Stop It, She’s Remarrying!

Chapter 328

“Mr. Maxwell, can you please show mercy to my brother and his daughter for the sake of your relationship with Esme?” Hank cried out in sorrow.

Beth quickly said, “Please save Esme. We only have one daughter.”

“Enough!” Hank stared at his wife. “Do you know because of your love for your daughter, not only is my brother going to get fired, but he’s also going to get punished as well?”

“So, your brother is important, but my daughter isn’t?!”

When Conrad saw that the two of them were going to start fighting, he was worried that they would be too noisy for Fia. He said coldly, “They’re simply suffering from the consequences of their own actions. No one can save you. Leave!”

Thump!

Hank knelt down on the ground directly, and that shocked Beth.

“Yes, Esme is suffering her own consequences. But my brother has never hurt anyone as a police officer! He even helped a lot of people in Gryphon! You’ll know it if you investigate! We’re the ones at fault this time! You shouldn’t have let your anger out on him because of Esme! Please, I beg you, show my brother some mercy.”

Conrad frowned. Of course, he knew that Assistant Director Manning had always been a fair man.

He suddenly remembered what Finn told him two days ago when Finn personally saw him off in his car. “Everyone in this world will commit that same mistake, which is doing something illegal for the sake of family. I wonder, Mr. Maxwell, if you have experienced the same thing?”NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Uncle Manning…” Conrad had never addressed Hank as such. He continued in a stern tone. “If you really want to save your brother, tell him to be honest with the prosecutors about what they hadn’t found out yet. It’s best for Assistant Director Manning to personally say it. Perhaps, that could lessen the severity of his crimes.”

Hank was stunned as he could feel his legs go numb.

If he really did that, his daughter wouldn’t have a future anymore!

“No!” Beth screamed as she pounced on Hank. They had been married for so long, so of course she knew what his expression meant. “I’m warning you, Hank! She’s the only daughter I have! If you destroy her, I’ll make sure that you and that lover of yours will die a horrible death!”

Fia was stunned. While Hank was a cold man, he treated Beth and Esme very well. Why would there be a lover?

“I’ve failed Esme. But my brother had given up too much for me since he was little. I can’t let him fall like this,” Hank said in sadness as he pushed Beth and ran out.

“Ahahaha!” Beth collapsed on the ground as she laughed and cried. In the end, she could only stare at Fia numbly.

“It’s you… It’s all your fault, Fia… If you didn’t marry Conrad, Esme wouldn’t have become like this. Our family wouldn’t have ended up like this… It’s your fault… It’s your mother’s fault… And my mother’s fault too! This is because of all of you!”

“Silas, drag her out!”

“Of course!” Silas rolled up his sleeves and then dragged Beth out of the room.

Beth was consumed by her anger as she cursed, “Fia! I curse you! I curse you so you’ll end up like your mother! That you’ll never end up with the person you love! That you’ll end up lied to and abandoned! That you’ll end up sick just like her…”

Fia shuddered, with pain in her eyes.

She never wanted things to end up like this with her aunt and her family either.

No matter what happened, they did love her when she was little.

“Don’t listen to her, Fia,” Conrad said as he covered Fia’s ears. He didn’t want her to hear all the curses that Beth shouted even when she had been dragged into the corridor already.

Fia held Conrad’s hand, her eyes filled with tears.

“They said that everything one’s mother experiences would be what the daughter experiences as well. Will I really end up like what my aunt said…”

“No!” Conrad’s hands that were covering her ears quickly held her face instead.

He stared right into her eyes with a firm expression and said, “You will have all the happiness your mom never had. I guarantee you!”

“Guarantee?” Fia could feel the pain stirring in her heart. Her future was in flux. How could anyone guarantee it?

She would never end up with the person she loved. She had loved him for eleven years, but he never responded to her. All she got from him was pain.

She had been lied to. He kept on saying to her that he would never see Esme again, but he still did.

She would be abandoned. That was going to happen soon, right?

They would get a divorce, and he started it, too. He was the one that wanted to abandon her first.
