Chapter 649
“But you’re Felicity’s father, Uncle Conall! Don’t you think you’re…”
“Get out!” Conall, for the first time in his life, felt so disgusted by his niece.
How dare she make him choose between them and Fia! If he must make a choice, he would only choose Fia! Fia,
that poor child had been through so much!
Meanwhile, Fia’s ill fortune was still ongoing. It was true that the more one did not want to see a certain person, the
more they would bump into them.
As Fia and Tiger were in the elevator, the elevator stopped midway at one of the levels and in walked Britney. Fia
and Tiger frowned as they saw her.
“Good day, Sis Fia,” Britney greeted.
Fia scanned her for a while before answering, “Don’t call me sis. Even though you’re younger than me, I have a
hunch that you’re actually older than me.”

A conflicted look crawled onto Britney’s face. Recently, Barbara had been questioning her a lot about whether she
still had feelings for Peter, or whether she had already fallen for someone
else.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wanted to admit that she had fallen for someone else. But, Peter had arrived in the nick of
time.
She did not dare to say that in front of Peter. In fact, there was no way she could say it either. These days, she had
been thinking. If Barbara was not willing to get her hands dirty for the Thomas’ company,
then she did not mind doing it herself!
When the company grew strong enough, she would also climb higher in status in the world of socialites. When that
happened, Peter’s status would be too low for him to woo her. Then, her chance to get close to Conrad openly
would come!
Fia’s stop was on the next level. She coldly stared at Britney, who was lowering her head. She looked like she was
plotting something.
When the elevator arrived at her level, Fia stepped out. After a brief consideration, Britney followed her out too.
“Sis Fia, I think you and Mr. Maxwell had misunderstood me. I truly have no ill intention toward any of you.”
“Miss Thomas, please step away.” Tiger stood in front of Britney, “I must insist that you stay away from Mr.
Maxwell’s ward.”
After saying this sternly, Tiger pushed Britney into the elevator and pressed the “close”
button, sending her away with the elevator!
Hearing the happenings behind, Fia turned and looked at her bodyguard.
Seeing that she was looking at him, Tiger asked dim-wittedly, “Your orders, madam?”
“Tiger, are you this heartless and cold toward every woman?”
Tiger rubbed his nose and answered, “But isn’t Mr. Maxwell like this too?”
“That dear Mr. Maxwell of yours is already married. But you don’t even have a girlfriend.” Fia looked worried, “Even
Silas has a girlfriend. Tiger, perhaps it’s time you think for yourself too. Don’t walk around with that poker face
anymore, or else you’ll scare off your future wife, you know?”
Tiger was stunned, “But I don’t intend to find a girlfriend!”
Fia raised an eyebrow and smiled, “So, you plan to become a monk?”
“No. My duty is to protect Mr. Maxwell, to serve him all my life!”
“No, there’s no need for that.” Fia turned and walked toward Conrad’s room, ‘I don’t think
Mr. Maxwell would want you to marry to your work and be lonesome all your life either.”
Tiger replied earnestly, “It’s not all bad being single, madam. If I’ve got a family, I’d be tied down. If I’m tied down, I
can’t serve Sir with all my being. Silas is too playful and lighthearted.
a man. So, it’s up to me to be the more stable and steady servant.”

Fia was speechless.
‘Sigh. Fine, so be it. Perhaps it was not time yet after all.’ Once he met his fated one, Fiat believed that Tiger, no
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmatter how stubborn he was, would fall right under her spell without anyone interfering!
Conrad leaned next to the door of his ward, listening to his wife chatting with his employee. A gloomy scowl
appeared on his face.
Sensing a sharp murderous intent, Tiger raised his head and saw his boss’s glare. He quickly cowered and rushed
into the ward like a scaredy-cat.
Conrad extended his leg in front of Tiger, tripping him.
“Just what are you doing?!” Fia saw everything.
“Heh, serves him right.” Conrad did not feel any guilt at all.
Tiger rubbed his nose as he stood up. “No, madam. It’s my fault. I did not see Mr. Maxwell’s leg and it was me who
tripped. It’s not Mr. Maxwell’s fault.”

Fia did not understand why Conrad’s men were so loyal to him despite him being so moody.
After handling the hospital paperwork, Silas arrived in the nick of time to see Tiger tripping.
He quickly told Tiger, “Tiger, you go pack up the luggage. I’ll send Sir and Madam home.” “Affirmative.” Tiger
rubbed off the blood on his nose pitifully.
