Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 170
Once Fia’s condition had stabilized, Sally looked at the three men in the ward and said, “All of you,
leave. Let Ms. Lawson rest.
“What happened to her?” Conrad asked.
Sally snarled, showing how much disdain she had for him.
“I did a test on Ms. Lawson earlier and already told you that she has mild depression. I don’t know what
she went through for her to emotionally crash today.
“What happened to her was not only because of her depression but because she wanted to fight off the
pain inside of her… Even if that meant biting off her own tongue, Her condition is very bad. Give it
enough time and she’ll emotionally collapse!”
The more Sally explained, the more stirred up she became. She stared at Conrad,” Did you provoke
her, Mr. Maxwell?”
“We’re doing… quite well lately,” Conrad said.
Jason gave him an angry glare. “Quite well? By leaving her alone while you left with your lover?”
“You hurt Esme. I was simply sending her to the hospital!”
And then, he remembered the call.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the time, he was taking Esme to the doctor. Her call basically stepped on his toes, making him
believe that she was just trying to fight for his affection.
He didn’t know she was really sick. Otherwise, he would never have been so harsh
with her.
“Mr. Maxwell, despite being her husband, you can’t seem to take good care of her. Please leave!” Sally
told Conrad to leave and blocked him from looking at Fia.
“How is she doing?”
“Before you are able to deal with your private matters, you better stop coming here and agitating her.”
Conrad knew that he was at fault, so he went out. All of a sudden, he came back and dragged Jason
and Kent out together with him.
Sally sighed as she looked at Fia, who was fast asleep.
“Ms. Lawson… Even I pity you.”
She had personally seen Conrad bringing Esme to the hospital.
“Conrad, where did you go?” Esme sat on the hospital bed and looked at Conrad pitifully.
Conrad had Fia’s face in his mind, and his expression turned cold.
“Esme, don’t appear in front of me again.”
She immediately played the victim and said, “What? Why? What did I do?”
“Do you really want me to lay out everything in front of you? Fine. The first time when I almost fell for
your ploy, you said that you couldn’t control yourself. I forgave you. The second time? It was even
worse! You had a group of reporters take pictures of us holding each other! Do you know how hard this
is on Fia!”
Esme pulled away, like a child being yelled at by an adult.
She held the cup in her hand tightly and said with tears rolling. “I… I just wanted to make you stay by
my side! I’ve only had you as a boyfriend for so long! You can’t just give up on me like that.”
“Esme, we can’t go back to the past!”
“You don’t understand Fia at all! She doesn’t like you. Why would she be saddened. because of me?
Conrad, she likes that doctor. She…”
“Enough!” Conrad couldn’t hold back his anger anymore. “Do you think I’m stupid to believe all the
badmouthing?”
Esme was stunned, and she then shook her head and cried.
“I… I won’t say it anymore. We have known each other for so long, Conrad. I’m not a bad woman! You
know that! Why do you hate me so much now!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Stop. Don’t talk, alright?” Conrad looked at Esme and recalled Fia’s face.
Fia was the one who should be crying. But, she was even more stubborn than a bull.
He also finally realized that Esme wasn’t as tenacious as he had first thought. Fial
was.
“I understand.” Esme wiped her tears. “You want to cut me off, so that you can maintain the marriage
between you and Fia, right?”
“Yes.”
Conrad didn’t hesitate.
“Fine. You have my blessings. But can you promise me one thing?”
“Say it.”
“Three years ago, we didn’t have our candlelight dinner. Can we have it, for me?”
Conrad remained silent.
Three years ago, that candlelight dinner was when he asked for her hand in
marriage. She was so shocked that she left. True. They didn’t eat anything during
that dinner.
“I won’t do anything. Treat it as our final dinner together, okay?” Esme pleaded.
