1 suddenly remembered something and casually took out the pregnancy test results 1 had retrieved from the trash,
d Them In front of Dashiell and Mabel.
“You two, reconciliation is out of the question. But since we’re divorced, there’s something I no longer want to hide. I was actually two months pregnant before, but… Yesterday, when I found out Dashiell brought his pregnant inistress home, I went straight to the hospital and had an abortion. After all… I couldn’t let my child accept that their father was a scumbag who kicked us out for his mistress. So, you almost had a grandson, but he’s now dead in a hospital trash can.”
As I spoke, I threw the test results directly in Dashlell’s face. His face instantly turned green.
Reside him, Mabel let out a bowl, clutching the test results and bursting into loud sobs.
“Oh, my poor grandson! How cruel fate is to you! Only two months old and aborted! You were the last hope of our old Frost family!”
“Scarlett, you bitch!You have such a cruel heart! You were carrying our Frost family’s flesh and blood and didn’t say a word, just went to the hospital and got rid of it on your own? You owe me my grandchild?”
Mabel walled as she lunged at me, trying to claw and hit me. I dodged her with disgust.
“It’s my body, so of course I have the right to make decisions about it. Did your son tell me when he brought his pregnant mistress home?”
The neighborhood crowd began to shout angrily in righteous indignation.
“Hey! You old hag! Have you no shame, crying here? Hurry up and take your useless son who can’t even lay eggs back to the countryside. Don’t bring down the property values in our gated community with your wailing. What
“That’s right, now we all see clearly. Isn’t it just that the Frost guy brought this on himself and got played by his mistress? You deserve it. Frost was the one who cheated during the marriage. You should be the ones to leave with nothing but the clothes on your backs
As they spoke, some neighbors who had just returned from grocery shopping started throwing eggs and vegetable leaves from their bags at the Frost mother and son. In an instant, the two were covered in a messy mix of peach and pear blossoms, looking utterly disheveled At this moment, I finally noticed Vivienne lying unconscious nearby, still bleeding.
I furrowed my brow and plcked up my phone to dial 911.
“Hello, there’s a pregnant woman bleeding here, possibly experiencing a miscarriage. Please come immediately
I
After that, I glanced at Dashiell and Mabel, then dialed 911 again.
“Hello, 9117 I’d like to report an assault. Someone here has beaten a pregnant woman, causing a miscarriage. Also, my ex–husband Dashiell has illegally transferred company assets. Please come right away”
Hendrik let out a cold laugh and made a phone call of his own.
“Hey! Attorney Langdon, I’ve got a divorce property dispute case for you. Whatever your fee, I don’t care. I just want the party at fault to walk away with nothing!”
Alter Hendrik and I finished our calls, all the onlookers cheered loudly. Dashiell and his mother finally realized the gravity of the situation.
Dashiell was the first to drop to his knees with a thud, clinging tightly to my legs.
“Scarlett! Please!Please, I beg you, don’t leave me and don’t sue me, okay? I know I was wrong. Let’s remarry. I’ll transfer the mansion and luxury cars to your name. Yes, and the company too. I’ll give you all the company shares
What do you say?”
Hendrik walked over, his face cold as he kicked Hendrik away from me wi pant cuffs.
