Chapter 2 Miscarriage

On the other hand, Yunice looked devastated as she said, "Shirley, you can't curse your own mother like that even if you hate me. How heartbroken she must be!"

"She was indeed heartbroken. After all, she had to deal with you two scumbags!" In a fit of rage, I lunged at Anthony and said, "If you don't divorce me, I'll march into your company while carrying my mother's portrait tomorrow. Let's see who'll be more humiliated then!"

Anthony was enraged and shoved me hard. I slammed against the corner of a table and doubled over in pain. The next moment, a sharp cramp seized my stomach, and I collapsed to the floor, feeling something warm and wet spreading beneath me.

Anthony was shocked. "You…"

"It's your child, Anthony. How can you be so heartless?" Staring at the blood pooling around me, I felt as if something had been drained from my body.

Anthony's expression softened slightly. Just as he knelt and was about to check on me, Yunice covered her mouth and glared at me with hatred. Then, she said, "What's happening to her? Is she having a miscarriage? Anthony, you've been with me these past few months. Whose baby is this?"

Hearing her words, Anthony stopped in his tracks and barked at me. "Shirley, how dare you cheat on me?"

I bit my lip and glared at him. "Don't you believe that the baby is yours? On second thought, given that you're with Yunice, why can't I find someone else? Do you think you're the only one who gets to break the rules? By the way, Yunice was the one who answered when my mom called you." As I spoke, I looked at him with despair. "If I die, I'll drag both of you down with me. You can throw all the dirt you want at me! If I live a miserable life, you guys won't get away with it either!"

Yunice seemed startled by my threat as she staggered back.

On the other hand, Anthony growled, "You can just rot here on your own!" With that, he stormed out with Yunice.

I was left writhing in pain. Slowly, I took out my phone and dialed a number. "Help me…"

After that, everything went black before me.

When I woke up, I was in a hospital bed, and Alicia was sitting beside me.

Seeing that I had woken up, she rushed over and asked, "How do you feel?"

"My baby…"

"Shirley, you'll have another baby in the future. As for Anthony, he says he's busy."

"He won't come." I smiled bitterly. "He doesn't believe that the baby is his."

"What?!" She shot up from her chair, furious. "That bastard! How could he say that?"

I quickly patted her hand and said, "It's fine. I'm going to get a divorce with him anyway. That secretary of his will give him plenty of kids, so it doesn't matter anymore."

"I told you from the beginning that he isn't a good person!" Alicia fumed. "He's someone who will forget his roots the moment he strikes it rich. Who does he think he is? Don't worry. I'll make sure he pays for this!"

I truly regretted what I had done in the past. Right now, all I wanted was to destroy them!

Alicia squeezed my hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you with it. You don't have to worry about the company either. I'll find you a manager who'll handle everything."

I never expected the manager to be Alicia's cousin. When I saw Brian Carra, my eyes welled up with tears.

Back when Alicia tried to match us together, I knew he liked me, but I chose Anthony over him. Now, here I was, face to face with him again.

"What happened to you?" Brian asked as soon as we met. "The doctor said there were signs of injury on your stomach. Did he hit you?"

I recalled the events and nodded. "Yes. He abused me. Please help me report it to the police."
