Chapter 603
Conrad, seeing that Fia had begun to ponder on the matter, knew that he needed to talk with her about it. Or else, she would not set her mind at rest leaving the project to them.
“Come here. I’ll tell you about it.”
Fia pouted. “No! You’ll get naughty and start touching me all over again!”
“Alright.” Conrad smiled and stood up from his seat and walked toward her.
*Fia panicked and hugged a pillow nearby.
“Hey, I’m warning you! You better not slack off from work!”
“I’m not slacking off. I just want to pat my dear wife.”
“Ah!” He caressed her at those “right” spots again! Fia hit him with the pillow in her hands and pouted. “I’ll get mad if you don’t stop this nonsense at once!”
“Alright, alright. I’ll stop.” He scooped her up from her chair and brought her to the guest sofa in the office’s living area.
He cuddled with her and warned her lightly. “Fi… If you keep struggling like this, I’m afraid I may just lose it and have my way with you.
Fia froze as she felt that his body heat was warmer than usual.
“There was nothing wrong with your designs for the project. You are as capable as they get in designing those. Besides, if there’s anyone who’d oppose using your designs, I’ll always side with you and shut them down. Don’t worry about what others think. Focus on what you want to do and continue with your creative work. If they think you’re not up for it, then prove them wrong with your work. Alright?”
As he spoke softly to her, Conrad gently pinched her waist. “Focus on your designs. Leave the
rest to me.”
“I… I just worry that the management would think you’ve lost your head just to please me.’
“I don’t care what they think.” Conrad then thought about Argonauts Corp. “Argonauts Corp. has been using the designs from the same person since its founding. Their brand still stands proudly in the market to this day.”
“Oh, I’ve heard of this story!” Fia raised her hand gleefully. “Rumor has it that the boss of Argonauts Corp loves his wife so much that he started the ‘Gentle Stream’ brand. And every design of this brand was drawn entirely by his wife!”
“Exactly.” Conrad’s eyes turned cold. He did admire Argonauts Corp’s means of survival in this harsh and brutal business world. However, he couldn’t find anything admirable in that boss and his vixen wife.
“Do you know the boss of Argonauts Corp?” Fla did not catch Conrad’s displeasure of mentioning that company’s boss and curiously asked, “Who is he? Legend says that he’s already in his fifties or sixties! Is it true?”
Conrad closed his eyes and asked, “Why are you interested in his age?”
“It’s just that I think this story is very romantic. I wonder if he was a young lad. Or maybe, he’s on the older side?”
Conrad pressed the inner of his mouth with his tongue before answering, “He’s in his sixties.”
-“Oh, then perhaps when you meet him next time, can you bring me along too?”
“Why do you want to meet him?”
“Teehee, actually… I want to meet his wife. I’m just curious about what kind of woman she is. That a business tycoon like him would sacrifice so many business opportunities just to please his wife!”
“How do you know he had given up on opportunities though?” Conrad’s eyes became as chill
as ice.
Fia had herself tightly in his embrace, so she could not see Conrad’s expression. All she knew was that he was speaking softly to her.
She did not know that her husband was now in a really foul mood.

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....
