Chapter 738
The man looked at Esme when she was almost in the car and mumbled, “She looks so much like Ms. Manning from
the back.”
Tiger’s eyes narrowed. “What did you call her?”
The man pointed at Esme, “She’s Ms. Manning, isn’t she? Wait, didn’t she die already? She died. I want to…”
The man suddenly shut up. He almost exposed his secret.
“Silas!” Tiger shouted.
Silas turned around and asked, “What is it?”
“Stop Miss Thomas!” Tiger roared.
Silas immediately pulled Esme out of the car without showing any sort of gentleness.
“What is it? Aren’t you letting me go?” Esme said in a scared tone.
Tiger then dragged the man over. He then grabbed the man by the back of his neck and pushed him right in front
of Esme.

The man looked at the face that had been molded into Britney’s through surgery and mumbled, “That’s so
strange… Why does she look like Ms. Manning from the back?”
“Ms. Manning?” Esme frowned as she retorted, “Not only is Fia getting emotionally unstable, you must also be
getting emotionally unstable too!”
“So fierce…” The man looked at Esme and mumbled, “That’s so similar to Ms. Manning too…”
Tiger and Silas exchanged a glance and decided to escort both of them to the police station to see what they had to
say.
Silas passed on the job of sending Hank and Beth back to the other bodyguards. Meanwhile, he drove the car while
Tiger watched over Esme and Elmo Moore.
When she was in the car, Esme began to get nervous again and she stopped being so arrogant.
She asked pitifully, “What is the meaning of this? Not even Mr. Maxwell mistreated me like this. Where are you
taking me?”
She didn’t dare to look at Elmo, who was on the other side of the car. However, Elmo kept on staring at her.
Tiger sat in between the two of them with his arms folded and then said coldly, “This thief is involved in a lot of
things. From the looks of it, he even knows you, Miss Thomas. I’m afraid you’ll have to come with us to the station.”
Esme argued, “I didn’t break any laws! What right do you have to take me to the police station?!”
Tiger said, “You didn’t break any laws, yes. But as a citizen of this country, you have the duty to cooperate with an
investigation.”
Meanwhile, Conrad carefully tiptoed into the bedroom. However, when he didn’t see Fia, his chest tightened as he
yelled out, “Fia!”
“I’m here!”
The voice came from the washroom.
Conrad quickly opened the washroom door only to see Fia standing there nervously, holding something in her hand.
Conrad quickly walked over and saw what she was holding.
It was a pregnancy test stick.
He couldn’t help being nervous and carefully asked, “What is it, Fia?”
“I… I felt that there was some pain coming from near my chest. I checked online and it said that I might be

Conrad went over and looked at the test stick in her hand. One of the lines was very clear, but there was another
line that was extremely faint. It was so faint that it could be easily missed.
“Honey, does this mean I’m pregnant?” she asked numbly.
Conrad knew that she had been very nervous about getting pregnant.
She was worried that she might get it wrong if she were to jump to conclusions too quickly.
He put the pregnancy stick aside and led her to the sink. He then held her hand to the automatic water tap and
gently washed her hands.
“Don’t be so nervous. I’ll take you to the hospital for a checkup first.”
Fia nodded. She wasn’t sure what kind of feeling she had at the moment.
“Are you cold?” Conrad asked as he held her hands.
“No, I’m not,” Fia said as she sniffed. “I’m getting a bit nervous, and my chest hurts more too.”
When Conrad heard about it, he frowned and gently rubbed her chest.
“Is it very painful?”
“A bit. It’s also uncomfortable, and I feel bloated,” Fia whispered. Conrad quickly picked her up like a princess and
ran downstairs.
