Chapter 1116
“Yeah? Well, I’ll pass!” Kent replied impatiently.
He was so pissed. How could his close friends, every single one of them, all still dwell on Fia’s death after five freaking years?! It felt as though Fia’s death was still haunting them, especially today!
Eileen understood Kent’s frustration. After all, his childhood friend had fallen into despair and changed into a completely different man. Yet, as his best friend, Kent could do nothing to help him. If this happened to Fia, she would be frustrated too.
“I’m sorry. I promise I’ll try to keep it in the next time we meet.”
Kent frowned. “We’ve known each other for so many years. So, I’d like you to trust me when I Say
I’m really concerned for you. You and Jase shouldn’t dwell on the past like this anymore. It’s bad enough that you’d lost Fia. Don’t tell me you want to lose yourself too! Move on! You still have a lot to look forward to in life!”
Resting her head against the car’s window, Eileen said nonchalantly, “It’s not easy to get a best friend like Fia. The world becomes so gray and bleak after she’s gone.’
“You still have someone who loves you, your coworkers! You haven’t lost everyone. Even though they don’t seem to be as important as Fia, they still genuinely care for you.” Kent comforted her, “Like me, Lyn, and… Victor.”
Eileen rolled her eyes at him. “Hmph, what did he bribe you with this time?”
“He didn’t bribe me.” Kent sighed. “It’s just that when I see you living all alone like this, 1 can’t help but worry for you.”
“I’d rather be alone than be with him.”
Eileen spoke as she closed her eyes, feeling fatigue when she thought of Victor.
Victor had done a lot for her in the past five years, yet he never appeared before her asking for her appreciation. Of course, she would not feel grateful for it. She had suffered too much being his underground lover back then.
That one time of him asking her to abort her baby alone was enough to make her lose. drop of adulation she had for him!

“Find a secluded bar and drop me there,” Eileen said.
Checking his watch, Kent realized that Eileen had a day off the next day. She probably wanted to have a few drinks to destress. Frankly, she really needed it.
Thus, he drove straight to a bar that he knew. It was a secluded yet safe establishment to get a drink. The security was so tight that only registered members and their guests were allowed in. After scanning his member card at the door, Kent led Eileen to a VIP lounge upstairs. Putting on her face mask, Eileen noticed that there were not many customers hanging out up there.
“Geez, there are not many customers here. What kind of bar is this?”
“Only VIPs are allowed here.”
Kent then led her to a balcony where she could have a great view of the floor below. He asked after seeing her impressed eyes above her mask, “So, what do
you think?”
“Not bad.”
There was a bar counter nearby that served a lot of high-end wines.
“Go on. Be my guest. They’re all from my private stash.”
Eileen took a glance at him. “So this is the place you come whenever you need to get drunk?”
“I only come here occasionally. This bar takes great care in protecting its customers’ privacy. So, you don’t need to worry about being recognized in public here.”

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....
