Chapter 189: [Bonus - ]Praised
"How did I do that when I had no idea you’d suddenly be entering the kitchen today? Have you ever gone to the kitchen since you entered this house? So how would I know you were coming that I had to pour oil on the floor, awaiting your arrival?"
She had no comeback. How was she going to prove that Jeslyn truly wanted to kill her baby?
"You–"
"I don’t know why you are fighting so hard, Vera. My husband doesn’t care about you, neither does your son. Instead of trying to win your son’s heart, you are hating on me and making things up. If you kill your unborn child, don’t think that my husband will have to sleep with you again to get another baby... Moreover, a donor has been found, so your child means absolutely nothing to Valen’s life. Staying in this house is thanks to that baby you are carrying and you should be grateful to it."
Hearing the latter part of Jeslyn’s words, it felt like a bucket of cold water was dumped on her. Her eyes slowly shifted to Maverick and met his gaze. A chill ran down her spine and her heartbeat stopped for a while. Those eyes felt like they knew the truth. They gave her the ’predator watching the prey’ feeling.
With what Jeslyn just said, Vera’s lies and theories have been debunked. She can no longer use the ’Jeslyn wants to kill my baby so Valen would die’ thingy anymore.
What other lies does she want to spew?
"You are ruining my appetite, go away!" Valen shushed her away like a fly.
"What are you still waiting for? The child doesn’t want you. Leave before I make you leave?" Jeslyn barked at her.
