Stop It She’s Remarrying by Stellar Strands Chapter 214
Conrad stared at the television screen with mixed feelings. He then answered Fia’s question. “It wasn’t me.”
“Not you? But what she did was what you said this morning.”
Conrad turned around and looked at Fia. “Other than that, another
way is to have Sapphire and Victor announce that their engagement had already been canceled and that he’s dating Ms. Reid.”
Fia’s heart turned cold as she looked at the television. She looked at
Sapphire getting escorted by several bodyguards to a car and leaving. There was a man inside the car. While she only saw his face from.
one side, she knew who he was because he looked somewhat similar
to Conrad. It was Victor.
“Your cousin forced Sapphire to do that?”
“There’s also a possibility that Sapphire wanted to do it.”
“Why? She knows it’s not her. How’s it possible for her to take it lying down as his fiancée?”
Conrad could see all the different types of emotions in her through her eyes. On one hand, she was worried about Eileen. On the other hand, she was feeling guilty toward Sapphire. However, more than those two was her anger toward Victor for cheating.
In that instant, he felt like he saw the relationship between him, her,
and Esme.
While the details of the triangle affair in this world were different, they all shared the same logic.
“Fia, don’t put yourself into their roles. Look at it as an outsider. Perhaps, Sapphire has an aim to willingly replace Eileen.”
“Even if she does, she won’t feel good about it. And Eileen. None of you know what she went through. Two years ago, she…”
Fia decided to shut up in frustration. She didn’t want to reveal to everyone how Victor forced Eileen to abort her baby.
She lowered her head with both her hands in her hair. She was very sympathetic toward Eileen. She used to love Victor so much. She was so much like her in the way she treated Victor.
There was nothing wrong with a woman loving a man. It was only wrong when she was too foolish and too ignorant. When she couldn’t be selfish and serve only herself.
“I wonder how Eileen’s doing. I can’t call her.”
Conrad swallowed before analyzing the situation calmly. “Don’t worry about Ms. Reid. From how things are going, Sapphire must have discussed this with Victor. He would never allow Sapphire to bring this up ever again. Meanwhile, Ms. Reid’s career is going to step up to
another level.”
Sapphire’s sacrifice allowed Eileen to “clear her name” and free her from being cursed at by the public. This would boost her reputation
further.
Fia knew that. But she didn’t believe that Eileen was a woman that could ignore her feelings. She felt somewhat uneasy. She really wanted to go see her. To accompany her and to have a chat with her.
Conrad walked over and put a hand on Fia’s shoulder, trying to console her. “Don’t worry. Victor’s company will release a statement as well. Ms. Reid’s matter will be solved very soon.”
“Conrad.” Fia raised her head and looked at him. Lately, her eyes had always been bloodshot. “Do you think that Eileen is happy?”
Conrad frowned and said, “I don’t know her that well. But just from how this is resolved, she won.”
“Then how do you think your cousin will thank Sapphire?”
Conrad bit his lips. He already knew the answer but he didn’t want to
tell her. He didn’t want her to worry about others.
Fia’s tears rolled down as she looked at Conrad.
“Is Victor going to marry Sapphire?”
“They’ve been engaged for a few years already.”
“Conrad… You must have known what’s going on between your cousin and Eileen!” Fia raised her voice. She didn’t believe that this
was the right way to resolve the issue.
Eileen didn’t know if Victor had any love for her at all. If he married Sapphire, what about her?
“Fia, you have to understand that there’s no perfect way to solve this.” Conrad bent down and held Fia’s shoulders, as he looked deeply into
her eyes.
