Stop It, She’s Remarrying (Fia and Conrad)
Chapter 1114

Chapter 1114

"I haven't considered that you might have a family... or that you already have children. If I knew that, I wouldn't have come to ask something so horrendous from you," Elleen explained. "It's alright." Fia stood up and said, "Allow me to see you off, Ms. Reid."

"Certainly. Again, I'm terribly sorry." Eileen apologized as she walked toward the door.

Suddenly...

"Mommy, who's she?"

Adrian asked as he stepped into the living room barefooted, rubbing his eyes drowsily.

Fia hurried to him and asked, "Adrian, why aren't you wearing your slippers? You could catch. a cold!"

Then, she quickly went to her son's room to bring him his slippers. Eileen and Adrian, on the other hand, were staring at one another in the living room.

"Who are you?" Adrian asked curiously.

Feeling an intense warmth from meeting the boy, Eileen stepped toward him, squatted down and spoke to him gently, "Hello, my name is Eileen Reid. I'm a superstar."

"Eileen Reid?" Adrian blinked and stared at her momentarily before yelping in surprise, "Oh, I know you! Mommy has a magazine that's got you on it! You're an actor, aren't you?" Eileen was surprised to hear that. "Why, yes. Yes, I am!"

"My twin sister's name is Irene! Her name sounds just like yours!" Adrian said joyfully.

Eileen caught a whiff of something fishy from the boy's words. "Wait, really?"

"Yeah!" Adrian turned and asked his mother, who stepped out of his room with his slippers, Mommy, isn't that right? Irene's name sounds just like Auntie Eileen's name!"

Fia lowered her head to avoid looking at Eileen while helping Adrian put on his slippers. Then, she slapped his bottom and hissed, "Go to bed!"

"Mommy... "Adrian looked at his mother pitifully. 'Geez, what is up with Mommy? She's so fierce tonight!'

"I said, go to bed!" Fia said to Adrian sternly. Not daring to defy his mother, Adrian took. another look at Eileen before stepping into his bedroom.

Closing the bedroom's door, Fia turned and faced Eileen.

"I'll see you out, Ms. Reid."

Eileen tilted her head as she took another good, long look at Fia before saying, "My friend was carrying her twins before she died. If she's still alive, I wonder... could she also have a boy and a girl like yours..."

"Your friend has passed on, Ms. Reid. It's no use making speculations," Fia said coldly.

"Could you tell me your name, please?" Eileen asked as she kept on staring at Fia.

Fia could see the tears welling in her old friend's eyes. It was quite apparent that Eileen's pain. of losing her dearest friend was beginning to resurface after all these years.

Fia looked away and dodged the question. "You're probing too much, Ms. Reid."

"Can we... Can we be friends?" Eileen yelped out her question, sobbing. She had a hunch, a strong one, that this woman's resemblance to Fia was not a coincidence.

"I don't need friends." Fia almost lost control of her feelings. She needed to send Eileen away before her longing to reunite with her past broke her cover.

So, she grasped Eileen's shoulder and pushed her out the door.

Eileen stumbled out the door, feeling extremely puzzled at what she was going through. Fia would never do this to her.

Could it be that... this woman simply looked like Fia? That... her giving birth to twins was also a coincidence?

Even her voice? Her voice being so similar to Fia's was also a coincidence? Yet, why? Why did she become so saddened and emotional when she saw her? At the same time, Fia glued herself to the door and put an ear on it, listening keenly to see if Eileen had left. She did not want to do this but she had to!

There were no footsteps.. This meant that Eileen was still standing outside. If she opened the door, she could confess and reunite with her best friend. Still, she could not do it. It had been five years! Everyone had already moved on with their lives.
