A Night To Remember novel (Diane and Norman) novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 The Abhorrent Act

Stella obviously recognized Diane’s voice, but she just lay on her bed glaring at Dianne.

“What are you doing here?! You’re not welcomed here! Leave now!”

Since her mum wasn’t there, she chose not to hide her hatred against Diane.

However, Diane continued to walk towards her bed before staring at and scrutinizing her.

Stella was not in a good shape. Her hair was messy, and her face was pale and ill-looking; she looked like she had just given birth—to be exact, she looked more like someone who just had a miscarriage.

Where is her child then?

“Stella, what have you done to your child? To your own flesh and blood?” Diane looked through the room then lay her eyes onto Stella’s face, staring at her.

“It’s none of your business!” Stella’s eyebrows furrowed as she scowled upon Diane interrogation. Hearing that, Diane sneered sardonically, “It’s none of my business? I thought… the child was gone because of me?”

Since Stella said that this had nothing to do with her, it was possible that something fishy was going on.

“Stella, let’s be honest, did you cause the miscarriage yourself on purpose?” Diane stepped two steps closer to the bed, reaching closer to Stella, her gaze scanning like an x-ray.

“Norman went to jail, so your petty dream of becoming the CEO’s wife was also ruthlessly crushed. Not to mention, his family originates the suburban area, so they must have zero connections to hold upon to in this city… I guess that’s why you refuse to have his child now, am I right? If so, you’re the one who caused the miscarriage on your own, and it has nothing to do with me.”

These were all Diane’s assumptions, and she let it all out into Stella’s face.

When Stella heard that, her pale face paled even more, and she then scowled while staring at Diane with a fiercely piercing look. “Don’t you dare accuse me of murdering my own child! My child is gone because you stirred up my anger and caused my baby to be born prematurely.”

Diane let loose a slight smirk as Stella refused to admit it. It was okay; she could wait.

“I heard from one of your co-workers in the management department that they drove you to the hospital that day. I assume they must be remember which hospital it is… Well, well, I guess I should be checking on it then, what do you say?”

The colour quickly drained from Stella’s face as if someone blew a handful of dust on it. A cold wave embalmed her as her face was glooming of despair.

The day she was sent to the hospital, she remembered calling her friend to pick her up in front of her co-workers. After that, she insisted her co-workers to leave.

Those co-workers had no idea what her maternity results was, but the hospital had her records filed. Once investigated, they would all know that she didn’t even went to that hospital to have herself checked.

She had all those ‘acts’ happening in the company just to make sure the accusations made toward Diane was solid by having people witnessing them quarreling. She indeed felt uncomfortable that day, and if Elizabeth asked, she would have her co-workers as witnesses. In that way, it should leave Elizabeth with no doubts of her statement!

She did all of that just to let Elizabeth see and get riled up to the point she would go and assault Diane for her.

Who on earth would have known that Diane managed to see through her deceit?!

But! Who cared if she did? It was her own womb, her own child, and she was the one who bore its life. She had the right to end it and kill it with her own bare hands even if the baby got to survive after the labour! As Stella thought to herself, the anxious and nerve wrecking feelings disappeared right away.

She sneered at Diane, “What do you think you’re doing? Questioning my morals, huh? Well, alright, even if you got me to admit that I’m the one who cause the miscarriage on my own, so what? So what?!” Stella had an intimidating look on her face as she glared at Diane with ridicule.

“I gotta say, the reason why I initially dated Norman was due to his looks. I mean, besides that, he’s had potential and his annual salary as a CEO was basically above par of those other stupid men outside. So, I decided to be with him. But now, as you can see, he’s locked up in jail, and his CEO position was immediately off the table right after. I can’t benefit from him anymore, so why should I continue to bear his child? Am I right? Come on, if you were me, would you?”
