Chapter 208: Chapter 208

Conrad Sterling never expected that Pop could stay quietly in his office for a whole morning. No fussing, no noise, and no need for adults to take care of her; the little munchkin played by herself and didn’t even interrupt his work.

It completely shattered Conrad Sterling’s perception that toddlers are noise-making creatures!

To reward the little munchkin, Conrad Sterling specially asked Granny Chandler to bring over some delicious children’s meals.

Generally speaking, Pop never worries about eating; she’s not picky like some other kids.

This "some other kids" probably specifically refers to Conrad Sterling in Granny Chandler and the Sterling Residence cooks’ eyes.

The little munchkin held her spoon, scooping a big spoonful of shrimp fried rice.

Unfortunately, her grip was too weak, she couldn’t hold the spoon steady, spilling more than half before it reached her mouth. At the mouth, another small portion was smeared, so only a couple grains made it in.

Conrad Sterling was initially focused on work, not planning to eat.

He looked up to see the little munchkin making a mess on the table and around her mouth, the man reluctantly stood up from his chair.

But he also had no experience feeding a child; he scooped a big spoonful and fed it to Pop, half of the rice exceeded Pop’s little mouth and was blocked outside, falling onto her body.

The little munchkin looked up at him blankly, Conrad Sterling pretended to be calm: "No worries, I’ll have Granny Chandler send you new clothes right away."

Conrad Sterling clumsily fed Pop another spoonful of fried rice, then his phone rang.

He freed one hand to check the message, and a photo instantly popped up on the phone screen.

The photo was clearly taken in a café, starring Anna Thornton and a man sitting opposite her.

Pop pointed at his phone, looked up only to see daddy’s face suddenly turned dark.

The photo album contained more than ten images, depicting Anna Thornton’s lively interactions with someone in the café.

Crying and laughing, the man even seemed to help her wipe away tears...

Conrad Sterling reviewed the last photo, smiling in anger.

These photos came from an anonymous number; besides wanting him to see Anna Thornton’s meeting with another man, the sender also provided the café’s precise address, with a note: [Go now, just in time to catch the cheaters!]

Conrad Sterling’s lips curled in a sneer, hiding in the shadows to send these, thinking they could lead him around by the nose?

But after putting down the phone, Conrad Sterling withdrew the third spoonful of rice before feeding Pop.

The little munchkin was waiting with her mouth wide open, only to hear daddy say: "Let’s eat somewhere else; we’ll go find your mom first!"

Conrad Sterling denied that Anna Thornton’s affairs could make him restless, and he didn’t believe he was being led on.

He just disliked someone secretly causing trouble, preferring to see for himself!

Coincidentally, the café wasn’t far away.

It’s only about a ten-minute drive from Conrad Sterling’s company.

Conrad Sterling even directed Ethan to drive like a rocket, arriving in five minutes.

Ethan did not know what happened, only sensing that President Sterling’s aura seemed murderous when getting off the car.

Conrad Sterling didn’t take Pop along; if he truly saw Anna Thornton meeting a man in the café, the scene afterwards might frighten the child.

Everyone knew his temper was bad; even when unprovoked, Conrad Sterling’s face was dark enough.

Especially when cuckolded?

If Conrad Sterling’s past anger was compared to a storm, now it was akin to a warning before a level ten tsunami!

Even the café employees seemed to sense danger, intimidated by Conrad Sterling’s aura, no one dared approach. Chapters fırst released on novèlfire.net

The man in a black suit with a tense expression passed, the pedestrians retreated three steps.

At his first glance entering the café, Conrad Sterling locked eyes on Anna Thornton.

He quickly approached, abruptly pulling the leisurely coffee-stirring woman from her chair.

Anna Thornton was startled by the sudden commotion, exclaiming that she felt a chill down her spine just earlier?

Indeed, one shouldn’t do guilty things during the day!

"Conrad Sterling, what a coincidence? Are you here for coffee, or did you come specially for me?" Anna Thornton asked him.

Conrad Sterling didn’t answer, his gaze shifting from Anna Thornton to Mary sitting opposite her: "Has it only been you two all this time?"

"Yes, President Sterling, I invited Anna for coffee to discuss the arrangements following the movie shoot’s completion."

Conrad Sterling glanced at the nearly empty coffee cup in front of Mary.

But he still recognized it as American style.

"Didn’t expect you kind of coffee?" Conrad Sterling asked Mary.

"Uh...I recently feel a bit fat, so I dare not add sugar to coffee. Heard from experienced people that this iced American style is best for slimming."

Mary said while voluntarily finishing the last sip of coffee.

Her eyebrows furrowed from the bitterness, yet placing the cup down under Conrad Sterling’s scrutinizing gaze, Mary still feigned composure: "I drank two cups of American style while chatting with Anna; President Sterling, does my face look a bit slimmer?"

Conrad Sterling couldn’t care less, his gaze returned to Anna Thornton: "You rushed out, leaving the child unattended, not answering calls, don’t tell me you did it just to chat with your agent here? Can’t the house accommodate you anymore?"

What’s going on now, usually it’s women complaining about husband’s post-marriage changes, not tender enough, not attentive enough...

Yet listening to President Sterling, Mary felt he sounded like the one being neglected?

She felt guilty lying to President Sterling, always feeling his eyes could see through everything. Even having him gaze at her was nerve-wracking enough; besides Anna Thornton, who dared boast of deceiving the celestial President Sterling?

Truthfully, Mary didn’t even know whose leftover coffee she drank.

She was temporarily called over as well, realizing President Sterling might truly be here to catch a cheater considering his aggressive stance.

Seeing Conrad Sterling seemingly unconvinced by her fabricated story, already dragging Anna Thornton with her bag outside.

Worried about potential incidents, Mary followed them.

Conrad Sterling stuffed Anna Thornton into the car, chased Ethan and Pop out to play for a while, blocking Mary outside the car.

Now only Conrad Sterling and Anna Thornton remained in the car; the former straightforwardly showed her the phone photos, questioning: "Are you dissatisfied with marrying me, that you urgently seek a new target?"

Anna Thornton realized she was secretly photographed but wasn’t embarrassed by exposed lies: "That man chatted me up; we just casually chatted a bit. The photos were anonymously sent to you; it’s clear someone intends to frame me, President Sterling, with your intelligence, you won’t be fooled, right?"

Conrad Sterling now didn’t care who sent the photos; he only wanted to know: "What topic caused you to fake cry and laugh?"

Indeed, from the photos, Conrad Sterling pinpointed Anna Thornton’s face had ’fake’ written all over it.

Anna Thornton’s acting skills were excellent but couldn’t outmatch Conrad Sterling’s understanding of her.

This woman had many facets, but the most genuine one was undoubtedly the strongest; she wouldn’t easily reveal her vulnerability before others.

Whenever Anna Thornton wore her fake mask, it meant...she was flirting with the man opposite!

"Anna Thornton, are you courting death?!"

In the past it was nothing, but now since Conrad Sterling had married her.

"Dare to cuckold me, and I’ll let you know how to write the ’miserable’ in ’die miserably’!"

Threatened by Conrad Sterling, Anna Thornton was somewhat curious: "How to write it?"

"By having me...screw...you to death!"
