Stop It She's Remarrying by Stellar Strands

“That has nothing to do with me,” Fia said as she closed her eyes. She didn’t realize that her grandma

took such quick actions.

While she was quite moved at the time, she didn’t agree with it. This was all her grandma’s own plan.

“She loves you. That was the only reason why she’s treating Esme like this. You need to be the one to

settle this!” Conrad couldn’t help but say it louder.

“Conrad Maxwell!” Fia roared as she suddenly sat up and pointed at her own face. “Did you question

your mother when she hit me and my mom?! Not only did you not apologize on her behalf for what

happened this afternoon, but you’re also screaming at me because of that woman! Do you even have a

heart?!”

When Conrad saw the red swelling on her face, his temper also quickly rose.

“My mom fell into the pond! If I didn’t come back in time, who knows what would have happened! I’m

already sparing you some dignity with how I dealt with this! Don’t you dare make me go through this

with you again!”

“Fine, let’s go through this again!” Fia suddenly calmed down. “You can sue me, and you can call the

cops on me! Let’s see if the cops will punish me for what happened!”

She didn’t intentionally hurt anyone. She had been simply fighting back after his mother humiliated and

beat her. She never expected the railing to suddenly break. Everything that happened was an accident

and her conscience was clear!

“Don’t think that I won’t dare!”

“You’re rich and influential. What is there you won’t do?!” Fia said as she finally lost all her patience and

got out of bed barefoot.

If he wouldn’t leave, then she would!

“Where are you going?” Conrad grabbed her wrist.

“I don’t want to stay in the same room with you!” Fia pulled her hand away, but she couldn’t free

herself.

As the two of them pulled each other, she lost balance and fell right into Conrad’s arms.

Conrad could smell the unique scent on her and remembered how tempting she looked every time she

was in his arms.

He couldn’t help but gulp, and he said, “Stop it. Your mom and grandmother are both here. They won’t

be happy if they know we are separated even when we sleep.”

“We’re going to get a divorce eventually. There’s no need to put on a show anymore!”

Conrad quickly had his arm around Fia’s waist and pressed her into his chest.

As the grown man and woman clung tightly to each other, either’s breathing began to lose control as

they could hear each other’s heartbeat.

It was a sign of desire.

“Fi, I apologize about what happened on behalf of my mom.” The man’s tone suddenly lowered. There

was even a hint of gentleness in it.

Fia was taken aback when he called her Fi! During their marriage for the past three years, he would

only call her Fi when he wanted it.

As she smelled Esme’s perfume on him and felt his hand on her waist, she could suddenly feel her

stomach protesting.

“Ack!”

She instinctively retched.

Conrad was offended by her reaction and said, “You and I are still husband and wife. You have the

obligation to help me meet my biological needs!”

With that, he grabbed Fia by the neck to force her to lift her chin and he kissed her.

When the wood fragrance and Esme’s cardamom perfume scent mixed, it made Fia feel even worse.

She hit his face and continued to retch.

No matter how much he had wanted it just now, he had cooled down after all the retching.

“What is this?!”

Fia said coldly to him as she pressed her hand on her stomach and said, “If you want it, go look for

Esme. Don’t disgust me!”

Conrad angrily threw her on the bed and said, “Fine. You made me.”

He turned around and left the master bedroom, slamming the door behind him with a deafening bang.

Fia continued to lie on the bed as her tears rolled down.

She yelled out in sorrow in her own mind. ‘Are all men this cheap? Even when he has someone else in

his heart, even if he was so close with her just a moment ago, he could desire something from another

woman that he doesn’t even like a second later.’

Not long after, there was a knock at the door.

Mrs. Taylor’s concerned voice came through the door. “Are you alright, madam?”

She was worried that Conrad would start a fight with Fia because Beryl fell into the pond. While she

had already explained what happened to Conrad, she got worried when she saw him with a dark

expression on his face when he left.

“Madam?”

“I’m fine,” Fia answered her.

Mrs. Taylor hesitated for a moment before consoling her, “Madam, I know that you feel victimized.

However, if you can’t bear leaving Mr. Maxwell, just be patient for now. If you made him angry and he

left, it would only give advantage to the other woman.”

Fia didn’t need to guess who the “other woman” was. She was referring to Esme.

But regardless of whether she made him angry or not, he had already decided to return to Esme’s side.

What was the difference?

Her meekness couldn’t make him love her.

Mrs. Taylor waited for a few seconds. When she didn’t hear Fia’s response, she sighed and said, “Rest

well, madam. I’ll talk with Mr. Maxwell.”

Fia wiped away the tears with the back of her hand as she murmured to herself, “What’s there to cry

about! I can’t cry like this just because I was touched by a few words from his employee when he

himself hurt me the most!”

From now on, other than her mother and grandma, she would never be so meek toward anyone else

ever again!
