Stella was worried Trevor might redirect his anger toward Keegan, so she explained, “When I had the car accident years ago, I injured my uterus. Dahlia gave me those medicines, claiming they were for my recovery.
Neither Keegan nor I suspected she would tamper with them. They tasted awful, so when the nanny wasn’t looking, I discreetly got rid of them. I didn’t consume much of it…”
“Mm,” Trevor responded casually, “I know.”
Stella glanced at Trevor’s face for a moment, feeling somewhat relieved.
Maybe he wasn’t as angry now, especially since she was pregnant, indicating her body was still okay.
However, this relief evaporated when Trevor caught sight of Keegan. Without a word, he landed a punch on Keegan’s face, causing it to immediately swell.
Stella was startled, quickly stepping forward to shield Keegan, anxiously asking, “Trevor! What are you doing?”
“Stella, get out of the way!” Trevor clenched his fists, his expression grim, and gritted his teeth. “Since you married her, why haven’t you properly protected her? Don’t you realize what kind of person your mother is? You didn’t even bother to check the things she gave you before allowing Stella to ingest them!
She didn’t want children, so you should have respected that! Can’t she live without having children? You’ve mistreated her so much!
Stella held onto Trevor tightly, pleading, “He did check, Trevor! Dahlia switched the medicine midway. How could he have known? It’s been so long since it happened. Why are you doing this?”
“He couldn’t have been so naive as to not know!”
