Chapter 19
Chapter 5
After Oliver finished cursing me out, his bodyguards dragged me away.
When I finally got out of the car, I realized they’d brought me back to Oliver’s mansion.
Inside, both Oliver and Natalie were waiting.
Natalie looked like she was in agony. Her face was pale.
A sinking feeling hit me. Had she lost the baby?
My stomach dropped.
Natalie glared at me, her voice shrill and hysterical. “If you didn’t want the divorce, you should’ve just said so! Why the hell did you kill my baby? You can’t stand seeing me happy, can you p>
“Evelyn, you’re disgusting. I want to fucking kill you right now p>
It didn’t take long to figure out what was going on.
Natalie had lost the baby.
But what the hell did that have to do with me? I hadn’t even seen her in weeks.
What was I supposed to do-magically make her miscarry from across town?
I shot back immediately. “Are you insane? I’m about to divorce Oliver. Why would I give a shit about you p>
“Enough, Evelyn. Don’t act like I don’t know the truth. You never wanted to leave me in the first place p>
Oliver had the audacity to say that with a straight face.
I almost threw up.
Yeah, the old Oliver was worth loving. But this version? What the hell did he have to offer?
I took a deep breath and looked him dead in the eye. “Where’s your proof? If you’re gonna accuse me of causing her miscarriage, you better have evidence p>
“I don’t need evidence. Who else would go after Natalie but you p>
Oliver stared at me like I was guilty without question.
Like he’d already convicted me.

As our eyes locked, I could see the hatred burning in his.
I didn’t bother defending myself. Instead, I glanced at Natalie. “You sure about this? If we don’t finalize the divorce today, it’ll be another month p>
I had no idea who was really behind this, but I knew Natalie and I were thinking the same thing right now.
Sure enough, the second I said that, Natalie panicked. “Oliver, just go get the divorce done first p>
“Don’t worry, I’ll divorce her. But right now, the baby is what matters most.” Oliver tried to calm her down.
But Natalie wouldn’t let it go. She kept pushing him to finalize the divorce first.
Eventually, Oliver gave in and motioned for me to follow him to the courthouse. But I didn’t move.
“What are you doing? Are you backing out now p>
Natalie looked at me nervously.
I smiled. “I’ll get the divorce. But first, I want to know if I actually had anything to do with your miscarriage p>
We stood there, face to face.
Oliver thought I was threatening her and stepped between us. “That’s enough. You did something wrong, and now you’re trying to intimidate her? How did I never realize you could be this nasty p>
I ignored him, my eyes locked on Natalie.
She seemed to be weighing her options. Finally, she said, “It was you p>
Hearing that, my smile widened. “Alright then. Let’s call the police. This is serious. They should investigate p>
“The divorce can wait. Clearing my name matters more p>
I started to tap in 9-1-1.
“Hold on!” Natalie quickly stopped my hand. “I admit it. I admit… I’m not sure if it’s your doing p>
