Chapter 104 She Wanted to Die, I Fulfilled Her Wish!

I looked at her, my entire body already numb. I stiffly pried her hand off mine, took a step back, and the words I wanted to explain were forcibly suppressed.

"A child? Miss Conner from the Conner family was pregnant?"

The surrounding chatter began, and finally, someone noticed the slight bulge under Ashley's wet clothes.

"Exactly, Ms. Conner's belly, it looked like she was three or four months pregnant, wasn't she?"

"Whose child is this? This..."

"Who else could it be? These two sisters sharing one husband, this..."

Whispers and murmurs suddenly rose around, a triumphant smile flashed in Ashley's tear-filled eyes.

Ah! So, her statement 'This time, I will lose completely' before she fell into the pool meant this.

I really underestimated her.

"Odin, take Ms. Conner to the warm room to change her clothes!" Carley spoke, her voice full of vigor and already carrying a hint of

anger.

"Alright, alright!" Odin quickly nodded, taking Ashley from Walter's arms again and leaving with her.

Seeing Ashley leave, Carley frowned and looked at Walter, saying,

Walter, you should also hurry back to your room and change into dry clothes. It's cold weather, don't get sick."

After explaining, Carley glanced at me, didn't say much, and left with a furrowed brow.

The onlooking guests around were gradually sent away by Dale.

In the pavilion, Walter didn't leave, he just silently watched me.

"Why?" After a long while, he finally spoke. His eyes were as black as night, those deep pupils like a cold pool, chilling enough to make one unconsciously afraid.

I pursed my lips, looking at him and said, "I can explain about the child. You go back to your room first and change into clean clothes."

"Explanation?" He suddenly laughed, his dark eyes full of sarcasm and mockery. "Is this the reason you're so intent on aborting the child and getting a divorce? To get rid of me? Or to toy with me? Hmm?"

I frowned, feeling suffocated inside. I took a deep breath and looked at him, saying, "My divorce from you has nothing to do with our child. I'm sorry for deceiving you into pregnancy."

"Sorry?" He laughed, but his expression grew increasingly cold, "You really went to great lengths to deceive me, didn't you, Tabatha? She's pregnant, do you know how dangerous it is for a pregnant woman to fall into the water? Two lives at stake, have you thought about the consequences?"

Facing his furious expression, I looked at him, trying to explain, "I didn't push her at all."

"Tabatha, do you think I'm blind?" He raged, his gaze full of disappointment and disgust as he looked at me, "Deception, murder, Tabatha, is there anything you can't do?"

I stood there, staring at him, suddenly feeling ridiculous. Just half an hour ago, I was overjoyed, wanting to tell him that I was pregnant, wanting to fight for our marriage.

Now, I just watched things develop like this.

And I, I had become an unforgivably wicked woman.

I suddenly burst into laughter, looking up at him with bloodshot eyes, and said, "Yes, I can do anything. Since you've decided that I'm going to harm her and her unborn child, then I'll fulfill your wish!"

After speaking, I immediately left the pavilion and almost ran to the' warm room. Ashley, who had just been changed into clean clothes by the nanny, saw me rush in. With a mocking face, she wanted to disgust me, "Tabatha..."

I didn't give her a chance to speak, abruptly grabbing her wrist and dragging her out of the heated room. I pulled her to the square well in the courtyard of the Hinton family, not giving her a chance to speak. Then, grabbing her hair, I pushed her entire upper body into the well.

The well in the courtyard of the Hinton family was designed for viewing. Normally, the water in it was always full, because in Feng Shui, this well represented the meaning of fulfillment.

"Ah... Ta... ba... cough..." Ashley was pinned by me under the well water, struggling desperately, her voice choked by the water and coming out in fits and starts.

I held her head tightly, using almost all the strength in my body. At that moment, all I wanted was to vent the anger in my heart.

Pressing her head down firmly, I said coldly, "Ashley, you like to choke on water, don't you? I'll grant your wish. Since you've already said that I want to harm you and your child, I can't just ignore your kind intentions. You want a double death, I'll grant your wish!"

Everyone had a venomous snake lurking in the corner of their heart, once disturbed, it would become uncontrollable.

"Tabatha!" I held onto Ashley's hand tightly, but was pulled away by a tremendous force. Then, I was violently pushed away. Caught off guard, I stumbled and fell to the ground without a doubt.
