Britney looked away. “What if Conrad wants to help Esme? What should we do?”
Barbara recalled Fia’s suggestion. “Then we’ll ask Finn for help! The Parkers owe me, and I’ll tell him everything! If he still has a heart, he will help us!”
Britney shook her head. “Barbara, I don’t want to drag you into this.”
Barbara wrapped her arms around her. “You’re not dragging me into anything. That woman knows how to get on our parents’ good side. If this continues, she’ll eventually take over everything that our family owns. I can’t let that happen!”
When Britney thought about her father, she asked, “Dad… Didn’t hesitate in accepting her as me at all?”
“Ha! It’ll be weird if he grew suspicious at all. He wished both of us would put profit first even since he was little. Esme… She suits his every expectation!” As Barbara said that, she logged into her home’s security system through her phone and deleted the footage without raising any alarm.
Around nine at night, Esme remained awake waiting for Mr. Thomas to return home.
When he got home, she limped toward him to help him take his briefcase.
“Why are you home so late tonight, Dad? Are you tired?”
“You’re the best, unlike Barbara. She has never been this considerate!”
After Mr. Thomas sat down, Esme limped away in front of him.
“Dad, you must be tired. Do you want me to give you a massage?”
“It’s fine. What’s with your legs?” he asked.
“When I was coming home earlier tonight and stopped my car, someone covered my head with a bag and dragged me into the bushes and hit me,” Esme said pitifully.
Mr. Thomas was angered. “What is the meaning of this?! I’ll check and see who did that!”
He immediately took out his phone and used the app to log into the residence’s security system. He muttered, “Strange… Why is footage around eight at night gone?”
Esme pretended to be shocked and said, “What happened? Don’t tell me they could even access our home’s security system?”
Mr. Thomas was immediately suspicious of Barbara. ‘Why did she do that?’
Didn’t she love her sister the most?

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....
