Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 157
The bedroom door wasn’t completely closed.
Fia knocked on the door. “Are you in there?”
“Come in,” Conrad said, his tone low.
Fia took a deep breath and went in.
The curtains were all drawn and the lights were switched
off. The room was drowned in darkness.
She frowned and wanted to switch on the lights.
From the darkness, a hand pulled her.
She let out a cry and he quickly mounted her.
“What are you doing?!”
“Fi… I missed you…”
The man’s voice was deep and there was a hint of impulsion within it.
Fia pushed him away. “Can you please not disgust me like this? They’ve just taken pictures of you with
her and now you’re saying you miss me.”
“Fi… I’m not feeling well.”
Fia asked instinctively as she blushed. “How can a CEO like you fall for her paltry tricks? Is it because
you love her too
much?”
“Can we not talk about that, Fi?”
She dodged his kissing as she mocked him. “You don’t want to talk about it? Or are you too ashamed
to talk about it?”
“I didn’t touch Esme. I’ve been holding it back since I reached home. I thought you were home.”
He gasped as he softly nibbled on her shoulders.
“Why weren’t you home, Fi? Why are you so naughty? Where did you go?”
“I went to look for Eileen.”
The man’s desperation made her less comfortable.
If it were in the past, he would have no time to do this with her if he was put on television after doing
that with Esme.
Back on the first floor, Eileen rubbed her hands as she looked at Mrs. Taylor anxiously.
“Mrs. Taylor, why hasn’t she come down yet? I hope nothing happened.”
Mrs. Taylor replied with a red face, “You must be joking, Ms. Reid. This is the madam’s home. No one
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwill hurt her here.”
“Your employer will! He’s like a rabid dog!” Eileen said irritably.
“Ms. Reid, you can’t say that. Master Maxwell has always
treated Madam Fia quite well.”
“No, I better go take a look!”
Mrs. Taylor spread out her arms to stop Eileen and said awkwardly, “Master Maxwell was drugged. He
needs the
madam…”
She stopped. Eileen had seen plenty of things in the
entertainment industry and she immediately knew what had
happened.
“That plastic whore did it?”
“At the Mannings,” Mrs. Taylor said, her anger becoming evident in her tone. “She’s properly born and
raised to be a lady! How can she plot such a despicable thing!”
“Yes, quite despicable. Only your master thinks that she’s someone kind and innocent!” Eileen said as
she clenched
her teeth. “He didn’t let her get her way?”
Mrs. Taylor’s face became even redder.
“Mrs. Reid, if Master Maxwell did sleep with her, does he
need to wait for the madam to return?”
Eileen sighed. “What kind of relationship is this? All he does
is torture Fia in the end.”
She looked at the time and said, “Fine. I’ll visit Fia another time. I’m going home first.”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Reid. I’ll take good care of her.”
“Do that. You do need to take good care of her and make more tasty food for her more frequently.”
Fia still managed to keep her cool despite Conrad’s actions.
“Wait here. Eileen is still waiting.”
“Yell to her from the door… I can’t wait anymore!” Conrad’s tone was filled with impatience. “I’ve waited
long enough
Fia knew that he was losing his senses and she didn’t want to start another fight with him, for the sake
of her child.
Her heart skipped a beat. She pushed him away and mounted him instead.
She looked at him sternly, his eyes burning with passionate flame.
“Conrad… Don’t do anything rash… Otherwise, you’ll get burned!”
Conrad blushed as he nodded. “Okay.”
After a long while, Fia went to wash up in the bathroom
while Conrad looked at her from the door.
After she was done, he asked, “Have you eaten?”
Fia nodded. “I have.”
Conrad said, “I haven’t eaten yet. Come with me.”
Fia didn’t want to go but he simply grabbed her and carried her down with him.
Mrs. Taylor said with a smile, “I made supper. Come and eat to replenish your energy.”
Fia’s face turned red. She didn’t have to imply it so heavily
Conrad held up a giant crab pincer and asked, “Do you want to eat this?”
Fia glanced at it. She wanted to.
But she remembered what Doctor Evans said. She can’t eat crabs.
“No.”
Conrad asked, “I thought you liked to eat crabs in the past?”
Fia said, “The past is in the past. Can’t I change?”
She even rolled her eyes at him. “You liked my cousin in the past and even wanted to marry her!”
Conrad almost choked at that and put down the crab. He
wasn’t sure how to continue the conversation.
Fia moved a plate of prawns in front of her and was going to start peeling the shells off and start eating.
“Let me do it.”
Conrad took the plate.
Fia didn’t hesitate to eat the prawns that he deshelled. “Why are you so gentle? You’re feeling
ashamed of something?”
Conrad said, “I went to Esme’s room to look for you. I didn’t realize that would happen.”
“Sure.” Fia remembered that she didn’t tell him she was
leaving and he fell right into their trap.
Despite the guilt she felt, she kept on saying, “What a good chance. Not only were you drugged, but
you might as well have just gone all the way.”
Conrad saw how uncaring she was and copied her tone.” True. She was halfway begging me on her
knees.”

After he said that, he was stunned.
Why was he thinking of her?
Logically speaking, Esme was his childhood love.
He should be thinking of her at the time.
“Why were you thinking of me?” Fia was also quite perplexed.
She saw the confusion on Conrad’s face.
“Because I’m your wife?”
“If you’re still single and don’t have me as your wife, would you still reject her when she throws herself
at you?”
Conrad frowned even deeper as the questions got to him.
He didn’t like to think about things that weren’t possible.
And didn’t want to answer too.
However, Fia misunderstood him and said, “You’re quite the man, Mr. Maxwell! You still remember your
wife when the woman you love is in front of you! No wonder you can build up your business empire!”
“Can you please don’t talk like that?” Conrad suddenly remembered the secret that Victor told him.
He then looked at Fia suspiciously.
“Are you hiding something from me?”
“What?” Fia tried her best to calm down when she
remembered her child. “How can I answer you if you don’t
specify your question.”
“Are you hiding a lot of things from me?” Conrad’s expression darkened.
“If you think so, then yes.” Fia put down her fork. “I don’t have any appetite anymore.”
“Fia, I’ll ask you some questions and you will answer me honestly,” Conrad said in a harsh tone.
Fia stopped and turned around, fixing her gaze at him.
“What do you want to know?”
Conrad then asked, “Do you have dirt on my mother? Is the reason she’s obedient because you
threatened her?”
Fia’s hands turned into fists as her sharp eyes softened. It
was a pity.
“You know everything?” She laughed. “If you know
everything, why are you still asking me that question? Why don’t you ask your mother?!”
