“What did you say?” Sophia didn’t hear her clearly.
“It’s nothing,” Eileen said as she tried to widen her eyes to look at Peter’s face as she had slight nearsightedness.
However, when she was able to get a better look, she gasped. “Mr. Peter Hall!”
Peter instantly looked at the bushes. “Who’s there?!”
Sophia was speechless as she pinched Eileen’s waist. “What are you doing?”
“I… Couldn’t help myself!” Eileen said regretfully.
“Come out!” Peter walked toward the bushes.
Eileen stood up with her head lowered. “Haha… What a coincidence, Peter.”
“Eileen Reid?” Peter was genuinely surprised. “What are you doing here? Why are you hiding in the bushes?”
“Well…” Eileen tried to play the fool as she looked around. “I have a lot of free time lately and I’m wandering around, trying to explore new sceneries.”
Peter then pointed at the bushes. “Are you telling me that there are nice sceneries around here? Are you going crazy from all the acting or are you trying to fool me?”
“I’m not fooling you!” Eileen said with a sweet smile. “You misunderstood me, Mr. Hall.”
“There’s another person there!” Peter said coldly.
Eileen pulled Sophia. “Stop hiding. He saw you.”
Sophia stood up while covering her face. “I don’t know anything. Ms. Reid dragged me here.”
Eileen almost couldn’t smile anymore.
Peter stared at Sophia for a moment before saying, “I know you. You work for Conrad.”
Sophia put down her hands and said, “Yes. You have quite the good memory.”
“Why are you hiding here?” he said with a blank face and then looked at the Thomas residence. “Who are you looking for?”
“No one. We’re just taking a walk,” Sophia said.
“Eileen,” Peter said as he glared at her. “Tell me.”
Eileen suddenly felt unsure of what to do.
Sophia had just told her that Peter helped Esme assume her new identity.

The readers' comments on the novel: Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad)
I had known that the ending would be like this , I would never had read this book. It didn’t have a right ending at all. Made no sense. Don’t waste your time....
Evil should never win and Lucifer has harmed far to many....
This should not end this way. Fia, rather than following Lucifer’s evil path should reflect and realize that she has always loved Conrad and he has always loved her. Their problems were due to the interference of others, Beryl, Esme etc . Since she is the only one that can approach Lucifer, she and Peter should cooperate with each other, kill Lucifer and evil Beryl, Peter can remove the toxins/ poison from everyone and each will be able to live normal lives without interfering with others relationship's. The children deserve their real father who will love them dearly and provide and protect them with the life they deserve. Gia has been a fool since the beginning and has believed everyone but her beloved husband. Please end this on a good note, that is why we all read these stories, everyone loves a happy ending....
