Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 124
“Is it because of me and Esme that you don’t want to remarry, but you want to cheat on me?!”
Fia let out a smile full of despair and said, “I don’t want to talk to you.”
How could he, who was at fault for the very thing he was condemning her repeatedly for, accuse her?
Conrad tightened his fist and asked, “Esme said that you wanted a doctor to be your husband when
you were little, is that correct?”
“I did say something like that.”
It was children’s talk. Not to mention she hadn’t fallen for him yet then.
But to think that Esme would use it against her like this.
“So, you and that doctor…”
“Conrad!” Fia cut him off. “You can humiliate me, but don’t humiliate other people. He has nothing to do
with this, unlike you and Esme!”
The door behind Fia opened.
Echo opened the door while holding the door frame as support. “Why are you two fighting?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConrad looked at his mother–in–law. She had lost so much weight in such a short time. Her face had
lost color, and she was shaking from just standing.
“It’s fine mom, don’t worry.” Fia quickly went over and helped Echo. She then glared at Conrad with red
eyes. “We can talk about it later tonight when we’re home.”
Conrad wanted to refuse. But when he saw how weak Echo was, he couldn’t do it and simply left with
fury still in his heart.
Fia helped her mother back into the ward and closed the door, blocking all prying eyes outside the
door,
“Fia, I heard the fight between you two. Doctor Evans was even dragged into this? What happened
between you two?”
“It’s nothing, mom. Conrad’s like a rabid dog now and he would bear his fangs at anyone!”
“Don’t tell me he wants to divorce you and leave you with nothing, and that’s why he’s intentionally
ruining your reputation?” Echo said with worry. “He’s very decisive when it comes to work. I was
worried that he would use this against you.”
Fia was stunned and she shook her head. “That’s not it.”
While their relationship couldn’t be any worse, she could at least trust him on that front.
Trust that he would not plot against her like how he plotted against his enemies.
“I believe Esme must have said something in front of him again to worsen our relationship.”
“Then why was Doctor Evans dragged into this?” Echo coughed again. “For the sake of your marriage,
maybe I should transfer?”
“Don’t worry, mom. He’s just letting his anger take over him. He’ll understand soon enough. Someone
like Doctor Evans would never fall for me.”
“He’s a good man.” Echo wanted to say something else when she suddenly began coughing
uncontrollably.
When Fia saw her coughing like that, she was worried that she would cough out her inner organs and
quickly pressed the bell for the nurse.
The nurse had just entered when Echo coughed out blood and groaned in pain.
“What’s wrong with my mom, nurse?!” Fia cried.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don’t worry. I’ll get the doctor right now.”
The doctor that came was Jason and he asked Fia to leave. Very quickly, the nurses asked for two
more doctors.
After an hour, the door into the ward finally opened.
Fia, who had been squatting by the door, quickly stood up. She almost walked into Jason.
He held her arms and looked at her with a serious expression on his face.
“E… Evans… What’s going on?” Fia looked at his serious expression and nervousness began to
overwhelm her.
“Fia, be prepared.”
Fia shook her head. “No!”
She pushed Jason away and ran directly into the ward.
Echo lay there weakly, unconscious. She was already connected to a mechanical ventilator.
A doctor looked at Fia, walked to her, and whispered, “Go and inform the other next of kin.”
Fia shook her head and refused. “No… She’s going to stay with me for a very long time… She’ll look at
me giving birth to my child… And…”
Then something choked her, and she couldn’t say another word.
She felt fear and despair as she squatted on the floor, wailing.
