hapter 135 What was he explaining to Mae Lee?
Mark, you’re here at the right time. Look at her! It’s not enough to kill the child in Jenny’s womb. She ven slapped me. Really, this time, I’m not lying. Try to ask her yourself.” said Mrs. Smith, begging her on to believe her.
Mark looked at Mae. Today she look similar to the one he had seen when he came to the hospital a ew times before, except that the lipstick was much thicker than before, as if she had deliberately nted it for this encounter.
ennifer raised her hazy eyes filled with nothing but sadness and sorrow.
Mae, I know you don’t like me, but my child is innocent. Why are you trying to harm my child? How ould you be so cruel?”
Her voice was hoarse, as if she had been crying for a long time. Her eyes were swollen, too. At first lance, she was really pitiful. However, Mae simply ignored her. She took off the black–framed ¡lasses on the bridge of her nose and carefully wiped them before putting them on again. From beginning to end, she did not even frown at Jennifer’s accusation.
When Jennifer saw this, she gritted her teeth with hatred. She couldn’t understand how Mae Lee, a slut, had the confidence to be so calm at such a time. She wouldn’t think that Mark would still protect her at such a time, would he? A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Jennifer’s eyes. Seeing hat Mae did not even want to look at her, she then turned to Mark, just in time to meet his deep and cold black eyes.
Jennifer’s heart could not help but tremble. She was probably really afraid of him. The tears she had ust stopped poured out of her eyes again and weepingly said.
‘Mark, I’m sorry, I’ve tried my best to keep this child, but I never thought that Mae Lee would be so cruel. How could she treat a child who had just been formed, like this?
Her emotions became more and more agitated, and she was crying so hard that she could not stop. Mark did not say anything. She just watched Mae casually watching Jennifer’s ‘crying scene‘.
After a while, he heard her say, “Before you come, my aunt reminded me to be careful with you guys.”
Speaking of which, she paused and let out a sarcastic sneer, “You really didn’t disappoint her.”
After Mae finished speaking, Mrs. Smith and Jennifer’s expressions changed.
Mrs. Smith’s eyes flickered, and she pointed at Mae and said:
“You still want to deny that you did such a vicious thing? Aren’t you just angry that Mark forced you to abort your child? Just because you can’t do anything to the mother, you decided to harm an unborn child instead? Now, you still think we’re framing you?”
It seemed that Mrs. Smith have already prepared her speech. As soon as she opened her mouth, she mentioned that Mark had asked her to abort the child, and poked directly into Mae’s heart.
Sure enough, the smile on Mae’s face faded a little, and she glanced at Mark with an unclear meaning.
He subconsciously felt that Mae had misunderstood him again. He panicked and wanted to explain something, but he did not know what to say. However, Mae’s gaze only stayed on his face for a moment, and then looked away. This look made him panic even more.
10.55
He stepped forward and grabbed Mae’s wrist to explain, “It’s not what you think…”
He didn’t know what Mae had misunderstood, but it was right to deny it.
Jennifer looked at Mark’s flustered expression in disbelief. The shock in her eyes began to increase little by little. She thought that the loss of this child was a big deal for him. She expected him to be furious and question Mae. And that he would definitely make her pay for what she did. She thought about all kinds of possibilities, but she did not anticipate this kind of reaction from Mark.
What was he explaining to Mae Lee?
Why was he so helpless and worried that Mae would misunderstand him?
What’s going on?
Weren’t she and the child whom she just lost supposed to be the victims here, were they?
Mae lowered her eyebrows and glanced at Mark’s wrist. With a slight force, she pulled her hand back and asked with a smile:
“What does Mr. Smith think I’m thinking?”
“I…” Mark opened his mouth, but failed to continue his words.
He really didn’t know what she was thinking. He only knew that the way she looked at him made him panic, as if at any moment, he would be sent to hell by her.
Jennifer looked at the scene in front of her and hated it so much that her fingernails were pierced into her flesh.
“Mae, could it be that you think that I used my own child to frame you?”
She was like a desperate and helpless mother. She weakly got off the bed and rushed towards Mae. “Give me back the child, return the child to me!”
Although it seemed like she had been so frantic, she still accurately aimed her fingernail at Mae’s face to get started. This was exactly the same habit as Mrs. Smith.
Mae had no choice but to suspect that Mark was just supporting her, and that she was actually Mrs. Smith’s biological daughter. Anyway, whatever Jennifer’s plan was, it would soon be foiled.
Only this time, just as Mae was about to start, a tall shadow stood in front of her and pulled her behind him.
“What are you doing?”
Jennifer was stunned.
“My child is gone, Mark, my child is gone”
She took two steps forward, helplessly wanting to lean into Mark’s embrace.
Under normal circumstances, when a man saw her like this, he would let her vent his sadness and grief on his own.
Jennifer thought this way, Mrs. Smith also thought this way. Even Mae thought this way. But Mark was not a normal person. He was a dog and a straight man Even though Jennifer had lost child and was crying so hard, Mark still has a heart like iron. He stood to the side and even pulled Mae behind him as if trying to hide her. Mae was flabbergasted and couldn’t say anything. This unexpected act brought shivers to Jennifer causing her to get stunned for a moment. It was as if Mark’s behavior
caused her to realize something.
“Jenny, you just lost your child. Hurry back to the bed and lie down. Don’t move. Didn’t the doctor tell you to rest well?”
Mrs. Smith, who was beside her, also saw how embarrassing Jennifer’s situation was at the moment, so she quickly stepped forward to support her and gave her a look. Jennifer then returned to the bed and lay down. Tears flowed silently as she looked at Mark with a bit of grief for, she had been let down by such a scumbag.
Mae also did not understand Mark’s actions at that moment. After a few seconds of being speechless, she moved away from Mark’s back and walked slowly in front of Jennifer.
