Chapter 652
Barbara rushed out of the hospital, feeling immensely hurt and furious. Her hands shook so much she could not even drive properly.
As she tried to calm herself down, Fia popped into Barbara’s mind. She quickly dialed her
number.
Fia was chatting away happily with Mary. Suddenly, her phone rang. Fia picked up the phone
and stood.
“Yes, Madam Barbara.”
“She’s changed.”
Fia frowned upon hearing this. She had no idea what Barbara’s words meant.
“Our Britney was a kind and gentle girl when she was younger. She was highly principled and a moral stalwart. She would never try to go after a married man. On top of that, she would never talk to me like that…”
Fia’s heart sank as she heard this. “So, you’re saying Britney was indeed trying to seduce my husband?”
“No, it’s impossible!” Barbara raised her voice as she retorted, “It’s impossible for her to act like that! She’s not like my sister! She’s not!”
“Madam Barbara, may I know where you are right now?” Fia could feel that Barbara’s emotions were unstable at the moment. She could not help but worry for her.
“How about you come to
you come to my house? Let’s talk, alright?”
Hearing Fia’s caring words, Barbara’s anxious and alarmed mind began to calm down a little.
“I’m fine. I just need time to calm down and think it over.”
“Alright. I can help you apply for leave.”
“Apply for leave? Heh, Mr. Maxwell wanted me to resign, remember?”
“He only said that out of spite. He did not mean it. If you are not disillusioned by trickeries, he wants you to remain in the company more than anyone.” Fia defended her husband with wonderfully sugar-coated words.
Feeling warmth in her heart, Barbara earnestly said, “Don’t you worry. Even though I did not like you before, I know you are a wonderful wife to Mr. Maxwell. It was our boss’s greatest fortune to have met and married you. I wish you both a long, happy married life.”
“Thank you.”
“still, so much has happened recently, I can’t stay in Maxwell Corporation any longer. I’ll resign.”
“Then, where do you plan to go?” Fia asked nervously.
husband’s
A smile curved up on Barbara’s face as she replied, “You’re afraid that I’ll join your rival? Don’t worry. I still haven’t lost my principles. Look, I’m not a young lass like you anymore. I’m now in my thirties and I’ve been working tirelessly until now. I’ve never got time for myself all these years.
“I’ve earned a lot of money in Maxwell Corporation a lot more than I would have in other companies. It’s time I take a rest for a bit, to see the world.”
After hanging up, Fia took some time to digest what Barbara had said before telling Mary that she was heading upstairs.
In the study, Conrad and Tyler were discussing work.
Tyler asked anxiously, “It might be best not to put pressure on like this, Conrad. If this goes on, your cousin will have to use some forceful measures to acquire this hotel!”
“But this hotel belongs to the Lanes, am I right?”
“Well, yes. Fine… if you’re not bothered by it, then I’m fine with moving along with the plan.”
Fia was gluing her ears closed to the half-closed door, overhearing the discussion. This reminded her of that hotel in Oceania.
“Fia? What’s the matter?” Conrad saw the sneaky silhouette at the door. He stood. stepped out of the study.

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....
