Chapter 3The Substitute Wife's Revenge

Bella was waiting there.

Eyes red.

Liam gripped my wrist hard, his voice cold as ice:

"Chloe, you must give a definite answer today. Is it okay to put the child under your name?"

I struggled hard but couldn't break free.

"Liam, let go. You care so much about this child, it must be yours."

After saying this, I saw a moment of panic in Bella's eyes.

Liam gripped even harder, my wrist hurting.

"Still spreading rumors about me. I've really indulged you too much."

His other hand pinched my chin forcefully:

"Grandpa scolded Aunt Bella today. Are you satisfied seeing Aunt Bella embarrassed?"

"If I had known you were such a vicious woman, I wouldn't have accepted your pursuit back then."

Whenever he argued with me before, he always said he regretted accepting my pursuit.

I would immediately admit defeat and start coaxing him.

No matter where the fault lay, it was all my fault.

I apologized softly and made promises until he reluctantly accepted.

But this time, I suppressed the anger in my heart and said softly but firmly:

"It's not too late now. Let's break up!"

Liam was stunned for a moment.

He let go of my wrist and took a step back.

His suspicious gaze swept over my face again and again:

"Chloe, are you serious?"

Before I could answer, he said again:

"You know me. If I agree to break up, you won't even have a chance to regret it."

"In the future, don't say break up easily in front of me."

After speaking, he turned and walked out.

I also turned to leave.

This place, this Sterling family, would have nothing to do with me in the future.

Just taking a step, Bella pushed me hard.

In desperation, I grabbed Bella's arm.

She and I rolled down the terrace steps together.

I was pressed under Bella.

It hurt too much, so I pushed her.

She rolled onto the ground.

Turning halfway, I sat up and slapped her face hard.

Using too much force, my palm hurt.

Hearing the commotion, Liam turned back.

The blurted "Auntie" echoed through the entire banquet hall.

He rushed over, kicked me away, and picked up Bella.

"Auntie, how are you? Where does it hurt?"

Bella was incredibly weak:

"Pain, pain. She hit me."

Bella pointed at me, tears flowing instantly.

Liam looked at me with eyes spitting fire:

"Chloe, I won't spare you this time. Just you wait."

"Aren't you going to ask for the reason?"

Shouting this sentence, tears swirled in my eyes too.

Partly from pain.

Partly because Liam always unconditionally believed Bella, not me.

It had been like this for three years.

After speaking, he picked up Bella and walked out.

After two steps, he turned back:

"Chloe, follow us to the hospital. If anything happens to Aunt Bella, I will definitely call the police."

His tone contained a thousand years of ice.

My whole body hurt.

Especially my legs. When Bella fell, she landed right on my legs.

Elbows hit the ground, now covered in blood.

My injuries were more severe; anyone with eyes could see.

But Liam seemed blind; he only had Bella in his eyes.

I stood up with difficulty, grabbed my down jacket, and got in the car with them.

Liam drove faster than when he came, even almost hitting the guardrail.

Asking while driving:

"Auntie, don't sleep, we'll be at the hospital soon."

That tone, as if his aunt was about to die.

Hearing his words, Bella pretended to be extremely uncomfortable.

But she was just scrolling on her phone a moment ago.

At the hospital, after drawing blood, Bella even asked me to press the cotton swab for her.

After pressing, I quietly kept the cotton swab.

After a checkup, Bella was fine except for a little anemia.

Even the baby was growing steadily in her belly.

Hearing Bella had anemia, Liam broke out in a cold sweat from nervousness.

"Anemia? How can this be good?"

"Right, Auntie has a rare blood type, and Chloe has a rare blood type too. She can transfuse her blood."

He dragged me in front of the doctor.
