Chapter 188
Margaret turned around and found Stefan standing at the door of the ward, staring at her coldly.novelbin
“Mr. Hunt. I…”
She intended to explain herself, but the abortion medicine in her hand was still steaming hot. She couldnot immediately think of a good explanation..
Briar hid behind Stefan, acting like a weak, helpless woman. She cried and said, “Margaret, I told you, Iknow I’ve done something wrong, so I promise I’ll leave Stefan, but the baby is innocent…”
“The baby is my life! I won’t let anyone hurt it! Please go back and tell Miss Everheart that if she hasany grudge against me. she can take it out on me, but don’t hurt my baby!”
Briar’s words made Margaret flush with anger. She said emotionally, “What’s the meaning of this, MissDesrosiers? That’s not what you said just now. Aborting the baby was your idea too. Why are youpretending to be the victim now? You’re blatantly lying!”
“The one who’s blatantly lying is you! I love my baby so much, how could I bear to abort it? You werethreatening me, saying that if I don’t abort the baby like you said, Miss Everheart will make me go tojail. I refused to take the medicine, so you tried to force it down my throat! The police officers outsideand Stefan saw it!”
“You… you…”
Margaret had never seen a better actor than Briar. She was so angry that she felt like she was getting aheart attack.
She now knew that Renee was not exaggerating at all. Briar Desrosiers really was evil down to thecore!
She quickly told Stefan, “Mr. Hunt, please don’t listen to Miss Desrosiers’s nonsense. That was notwhat happened at all. I did not say those things, I…”
“Shut up!”
Stefan’s perfect face was icy. He glared at Margaret with extremely oppressive eyes and asked, “Was itRenee’s idea?”
“No, I came here on my own. Miss Ren knows nothing. She doesn’t even know that I came here. Mr.Hunt, please don’t misunderstand Miss Ren, she…”
“So it was your idea?”
Stefan’s eyes became even colder, carrying a dangerous intent. He asked sharply. “In other words, it’strue that you tried to get rid of a Hunt child? That part’s not a lie?”
“That’s…”
Margaret gulped. She did not know how to deny that.
The purpose of her visit to today was to persuade Briar to get an abortion. Briar was not lying aboutMargaret’s motive.
“I did ask Miss Desrosiers to get an abortion, but…”
“I’ve heard enough.”
Stefan turned to the police officers next to him and said, “You heard that. She made a deliberateattempt to harm a child of the Hunt family. She has the motive, and we have eyewitnesses and
evidence. I don’t have to tell you what to do, do I?”
The two police officers were very respectful towards Stefan. They immediately handcuffed Margaretand told her with a serious. expression, “You voluntarily tried to hurt someone. This is a criminaloffense. You’re now under arrest. Please follow us back to the police station.”
“Criminal offense?”
Margaret looked down at the cold handcuffs, confused.
She did not expect things to turn out this way. She had only wanted to persuade Briar to give up. Howdid it come to this?
“No, no, Mr. Hunt, this is a misunderstanding. I didn’t try to hurt anyone. I only tried to persuade MissDesrosiers to get an abortion so that she can seek her own happiness again!”
“I can see that you and Miss Ren still have feelings for each other. You only got a divorce because of ahomewrecker’s intervention. Your marriage can still be saved. I…”
“Take her away!”
Stefan said with a frown. He had no interest in hearing what Margaret had to say.
Margaret’s passionate plea gradually turned into disappointment. She laughed bitterly and said. “Now Iknow why Miss Ren is so adamant to divorce you even though she’s under great pressure. Someonelike you doesn’t deserve her love!”
After Margaret was taken away, Briar smiled triumphantly. 1
She grabbed Stefan’s hand and whimpered, “Stefan, thank god you got here in time. If you had arrivedeven a bit later, the baby would have been in danger. I can’t believe Miss Everheart’s desire for
revenge is so strong that she actually tries to harm the
innocent baby. She…”
“You can stop acting now.”
Stefan said coldly, “I know what happened. Your pretentiousness is starting to disgust me.”
Although he had only met Margaret once before, he knew very well that Margaret could never havedone such a cruel thing.
“What do you mean, Stefan?”
Briar’s face was stiff.
So Stefan knew that Margaret was innocent, but he had her arrested anyway? Why? Stefan saw thequestion in Briar’s eyes and asked coldly, “You want to know why?”
