The phone rang a couple of seconds before someone picked up.
“Daddy, Irene bled. I pricked her.”
At that moment, Lucifer was just about to leave the house. Hearing his words, he opened the door and re-entered the house, sitting down in the living room.
He asked carefully, “What is going on? Did your mother and sister bully you?”
“No. Sob, sob, sob. Sister suddenly called Mommy properly and she could speak much better than before. I thought that her sickness would be cured, so I pricked her to try to test it out. It was a very shallow prick, but still a lot of blood came out.”
Adrian was crying so hard that he almost lost his childishness.
Conrad stared at Adrian quietly, guessing what the man on the other end of the line was saying from his response.
“Daddy, it’s my fault! I harmed Irene.”
Lucifer said, “The one who knows not is not guilty of his crime. You also did it for her sake. Irene will understand. Where are you now? Who are you with?”
“Mommy brought Irene to the hospital. I’m at home alone. Oh, no… There’s another mister here too,” Adrian explained honestly.
“Mister?” A hint of sarcasm appeared on Lucifer’s face. “Why is he at your house?”
Adrian cried as he explained their fate with Conrad.
The mockery on Lucifer’s face increased. “Adrian, do you think that this mister is kind and reliable?”
Adrian looked at Conrad. “He’s quite okay. He’s also very pitiful. One of his legs isn't clever.”
Conrad raised a brow. A child was still a child. How could his broken leg be described as clever? He should have said agile.
“Ahaha, he's a lame?!” Lucifer laughed madly.
Adrian’s face turned red. He covered the phone, wanting to hide and said very softly. “Daddy, you can’t say that. He’s already pitiful enough.”
“Hahaha! There are so many disabled people in the streets. Is he as pitiful as they are?”
Adrian was stunned as he looked at Conrad quietly.
Conrad smiled at him. “Adrian, is there a problem?”

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....
