Semua Bab Stop It, She’s Remarrying!: Bab 21 - Bab 30

She pretended not to see Conrad as she pulled Eileen’s hand and had her sit down.“Have some fruit, Eileen.”She then turned around and rubbed her mother’s back and said, “Don’t worry about me, mom. I’m fine.”“Fia…” Echo held her daughter’s hand and only managed to calm down after a long time.Thea had also calmed down as she straightened her back. “You want a divorce? Fine. Firstly, you’re not allowed to see Esme again before your divorce is complete! Secondly, the reason that I passed you the project that Old Maxwell and I were managing was so you would treat Fia well!“Now that you want to divorce Fia, you will pass it to her! Have Accounting calculate everything clearly. Pass everything on to her!”Fia was stunned. She didn’t know that her grandma had sacrificed so much so that Conrad would treat her well.She was feeling even worse. Was the reason Conrad treated her well for the past three years because of that project?Conrad frowned and said, “I can’t pass that to her.”

Silas stood there and then asked, “Doctor, about Madam Thea…”“Go back.” Fia stopped him. “Remember to tell Mr. Maxwell about what I told you.”“Madam, I want to stay and help.”“No need. There are doctors and nurses here,” Fia said very firmly.She was very disappointed. Her grandma had really fainted, but Conrad had suspected that she was faking it. He didn’t even come and had Silas do it instead. What was the point?After Silas walked away, Jason then asked, “You didn’t tell anyone about your pregnancy?”“Yes. But that’s not important right now. Why did my grandma fall unconscious?”Jason couldn’t bear to tell her the truth. “Your grandmother fainted because of a cerebral hemorrhage.”“Cerebral hemorrhage?” Fia had to support herself with the wall. She had heard about her grandpa from her mother… He had suddenly passed away because of a cerebral hemorrhage when he was fifty.“Your grandmother is quite healthy, and she has no other diseases. If her health was any worse, she

Fia looked at the floor and said, “Thanks, doctor.”Jason closed the water bottle and put it into his coat pocket. He then took out the packet of plums that hadn’t been opened yet.“Have some of these. It’ll make you feel better.”Fia looked at the package in his hand with disinterest. She didn’t know what to say, so she simply asked, “What’s this?”The man carefully explained, “Dried plums. Something that most pregnant women like to eat. This brand is known to be very clean so you don’t have to worry if it’s bad for your child.”With that, he tore open the package and then gave it to her.“Here, give it a try?”Fia took one. The plums were individually packaged. Jason took the small packed plum from her hand and tore it open. He then pushed it out and held it to her mouth.“Open.”Fia opened her mouth and ate the dried plum in Jason’s hand in a daze.It was so sour… So sour that it made her remember something from her childhood.She was bullied a lot by kids her age becau

“Rubbish! All men are the same!” Eileen growled in anger.Fia grabbed Eileen’s arm and kept her close. “But… I just can’t accept it. Especially when I see her in his arms.“What right does she have? What right does she have to take him back when she abandoned him three years ago? Does she think that she can have him back whenever she wants? We are the ones that are married. She has no right to ask me to give him up to her.”Eileen grabbed Fia’s arm and said, “If you can’t accept it, let me give you an idea. Don’t hide the news about your pregnancy. Instead, we have to let everyone know! Not only do the Maxwells need to know, but we also want Esme to know about it too. We want the entire Gryphon city to know about it! Let’s see if Conrad will kill his own child for his first love!”When Fia heard the word “kill”, she shuddered.“What if… He really wants me to abort my child for Esme?”Eileen instantly went silent. She knew that there was nothing more she could say, as the decision

During the yearly family gatherings, her Aunt Beth would always say how good her husband was in front of her and her mother. She would say how well their company was doing and expanding.Saying that she had a good life even without depending on the Lawsons, unlike them who were being supported by Thea.She never thought that they were actually depending on her uncles’ goodwill!Her three uncles did very well in Gryphon. They all had their own companies and cared a lot about family.Every year, her uncles would shower her with gifts even after she was married.Of course, so did Esme.During the three years that Esme was overseas, her uncles would directly transfer money to Esme’s bank account instead of giving gifts.Her uncles treated her and Esme the same. They had never treated one better than the other.“And now, not only are you not grateful that you used our family to transform a little hoodlum like Hank into an entrepreneur, but you’ve also even set your eyes on destroyin
