Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 829

Chapter 829 

Conrad held Fia’s trembling hand and said, “Fia, Mr. White means you no harm.” 

Fia’s eyes slowly turned red, and she felt like exposing everything after her secret had been revealed. 

“My mom had me out of wedlock. I have no father!” 

Marcus frowned as he was held back for a moment. 

He had encountered a lot of patients, but none of them would reveal things to him like Fia did despite being so resistant to it in the first place. 

“I have no father. So what if there are some flaws in my designs?’ Fia asked. “Is it against the law?” 

Marcus realized that Fia’s situation was worse than she herself had thought. 

The environment she grew up in and her own background had caused her a lot of harm. However, she suppressed it by always advancing forward. 

While she looked strong that way, she had never released all the pent-up pressure inside of her. 

If she were to encounter something that would affect her after she grew up, she could easily break apart one day. 

“Can I talk to you alone?” Marcus asked. 

Conrad nodded, letting Fia wait for him while he followed Marcus up the stairs. 

Fia’s tense muscles finally relaxed. She poured herself a cup of lukewarm tea and finished it all in one go. 

Inside his study, Marcus took out a file and gave it to Conrad. 

“Here are the profiles of some of the patients I’ve treated. You can give it a read.” 

“Thanks.” Conrad took it and wanted to study it. 

Marcus then said, “Don’t worry about it. You can read it once you’re home. The reason I asked you up here is because I want to know about your wife’s history.” 

Conrad didn’t hide what Fia experienced when she was little, from her environment to her family, as well as her best friend, Eileen. 

“What about her romantic relationships?” Marcus asked him when Conrad stopped after reaching the part about her going to university. 

Conrad looked down. “I don’t know anything about that from her university days. But there are some clues that she should have had a failed romance during her university years. It failed, but it affected her very deeply.” 

“A secret love?” Marcus asked. 

“Maybe,” Conrad answered without confidence. 

“And that person isn’t you?” Marcus stared at Conrad, confused. “If not you, who else?” 

Conrad smiled bitterly. “I wished it was me.” 

“You asked her? And she said that person isn’t you?” Marcus asked again. 

“Yes, it isn’t me.” When Conrad thought of Jason, his expression was not as bright as before. 

Marcus was very confused and asked directly, “How can it not be you?” 

From the previous cases that he had dealt with, someone with Fia’s personality would never marry a man she didn’t love. 

He thought that the two of them married out of love. 

Conrad shook his head. “I knew her a long time ago, yes. But we didn’t talk much, and I treated her very badly. I used to call her a coward. And… I dated her cousin in the past.” 

He didn’t want to talk about Esme, but if it would help Fia recover, he was willing to explain everything to him.
