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

Stop It, She's Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 48

When Fia saw those words, she felt somewhat comforted.

After accompanying her mom and grandma for the whole day, Fia grabbed a cab and went home around. five in the evening.

"Mrs. Taylor, is he back?"

"Master Maxwell isn't back yet. He must be busy at work."

"Right."

When Mrs. Taylor saw the expectation on Fia's face dissipated, she quickly said, "If there's anything urgent, you can call him directly. He'll pick it up."

"No need." Fia lowered her eyes and remembered the baby in her womb.

During lunch in the hospital, she lost her appetite thanks to the scent of sanitizers. She was starving now.

"Mrs. Taylor, I'm hungry."

"I've already finished cooking. It's your favorite."

Fia happily followed Mrs. Taylor into the dining room.

Mrs. Taylor removed the cover and said, "I've prepared your favorite braised fish. The sauce is....."

"Gah!"

The moment Mrs. Taylor removed the cover, all Fia could smell was an overwhelming fishy smell. She couldn't help but retch.

Mrs. Taylor looked at her suspiciously. "Madam, the fish's smell is mostly gone. Why are you reacting to it so strongly?"

"I... Augh!" Fia covered her mouth as she rushed to the washroom.

Mrs. Taylor looked at the braised fish before picking up a fork to taste it.

It tasted as usual. There was no difference at all. In the past, she would always finish the fish happily.

What was going on today?

"Could she really be pregnant?"

After throwing up, she stood at the entrance to the dining room. She didn't dare to enter.

"You don't want to have any fish today, Madam?”

Fia nodded weakly. "Yes."

"Then I'll take this dish away. I'll keep it for Master Maxwell?"

"Yes!" She nodded even harder.

Mrs. Taylor realized the madam wasn't feeling unwell. She was pregnant.

However, perhaps it was because it was her first time being pregnant. She had mistaken morning sickness for common vomiting. She took away the braised fish and poured her a glass of warm milk.

"Madam, have some milk."

2/2

"Thank you, Mrs. Taylor." Fia picked the glass up, but when she smelled the scent from the milk, she quietly put it down.

"Why aren't you drinking it, Madam?"

"I want to eat something, but no milk."

The joy in Mrs. Taylor's eyes couldn't even be hidden. "Madam, it's obvious that you're pregnant! You can't treat this as nothing! You can't just take any medicine because you think it's a stomachache. It will not be good for the child."

Fia didn't dare to look Mrs. Taylor in the eyes, so she grabbed the glass of milk and finished it in one gulp.

"See, I'm not pregnant."

Mrs. Taylor gawked in silence. She didn't know what to say.

Fia then sat down and had her meal. She was much faster than usual. She only wanted to go to her room after she was finished.

She realized that Mrs. Taylor was getting suspicious of her.

Before she got up the stairs, Mrs. Taylor couldn't help but ask, "Madam, are you worried that once Mrs. Maxwell and Master Maxwell find out about your pregnancy, they'd want to abort it?"

Fia grabbed the railing tightly and didn't dare to look at Mrs. Taylor.

She didn't want to show her fragility to others. All she could do then was cry or complain. She didn't want it to end that way.

Mrs. Taylor was still an employee under the Maxwells. No matter how well she treated her, she had to have her guard up.

"Don't worry, Madam. She had been asking you to take the medicine and to go for treatment, so she would naturally want you to have a child. And the master... He was never a heartless man. He would never

kill his own child."
