Stop It, She’s Remarrying!

Chapter 251

“You…”

“Excuse me!” Suddenly, several police officers walked in.

There was anger sparking in Conrad’s eyes. “Who told you to come in?!”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Maxwell. They said that Mrs. Maxwell is the mastermind. We need to take her back to the station to help with the investigation.”

“Out!” Conrad let go of Fia and turned around, staring at them. “Nothing like that had happened!”

“This is not something negligible, Mr. Maxwell. Ms. Manning suffered grievous injuries. After what she did to the victim…”

“Fia’s my wife. I know her. She would never do that!”

Fia looked at Conrad’s tall figure in confusion.

How interesting. When he barged in just now, he questioned her.

But when the police officers came in, he protected her.

Maybe because she was his wife?

Maybe because he was worried that she would disgrace the Maxwells?

Yes. That must be it.

She couldn’t think of any reasons other than that.

“Mr. Maxwell, please don’t interfere with our job. What Ms. Manning had experienced tonight was very cruel. There is nothing you can do to suppress this. All of them said that Mrs. Maxwell was the one that paid them to do it. Mrs. Maxwell is the prime suspect in this case.”

Fia quietly listened and smiled.

Conrad then turned around and asked, “What are you smiling about?”

“Nothing.” She shrugged. The reason that she smiled was because she had underestimated Lola. “No need to stop them. I’ll go with them.”

“No! The baby in your womb can’t take it.” Conrad turned around and explained to the officers how Fia was having difficulty with her pregnancy.

The officers exchanged a glance and in the end they decided to have Fia help with the investigation in the ward.

“Mr. Maxwell, other than the doctors and nurses, we cannot allow anyone to see Mrs. Maxwell for now.”

Conrad wanted to argue with them but a nurse ran in.

“Mr. Maxwell, Ms. Manning is bleeding but she refuses to cooperate with the blood transfusion. She wants to see you!”

Fia smiled and said calmly, “That’s fine. Go to Esme Manning. I don’t need you here.”

Conrad looked at Fia and realized how nonsensical everything was.

Esme relied on him a lot. He had just managed to find the time to see her away from Esme, but she didn’t even give him a smile.

Even then, he couldn’t give up on her.

“Don’t worry. I’ll explain everything after I’m done with the surgery. You’re innocent. You won’t do something like that.”

Fia looked at Conrad quietly.

Could she believe him?

No. She might fall into the abyss again if she trusted him.

“Fia, wait for me! Don’t let your imagination go wild! Everything’s going to be alright!” Conrad gave Fia al reassuring look before running out of the ward.

Fia let out a smile and the vision of how Esme sobbed in Conrad’s arms surfaced in her mind. She could feel the coldness extend into her limbs as she began to shake.

“Mrs. Maxwell, please answer some of our questions. Where were you last night at 8.30? Who did you. contact? And…”

“Mrs. Maxwell!” Another officer managed to catch Fia as she fell from the bed.

“Call the doctor!”

The officer helped Fia, who fainted, onto the bed while another officer went to get the doctor. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Jason had just wanted to end his round with Fia’s ward and return to his office when he saw a police officer run out from her ward.

“What’s going on?”

When the officer saw Jason wearing a white coat, he sighed in relief and grabbed his hand before dragging him into the ward. “Please come with me! Mrs. Maxwell suddenly fainted!”
