsely.
Annoyance flashed in Fia’s dull eyes. No matter how emotional she got, she would never force someone else to do
something for Conrad’s sake.
Conrad was also annoyed, and he glanced at Fia before deciding he would be honest and not hide anything.
“On the day of your wedding, he went to Ms. Reid’s apartment, which forced her to jump off the building!”
Fía and Sapphire were both stunned.
“W-what did you say?” Fia stammered. “Didn’t you all tell me that Eileen fell down by accident? Eileen also said
so…!”
Fia was dumbfounded, but she quickly understood what had happened. It was no wonder she hadn’t known that
Eileen had been admitted to the hospital.
It was because all of them had kept it from her.
Eileen had also lied to her afterward, próbably because she was
worried that Fia would be upset and concerned.
Sapphire’s face was red. She had naturally known about Eileen’s fall as the press had reported about the incident
when it happened.
