Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 70
“The Lawson household is in a mess right now. We can’t take care of you now, so don’t start any more trouble!”
“Take good care of your mom!”
They then quickly left to take care of their mother’s matter while leaving Fia by the wall.
Conrad, who was not that far away, saw how helpless she was. In the end, he approached her.
“I’ll accompany you to tell your mom.”
“Leave!” Fia screamed as she flung away Conrad’s hands.
She glowered at him with blood red eyes, a handprint from Beth still on her face.
Conrad could feel anger rising inside of him. When would she learn to protect herself?
It seemed like anyone could simply hit her!
“Conrad Maxwell!” She wailed his name, trembling with dismay.
“You’re the murderer!”
Conrad frowned and tried to explain, “I didn’t do anything. Something was wrong with the will.”
“You killed her!” Fia accused him. “You know how unwell she was! Why must you continue with the lawsuit?!”
“Fia, your grandma is the one who wants to continue with the lawsuit! Yesterday, I called…”
Fia couldn’t stop her tears when she remembered the conversation she had with her grandma that morning. “I’m telling you right now!
“I won’t agree with the divorce! I won’t let you and Esme have your happy ending!”
Conrad lowered his eyebrows. He realized that, despite her words, he wasn’t that angry with her.
When he realized that, he was quite puzzled.
He didn’t know what was happening to him.
“I want you to suffer! As long as I don’t agree to the divorce, you can forget about being with her openly!! will always be your wife! She will be a homewrecker at best!”
She roared with tears still flowing out of her eyes, and even her veins at her forehead and neck were popping out.
Conrad suddenly felt pain when he saw her screaming her heart out.
“Calm down.”
He took a step forward and wanted to caress her.
She immediately took a step back and said, “Stay away!”
“I’m sorry.” Conrad had been thinking about the whole thing. In his eyes, Thea had always been the strong one. But he didn’t expect that when the judge announced that the will was fake, she would become so emotional to the point that… Before she could even say a word…
Fia walked to her mom’s ward with tears in her eyes. She was thinking about how she would tell her mom what had happened.
Her mom was already doing so badly. If something happened to her, what would she do?
When she arrived at the door of the ward, she brushed her tears away and opened the door with a smile.
“Mom, I’m back.”
“Where’s your grandma, Fia? How did the lawsuit go?”
When faced with her mother’s hopeful eyes, she cleared her throat, forced a smile, and said, “We won.” “Really? Where’s your grandma then?”
“She requested to be discharged from the hospital and went back home already. She said there are plenty of things waiting for her.”
Echo frowned and said, “Fia? Are you lying to me?”
Fia couldn’t stop her eyes from becoming red as she lied to her, but a man’s voice came from behind. “Mom, I lost the case.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
It was Conrad.
He walked in with a bitter smile and a defeated expression on his face.
Echo looked at him and said, “My mom won the lawsuit?”
“Yes.”
“That project has nothing to do with you and Esme anymore, does it?”
Esme’s disappointed face appeared in his mind but he nodded at Echo. “As she wished, that project belongs to Fia from now on.”
Echo let out a relaxing smile and said, “That’s great, Fia!”
Fia held her mother’s hand and said, “Mom, Grandma said that she would be quite busy. She asked me to take care of you. Once you’re feeling better, I can then take you back home.”
