Lola felt so cold that she couldn't say a word to deny her grandma's question.
She was silent. She couldn't say anything.
Looking at her sad face, Mrs. Gu knew that everything was true.
"You... You had miscarried? " Mrs. Gu asked in a trembling voice.
She held Lola's hand tightly as if she was looking for some strength to rely on.
Lola nodded slightly. Then Ellie said first, "She was pregnant abroad and had a miscarriage. I don't know who is the father of this child. "
"Ellie!" Lola angrily turned around and slapped her across the face.
Ellie covered her face and was about to fight back in disbelief, but Mrs. Gu said, "Stop!"
"Mrs. Gu, look at her. Is she ashamed into anger? It seems that what I said is true. You still want to marry into the Gu Family without telling them such a big thing. You want to be the young mistress of the Gu Family, but nobody knows that you can't give birth to a baby! Can you rest assured in this position without telling them the truth? "
Ellie had a grim look on her face and blamed Lola angrily, "Now that Mrs. Gu knows it, you should be kicked out!"
"No... Grandma, that baby is Jacob's... "
"Don't lie. If it were Jacob's, how could you hide the truth from everyone! You must elope with Murphy and be pregnant with his child. You were afraid that this baby would hinder you from being a star, so you had a miscarriage. Unexpectedly, it caused permanent damage to you... This is your retribution... "
"What elope? What retribution? Ellie, shut up. You are lying... "
Lola frowned and said angrily.
What Ellie said was half true and half false. She just wanted to confuse grandma!
At this time, listening to their conversation, Mrs. Gu was on the verge of collapse. She looked up at the sky, almost out of breath.
"Ah... Mom! " Catherine suddenly shouted and held Mrs. Gu who was about to fall down.
When Lola turned around, she saw grandma who looked pale looking at her helplessly and desperately. Grandma stretched out her hand and pointed at the direction of Lola.
When Lola was about to take grandma's hand, Ellie held it first.
"Mrs. Gu, please don't be angry! Such a person doesn't deserve your anger at all. She is sorry for Jacob and should have been kicked out long ago! I know you won't allow her to stay in the Gu family anymore! Even though she doesn't leave voluntarily, Jacob will listen to you and divorce her! "
The scene was in a mess.
Catherine called the ambulance while Ellie kept speaking to Mrs. Gu who had passed out. Lola was at a loss and could do nothing but watch her grandma get on the ambulance and leave her sight.
She stood still and looked at the sky absentmindedly. She didn't want her tears to fall, but they didn't stop.
It was not until then that Jacob arrived. He walked to her in confusion and asked, "What's wrong, Lola? I just had an important meeting. I'm late... Why are you crying like this? What happened? "
She felt so cold that she hugged him directly and said in a trembling voice, "Jay, I'm so cold. Can you hold me tightly?"
He hugged her tightly and felt her tension. "Louisa, don't be afraid. I'm by your side."
She sobbed softly and felt his warmth, but she felt that she was going to lose him soon.
"Grandma is in the hospital. Let's go and have a look. "
