Both women ended up in a fight, and sounds of hurried footsteps were heard coming from outside.
Kelly's sharp ears could tell that it was Jackson coming over.
She initially had the upper hand but when she hesitated, she was suddenly knocked over by Krystal.
"Oh, crap. My stomach hurts!" Kelly clutched her stomach and cried out loudly.
Krystal initially wanted to kick Kelly twice but when she heard such loud cries, the former was worried even though she had the intention to cause Kelly's miscarriage.
"Kelly."
It so happened that Jackson managed to break free from Sally and Ms. Morrison's grasp and ran over quickly, only to see Kelly was on the ground as she held her stomach. She was also complaining that her stomach ached.
After taking a few steps to approach her and squat next to her, Jackson helped Kelly to her feet and nervously asked, "Kelly, what happened?"
He raised his head and roared at Krystal, "What have you done to her, Krystal? You should hurry and call the doctor instead of just standing there!"
Krystal was frightened because her husband's focus was on Kelly when he returned. He did not notice his wife's bruises. On top of being sore, she was even more aggrieved after being yelled at. "Jackson, you only saw her on the floor. Can't you see that my face is bruised? Did you see how she grabbed my arm?! I only pushed her. She was careless enough to fall on the floor, so what does that have to do with me? Might as well let her lose the b*stard child of hers!"
Jackson was about to blow a gasket as he roared, "The child that Kelly is carrying is mine, not a b*stard!"
Krystal was angry as she rushed forward and gave Jackson a slap while crying, "Jackson Whittle, you are a piece of trash. You have betrayed me with this b*tch and even dare to say it out loud?! I'll have you know that I am your wife, your legal wife! I should be the one bearing your children!"
Once she had finished crying, Krystal coldly kicked Kelly's stomach.
Jackson rushed forward and used his back to block the attack.
She was wearing high heels and kicked him really hard, so all he felt was pain on his back.
"Jackson!"
Krystal was both annoyed and distressed.
She was annoyed that the child Kelly was carrying belonged to Jackson, and she was distressed because he was in pain.
"My stomach hurts. It really hurts… Jackson… save our child…"
It was at this moment that Kelly burst into tears as she tightly grasped Jackson's shirt.
After all, her reputation was ruined because everyone in Orapolis regarded her as the mistress, so it did not matter even if she threw her life away!
If she was having a hard time, she would make sure that she dragged Jackson and his wife down with her!
Jackson was the one who set me up, so why is he shoving all the blame to me when there is an issue?
"Don't worry. Everything will be alright."
Jackson had already addressed the cheating rumors online and pushed all the blame to Kelly, but he still cared for the child she carried.
It was because that was his first child.
He didn't think much and carried Kelly to place her on the bed, after which he punched the nurse call button for dear life.
When Krystal saw Jackson's behavior, she was overwhelmed with anger that she yanked at him while growling, "Jackson Whittle, come home with me now or I'll make you regret it! Don't forget that the Whittle Family is still reliant on the Caddel Family!"
"Jackson… My tummy hurts…"
Kelly tightly grabbed hold of him again.
If Kendall saw these two women fighting for the playboy Jackson, she would definitely sigh at their behavior. As it turned out, she was not the only blind one to have fallen for him. However, she was also lucky that it was all in the past for her.
For someone like Jackson who cared about his career and relationship, Kendall would suffer the same consequences as Krystal, a newly married person who had to endure the betrayal.
Both the doctor and nurse immediately came over and chased everyone out of the ward.
That was how Krystal managed to drag Jackson out. "Come home with me!"
As she pulled him away, there were still traces of hesitation in him.
Sally was close to losing her top at the sight of this. I'm more angry with my daughter, though.
Jackson still chose to leave with Krystal in the end, and the woman was demonstrating her victory by clinging onto him. Who cares about Kelly's pregnancy? I, Krystal Caddel, am Jackson's legal wife. My in-laws will definitely side with me. Did you guys think I'm infertile?
The couple did not return to the Whittle Residence since Krystal had been beaten and suffered from bruises. It was something that they couldn't hide if they had returned to the Whittle Residence.
Instead, Jackson brought her to another property located at Goldlake Villa.
Krystal was eventually aware that he still had property under his name.
There was someone waiting at the entrance of the villa.
As they approached, Jackson recognized the person. It was none other than Nelson Woods.
"Who is that?" Krystal asked.
"Nelson Woods."
"Kelly's biological brother?" Krystal's expression suddenly sank.
Jackson hummed in agreement as he arrived at the entrance of the villa, only to find that Nelson had blocked his car.
Nelson had gone to the Whittle Residence earlier, but couldn't locate Jackson. It took him a long time of asking around to learn that Jackson had such a property here. He had bought a bucket of water and managed to slip in with the crowd on the pretext of delivering the item to one of the residents in the enclosure to wait for Jackson.
"Honey, why don't you head in first? Let Amy grab you an ice pack to reduce the swelling on your face. I'll deal with Nelson," Jackson instructed his wife, after which he got out of the car.
Nelson had already noticed him, so instead of acknowledging Jackson when the man alighted from the car, he delivered a blow.
"Mr. Woods!" Jackson avoided Nelson's punch and growled, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing? B*stard, you bullied my sister, so I won't let you live! You were after both Kendall and Kelly, you *sshole!"
Nelson's punch did not land on his target, so he decided to deliver another blow.
Jackson might have avoided the attack twice, but when he saw Nelson rushing toward him like an insane person, he knew he couldn't delay any more and decided to fight with Nelson.
Kendall was a female and had already learned both taekwondo and sanda, so as the oldest of the Woods Family, Nelson had the responsibility of protecting his siblings. He was naturally sent by his parents to learn sanda to strengthen his body and as a way to protect himself.
As a result, what Nelson learned was taekwondo.
If Jackson couldn't even defeat Kendall, he was a lost cause against Nelson.
As Krystal couldn't watch her husband being at a disadvantage and was beaten to a pulp, she grew anxious and grabbed the fire extinguisher from the car. Then, she got out of the car and rushed over to help Jackson.
Nelson hadn't seen Krystal coming, so he was knocked unconscious by the blow to the back of his head.
The pain had slowed his reflexes and gave Jackson the chance to retaliate. He kicked Nelson in the stomach before pushing him to the ground and snatching the fire extinguisher from Krystal to smash it on Nelson's face.
Nelson instinctively protected his face and head from the blows, but had passed out due to being severely injured by Jackson.
"Jackson! Jackson, stop hitting him. He's not moving!"
Krystal was scared witless and tried her hardest to drag Jackson, who had gone insane, away.
The moment Jackson stopped his actions and saw the unmoving Nelson's bloodied face, he was so shocked that he dropped the fire extinguisher onto the ground.
