Chapter 724
In Beryl’s eyes, Conrad and Fia leaving was like the shadow of Garrett and Clarice leaving together!
Beryl and Clarice had met Garett, and they became fast friends at the same time. Clarice’s family was not as wealthy as hers. Yet, Garrett was so foolish. He fell in love with Clarice!
So, to claim Garrett from Clarice, Beryl used every connection and pulled every string her family had to force him to marry her. And it worked. They did get married. Yet, after getting married, Garrett became a lady’s man and went flirting with every woman he met out there.
Still, Beryl tolerated him because she knew those women were not really his type. However, Clarice appeared again, and Garrett turned back into the perfect gentleman who loved only one woman. And the woman he chose was Clarice!
“Why?!” Beryl said to herself, “Why did not he not choose me? Why do I have to suffer all this? To lose my love and see them living happily ever after?!”
This was so unfair!
Meanwhile, in the car, Fia stared at Conrad who had shown no emotion since they stepped out of the house. She smiled at him. “It’s still early. Maybe we should visit Match and Heaven?”
“Sure,” Conrad agreed. Yet, he was still thinking about what Fia and his mother had talked about earlier at the house. He never knew that Jason had a sister. However, he knew his own mother very well.
“Conrad, are you okay?” Fia was worried when she saw him frowning.
Conrad pulled to park by the side of the road. Then, he turned to look at Fia. “Did that really happen?”
Fia instantly understood what he was asking about. He was asking about Jason’s sister.
“Yes. That really happened. Evans had a little sister who fell into the ocean. Her body was never found. To be frank, the chance of finding her body is really slim to begin with because it’s the ocean… There is a lot of carnivorous sea life…”
And then, she stopped talking, unable to finish her deduction.
Conrad said, “And Mom… Did she really stop them from rescuing the kid?”
Fia felt sorry for Conrad. The reason she asked him to go downstairs was so that he did not have to hear this. She was careless. She should have checked to see if he really did go downstairs. Conrad was always a cautious person and it was very likely that he would not stay too far from her.
“This has nothing to do with you.” She gave him a hug and patted on his back. “It’s not your fault. Your didn’t do anything wrong.”
Conrad felt conflicted. “I’ve always hated them. I assured that Mom was the victim all this time.”
Fia tightened her embrace. “You didn’t know. It isn’t your fault.”
Conrad reciprocated the hug. He said in an excruciating tone, “This is so maddening. They were all in the wrong!”
“Conrad,” Fia said to him with a heavy heart. “There is nothing right or wrong in love. Everyone has their own wound to attend to. It’s not that clear cut.”
Conrad took in a deep breath, taking in Fia’s serene scent. This gradually calmed him down.
“I’m okay now.” He let go of her and lightly pinched her face. Then, he took her to buy their grandparents’ favorite food and some wine before going to their graves. They went to Grandpa Maxwell’s grave first and
Thea’s next.
Conrad was a person of few words. It was Fia who spoke a lot to their late grandparents. It felt as though she was chatting with them. She told them about all the good news. How the company was doing well and how she and Conrad had been getting along. Listening to her chatter, Conrad’s expression turned gentle and warm.
“Grandma, Conrad and I will come see you again. Please get along with Grandpa Maxwell in the heavens. Don’t fight with him every time you two meet. If you do, make sure you reconcile by the end of the day!” Before leaving, Fia took a good look at her grandmother’s
shoh on her grave and added, “Please

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....
