Stop It, She’s Remarrying! Chapter 41
“What?” Fia felt her heart thumping when she saw his deep set eyes.Did he notice the medicine that she hid in her bag?Did he search for her bag when he went up to the room to search for things?That shouldn’t be it. He respected her privacy and would never search her belongings.“Why didn’t you tell me?”“Tell you what?”Fia could feel her heartbeat speed up. Did he really see the medicine in her bag?“My mother might have forced you to eat medicine in the past two years, but that’s for your own well-being. Even after we’re separated, after you’re cured, you and your future husband can still…”Conrad paused. He felt agitated when he thought of her being with another man.“Mrs. Taylor told me that not only did my mother yell at you constantly, she even forced you to go for some needle therapy. I heard it was very painful.”“Huh?” Fia couldn’t react just yet.“Why didn't you tell me? Don’t you feel sad about it?”Fia frowned and said, “Would you fight with your mom if I had

“Alright. Other than the project, is there anything else that you’re not happy with?”Fia bit the inside of her mouth again and said, “I want you to remain unmarried for the next three years. Can you do that?”Conrad was taken aback. “What?”“The three years that I married to you is also time that I spent. Why should you be free to find your own happiness?”“That’s not right,” Conrad said instinctively.“Then forget about it.”“…”Conrad frowned and said, “Your grandma taught you that?”Fia moved her eyes away. “No one taught me that.”“Fia… I can begin a divorce through legal means.”“Ha!” She let out a stiff smile.“We have to be separated for half a year, at least, or one of us has to do something that breaks the marriage.”She then continued with a sneer. “With that yearning of yours, can you even keep your hands to yourself for half a year?”Conrad felt like he had just been given a slap across the face.“Oh, right. You can go look for my cousin…” Fia looked at him w

“Are you angry at me because I came over to look for you?” She scanned her surroundings worriedly. “I thought I could come to see you with our relationship.”“I’m not angry at you. Don’t think too much.”“Okay.” Esme let out a smile before grabbing Conrad’s arm. “Conrad, I haven’t eaten breakfast yet and I’m hungry. Can you ask Mrs. Taylor to prepare something for me? I remember that Mrs. Taylor can cook very well, and I miss her cooking so much.”Conrad hesitated for a moment.Esme then said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to. I think I can hold my hunger for a bit more. Let’s go find a cafe and have something there.”Conrad recalled how Fia was vomiting early in the morning. She was much better after having her breakfast.Back in the living room.“Madam, I told Master Maxwell about his mother harassing you. Did he say anything to you about it?” Mrs. Taylor asked curiously.Fia smiled at her and said, “There’s nothing to be said. That’s his mother. He wouldn’t start a fight with

“Aren’t you not feeling well, Mrs. Taylor? I wouldn’t dream of asking you to do it. Fia could do it.” Esme didn’t let go of the opportunity, an innocent smile plastered on her face. “Let’s see… If you make me the spaghetti, I’ll pay you the same price that a Michelin-grade restaurant charges.”Esme pressed on knowing that she had the advantage and didn’t even let Fia have a breather.“I’ll do it,” Mrs. Taylor said.“You’re going to be on leave for the rest of the day,” Conrad said in a stern voice.“This is not suitable, Master Maxwell.” Mrs. Taylor was filled with regret. If she had known that this would happen, she would not have made up an excuse.“There’s no such thing. Esme’s her cousin and her guest. She has a duty to take care of her needs.”Fia was so angry that she was shaking, and she was controlling how hard she was tightening her fists.“It’s okay, Mrs. Taylor. Have a pleasant holiday.”“Madam…”“It’s fine. I’m the host and she’s the guest. I should take care of he

Esme’s face became pale as she stared dead at the pork chop in front of her.No matter how bad her lover’s cooking was, she had to eat it. She had to make it look delicious, too.“This is your first time making pork chop, right?”“Yes,” Conrad said gloomily as he glared at Fia. He was very unhappy with what she did.Even if what he made for her was not delicious, she shouldn’t have given it to someone else!Where was the respect?!“Thank you for your generosity, Fia!” Esme pulled the dish toward her as if worried that someone would steal it from her. She picked up a piece with her fork and ate it.The joy on her face froze. She wanted to spit it out, but she stopped when she saw Conrad looking at her.She didn’t know how she could swallow the charred, salty, hard, and weird-tasting meat. She immediately slurped some noodles.That mouthful of noodles almost sent her to her maker.“Augh!”Esme had never eaten something so disgusting, especially the Bolognese spaghetti, which t
Stop It, She’s Remarrying! Chapter 46
Esme struggled for a few more seconds before picking up another piece with a fork and then putting it into her mouth. At the next second, she could not help but grab at her chest in pain.She spat out the pork chop and said, “I’m… I’m really not feeling that comfortable. I really can’t eat any more of this.”“Fine. Don’t come to me for the time being.” Conrad stood up and walked out of the door. He didn’t care how Esme was pleading with him. He simply called the Manning household’s driver over and had him take her away.“Conrad! I couldn’t sleep the entire night because I was thinking of you! Why are you so cruel to me?!” Esme grabbed Conrad’s arm when the driver pushed the wheelchair by him on the way out.Conrad suddenly remembered how Fia had been looking at him lately. The looks she gave him were filled with disdain. He looked at the crying woman before he felt himself gasping for air. He pulled his arm away and roared at the driver. “Take her back!”Esme instantly became quie

