How to Destroy a Cheater Without Saying Goodbye novel Chapter 93

Her hand slid toward Eddy's chest, but Eddy caught Jeannette's wrist, his gaze cold and unyielding as it fixed on her face. "You're saying my wife pushed you down the stairs?"

"Wasn't it you who pushed my wife? Are you jealous she's pregnant? Did you send me away just to pick a fight with her?"

Jeannette's face flashed with shock at his accusations.

But he had seen her fall with his own eyes.

"Eddy, how could I ever do something like that to Blanche? And I had no idea she was pregnant. I only heard by chance that she'd been hospitalized, so I went to check in on her, just to say hello—"

While Jeannette kept digging herself deeper, Rhoda only cared about saving her own skin. She hurried toward the door.

"Stop right there."

Eddy's voice was icy as he shoved Jeannette off of him and turned to Rhoda. "Inciting my son to hurt my wife—do you have any idea how bold that is?"

He called out, "Security."

Rhoda's eyes went wide with terror, unable to believe Eddy had found out.

Two bodyguards entered from the hallway and shut the hospital room door behind them.

Rhoda backed away, panic clawing at her throat. "I didn't do anything!"

Jeannette, who had collapsed onto the bed, suddenly flung herself at Eddy, wrapping her arms around him. "E-Eddy, my mother doesn't even know Healy. She's never met him! How could she possibly convince him to hurt Blanche?"

"That's right, I've never even seen your son." Rhoda avoided Eddy's eyes, her voice wavering as she echoed Jeannette's defense.

In that instant, Jeannette realized—Blanche must have exposed their secret, turned Eddy against her mother on Sheila's behalf.

"Eddy, you can't just listen to one side! This is all Blanche slandering my mother." Jeannette clung to the front of Eddy's shirt, desperate. "Because… because… I'm her half-sister!"

"I'm sorry, Eddy. I never meant to hide it from you. The truth is, I'm Blanche's sister."

"She hates my mother for interfering with her parents' marriage, hates me for being the illegitimate child. That's why she pushed me down the stairs, why I lost my baby, and now she's accusing my mother. But it was Sheila who stole my father away from my mother in the first place. They were together before Sheila manipulated him."

Eddy's knuckles turned white as he clenched his fists. "Don't stop until my wife wakes up," he ordered the bodyguards.
