Stop It She's Remarrying by Stellar Strands

Chapter 6

“And the clothes in the closet… Burn them all! My cousin is quite prideful. She’ll get angry if she sees them.

“Right, and all the jewelry that you gave me is all in the box inside the closet.”

She took out the box and then opened it for Conrad to see.

“Everything you gave me during the past three years is here. Esme wouldn’t wear anything that someone else had worn before, so ask Silas to sell it. Or give it to the household’s servants. Either way, do with them as you will.”

She said a lot, arranging everything well.

Conrad was feeling stuffy. He took out a cigarette, but when he remembered that she didn’t like him smoking, he put it back into the box and put the box away.

“Are you saying you want to erase every single trace of you here?”

Fia let out a cynical smile. “Why not?”

He never wanted her in the first place. He wanted her gone.

Conrad then said, “Your mother isn’t doing well. If she knew we’re divorcing, she would…”

“That’s why I hope you can keep this a secret for now. Don’t tell her anything,” Fia said tearfully. “And my cousin and her family… I hope you can control them and stop them from saying anything to my mom.”

Conrod tightened his grip on the box in his pocket.

“I’m busy every day and it’s impossible for me to keep tabs on them every second of the day. Now that your mother is sick, they’ll eventually ask to visit her.”

Fia’s brows locked together and asked worryingly, “What… can I do?

“With the condition she’s in, the one person that she can’t let go of is me. If she finds out that I’m divorced, she won’t be able to take it!” She screamed out as she could feel her mind crumbling.

Conrad stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.

“We’re not divorcing.”

Fia was stunned in his arms and then slowly raised her head to look at him, hope lighting up in her eyes.

“What did you say?”
