Chapter 1114
“I haven’t considered that you might have a family… or that you already have children. If I knew that, I wouldn’t have come to ask something so horrendous from you,” Elleen explained. “It’s alright.” Fia stood up and said, “Allow me to see you off, Ms. Reid.”
“Certainly. Again, I’m terribly sorry.” Eileen apologized as she walked toward the door.
Suddenly…
“Mommy, who’s she?”
Adrian asked as he stepped into the living room barefooted, rubbing his eyes drowsily.
Fia hurried to him and asked, “Adrian, why aren’t you wearing your slippers? You could catch. a cold!”
Then, she quickly went to her son’s room to bring him his slippers. Eileen and Adrian, on the other hand, were staring at one another in the living room.
“Who are you?” Adrian asked curiously.
Feeling an intense warmth from meeting the boy, Eileen stepped toward him, squatted down and spoke to him gently, “Hello, my name is Eileen Reid. I’m a superstar.”
“Eileen Reid?” Adrian blinked and stared at her momentarily before yelping in surprise, “Oh, I know you! Mommy has a magazine that’s got you on it! You’re an actor, aren’t you?”
Eileen was surprised to hear that. “Why, yes. Yes, I am!”
“My twin sister’s name is Irene! Her name sounds just like yours!” Adrian said joyfully.
Eileen caught a whiff of something fishy from the boy’s words. “Wait, really?”
“Yeah!” Adrian turned and asked his mother, who stepped out of his room with his slippers, Mommy, isn’t that right? Irene’s name sounds just like Auntie Eileen’s name!”
Fia lowered her head to avoid looking at Eileen while helping Adrian put on his slippers. Then, she slapped his bottom and hissed, “Go to bed!”
“Mommy… “Adrian looked at his mother pitifully. ‘Geez, what is up with Mommy? She’s so fierce tonight!’
“I said, go to bed!” Fia said to Adrian sternly. Not daring to defy his mother, Adrian took. another look at Eileen before stepping into his bedroom.
Closing the bedroom’s door, Fia turned and faced Eileen.
“I’ll see you out, Ms. Reid.”
Eileen tilted her head as she took another good, long look at Fia before saying, “My friend was carrying her twins before she died. If she’s still alive, I wonder… could she also have a boy and a girl like yours…”
“Your friend has passed on, Ms. Reid. It’s no use making speculations,” Fia said coldly.
“Could you tell me your name, please?” Eileen asked as she kept on staring at Fia.
Fia could see the tears welling in her old friend’s eyes. It was quite apparent that Eileen’s pain. of losing her dearest friend was beginning to resurface after all these years.
Fia looked away and dodged the question. “You’re probing too much, Ms. Reid.”
“Can we… Can we be friends?” Eileen yelped out her question, sobbing. She had a hunch, a strong one, that this woman’s resemblance to Fia was not a coincidence.

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....
