Chapter 635

Conrad couldn’t even tell, and he had been involved in the situation, yet Silas, who was an outsider, could?

“I know you have deep feelings for Sir, but since he’s involved in the situation, he couldn’t understand.”

Fia frowned and instinctively retorted, “My feelings for him aren’t what you think they are. At first, I only respected him as an elder sibling. But when two people come together, they can’t remain as a resentful couple, so I convinced myself.”

Silas was silent. Fine. She wouldn’t admit it! Anyway, he had long ago figured out that Fia liked Conrad and had thought so shortly after the two married. Because Conrad had mistreated Fia in matters of the heart and because Fia didn’t want to be exposed, he remained silent.

“I’m going to sleep for a bit,” Fia said. She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, not wanting Silas to say anything else that would scare her.

Fia never thought telling Conrad about her secret love for him all these years would bring her the happiness she wanted. She wanted pure love, and she would never reveal her innermost secret just to hold onto him.

In the office, Fia asked Silas to run an errand for her before making a call to the Foreign Affairs Department.

“Did Director Thomas come today?”

“Yes, she did.”

Without giving the person on the other end of the line a chance to say anything else, Fia continued, “Could you please have her come to the CEO’s office?”
