“Uncle?” After Adrian served his sister, he offered the popcorn to Conrad.
Conrad shook his head. "You guys can eat. I'm an adult. I won't be eating anymore."
“You are just like our mother,” Adrian said quietly as he turned his head to look at the kitchen. “Are all you adults so boring? You don’t eat much good food!”
“Perhaps.” Conrad smiled.
“That isn’t the case!” Irene interjected. “Some adults love snacks, eating till they are like big fatties!”
“Woof! Woof! Woof!” Milo, who was hiding and sleeping, came running over, barking at Adrian.
Adrian snuck a peek at the kitchen and then grabbed a handful of popcorn before putting it on the floor for Milo to eat.
Irene saw it and said, “Adrian, don’t feed Milo these. Mommy said that his fur will fall off. When the time comes, the house will be full of fur and even Milo will not feel comfortable!”
Adrian looked at Irene in astonishment. “Why did you say so much at one go?”
Irene said proudly, “Because I’m amazing!”
Adrian blinked and suddenly said out of curiosity, “Then should we try and give you a prick?”
“Why?” Irene stared at her brother, baffled.
“Perhaps you wouldn’t bleed non-stop,” Adrian said seriously.
Irene felt that he was right and she immediately got off the sofa to take her mother’s sewing kit.
Just as Conrad was still at a loss, she took a needle and passed it on to Adrian. Adrian pricked the back of her hand.
The wound was very small and very shallow, but the small dot of blood slowly grew.
Conrad immediately noticed that things weren’t going well. He did not blame Adrian, but instead he pressed Irene’s wound.
Adrian was shocked and he shrieked loudly. “Mommy, Irene is bleeding!”
The sound of something falling came from the kitchen and Fia came running over speedily.
“What is going on? How can she bleed while eating popcorn?!”
She saw Conrad pressing on the back of Irene’s left hand and blood was flowing nonstop, dying his hand red.

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....
