Eileen suddenly looked at Victor and smiled, saying, "Except for that ruthless man."
Victor was speechless.
He knew she was referring to him.
The private room door was closed, and no one would know what she came to talk to him about.
Eileen bit her lip quietly and gathered the courage to speak. "Victor, what you owe me can never be repaid."
"Yeah, I know," he replied.
He took a sip of coffee and looked at her, asking, "What do you want?"
Eileen blinked and found it difficult to speak for a moment.
"I owe you, and as long as it's something I can do, I'll help you with it."
Their eyes met, and she suddenly wanted to ask if he was the one who had been following her all these years.
But even if she asked, what difference would it make?
He was a married man and the one who had hurt her.
Wasn’t Fia’s tragedy enough to wake her up?
“There is something. I think it shouldn't be too difficult," she continued.
"Tell me," Victor said, sipping his coffee with a detached attitude.
Eileen took a breath and said, "I want your cousin to regain his memory as soon as possible. Sally injected him with a substance that hasn't been stimulating his brain enough. I need you to help me get that drug."
Victor was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Sally can't get it?"
"She got it from her brother, and he's on guard now that he knows," Eileen replied.
Victor lowered his head and asked. "Does it do any harm to Conrad’s body?"
"It's possible," Eileen replied sarcastically. "His mother has been controlling him with drugs all along, did you know that? It's his mother who prevented him from regaining his memory."
"Actually, I think it's a good thing if he doesn't remember," Victor said, thinking back to the devastated Conrad he had seen in the hospital. "The impact of Fia’s death five years ago was immense. He couldn't even live with himself."
"Didn't realize you suddenly had such deep feelings for him," Eileen remarked. "You didn't treat him like a cousin before!"
The waiter knocked on the door and came in to serve the dishes. Both of them fell silent.
After the dishes were served and the waiter left, Victor broke the silence.

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....
