I protected my baby so carefully, why did he die? Everything was a lie, wasn't it? My baby, he didn't die... right?
"Don't cry, it's not good for your health." William held me in his arms again, and he gently patted my back with his warm palm.
I couldn't help but lie in his arms and burst into tears.
"My baby... He's gone... I lost my baby."
What should I do?
"No..."
I bit William's clothes and burst into tears.
"I'm sorry... Ashley..."
In a daze, I heard William apologize to me.
I wanted to tell William that my baby's death was none of his business. He had been with me all the time. I was very sad, but I have never blamed him.
"Ashley, you're awake." When I woke up again in a daze, it was already 7:30 p.m.
I turned my eyes and looked at Edward who was sitting beside my bed.
The moment I saw him, I felt angry to the extreme.
It was all his fault! He killed my child! I stared at Edward in front of me and tried my best to hold up my body. I used all my strength and slapped him on the face.
"Get out! I don't want to see you!"
"The baby died, I’m very sorry. In the future, we will have our own baby." Edward didn't get angry at all. He let me beat him.
Hearing his words, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Would we have our own baby? Edward, did you know? Our child died, he was killed by your beloved woman...
Did you know?
"I will call the police. I will let Betty feeds the evil consequence herself. As for the fact that she framed me, I won't leave the matter at that."
I sneered at Edward with a cold face.
Edward's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed my wrist and pressed me on the bed. His hot breathing rushed to my face.
"Ashley, you promised me that you wouldn't make that matter public."
"I regret it now. I won't let off Betty. She killed my child, and I will make her pay with her life."
"Ashley! let her off!" Edward stared at me and spoke in a deep voice.
I sneered, pushed his body away with force and mocked, "What right do you have to order me?"
"Betty pushed me to the road and I was almost hit to death by the car, I was lucky, but my baby is dead, I won't let her off. You just wait to be punished by the law."
"What should I do to change your mind?" Edward stood up in silence. For a moment, I couldn't see the expression on his handsome and evil face.
I bit my lips hard and stared at him with hatred.
Let off Betty? Why should I let let her off? Edward really made me sick.
Betty killed my child, and he wanted me to let her off?
"Unless you die."
I raised my chin and looked coldly at his face.
"Do you love the baby that much?" Edward said to me in a deep voice.
His voice sounded a little lonely. I didn't want to know why he made such a lonely voice. I only had one thought, which was to kill Betty and revenge for my baby.
"Get out, I don't want to see you." I turned my head and clenched the quilt in my hand so tightly that it was even deformed.
There was a hint of sadness in Edward's eyes, but I didn't see it.
The atmosphere gradually became abnormally cold, and I felt that the air seemed to become abnormally thin.
Just as I thought that Edward had already left, a cold thing was placed into my hand.
I heard Edward's deep and calm voice. "Stab the knife into my heart. If it can make you cool down, please let off Betty this time."
I looked at Edward in shock, then I burst out laughing. I laughed so hard that tears came out of my eyes.
Let off Betty... Edward... Was this your answer? It turned out that you loved Betty so much.
After laughing, I touched my eyes and looked into Edward's deep eyes. I smiled very obsequiously and said, "But I don't want to let her off. Your life is not worth a cent in my eyes."
Edward's body was stiff and he looked at me deeply for a long time. Then he just left.
Looking at the his back, all my strength seemed to be drained in an instant.
Lying on the bed, I slightly moved my lips and stared at my flat belly. I was filled with hatred.
"If you dare hurt me, Edward will not let you off." Betty threatened me.
When I heard it, I just chuckled with a cold look on my face.
"Really? He won't let me off? Betty, listen to me. You used to be my nightmare, but now, I'll be your nightmare. I'll make you tremble every night. Whatever you care, I'll take it from you and let you experience fate worse than death."
This was what Betty owed my child. I must let her repay it.
"Let's wait and see. I'll make you unable to laugh." Betty sneered, she pushed away my body forcefully and left angrily.
I sneered at Betty's back with sarcasm. Then I lowered my head and looked at the blood on the floor.
I could clearly feel the heartbreaking pain when my baby died.
Heartbreaking.
I covered my face and slowly squatted down. Tears filled my whole face, but my heart became harder and harder.
"I'm sorry, William. I'm afraid I'll have to let you down." I recuperated in the hospital for a month. Edward and Betty didn't come to bother me again.
I took Betty to court, but the people of the Fang family, even Edward, protected her from bearing legal responsibility. She just paid an indemnity.
Although I was not reconciled to this result, I knew that this was reality.
They were all powerful and rich people, and I had nothing.
Betty was an international star with a lot of fans. On the Internet, her fans kept attacking me with harsh words, saying that I deliberately framed her because I was jealous of her.
On the day I was discharged from the hospital, William and I sat in the dining room. I put down the chopsticks in my hand and told William my decision.
Originally, I wanted to start a new life with William and become his wife. I didn't want to pay attention to Edward or Betty.
However, even if I didn't want to have any connection with them, it didn't mean that they would let me live a happy life.
Since Betty cared so much about Edward, then... I wanted to take Edward away and make her miserable.
"Why are you saying that?" William frowned slightly. He put down the chopsticks in his hand and spoke in a gentle voice.
I licked my lips and closed my eyes, "I just...can't forget about my baby's death."
I could never forgive Betty for killing my baby.
There was no turning back.
I used to fantasize about the birth of my baby, but all this was ruined by Betty. She must be responsible for it and pay with her life.
