Chapter 700
“Hello.” Fia did her best to suppress her overwhelming anxiety as she opened her mouth.
The phone number had been cancelled a while ago. Perhaps, it now had a new owner.
“Hi, cousie.” A prideful and snobbish woman’s voice could be heard from the phone.
Fia immediately thought of Esme Manning. Still, weirdly, she also thought of Britney Thomas.
“You’re Britney, aren’t you?”
Although she had her suspicions that Britney was actually Esme, hearing this voice made her head spin in confusion.
A smirk could be heard from the phone. “Oh, weren’t you the one who’d decided who I am?”
“Britney! You’re Esme Manning, aren’t you?!”
“Would you believe me if I say I’m not?” the woman taunted.
“Oh, yes, that’s right. The last time I returned from overseas, Conrad immediately wanted to divorce you, am I right? Now, let’s play a game, shall we? If he knows I’m still alive, will he ask to divorce you again this time?”
Fia shook in anger as she clenched her phone.
“After all, men are such despicable dogs. They only know how to treasure something after they’ve lost it. Perhaps, Conrad had already regretted not saving me. If he knows I’m still alive, do you think he will
realize he actually loves me, and treasure me more?”
After finishing her words, the woman hung up the phone.
Fia spent a few seconds fuming before dialling Conrad’s number with her shaky hand.
No one answered.
Her head was now in a complete mess. As Esme’s words still echoed in her head, Fia copied that number and sent it to Jason.
Jason quickly responded to Fia’s message, as he had set Fia’s messages as “important” on his phone.
Finding out where the call was from via GPS was not a big deal for Kent.
Five minutes later, Jason received Kent’s reply. Hence, he gave Fia a call.
“Fia, whose number is it?”
Fia asked hurriedly, “Did you find out where?”
“River Fane,” Jason replied with a stern voice. “Whose number is it?”
Fia was completely stunned upon hearing that. Esme died at River Fane, did she not? And now, her number called from that exact location? This was impossible. Could she have turned into a ghost and called her?
Overwhelmed by desperation, Fia yelled to her phone, “No! It’s impossible! There’s no ghost…! There’s no ghost in this world…! She’s still alive! She must be!”
A frown curved on Jason’s face. “It’s Esme’s number, isn’t it?”
“Yes! She just gave me a call! She’s still alive!” Fia rushed to her wardrobe to change as she continued
talking to Jason.
Jason said cautiously, “Fia, calm down. This could be a trap. Stay at home. I’ll get Conrad to handle this!”
“No, I must go to River Fane! I must find Esme!” Fia hung up, changed her clothes, and ran downstairs. without even bothering tidying up her hair.

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....
