Semua Bab Stop It, She’s Remarrying!: Bab 811 - Bab 820

The staff could not help but chip in, “Not just in the city, miss. The whole planet!”A scowl appeared on Esme’s face upon hearing that. “What do you mean by that?! Are you mocking me?!”“No, we’re talking about zombies.” Sophia leaned on the display table and flicked her hair alluringly as she sized Esme up in disdain. “Or perhaps… Miss Thomas, do you harbour ill intent all day long? If you don’t, you wouldn’t think others are badmouthing you when you overhear their conversations.”Sophia had a sharp tongue. Her words miffed Esme to the point of losing her words.“Okay, come on now, Sophia. Let’s not get too teasy.” Fia tapped on Sophia’s hand and took a good look at her necklace via the mirror.It was indeed her design. And it was selling really well too! Although Conrad had gifted her a set of jewelry that were designed by her, they were not branded with Maxwell Corporation’s trademark. So it was quite a fun experience buying her own work that had the company’s trademark in

After the other customers were sent off, only Fia, Sophia, and Esme were left as customers within the store. Seeing this, Esme became anxious and wanted to leave. As she was prepared to leave, the manager called out to her loudly as he was typing on the keyboard, “Miss, please wait for just a short while! I’m still processing your refund!”Esme stopped in her tracks—300,000 dollars was no small amount to her at the moment. It was Peter’s money. This man was quite eccentrically abusive so she did not want to upset him. So she decided to wait for the refund while being watched by Fia and Sophia.A few minutes passed and the refund was not successfully processed yet. Esme asked, “Is it done yet? I’m in a hurry!”“Soon! Very soon, miss! Don’t you worry. It’ll be just a few minutes. I lack the full authorization so I have to talk to the higher-ups for access,” the manager said.Esme took a few tissue papers from her handbag to wipe off the sweat that was rolling off her face. A few mi

When she came back from the washroom, Esme was surprised to find a piano placed in the middle of the store with Conrad sitting nearby. She turned and looked at Conrad. “What are you doing here?”Conrad glanced at her coldly before sipping a cup of tea that was served to him by the store’s staff. “I’ve heard you are quite free lately. Were you learning piano?”Esme swallowed her saliva and scanned her surroundings with caution. Fia and Sophia were not in the vicinity. She was afraid that her secret would be uncovered if there was no mole on her bottom. So she asked Peter to manually plant one for her this morning. Sophia probably saw the mole when she pulled her pants down earlier. So her secret was still safe.Still, she did not understand why Conrad brought the piano over. “I had a friend who loves playing the piano. So I knew one thing or two about the piano… and I don’t want to do research anymore after coming back to Fortuna. So I tried learning to play instruments on my own

Esme was stunned upon hearing that. Maxwell Corporation is a place to do work and business, not for playing music. What did he mean by that?Was he really that fond of her piano skills? Or was he mocking her? She really could not tell. He and Britney Thomas were not enemies. He never liked to socialize with people but also never liked to cause trouble to others. “Mr. Maxwell, I don’t quite understand what you meant,” she said cautiously.Conrad took a glance at the manager and gave him an order, “From henceforth, our stores will not let Britney Thomas through the door and do business with her.”“Understood, sir.” The manager obliged immediately. Esme was glad to hear it. Did this mean that Conrad was frustrated when he saw her being indecisive to play piano at his company earlier? So his frustration burst into anger, which led to him banning her from shopping in his stores!Without giving it much thought, Esme said, “If you want me to play in your company, of course I will do i

Tiger and Silas quickly got back to work. Meanwhile, Sophia was showing her displeasure at her boss’s actions.“You shouldn’t have been alone with that wh*re.”Conrad frowned and glared at Sophia. “You said you saw her mole. What color is it?”“What color could a mole be? Of course, it’s black!” Sophia grumbled.“The mole that’s on Britney isn’t black, it’s red!” Conrad said.“What?” Sophia was slightly stunned. “Who told you that?”Conrad didn’t want to continue the topic. “Locate Fia using her phone.”“…Sir.” Sophia quietly showed him Fia’s purse. “She doesn’t have her phone.”Meanwhile, after entering the alley and reaching another street, Fia took a taxi to Gryphonheart Hospital. Gryphonheart Hospital.Peter had just witnessed Esme getting sent into the surgery room. He waited outside, worried. With no one else to talk to, he gave his sister a call.“Sally, something happened to her.”Sally originally wanted to ignore her brother, but when she heard the worry and guilt
