Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498

Why was she still standing there unbothered? How could Conrad still bring her to work as if nothing had happened? 

Why? How?! 

Meanwhile, Fia asked softly, “Miss Parker, would it be alright for me to join you all for lunch?” 

“Of course! We welcome Mrs. Maxwell with open arms!” The other girls agreed before Annie was able to react at all. 

Annie began cursing Fia deep in her heart despite the great amount of etiquette lessons she took in her youth. 

“Miss Parker, I hope it’s alright with you,” Fia asked Annie again 

with a soft voice. 

“Of course! Welcome!” Annie forced up a smile. 

Fia responded with a bright smile before facing Conrad and poking at his waist, “Conrad, they agreed to allow me to join them for lunch. Would you kindly give me permission?” 

“No!” Conrad glared at Annie and her colleagues. There was no way he could relax leaving Fia in their hands. 

“Conrad!” Fia hugged Conrad’s arm, flirting with her husband in front of the girls. 

“Please? I did not have enough to eat at home earlier. I want to join them.” 

Conrad knew what she had in mind. Having lunch with the girls was just an excuse. The more likely reason was that Fia wanted 

to talk to Annie face–to–face.

“Conrad, please let me go with them. It’s such a rare occasion. 

Please?”

Fia’s sweet, flirty voice and her exquisite beauty was a superb combo onto Conrad’s psyche, as though they were gradually mellowing the core of his bones. 

“Fine. But I’ll come with you.” 

“No, you can’t join us. If you join us, the girls will be so scared 

that they won’t have lunch properly. Besides, you’re the boss of al mega corporation. Sitting together with all these beautiful girls… what would others think of you?” Fia put on an angry face. 

Conrad sighed and decided to concede. “I’ll escort you to the 

restaurant.” 

“Okay!” 

Conrad sent Fia to a restaurant near his company, and ordered Tiger to keep an eye on her. 

“Mrs. Maxwell, what would you like to drink?” 

“Do you want tea? Or some milk tea?” 

“Perhaps, a cup of coffee?” 

“Would you like some sugar in the coffee?” 

After they settled in their seats, the girls began to pester Fia with caring questions. 

Although she was anxious, Fia did her best to maintain a calm and collected look. “Just plain water will do. Thank you.” 

This was the first time she got to act in such a high–profile role since the first day of her marriage with Conrad. 

It had been minutes since they sat down, but there was no word
