Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 784

Chapter 784 

“Go. Leave and return to the Thomases.” Peter pulled his hand away from Esme’s embrace. Esme looked at him pitifully. “Aren’t you sending me there?” 

“I’ll pay you a visit later,” Peter responded coldly. 

Esme was so glad to hear this. Still, she maintained her pitiful, puppy face. “Okay. I’ll wait for you. If you don’t come to me, I’ll stay up at night and keep on waiting for you.” 

Peter nodded and saw her off. Then, he returned to his laboratory and dialed his home’s number. 

Upon picking the phone, Mrs. Hall spoke into the phone anxiously, “Peter, Sally and Britney went out for lunch. And they’re not back yet! Could Sally have run off with that man?!” 

Mrs. Hall’s words battered on Peter’s guilty conscience as he recalled the lie he made to confine Sally at home. 

“Mom, it’s a misunderstanding. Sally has never had a boyfriend before and she’s not pregnant. I’m sorry. I’ve made a mistake.” 

“Huh?!” Mrs. Hall was confused and furious upon hearing this. “A mistake? How could you make a mistake like that?! No wonder Sally insisted that she’s not pregnant…! You’re her brother! How could you ruin her good name like that before investigating?! Thank God I haven’t told your father yet. He would be so pissed to hear this!” 

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.” 

“Where’s Sally right now?” 

“She’s back at the hospital.” 

“I see. So you two have made peace?” 

“Yes. Sally’s always been close to me. She forgave me after I apologized to her.” 

“Sally has always idolized you since she’s a baby! Don’t make a mistake like that ever again! Sigh. Sally’s always been busy with work. How would she find the time to date anyone? I’ve even tried to introduce her to some good men. But she never agreed to meet them.” 

Hearing this, Peter could not help but to hate Jason so much. His little sister was such a kind, lovely lady. Yet this piece of sh*t was so stupid and blind to not see that! 

“Mom, Sally had missed work for so many days. She might not be able to come home this week.” 

“Alright. It’s not uncommon for her to not come home for weeks due to work. But she would still give me a phone call from time to time.” After learning that her daughter was not pregnant nor did she plan to elope with a man, Mrs. Hall felt relieved and could not stop talking about how good a daughter she was. 

Peter understood what his mother was trying to say. He carefully opened his mouth, “Mom, I’d like to talk about something. It’s about me.” 

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re going overseas again? But you’ve just come back.” 

“It’s about me and Britney.” When he mentioned her name, Peter sighed as he recalled the real Britney. 

Mrs. Hall asked, “What are you sighing for? No… Did Britney confess to you? And you rejected her? How could you hurt that girl like that…?” 

“Mom…” 11
