Peter furrowed his brows as soon as he heard this. He recognized that cold, indifferent voice. Conrad leaned back on his black high back chair, gripping his phone as he spun his pen. “About those rumors about me, my wife, and my company, aren’t you going to do something about it, Mr. Hall?”
“She’s in
“Yes.”
your
hands?!” Peter’s face turned grim when he realized what was going on.
“What are you doing?!” Peter said anxiously, “She’s weak and frail right now! She needs proper medical attention at the hospital!”
“Heh! Let me remind you, Mr. Hall. You drew the first blood.” After finishing his words, Conrad immediately hung up.
Peter was furious and agitated at the matter at hand. He could not get through Esme’s phone so he could not get her phone’s location. He wanted to rush to Maxwell Corporation to get her back but there was no way he could manage it alone!

Besides, there was something important to do right now. He could not hold the conference without Esme. So he had to relent and postpone his plan, asking the keyboard warriors that he had hired to stop their defamation online.
A moment later, a piece of powerful, solid evidence suddenly appeared on the internet. It was an unedited video footage of Esme disliking the necklace and Fia only purchasing it after the former put it aside. When she saw that Fia wanted the necklace, Esme changed her mind and insisted that the necklace belonged to her since she saw it first.
Then there was another unedited video footage that showed how Esme fell down the escalator. The footage was purposely slowed down a notch so it would play frame by frame, showing everyone clearly how it all happened.
Anyone with some brain cells would be able to see that Esme fell after losing her balance and that no one had pushed her.
Watching the footage, Peter could sense that Esme did it on purpose.
“You b*tch!”
Peter was so pissed that he wanted to choke her to death in that instant! He had felt so sorry and sad for her yet it turned out that she was actually scheming against him?!
“So you want to push me away and glue yourself to Conrad Maxwell?! Fine!” Peter said to himself in an eerie voice, “I’ll make you regret dearly for that!”
Meanwhile, the Parkers were having a meal at their home.
Finn and Annie had returned to their home from Gryphon City. When Conall asked them about Fia, Annie spoke before Finn could say a word. “Fia’s doing great! She is basically living like a queen these days.”
Finn kicked Annie’s leg under the table and chastised, “Shut up!”
“But I’m telling the truth! She got married so young and does not have a proper job. All she has is a super husband that can do anything for her. She is set for life! Aw geez! I take it back. She’s living a life much more extravagant than a queen’s!”
Finishing her sentence, Annie looked at Felicity. “Am I right, cousin?”
Felicity did not want to say anything. However, upon hearing this, she had to put down her fork and said, “Dad had looked into it. The new jewelry designer in Maxwell Corporation is Fia. Her newly designed jewelry had broken Maxwell Corporation’s sales record recently.”
“That’s not impressive at all. It’s not her doing. This is all thanks to Conrad and Maxwell Corporation! She can’t possibly achieve these all by herself,” Annie retorted dejectedly. Glaring at Annie, Felicity felt a tinge of anger. “Annie, you should stop daydreaming and dedicate your time to your job.”
“Daydreaming? How could you say that? We basically grew up together. How can you defend an outsider like her!”
“Shut up!” Conall slammed on the table and yelled, “Fia is no outsider! She is your cousin
too!”
