The night was as dense as undissolved ink.
Jemma Wilkinson bit her teeth while clutching her belly. She ran and hid, her white dress already stained with blood.
And still, blood flowed ceaselessly down her leg!
She could not go on; she was about to give birth!
She had already run far away; those people should not be able to find her for the time being.
Looking around, there was nothing but knee-high wild grass, deserted and empty.
She stroked her restless baby in her womb, "Are you going to be born in a desolate wilderness, my child?"
Suddenly, a surge of pain made her cry out!
Half an hour later.
"Wah..."
A cry broke the silence of the wilderness.
Her hair stuck to her cheeks, soaked with sweat. She had bitten her lips till they bled. Yet Jemma, oblivious of the pain, joyfully reached out to hold her child.
"Oh, the wild spawn is born!"
Suddenly, a pair of hands from behind beat her to it, scooping up the infant from the grass.
"Lindsay! Brad! You..." Jemma gritted her teeth, the pain crippling to utter a complete sentence.
The pair before her eyes, as ungrateful as crocodiles, one her own sister, the other her newlywed husband; yet they conspired together, driving her to desperation!
Lindsay Wilkinson still retained her gentle and calm demeanor, however the gaze she directed at the child in her arms was frighteningly hostile.
"This child is so ugly, and it’s a girl. Fear she won't be able to marry off when she grows up."
"Brad, when you found a lover for my sister, why didn't you find someone good-looking? Letting my beautiful sister suffer, I owes you an apology, Jemma."
Jemma was angry, but the child was in their hands. She could only take a deep breath, stifling her fury and birthing pain.
"My baby! Give me back my baby! I've given you guys the shares of Galactic Group; I can also give you Brad. I'll satisfy you, but give my child back!"
All she wanted was her child back. She was the only blood-relative she had left in this world, she wasn't going to let anyone take her baby away.
Brad Holmes had been silent all this time, hearing her words, a patronizing expression flashed across his face.
"Jemma, have you been in touch with that man all this time?"
"You keep saying you love me, but you want to divorce me for that bastard's sake, even the shares you've been fervently holding on to you're willing to give up. You're so pathetic! Is it because you can't forget the night that man slept with you?"
Jemma was at a loss for words for a moment. She seemed so angry to the extreme, yet she couldn't help but laugh.
Her hazy peach blossom eyes slightly raised, looking at the man she had loved for almost two years.
She never knew that there could be such shameless people in this world.
Tonight, she inadvertently heard their conversation, only then realizing that her husband and her younger sister had been colluding for three years.
Brad approached her just for the shares of Galactic Group, step by step deceiving her trust until they got married. Later, due to her pregnancy, her mental state was not good, only Lindsay and Brad stayed by her side.
She treated them as her entire world, little did she know, they were scheming at every turn, each blow was lethal!
Brad was seen guilt-ridden and distracted by her.
Jemma was originally beautiful, now she was wrapped in a long dress, soaked in sweat, clung to her figure. Her chest undulated as she was irritated.
Especially staring at him with half-angry and half-laughing eyes, the hair on her cheeks was not disheveled, but rather it added a bit of charm.
Brad quietly clenched his fists, such a beauty, yet he let her go back then, even let her have a child with another man...
Lindsay, who was beside him, noticed his change, her expression slightly altered, and the hand holding the child squeezed tighter. If it weren’t that this bastard still had uses, she would have strangled her to death right now.
"Brad, what are you standing there for? Let's go!"
Brad hesitated for a moment, pointing at Jemma and asked, "What about her?"
Lindsay glanced around, a smile crystallized on her soft face, "Easy, just burn her to death!"
After saying that, she turned to leave with the child in her arms, but not forgetting to instruct before she left, "Brad, you light the fire."
Jemma was immediately surrounded by a huge fire. The flames spread rapidly. She tried desperately to crawl out, but suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her abdomen back again.
Was there another one in her belly?
What should she do... is fate really going to take her life?
A few moments later, Lindsay and Brad got into the SUV and drove away.
At the same moment they left, a hummer came speeding and brushed past them, stopping by the roadside...
