Chapter 204 Conrad’s Ploy
As both mental and physical pain enveloped Tiffany, she could only repeat Thomas’ words in her head.
‘Your uterine walls are thinner than normal ones. The doctor had said that after this, you’ll never get pregnant again!’
She had ascended to the peak in one day and fell into the darkest abyss the next.
This rise and fall made Tiffany feel as if her whole life was just a joke.
Even though the pain was ripping at her inside out, she had trained herself painstakingly all these years only to live a more lavish life and to become the center of everyone’s attention.
Alas, all it took was but a moment for her to fall from grace, as she did not have any room to even resist.
Matthew Kings. That man… That man is just a devil in disguise.
The pain had left her weak all over. Even though Tiffany felt that she was losing blood all over the place, she still climbed up strugglingly and walked one step at a time toward the villa.
I cannot die here!
I need to live on. I must live on!
I will return the pain that I received today a hundredfold to those two snakes, Matthew and Veronica!
She had decided that since Matthew had refused her right to be a mother, she would also never let Veronica have another child in this life!
I will never allow that to happen!
Taking a few steps forward, Tiffany felt her vision go dark as she fell backward…
However, before she felt the sensation of crashing to the ground, she fell into a person’s embrace.
At the last moment, she caught a glimpse of the person and was shocked to find out that it was none other than Conrad.
“M-Mr. Conrad. It’s you?”
She fainted right after uttering that.
…
Waking up, Tiffany found herself lying in a ward upon opening her eyes.
“You’re finally awake.”
Conrad saw Tiffany regain her consciousness and stated that.
Tilting her head, Tiffany looked at Conrad, who was sitting beside her. “Thank you for saving me, Mr. Conrad.”
“I was investigating the incident at yesterday’s wedding. After discovering that your call wouldn’t connect, I went to your house in hopes of finding you. Then, I found you fainting.”
Up to that point, Conrad then frowned hesitatingly. “Why did you…”
“I’m ashamed to have let you see that.”
The conversation made Tiffany suddenly cry uncontrollably.
She looked very pitiful.
This made Conrad reach out and touch her face, wiping her tears away with his thumbs gently. “Women should learn how to cherish themselves. Matthew wasn’t meant for you. You should give up on this foolish thought.”
When one was in total despair, the smallest act of kindness given by others would seem like a saving grace.
Tiffany felt this gentleness from Conrad, as a thought came to her, when she looked at him with teary eyes.
If I can’t be Matthew’s woman, I can be his aunt!
“Thank you, Mr. Conrad. Sob…” She cried even sadder in an attempt to gain more pity from Conrad.
Yet, she did not know that Conrad had gone to the villa to search for Tiffany, only to observe the situation for a while. He had seen Thomas dragging her out of the car.
It was not until she entered the villa that Conrad got out of the car and went ahead to hold her.
As for why he would appear at such an opportune moment in front of the villa’s entrance, it was naturally because he had gotten a tip and had been waiting for Tiffany’s appearance.
I might be able to use this woman!
…
After sleeping through the entire morning, Veronica woke up feeling refreshed.
She was very calm and collected, as she did not know the chaos that happened without her.
The afternoon came when she received a call from her secretary. “Miss Murphy, two customers came by just now and asked about our wedding package. They also wanted to know if we could give them any promotions. Since I thought that we were in need of customers, I went ahead and gave them the biggest discount possible.”
“Really? Have they paid the deposit?”
“Yup. They paid us ten thousand upfront. The customers had estimated their budget to be around two hundred thousand. This is no small deal by any means.”
“That’s great!”
Veronica felt her mood lifting.
Nonetheless, she noticed this sudden influx of business might be due to someone helping her in the dark.
