Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083 

“Come quietly now!” Wilfred and his colleagues put a pair of handcuffs on Esme and brought her to a police car nearby. 

When he walked past Fia, he told one of his colleagues, “You bring Ms. Lawson back to the station.” 

“Certainly.” 

Then, Wilfred and his partner drove Esme straight to the station. 

Sitting on the ground, Fia smiled faintly at the two police officers that were approaching her. “What did I do to deserve the arrest?” 

A police officer said, “It’s about that video that Mr. Maxwell had released online. We need your assistance to investigate the matter further.” 

Fia asked curiously, “Is it true that Beth Lawson’s dead?” 

“Yes, ma’am.” 

“Was I the one who killed her?” 

“No. At first, the doctors were able to save her through a surgery but she became a vegetable soon after. Then, a round of blackout caused her to suffocate and die.” 

The officer then said to her gently, “Ma’am, Director Parker promised that he’ll look into this matter personally. We need to bring you back to the station so we can help you clear your name.” 

“Is it necessary though?” Fia pulled out the sedative needle from her arm and said, “That night… I hit Beth Lawson because she had provoked me to the point of me losing control of my actions. Instead of clearing my name, I think you should get a psychiatrist to diagnose me and send me to an asylum.” 

Finishing her words, Fia began to giggle eerily. 

The police officers looked at one another, not knowing how to respond. 

A moment later, one of them said, “Ma’am… Ms. Lawson, we’re not here to make fun of you. Please, come with us to the station.” 

“Director Parker had ordered us to not hand-cuff you. Please cooperate with us.” 

Fia sighed, wanting to oblige to their request. However, she felt cold and restless after going through so much that night. So, as she was struggling to stand up, she stumbled and laid on the ground. 

Seeing Fia fall to the ground, the officers stepped forward, wanting to help her up. It was then that someone striked their necks from the back, incapacitating them. 

Laying on the ground, Fia smiled. “You’ve been following me all this time, haven’t you?” “Clever girl.” 

The man slowly walked into view from the dark. 

Fia asked, “Why did you not appear sooner? Let me guess. You want to see who’d live, right?” 

“I want to see you live, of course. How could I bear to see you die? You see, if you could not defeat Esme, or when she was about to kill you, I would shoot her dead without hesitation!” 

“Hmph.” 

Fia did not believe a word he said. After all, the reason her life was in total chaos was all thanks to Esme. And Esme had Peter’s help, who, in turn, was helped by this man! 

The man squatted down and caressed her face. 

“It’s okay. It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe me. I’ll never let anything happen to you.” Somehow, there was a longing tenderness in his voice, as though he had feelings for her. 

Turning her face away, Fia said, “You can stop with your act now. You and I aren’t close.” 

The man sighed. “Your body’s too frail right now. We need to contact the hospital and get prepared for the ‘show’. Time is of the essence.” 

Fia smiled as she stared at the man’s mask. 

“I wonder… just how ugly you are that you’d wear this mask all the time.” 

The man stifled a laugh and said, “Oh, you want to see my face? Sure, you’ll get to see it. But not tonight.”
