Chapter 790
“The Halls was one of the worst hits. Doctor Sally’s father jumped off a building when he couldn’t handle the stress. However, he didn’t die from it. Instead, his wife and his children had to suffer for it. Peter, who was less than sixteen years old back then, had to bear the responsibility of keeping the family together. He would study and work part-time a lot, and some of them were even…”
Silas couldn’t tell him due to the unsavory nature.
Conrad frowned and said nothing.
Silas then said, “Right, sir. Peter’s record back in university is a little weird.”
“How weird?”
“Other than attending the classes for his core subjects, he was almost non-existent on campus. And I couldn’t find out what kind of part-time job he worked,” Silas said, still confused.
Peter was not even sixteen then and already had to bear his familial duties. Not only did he have to pay for his parents’ living costs, he also had to finance Sally and his own tuition and living expenses.
During the period of time when he was in high school, he would work part time in bars at night. During school breaks, he would mostly spend his time at work. Out of twenty-four hours, he spent eighteen of those at his workplace.
Silas then said, “Don’t you think that it’s strange? Why did he stop working when he was in university? Where did he get his money from?”
Conrad said, “He did not do his usual work during his university years.”
Silas quickly asked, “What kind of work then? Why can’t we find out anything about it?” Conrad remembered how he was investigating Peter through the Hellish Training Camp, but he was stopped by the camp.
He was already suspecting that one of the three leaders of the camp knew about Peter.
However, he was one of the leaders, so he himself could be ruled out. As for the other two, he had no idea yet.
The leaders of the camp were also the top three members of the camp. They each had their own organization and they did not interfere with each other’s business. They did not meet each other as well.
“Silas… Do you think Peter’s from the Hellish Training Camp as well?” Conrad asked Silas, sharing his suspicion.
Silas was stunned. “What? On what grounds, though? He looks quite weak.”
“It doesn’t necessarily have to be martial arts. It could be something else too,” Conrad said slowly.
“What, then?” Silas asked in confusion. He really couldn’t think of anything.
“Research,” Conrad said.
Silas suddenly realized something and said, “When the madam was accused of pushing Britney down the river, she said she smelled something strange. Could it be some kind of drug?”
“That’s definitely it,” Conrad said before pausing for a bit. “When you reached the scene where Sally had something happen to her, did you smell something different?”
“I did!” Silas nodded with his eyes open wide. “I smelled a strange scent too! But Peter was Doctor Sally’s older brother and he loved her, so he wouldn’t have hurt her… I knew it! Britney Thomas!”
Conrad patted Silas’s shoulder. “Send our men to keep an eye on them.”
“Sure!”

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....
