Chapter 722
Fia’s question did not come out of the blue. She knew that the Starling family had a monopoly in the marine business.
Even today, the Starlings were still the main powerhouse at sea. Of course, they were able to remain this strong because Conrad gave way to them whenever it involved marine business.
She did not know the entire story. She also did not know what Garrett, her father-in-law, and Clarice, Jason’s mother, thought about this whole incident.
However, when she learned of this from Jason yesterday, Fia realized that Beryl was a woman who lacked good conscience. On the contrary, Clarice was able to raise a kind and gentle person like Jason. So, she must be a good person. At the very least, she was not a bad person.
Frankly, now that she thought about it, Clarice probably willingly carried the foul reputation as a ”
homewrecker” because she thought she had wronged Beryl. So, it was natural for Clarice to not suspect the Starlings.
And her father-in-law… Although Conrad kept saying how heartless and irresponsible Garrett was, he had raised Jason into such a good man. It was quite likely that Garrett was a man of good conscience. He probably felt sorry for Beryl and Conrad. So, even if he had found out what Beryl did, he let it go. His daughter was already dead and he did not want Clarice to live a sad life holding onto vengeance. Thus, -he hid the truth from her.
Therefore, Fia came here to talk about it. Beryl was currently under the influence of alcohol. So, this was a golden opportunity for her to uncover the truth.
“Who sent you to ask me this? Was it that wrench, Clarice?! Heh, she is too scared to confront me so she sent you, huh?! What? That heartless Garrett has lost control of this witch, am I right? So, she’s now coming to avenge her daughter!” Beryl screeched hysterically, as though she was going mad.
Fla’s ears hurt hearing her screeching. She let out a long sigh and said, “No one sent me here. It’s just that I got curious after hearing bits of the story. That’s why I came here, to ask you.”
“Ha! Who do you think you are? This doesn’t concern you at all!” Beryl glared at her with blood-shot eyes and continued yelling at her, “You don’t have the right to ask about this! If there’s anyone who has the right, it’s Garrett and that Evans slut! Tell them to come here and ask me themselves! Ha! It’s been twenty years! I’m impressed that they have so much patience!”
“Has this ever crossed your mind?” Fia tilted her head.
“What?!”
“Watching one’s own child die hurts so much that it could kill a person. Ms. Evans cried so much that she went blind for an entire year. Yet, they never suspected you. Do you know why?”
Fia’s words piqued Beryl’s interest.
“Why?” Beryl widened her eyes. “Garrett is so heartless that he left me. Why is it that after their daughter died he never came to seek revenge on me and my family?”
“Because they thought they were in the wrong.” Fia smirked at her sarcastically. “Because they are much kinder than you. So, they don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore.”
“Bullsh*t!” Beryl yelled, “If they are so good and kind, they would have never gotten together! That slut was originally my best friend! Yet, she came and stole my husband from me!”
Fia was shocked to hear Beryl and Clarice’s past.
“God could not stand to see this further. So, that’s why He took their daughter from them! This is their punishment!”
“Fine, let’s say it’s the will of God. Now, can you swear to God that you never pulled strings to sabotage the rescue?” Fia asked.
Beryl thought about what happened back then. She had learned that Garrett was bringing his new family on a cruise. So, she furiously went onboard to confront them. She made a huge scene and ruined the feast.
She had no intention to make that little girl lose her life.
Yeah! It was that little girl’s fault! It’s her own fault! Because she did not stay in bed like a good girl. That was why she got pushed into the ocean.

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....
