Chapter 4

"What? Why are you calling me a psycho as soon as she appeared?" Brianna screeched. "Jason Grant! I am your wife! We are the ones who should be family.

"Open your eyes wide and see her for the scheming woman that she is! She's going to ruin the whole family. You're only going to be destroyed if you believe her!"

My scalp was throbbing with pain. I struggled for a while. Then, I grabbed the chance to time my fall backward, landing heavily on top of Brianna.

"My stomach! Ahh!"

Brianna's screams filled the entire house.

I pretended to struggle to grasp my footing before finally getting off her. I staggered as I grabbed hold of the couch to help myself up.

Brianna was still lying on the ground, facing the ceiling with her hand on her stomach. Her face was deathly pale as cold sweat appeared all over her body.

I raised my hands in surrender. "You started it. Can't blame me for this."

With so many witnesses on site, it could still only be categorized as an accident. No more, no less.