“What is it?” Conrad could see the tears from Fia’s eyes and he walked toward her.She looked down with a soft chuckle. “It’s the dust.”With that, she rubbed her eyes, wiping the tears away.“Since you’re going to be so heartless, I suppose we’ll take this to court then,” Fia said calmly.Conrad frowned. “Are you sure you want to take this to court?”The Maxwell Corporation’s lawyers were all well-known elites across Fortuna. No one dared to take his company to court. “I’m sure.”“Fia, you have never worked, so you don’t know how much this will cost you. Let’s discuss this. I won’t owe you a cent.”“We won’t know the result until the end. I simply hope that you’re willing to abide by the court’s rulings,” Fia said. She trusted her grandma had connections and that they could hire some capable lawyers.“Fine, let’s do it.” Conrad shrugged and wanted to go into the ward.Fia reacted quickly and stood in front of the room’s door, blocking his path.“Thanks, but no thanks. You

When Fia saw those words, she felt somewhat comforted.After accompanying her mom and grandma for the whole day, Fia grabbed a cab and went home around five in the evening.“Mrs. Taylor, is he back?”“Master Maxwell isn’t back yet. He must be busy at work.”“Right.”When Mrs. Taylor saw the expectation on Fia’s face dissipated, she quickly said, “If there’s anything urgent, you can call him directly. He’ll pick it up.”“No need.” Fia lowered her eyes and remembered the baby in her womb.During lunch in the hospital, she lost her appetite thanks to the scent of sanitizers. She was starving now.“Mrs. Taylor, I’m hungry.”“I’ve already finished cooking. It’s your favorite.”Fia happily followed Mrs. Taylor into the dining room. Mrs. Taylor removed the cover and said, “I’ve prep

She was not worthy of him.Right from the start."Wait a moment."She lowered her head to treat the wounds of a mother and son, then stood up with the medical kit and smiled at him."Shall I treat you to a meal?""Sure."She led him through the damp and moldy alley to a shabby restaurant.She ordered two bowls of noodles in the local language, sat down at the old table, took out a handkerchief, and wiped it vigorously.Conrad looked at her. It was obvious that she was different from before.She had gone through hardship, suffering, despair, and then settled down.The noodles were not delicious. There was no oil or salt, and even the soup was bland and tasteless.He looked at her sallow face and said, "Is this what you've been eating the whole year you’ve been here?""This is considered a good meal." Annie did not complain and said that she usually just ate some steamed buns.The conditions here were poor and backward in various ways.Moreover, Lucifer was determined to ma

Fia stood on the streets, looking at the photos and remembering what Lucifer had once mentioned."When everything is over, how about I take you, Adrian, and Irene on a trip?"The man's blue eyes were like the sea, looking at her deeply.She fell into a daze for a moment back then.After coming back to her senses, she replied without emotion, "You should find a partner and travel around the world, and I should live a good life with my children."The sound of car horns on the road brought Fia back from her thoughts.She looked at the blue sky and white clouds and remembered the beggar boy she met on the bridge when she was a child.If he hadn't been taken away that day, would it have been different if he managed to wait until she and her mother went to find him?The days ahead were still very long, and she was not sure whether she would be able to live peacefully with Conrad in the future.But she would never swallow her anger like she did before.Later, Conrad, a decisive char

Irene whimpered, turned around, and hugged Adrian. "Adrian, does Daddy not want us anymore?""No, don't talk nonsense! Didn't you hear what Daddy just said?""I heard him, but why do we have to choose? I won't be happy no matter who Mommy marries.""Shut up!" Adrian was a little anxious. If this silly sister of his said in front of everyone that their mommy could marry two men, it would be over!"Why shut up? Why can't we be with Mommy, Daddy, and our biological dad..."Adrian immediately covered her mouth. He knew that this sister of his could not speak normal words!Everyone in the audience also had mixed emotions. Those who originally complained about Lucifer’s actions all became quiet at this moment.With Lucifer’s blessings, Conrad took off the mask.Fia looked at him, tears rolling down her face.How much she had wished to have a wedding back then. She did not expect it to be so many years late.Conrad said with difficulty, "I didn't expect him to do this either."He w

