Avery was so stunned to see what happened she was at a loss for words.
She had merely shaken Zoe off, how could she have caused her to fall?
Zoe was lying on the ground, clutching her tummy and wailing in pain. "My child... my child...”
Zoe's screams attracted the attention of the nanny and bodyguards as well as Rosalie.
"Zoe! How did you fall!" Rosalie said with a furious expression. "Did Avery push you?"
How could Zoe have fallen if not for Avery? She could not have accidentally fallen. The ground was flat and even, therefore she could not have tripped.
Zoe cried terribly and gasped in pain."
Avery! You have already stolen Elliot's heart! You won't even let our child go? My child is innocent-"
Avery shuddered in the face of Zoe's slander. She realized that that was a setup. However, Avery could not understand why Zoe had risked her child in doing so.
Could she have done this because she knew that this is what would finally make Elliot hate her? What if something were to truly happen to the child?
"Zoe. You use your own child to slander me. You are not worthy of motherhood!" Avery was furious.
"It- it hurts! Avery! It was you! You pushed me! So many people saw it!" The bodyguard helped Zoe up. She sounded so miserable." If anything were to happen to my child, I will not let you go! Even in death, I will haunt you!"
The bodyguard carried Zoe and quickly headed to the car.
Rosalie stiffened! The ball of fury in her heart was getting bigger by the moment! She raised her hand and slapped Avery across the face, hard!
