Chapter 224
“Don’t blame me for your bad deeds, Michelle. You’re the one who did all of this, all by yourself. All I did was watch from a corner and wait for when to expose you p>
Michelle tried to act tough by suppressing the tears that wanted to spill from her eyes. Unfortunately, they still found ways to somehow escape.
“You’re so carefree, Michelle. You thought I would let you go, just like that, and wouldn’t keep you on supervision?” Anastasia questioned with a tone of mockery. “Maybe, if you’d been careful, things would have turned better for you. Who knows, I might have changed my mind since I didn’t even win the Best Actress award. But then, you had to sell your body just for some recognition?” Anastasia tsked in disappointment after her last word.
Michelle’s chest started heaving again as she tried to breathe through her tears.
“You know nothing!!” Michelle barked. “You’re going to pay for all of these, I’m telling you. You will pay,” she promised.
“Not before you pay first p>
Both Michelle and Anastasia turned their heads to find Tracie, clad in her usual dark outfit, her hands in her pocket as she glared at Michelle, who was already starting to shiver due to her presence.
“T-Tracie Clark…you must h-have misheard p>
“Shut up!” Tracie demanded, strodding over to Anastasia and checking to see if the latter was hurt. “Have you forgotten your deal with her? Since you didn’t win, you are going to have to go to jail to pay for your sins. Hopeful they serve holy water there so that you can finally be cleansed p>
“She took everything away from me!” Michelle snapped, unable to handle the fact that Anastasia always had people who would protect her wherever she was.
First, it was Xavier, then her fans, and now, even the Clark family were involved.
Tracie turned to Anastasia. “Did you take anything from her?” She asked.
“I don’t remember doing so. I only took back what she took from me, and now she’s calling me a thief. Delusional much, Michelle?” Anastasia asked with mockery again which made Michelle’s blood boil.
Without thinking, she raised her hand and intended to smack Anastasia across the face. However, her hands were paused mid-air.
“Don’t tell me you’re stupid enough to think that I would stand here and watch you hit my sister?” Tracie threatened.
Swiftly, she turned Michelle’s wrist in an angle that made the latter hit herself across her own face.
“Ouch!” She yelped in pain.
“That’s what you deserve p>
Michelle suddenly clutched her stomach as if she felt some kind of intense pain.
“No no, this can be happening,” she mumbled through gritted teeth while the two sisters stared at her in confusion.
Michelle reached from under her dress and pulled it up. Instantly, she sighted a trail of blood trickling down her legs, and she paled. As if that wasn’t enough for her to understand what was happening to her, Michelle placed her palm on the blood and rubbed it together to be sure she was seeing what she thought she was seeing.
Anastasia and Tracie’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Michelle was pregnant p>
“My baby!” Michelle cried. “You two killed my baby she immediately accused as she continued to tear up.
Both the sisters shared a look, not sure if Michelle was serious or if this was probably one of her many tricks.
“You two killed my baby!!” Michelle accused once again.
Anastasia snapped back to her senses. “Tracie, we need to take her to the hospital, quickly p>
“Are you hearing yourself?” Tracie frowned deeply. “You want to take this snake to the hospital? What if she’s pretending p>
“Pretense or no pretense, we will have to find out after we take her to the hospital,” Anastasia replied.
Tracie huffed but agreed. Together they took Michelle to the car, and surprisingly, the latter didn’t struggle out of their grip.
Everyone got into the car and Tracie immediately drove to the hospital.
Once they reached the hospital, a few of the nurses took Michelle to a room and started the treatment.
“So, she’s pregnant? That’s amusing, judging she’s sly. She still managed to get herself knocked up,” Tracie commented, a smile on her lips.
The smile faltered when she saw the worried look on Anastasia’s face.
“What’s wrong p>
“I hope her baby survives,” Anastasia mumbled, which had Tracie’s eyebrows touch her hairline. “Michelle is a snake indeed, but I don’t wish for her to have a miscarriage p>
“Isn’t it better that the baby doesn’t make it here on earth? That way, he/she doesn’t turn out like their mother?” Tracie reasoned.
Anastasia released a sigh, completely unaware that Michelle was pregnant, or could be pregnant.
She’d lost a baby once in the past, but she doesn’t wish for Michelle—her mortal enemy to go through what she went through, even though Michelle was one of the people who caused her miscarriage years ago.
“I’m not that heartless,” Anastasia mumbled again.
Tracie could tell that something was wrong with Anastasia, so she pulled Anastasia towards her and gave her a comforting hug.
“What goes around comes around! I wasn’t present when they mistreated you, but I believe Michelle is only getting what she deserves. Maybe, that child was never meant to be born. You can’t blame yourself if that’s how things turn out, Ana.” She gently patted Anastasia on the back and the latter nodded in agreement.
They stayed in that position for a little longer before they separated.
The doctor came out, ready to tell them what they already knew.
“Are you the patient’s relative?” The doctor asked.
Tracie and Ana shared a look.
“No! We were merely talking when all of a sudden, she started bleeding,” Tracie replied.
“I see,” the doctor hummed. “Sadly, the patient had a miscarriage. She should be all right after resting a bit. You can go and see her now p>
Both of them nodded and the doctor left.
“Don’t tell me you want to see her p>
Anastasia chuckled softly. “I don’t want to. Let’s go. I’m sure her people will arrive soon p>
