A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 151

When I walked into the living room, I saw William sitting on the sofa. He was holding a glass of red wine and wearing a light gray home suit. He didn't go to work. It was like he was waiting for me to come.

"I knew you would come.1' William put down the glass and said lazily to me.

"William, have you really... poisoned my child?" I pursed my lip, looked at William coldly, and asked.

I still couldn't believe that the child in my belly had been poisoned by William.

Stewart said that my baby was healthy. I suspected that it was William deliberately said this to relax my vigilance.

"You don't believe me?" William raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at me. Then he said with a cold smile.

"What do you want me to do?" I said, holding my belly and staring straight into William's eyes.

"Didn't you say that Edward loves you very much? Let me see how much you trust each other. I said that you can only choose one between your child and Edward. If you don't want to sacrifice Edward, you can only sacrifice your child. I have given you a choice. You should make a decision." William raised his hand and looked at me sarcastically.

Looking at William's face, I suppressed the anger in my heart and said in a low voice, "I want... my child."

Edward... I'm sorry. Believe me, I wouldn't always be threatened by William.

Wait for me to collect more evidence and save you.

"Very well. Since you've chosen your child, then, Edward is the one who will be sacrificed."

William chuckled and walked to me.

I watched William walking toward me warily and said, "What else do you want to do?"

"Are you so afraid of me? Hmm?" William could not help but chuckle when he saw that I was looking at him with such a look.

I frowned, looked at William, and wanted to see what he was going to do.

After walking to me, William looked at my belly and said faintly, "I want you to testify in court that Edward is a murderer."

"What..."

I couldn't believe what I heard. I looked at William's handsome and even cold face in a daze and couldn't say a word.

"If you can't bear to give up Edward, you can only sacrifice your child." William smiled like a devil and whispered in my ear.

With almost hateful eyes, I glared at him and said coldly, "William, you will be punished by God."

"Is that so? I'm waiting for being punished. Ashley, it's all your fault. You promised to be with me for the rest of your life, but you betrayed me." William reached out two fingers and pinched my chin hard.

His strength was so great that he caused a light mark on my chin.

I let out a muffled groan of pain.

"Do you feel pain? But do you know how painful my heart is? I really fell in love with you, but you only love Edward in your heart. You believe what he said. Even if he once hurt you, you still love him. Women are cheap creatures. Am I right?"

William looked at me with horrible eyes and said coldly.

When I heard his crazy and horrible words, I couldn't help uttering a muffled hum.

I gritted my teeth, glared at William and said, "Don't say the word love! William, you are the most hypocritical person in the world. You don't love anyone at all. You only love yourself."

If William really loved me, he would not do these despicable things.

He just wanted to make use of me. When I heard the word "love" from him, I felt cold all over my body.

"I can only accept what you said. But whether to destroy Edward or not, it is up to you. If you don't destroy him, I will personally kill your child and send its dead body to Edward. I want to see how he will feel when his child dies. I don't know if he will go crazy?"

"Crazy man." When I heard William's malicious and hateful words, I couldn't help but feel cold. It was the first time that I heard someone say such vicious words.

"Haha, I'm really crazy. Ashley, don't challenge my patience anymore. I have no more patience for you. Seven days later, it's time for the second instance. I want Edward to spend the rest of his life in prison."

After the second instance, there would be no way for Edward to reverse the verdict. Even if new evidence was found later to prove that he was innocent, it would be dismissed by the court. Edward might be sentenced to death because of this.

William wanted Edward to die.

Let Edward die with an indelible stain, William's trick was really ruthless.

But what was I going to do?

I clenched my fists hard and pursed my lips to look at William. After a long time, the child in my belly shook slightly as if he felt my struggle.

My hand was unusually stiff on my belly. I slowly closed my eyes and said, "I... promise you."

For our child, please hold on for the time being, okay? Edward...

After talking with William, I left his villa.

I went back to my room, sat in the living room, and watched TV in a daze.

Paul decided to arrange Letitia's funeral three days later.

After watching Paul leave, I got up and went upstairs to the study.

I looked at the computer on the table and turned on it. As expected, I saw the evidence sorted out by Paul.

I made up my mind and deleted all the evidence. Then, I sent the deleted records and other information to William's mobile phone.

Looking at the computer that had been emptied by me, I sat feebly.

Edward... Sorry... for our child, please... hold on for the time being. Baby, mom would definitely protect you.

The next day, I asked Paul to drive me to the prison to see Edward. When I went there, I didn't expect to meet Betty.

After seeing me, Betty gave me a cold look, and then she pushed my body away. She got in the elevator and went to the cell of Edward.

I was pushed away by her so hard that I almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, I was supported by Paul, otherwise, I would have an abortion.

With a cold face, I looked at the elevator and said to Paul, "Let's go to another elevator."

"Yes."

Paul and I took another elevator and soon arrived at the place where Edward was locked up. When I went over, Betty was talking to him.

Standing at the door, I touched my belly and quietly looked at Betty's emotional look.

"Edward, do you really hate me so much? For Ashley, you so unwilling to be with me!"

Betty's sharp voice was extremely abrupt in the dark cell.

I bit my lips and looked at Edward who faced me with his back.

"I've told you that I've lost all of my kindness for you. If you dare hurt Ashley again, don't blame me for being ruthless." Edward's face turned cold as he said to Betty.

"You...Edward, why do you treat me like this? You said that you would only love me in your life. We had been together for so long, but you never had sex with me. If it weren't for you, how could I have sex with another man? I had another man's child, and you didn't mind. You even married me. I thought you loved me. But, what are you doing now? Edward, tell me, why do you treat me like this? Why?" Betty screamed at him as if she grabbed his clothes.

Betty said that after Edward never had sex with her.

In the past, Edward told me that he didn't have sex with Betty. But I thought that he was coaxing me.

Because I thought Edward loved Betty very much. Besides, Betty was pretty, and she was scheming. How could Edward bear not to have an affair with her?

"I've told you that I can give you everything except... this."
