”What’s wrong with him?” Eileen asked.
“Someone was causing a ruckus in the northern suburbs. He was at the scene and got hurt.”
“…”
Eileen bit her lips before asking, “Is he badly injured?”
Hearing this, Fia hesitated, not knowing if she should tell her the truth. It was quite clear now that Eileen was Conrad’s half-sister. This would also mean that she and Victor were first cousins.
In short, they should not get romantically involved ever again.
Sophia drove slower and said cautiously, “To be frank, he had it coming. Tiger told me that the northern suburbs rightfully belonged to Sir. He was generous and yielded the land to him. Heh, his cousin should have stopped thinking about robbing others’ lands.”
Sophia had heard a lot of stories about Victor in the past few days from Tiger. The more she learned about him, the more she felt this man deserved what he got! He was an ambitious man but, deep down, he was just a talentless worm. If it were not for Conrad and the other members of the Maxwells, Victor would not have gotten anywhere in the business world!
If the northern suburbs had been handled by Conrad, things would have turned out better!
Now that the land had fallen into the hands of this talentless moron, it would take ages before any proper development could be done there.
“Indeed, he had done too many appalling deeds. Karma had finally caught up to him,” Eileen said as she secretly worried for Victor.
Fia saw the worry brooding in Eileen’s eyes. She understood that feeling all too well. The feeling of worrying for the man she held dear.
“Eileen, he cares about you a great deal. Victor was the one who brought up tracking Sapphire’s phone when we could not locate you via GPS. He even rushed to the scene to save you despite still being injured. The man drove his car so fast that he almost crashed into other cars along the way.”
Hearing Fia’s words, Eileen’s eyes began welling up with tears.
“No, that’s just how he behaves. He’s always so brash and reckless. This doesn’t mean that he cares about me.”
Fia held her hand and said, “Fair enough. Frankly, I’m glad that you think this way.”
Eileen gave a smile and said, “Silly girl, are you afraid that I’ll get mad at you if you didn’t tell me news about him?”

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....
