Stop It, She’s Remarrying!

Chapter 948

She should have been a pianist, playing an expensive plano in front of a crowd.

Where she would enjoy the praises, the applause, and the flowers from the crowd below the stage.

But she had injured her hand, and she was forced to return to the country.

She thought that even with her hand injured and even if she could never turn things back to how they were, she could at least find her first love, and become the madam of the Maxwell family and be the envy of the entire Gryphon city!

But it was all Fia’s fault!

Even if she could never return to how it was with Conrad, she would never allow that woman to live a happy life that was built on her suffering!

“What is it?” Barbara asked gently, looking straight at Esme as her eyes slowly became full of hate.

Esme raised her eyes and said, “I don’t know why Mr. Maxwell wanted to lock me in the apartment he owned and Fia found out about it. But she kept on saying that I’m trying to steal her husband and kept on ruining my reputation.”

Barbara sighed. “You can’t blame everything on her… Mr. Maxwell is the one who locked you up after all.” Esme was speechless.

Barbara then said, “Speaking of which, he kept on trying to lock you up. Is it because he likes you?”

Hearing how honest Barbara was, she couldn’t help entertaining the thought.

“Why do you think that?”

“I’ve worked in the company for so many years, but I’ve never seen him get close to any woman. The only possibility that I can think of is that he likes you,” Barbara said with a frown. “But he already has a wife. This isn’t right.”

“There’s no such thing as right or wrong, only losing or winning. Everything is written by the victor,” Esme said as she lowered her eyes.

Barbara looked at her with disgust. She didn’t even have to see her face to know how disgusting she was.

A woman that could never be fulfilled… A woman that would only prey on others!

“What do you think about Peter?” Esme asked her with some hope as she looked up.

Barbara snorted in her mind but she said with a helpless expression on her face, “I’ve never spent any meaningful time with him, so I don’t know.”

“I suddenly feel tired after chasing him for so many years,” Esme said. “He always acts so coldly as if he doesn’t like me that much. He’s probably with me right now out of pity as I’ve been running after him for -so long.”

Barbara was on the verge of screaming at the shameless woman.

“If I get married to him, would he divorce me when he encounters someone he likes? If he would discard me without care, then what’s the point of me persevering?” Esme said, upset.

“Our parents have already agreed to the marriage. It’s not good to back out at this juncture, is It?” Barbara wished that these two would get married as soon as possible!

“But… I’m really worried,” Esme said. “He’s so sensitive. I wanted to tell him to wait for the marriage, but

I’m worried that I would hurt him.” From NôvelDrama.Org.

Britney furrowed her brows and said nothing.

Esme thought that Barbara’s scowl came from her concern for her. “Barbara.”

Esme held Barbara’s hand and said pitifully, “You’re the pillar of this family. The Halls will definitely listen to your request. Can you please tell him this?”

Barbara said helplessly, “You’re the one who’s in a relationship with him, not me. If I’m the one that’s making the shot, the entire Hall family will pin the blame on us.”

“But…” Esme acted as if she had been abandoned by the world. “I’ve been pursuing him for so many years … I don’t want to hurt him.”

Barbara was rolling her eyes in her mind, but she still kept up the appearance of a heartbroken sister.

“Britney, since you’re in love with him and made advances on him for so many years, why are you delaying the wedding? Isn’t this what you’ve been dreaming of all this while?”

Esme cursed in her heart, but she simply acted as if she had suffered a lot.

“You don’t want to help me? Why do I feel like our relationship isn’t as good as it was in the past?”

Barbara stopped herself from physically rolling her eyes. “We’re all grown-ups now. We have to be responsible for our own choices.”

Esme looked at Barbara. She suddenly felt suspicious. Had she found out about something? If not, why would she be so cold toward her all of a sudden?

Barbara could sense Esme being suspicious of her, so she hugged her while giving her a pat on the back.
