Chapter 554
Conrad knew that she hesitated because of her silence.
He put a hand behind her back and stroked, trying to find an excuse for her.
“Let’s not be so hasty. I’m not sure either, so let’s wait here for another two days?”
She nodded and buried herself in his arms.
Conrad put her back in bed, pulled her blanket carefully, and stared into her eyes.
Their eyes didn’t meet and Fia simply closed her eyes.
Conrad stared at her as he became even more suspicious.
Fia then said, “Let me sleep.”
“Wait, I’ll apply some medicine first.”
Conrad carefully moved her hair away with the medicine in hand and saw her gently trembling eyes.
-After looking at her for two seconds, he sprayed the medicine on her head.

“Alright.” She placed her hands on the blanket, her face beautiful but cold.
Despite being at the age where she was supposed to be full of vigor, she looked so depressed.
Conrad couldn’t help holding her two hands with his.
“If you’re worried that you’ll get disturbed, let’s go home then.”
Fia simply closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep and said nothing..
Conrad didn’t continue that topic and said, “Don’t worry about Mrs. Whitley. She’s not that heavily injured.
“She grazed her elbow, and it was just a minor injury. She already went home after cleaning her wound.
“What do you want to eat? I’ll call her and let her know,” he mumbled, seemingly speaking to himself. However, he
knew that Fia could hear him.
Fia couldn’t continue pretending to be asleep, but she still didn’t want to open her eyes. She wouldn’t be exposed to
others that easily that way.
She then said, “She’s already hurt, so don’t ask her to cook. We can just buy something.”
Conrad looked at her long eyelashes and something flashed in his mind. “You can see now, can’t you?”
Fia frowned and said nothing.
Conrad gulped. “Do you want me to ask an ophthalmologist to take a look?”
Fia frowned even deeper.
How did he notice it?
Conrad didn’t notice it originally. He only noticed it when he turned around and saw her eavesdropping by the wall.
Although she couldn’t see but could do a lot of things just by routine and practice, it was
impossible for her to be able to get out of the hospital bed and walk to the door without making any sound.
Most importantly, from him picking up Mrs. Whitley’s call to the hospital, he had seen her multiple times and she
would always avoid his eyes.
He didn’t suspect it the first few times, but he was sure of it now.
What he couldn’t understand was why she didn’t tell him.
After holding it back, he couldn’t wait anymore and asked her about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFia suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Conrad numbly.
Her eyes seemed to have been restored, bright and attractive. But something seemed to be different too.
She said, “Too soon.”
Conrad frowned and didn’t speak, waiting for her to finish.
“I don’t want to be able to see just yet. I don’t want to see those people.”
Before Conrad got there, she was stunned when Mrs. Whitley helped her out of the surgery room.
Conall’s wife, Joy, his secretary, and his assistants were all there. They looked at her coldly and angrily.
She didn’t do anything! What right did they have looking at her like that?!
Conall pushed her away and was run over by the bike. She didn’t ask him to do that at all!
The way they looked at her made her detest them!
She didn’t want to look into those eyes the moment she opened hers.
That was why she never told Conrad that she could already see a little. All she could do was take her medicine,
praying that the world would become clear for her.
The first person she wanted to see was Conrad. To happily tell him about it and share it with him. To see his happy
face.
