Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481 

Eileen’s skin was silky smooth and felt like the best satin Victor had ever touched. Did that also no longer belong to him? 

Why couldn’t she understand that his marriage was only a way to gain fame, and there were no feelings involved? 

He had come this far with his own effort and hard work. How could he cut his career short for her? 

“Sapphire? Why are you here alone? Where’s Victor?” Sapphire’s parents asked when they saw her returning alone. 

“He’s busy at work.” 

Mr. Starling frowned. “Is he so busy that he doesn’t have time for a meal?” 

“Dad, Victor already said he’ll eat with you two tomorrow,” Sapphire said as she stepped forward to take her father’s arm. “Also… I wanted to ask about the land in the northern suburbs for Victor. Could he 

have it?” 

Mr. Starling glared at his daughter. “You come home for dinner just to ask me about work?” 

Mrs. Starling scolded her husband, “Victor is Sapphire’s husband, and he’s practically our son! What’s wrong with giving them some 

information?” 

Mr. Starling pulled Sapphire to sit and said seriously, “Victor is not the only one looking at that particular land. Several other large 

companies also have their eyes on it.” 

“Then, what should we do? Dad, you know a lot of people, don’t you? 

Can’t you help him?” 

Mrs. Starling was also looking at her husband expectantly. 

Mr. Starling frowned. “Ask Victor to come for dinner tomorrow. I’ll invite the National Land Office’s director over and we can all talk.” 

“Thanks, Dad!” 

“Don’t thank me yet. I can’t guarantee anything, and this is all I can tell you. By the way, Maxwell Corporation is also one of the companies inquiring about the land.” 

Mr. Starling had a grave expression, but he was also confused. “Didn’t you mention that the Maxwells prevented the two brothers from fighting over businesses? Victor had his eyes on the land in the northern suburbs first, so why is Conrad interfering now?” 

Sapphire grew concerned at that and said, “Recently, Victor provoked 

Conrad.” 

Thinking of Conrad’s foul temper, Mr. Starling said seriously, “You should talk to Victor more. If he wants to start his business from scratch, the one person he shouldn’t offend is Conrad!” 

“Yes. I will speak to him.” 

“Alas… Your aunt is unpredictable, and now that Conrad has gotten offended, it would be bad if I went looking for him. Since you have nothing much to do at home most of the time, perhaps you should visit Conrad’s residence.” 

“I got it,” Sapphire replied good-naturedly, but she felt a little annoyed on the inside. She knew she had no say at all in front of Conrad. 

The mention of Conrad reminded her of Fia. Perhaps she could start with the woman. 

After a quick dinner with her parents, Sapphire asked her family driver to drop her at Conrad’s mansion. 

“Sapphire?” 

When Fia heard Mrs. Whitley inform her that Sapphire was here again, she was in disbelief. 

Now, the woman sat opposite her, and Fia narrowed her eyes at her. 

“Did you need something?” 

Sapphire rubbed her hands together, hesitating to speak before finally asking, “Where’s Conrad?” 

“He’s in the study upstairs. If you want to see him, I’ll ask Mrs. Whitley to call him down.” 

“No, I’m not here to see him. I was looking for you,” Sapphire said. 

The more she talked, the more embarrassed she felt. Sapphire was the only daughter of her family. She had always been pampered and never had to beg for anything she wanted. 

Now, she couldn’t care less about her dignity if it was for Victor’s
