Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 1000

“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.