"Do you really want to stop the wedding?" Lucifer smiled half-heartedly, looking at him like a fool.***"What's going on? Why hasn't the groom come yet?" Everyone couldn't help discussing.Fia stood on the stage and exchanged looks with the emcee.Both of them were a little tired from standing.The emcee asked her awkwardly, "The groom?""He should be coming soon." After Fia finished speaking, the wind blew and revealed her face under the veil. "Just wait."The emcee cursed internally. 'It's really rare to have a wedding with such a beautiful bride kept waiting.'Fia fiddled with the veil on her head to cover her face, making her hazy beauty even more attractive.Just as everyone was waiting impatiently, the music suddenly changed to a more passionate one.The groom appeared.Wearing a black suit with gold threads and a blue rose on his chest, the six-foot-two man wore a golden mask on his face.With just one glance, Fia’s heart suddenly jumped and her body temperature bec

The two kids could only rush back to find their mother and tell her what happened.Fia did not panic. "You were raised by Daddy. Don't you trust him? He is a man who keeps his promises. He said he is just inviting them to the wedding, so they are just attending the wedding."Even though she was suspicious in her heart, she would not speak ill of him to her two children.This island belonged to Lucifer, and his spies were everywhere.If he was infuriated, no one stood to gain anything from it."But that person was not arranged to sit down. He was taken into the woods," Adrian said anxiously.Fia turned to look at her son. "Are you worried about him?"Adrian could not look directly at her.Irene spoke first. "I'm the one who’s worried. I don't want them to fight.""Oh." Fia reassured them. "It should be fine. Today is a special day. Your daddy will not want to see blood."She thought Lucifer was simply afraid that Conrad would cause trouble, so he brought him to the island to l

Amused, Lucifer said, "Those people are not under my command.""They gave you all the companies under their names. You said you'd let bygones be bygones, but if you go back on your word, how will your subordinates see you?"Fia’s eyes were a little arrogant.Lucifer’s expression turned cold and he stared at her and said, "How important do you think Hellish Training Camp is to me?""Then give it away!" Fia raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of teasing.Lucifer was speechless for a couple of seconds and explained to her seriously in a rare instance, "Those people have sacrificed a lot since they started following me. I can't ignore them. Except one day when there is a more suitable successor. I will take the initiative to give up my position.""Then you have to lead them well." Fia smiled slyly.Lucifer gritted his teeth with hatred. "Marrying you is equivalent to marrying a housekeeper. From now on, must everything I do have your permission?"Fia said, "Invisible shackles."On

"I got it.""Thank you, Daddy!" Adrian kissed him twice on the face. "My sister and I will take care of you until you die.""Hahahaha!" Lucifer could not stop laughing. "Okay, I'll wait until you two grow up to see me off."He smiled while carrying Adrian and walked to Fia and Irene.Irene was eating something and said vaguely, "Adrian’s temper is getting worse now, and he lost his temper with me.""Who is angry with you!" Adrian slid off Lucifer. "Who do you think you are, that you can influence me?""Mommy, Adrian is shouting at me!" Irene pouted.Adrian turned his back. "Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore."Lucifer and Fia looked at Irene."Mommy, Daddy, what are you looking at me for?" Irene blinked, looking innocent.Lucifer sat down beside her. "Adrian should love you, but you should also respect him.""Didn't I respect him?" Irene was a little confused.Fia said, "While I'm still here, you just spread rumors that he is angry with you."Irene replied, "But he was

Eileen returned to the living room."Is she really going to marry Lucifer?" Victor asked nervously.Eileen remained silent.Victor threw the spatula in his hand. "Can't you stop her for a bit?""Why should I stop her? No matter who she marries, she will always be my best friend!" Eileen said angrily. "Whoever wants to stop her should stop her on their own!"Victor saw that she was angry and quickly picked up the spatula. "I'm going to cook."Eileen rolled her eyes at him, sat on the sofa, and scrolled through her phone.Thinking of Adrian and Irene, she could not help but feel a little irritable.What if Fia and Lucifer had a child in the future?For the happiness of the two children, she forwarded the photo sent by Fia to Conrad.After Conrad received the photo, he immediately ordered everyone under him to put down all work and find the location in the photo.Three days later.The wedding on the island was beautifully decorated, dreamy and gorgeous, with Lucifer’s involvem

Soon, Fia knew what they were doing with just a little of the decoration showing.Decorating the wedding venue.Irene was a little girl who was very happy when she saw balloons and pink ribbons.She ran over and grabbed them, but her brother, Adrian, slapped her little hand."Don't cause trouble!""So beautiful! These uncles and aunts were invited by Daddy. Can't I play with these things?"Adrian pinched her cheek and said, "That's Daddy decorating the wedding scene for Mommy!""What?" Irene immediately retracted her hand and said with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry. I didn't know."Adrian rubbed her head and said, "It doesn't matter. Don’t simply meddle. It should be beautiful when it's done."Irene nodded, took her brother’s hand and hid under a nearby coconut tree, and spent the whole day doing nothing except cooking and watching them.By evening, the dreamy and beautiful wedding scene was mostly completed.Irene leaned against her brother and asked dully, "Daddy and Momm
