Chapter 1170
“I’ve always been suspicious of my brother. I’d find ways to follow him, but he only went to the laboratory and didn’t meet anyone suspicious.”
Sally muttered to herself with her head lowered, her emotions a mess.
Fia’s eyes reddened. She did not realize that Sally had been waiting for her all these years.
She had only known Sally for a short time and did not think that she would have that much of an impact
on her.
She had not expected Sally to be just like Eileen, always thinking of her.
“Mommy, Adrian must be getting anxious.” Irene shook Fia’s arm. “Let’s go.”
“Alright.” Fia looked at Sally a bit longer. “Take care and accept my condolences.”
Sally wiped away her tears and watched her back. It was so similar to Fia’s, yet their personalities were nothing alike.
Back in her office, she called her older brother, Peter.
“Pete, tell me honestly. Did Fia really die?”
“Yes.” Peter pressed frowned. “She’s a dead person, and she’s not one of your parents. Why do you keep thinking about her?”
“But her body exploded when it was put in the mortuary. There were no remains left. Don’t you find that suspicious?!” Sally’s emotions were getting out of control. “Brother, did you guys do something?”
“I’ve told you so many times. Her body exploded because Conrad offended too many people. It was meant to make things difficult for Conrad!” Peter’s tone turned stern. “He lost his memory, but why are all of you acting like maniacs?”
His sister, Jason, and Eileen hadn’t stopped tracking and investigating him, all trying to find out if Fia did or didn’t die.
But the person his master wanted was not someone he could get close to, even if he was willing.
He couldn’t sacrifice himself and his family’s peace to fulfill their longing.
Sally cried as she said, “Pete, I just saw someone. Her silhouette looked like Fla’s, and her voice sounded the same.”
Peter’s nerves tensed. “You’re just missing her too much. You see everyone as her.”
“But she doesn’t look like Fia. Fia was a gentle and kind girl, but she’s so cold, so very cold.” Sally wiped her tears. “Pete, I don’t want to work in this hospital anymore. I want to go abroad.”
“What are you thinking? Mom and Dad are getting old. What will they do if you go abroad?” Peter strongly opposed his sister going abroad. He was worried about her being alone in a foreign country.
“Sally, the world abroad is chaotic. You’ll face a lot of dangers as a girl.”
“Pete, I’m just saying that. I know Mom and Dad are getting old, and I can’t be wilful.” Sally sighed. “You also know that Mom and Dad are getting old. So, when are you and Britney going to get married?”
Peter fell silent.
Ever since Britney’s identity was restored five years ago, and despite her choosing to forgive him, he couldn’t raise his head in front of her.
Every time he saw her, he felt guilty. For five years, he would provide for her whatever she wanted, but it was all limited to material things.
“Pete, you’re not young anymore. In a few more years, you’ll be forty,” Sally advised. “Britney really cares about you. As long as you put your heart into it, you two can have a good life together.”
“Can we?” Peter sneered. “Don’t you think she lost her heart, living like a zombie?”
“That’s because you haven’t given her genuine love,” Sally said.
“Love?” Peter gave a bitter smile. “I don’t even know what love is anymore. How can I give it to her? Besides repenting and treating her like a sister, what else can I do?”
“Pete, actually Britney is a very simple girl. Even if you did those things to her, she still loves you. She still hasn’t…”
“Sally, stop talking about this. You haven’t experienced anything like this, so you wouldn’t understand!” Peter was getting annoyed.
“Fine, then I’ll hang up.” Sally was getting frustrated as well and took the initiative to hang up the phone. She could only watch her brother and Britney be entangled in such a complicated mess. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
On the surface, the both of them looked like a couple with a very good relationship.
However, in reality, it was torture, and they were wasting each other’s energy.
“Mommy, do you know that Miss Doctor?”
After getting into the car, Irene asked out of curiosity.
Fia smiled and took a look at the driver of the car she rented and said by Irene’s ears. “Baby, you lost too much blood. Now is not the right time to talk. Why don’t you rest in Mommy’s embrace for a bit?”
Irene sighed childishly. “But I’m not sleepy.”
