Chapter 251
“You…”
“Excuse me!” Suddenly, several police officers walked in.
There was anger sparking in Conrad’s eyes. “Who told you to come in?!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Maxwell. They said that Mrs. Maxwell is the mastermind. We need to take her back to the station to help with the investigation.”
“Out!” Conrad let go of Fia and turned around, staring at them. “Nothing like that had happened!”
“This is not something negligible, Mr. Maxwell. Ms. Manning suffered grievous injuries. After what she did to the victim…”
“Fia’s my wife. I know her. She would never do that!”
Fia looked at Conrad’s tall figure in confusion.
How interesting. When he barged in just now, he questioned her.
But when the police officers came in, he protected her.
Maybe because she was his wife?
Maybe because he was worried that she would disgrace the Maxwells?
Yes. That must be it.
She couldn’t think of any reasons other than that.
“Mr. Maxwell, please don’t interfere with our job. What Ms. Manning had experienced tonight was very cruel. There is nothing you can do to suppress this. All of them said that Mrs. Maxwell was the one that paid them to do it. Mrs. Maxwell is the prime suspect in this case.”
Fia quietly listened and smiled.
Conrad then turned around and asked, “What are you smiling about?”
“Nothing.” She shrugged. The reason that she smiled was because she had underestimated Lola. “No need to stop them. I’ll go with them.”
“No! The baby in your womb can’t take it.” Conrad turned around and explained to the officers how Fia was having difficulty with her pregnancy.
The officers exchanged a glance and in the end they decided to have Fia help with the investigation in the ward.
“Mr. Maxwell, other than the doctors and nurses, we cannot allow anyone to see Mrs. Maxwell for now.”
Conrad wanted to argue with them but a nurse ran in.
“Mr. Maxwell, Ms. Manning is bleeding but she refuses to cooperate with the blood transfusion. She wants to see you!”
Fia smiled and said calmly, “That’s fine. Go to Esme Manning. I don’t need you here.”
Conrad looked at Fia and realized how nonsensical everything was.
Esme relied on him a lot. He had just managed to find the time to see her away from Esme, but she didn’t even give him a smile.
Even then, he couldn’t give up on her.
“Don’t worry. I’ll explain everything after I’m done with the surgery. You’re innocent. You won’t do something like that.”
Fia looked at Conrad quietly.
Could she believe him?

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....
