Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad) novel Chapter 872

Chapter 872 

Feeling her heart in pain, Fia stared at Conrad blankly and asked, “Then let me ask you ever lied to me?” 

you. Have 

Conrad was stunned upon hearing this. He had lied to her plenty of times. The worst lie was about Thea Lawson’s project that he robbed from her. 

“Fia, sometimes… a lie could be a white lie.” 

“But a lie is a lie. A lie with good intentions? The so-called ‘good intention’ is just the liar’s selfish presumption!” Fia began to get agitated again, “You think you lied to me with good intentions but to me the fact you’re lying just means that you had ill intentions! The fact you hid Britney’s imposter in that apartment made me very uncomfortable!” 

LL 

Conrad stared at Fia’s anguished eyes as he tried to come up with words to explain to her. It was then he realized something. 

Fia had been calling that woman “Britney’s imposter” or “fake Britney”. She had been avoiding to use her real name-“Esme Manning”. 

Marcus had told him. Esme was a knot that troubled Fia the most. Thus, she unconsciously refused to mention her name. 

“Fia, I promise you. I’ll definitely solve the matters involving her.” Conrad softened his voice and held her shoulders tightly. “Trust me. Okay?” 

“For how long?” Fia snivelled, full of tears, “Tell me how much time you intend to spend to solve this. Things have gotten gradually complicated over time and the lies that you’ve been telling me just keep piling up. It’s not that I don’t want to trust you but things keep happening one after another! I’m already at my limit!” 

Conrad stared at her speechlessly. He did not know just how much time he needed to resolve this. Right now, their enemies were not just Esme and Peter. There was a mastermind behind it all and they were lurking in the dark. 

“A week? A month?” Fia asked again tearfully, “Can you at least tell me a time?” 

Conrad frowned as he said to her cautiously, “I’ll resolve this the soonest I can. But, Fia, you mustn’t get involved. Like today, you shouldn’t have conspired with Sally to let Peter go. Can you promise me not to get involved like that anymore?” 

After pondering for some time, Fia nodded, “Sure. So long as you resolve everything quickly.” 

As long as this mess was resolved quickly and he did not leave her in the dark, she would accept how things turned out, even if the resolution was not something she had expected to 

see. 

“Are you hungry?” Conrad sighed in relief and said, “What’d you like to eat? I’ll ask Mrs. Taylor to make it for you. 

“I’m not hungry. I’m heading back to the bedroom to get some sleep” 

Fia pushed him away and walked out the door, not giving him a chance to say anything more. 

Staring at her, Conrad made up his mind. He would resolve this matter even if he had to take drastic measures. 

The next morning, Fia was woken up by her phone. 

Rubbing her eyes, Fia picked up her phone to check who it was. When she saw that it was from Sally, she immediately answered. 

“What did Conrad do?!” 

Fia was completely woken up after hearing her furious voice. She took a look around. Conrad was not in the room. She had gone to bed quite early last night so she did not know when he went to bed or when he woke up. 

“What’s wrong, Sally?” 

“What’s wrong?!” Sally yelled into her phone, “My brother was left on our home’s doorstep this morning. He’s badly wounded! Not only that, he refuses to go to the hospital for treatment. He’s locked himself in his room all day, smashing everything in sight!” 

Sally broke down in tears and said, “My brother has always been kind and gentle. He’s never like this! Mom and Dad are so scared stiff!”
