Stop It, She’s Remarrying! Chapter 45
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

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

Fia hesitated for a few seconds before saying with insistence, “You’re reading too much into it, Mrs. Taylor. I’m not pregnant.”“Understood, Madam. Since you’re not feeling well, please return to the bedroom and have some rest.”“Sure.”At ten at night, Conrad finally reached home. The moment he entered through the door, he was greeted by Mrs. Taylor’s worried eyes.“Master Maxwell, please speak with the madam when you have the time.”“What happened?”“I believe that she’s pregnant. However, she probably doesn’t know it herself or doesn’t want you to know.”Conrad frowned and looked at Mrs. Taylor with a strange look. “She’s infertile. Not to mention that being pregnant isn’t something to be ashamed of. If she really is pregnant, why wouldn’t she tell me?”Mrs. Taylor had no answers to his questions.That was true. If she really was pregnant, the madam would be overjoyed.She had to endure so much pain during the therapy and even with her mother-in-law. The reason that she d

Fia could no longer maintain her cool and opened her eyes, glaring at Conrad.“Why?”“It belongs to me. I can give it to whomever I want!” Conrad said with cold eyes.Fia suddenly remembered something. “It’s her birthday today.”When he saw the misgivings in her eyes calm, Conrad felt like he was a jester.“You’re right. It’s yours. You can give it to whoever you want, even the entire company.”Fia turned around and looked at the other side. She didn’t want to see him again.Conrad felt his anger reach its tipping point as he pulled her up.“Why are you doing this?!”Fia frowned. She could feel the pain in her arm as he pulled her.She raised her head and said, “Can you please stop? It’s the middle of the night.”“And who’s the one that started this?!”He grabbed her by the neck. He didn’t put any strength into it, but it was firm enough to make her immobile.Fia looked at him, shocked. This was the first time she was seeing him being this violent.“I gave you the wedding

Every time the school needed to send students out for competition events, he would be among the chosen ones. He would always come back with the number one prize, improving the school’s reputation.Conrad was eight years older than her, and two years older than Esme.When she was in second grade, her grandmother took her and her cousin to his grandfather’s birthday.When Conrad saw the guests in his family home, he acted like he usually did. Full of pride and arrogance.Perhaps it was because of their grandparents’ relationship, he would treat her and her cousin slightly better. He would actually greet them.That time, he had somehow provoked the children from the other households while they were enjoying themselves in the family home’s backyard. They attacked him in a group.She led her unwilling cousin into the fray. Of course, they couldn’t push back the others and she then went and called the adults.When the adults came, the war stopped.Afterward, she went to look for the

“You’ve been mistreating me lately, so that’s your fault.”Conrad frowned and stopped as he looked down at her.That was how she was supposed to act in the past three years, but something felt different.Fia thought about a lot of things when she was sitting by the flowerbed. She couldn’t continue the fight with him and continue to escalate their fights. It would only benefit Esme.No matter how lowly she would become, it wouldn’t be better. She had to consider things for the child in her womb now, too.She had to tell him about her pregnancy, so that he would accept the child’s existence.Once they were back in the bedroom, Fia pulled him into the shower and helped him shave, just like she did in the past.When he saw how gentle and obedient she was, he could feel the flames of desire slowly burning inside of him. He had been abstaining for two weeks now.He placed his hands by her waist and growled with a heavy hint. “Fia. We’re not divorced yet.”Fia didn’t anger him as she

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
