Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 1058

“Yeah, that’s right. Aren’t you happy, Mom?”

Esme’s smile was so sweet yet so terrifyingly creepy. She gently caressed Beth’s hair and said, “You’ve been through so much for me, Mom. From now onward, you can’t move anywhere other than your head.”

“…”

Beth began tearing up silently as she heard that.

Esme continued on whispering in her ear. “You’ve acted so tough all your life. You never thought you’d end up like this, huh?”

“…”

In that instance, Beth felt something was off.

“Allow me to release you from your torment, Mom.”

Under the surveillance camera, Esme seemed like she was caressing her mother’s arm gently. She knew where the camera was facing. She knew where to face so that her mouth would not be filmed. So, no one could read her lips when they watched the footage later.

“Esme…” Beth called out to her daughter anxiously.

Sacrificing herself for her daughter was one thing. However, having her life taken by her daughter was something she could not bear.

Esme beamed at her prettily as she said, “Dad is going to be punished for his betrayal. Don’t you worry, Mom.”

Beth yelped as tears welled up in her eyes, “No… No!”

Suddenly, darkness enveloped the entire hospital. There was a sudden blackout! Having a blackout in a hospital was a life-and-death matter as even just a few seconds could result in the loss of a life.

“Help!” Esme rushed out of the intensive care unit anxiously. By the time she stepped out of the door, a doctor and nurse were already running to this ward.

“What’s wrong?” The doctor was extremely anxious. Mr. Maxwell had ordered the hospital to take good care of this patient.

“There’s a blackout all of a sudden. And… And Mrs. Manning seems out of breath! Quick! Help her!” Esme said tearfully, seemingly saddened by the turn of events.

It was true that she felt sad. On top of that, she was feeling guilt and fear too. Still, she could not let others see through her other feelings. So, she made her sadness extra apparent to the doctor.

A few minutes later, the doctor walked out of the ward defeatedly.
