My Husband Said His Student Was More Important Than His Pregnant Wife Until I Asked for Divorce novel Chapter 17

Chapter 7

Jacob stared coldly at Victoria before ordering his subordinates, “Call the police. Pull every security tape from the house. I want her charged.”

Victoria dropped to her knees, clutching at his pants. “Jacob, please! I didn’t mean for this to happen!”

“Everything I’ve done has been for you. If she weren’t in the way, you and I could have been together years

ago.”

“I thought if her family was gone, you’d finally see… you’d finally choose me.”

“You can’t do this to me. I did it for us.”

Listening to her twisted justification, I stared at this horrifying woman in disbelief.

How could she be so selfish, deciding to end two innocent lives just to climb the social ladder?

Jacob also looked down at Victoria, clearly shocked by her words.

His lips moved soundlessly for a while before he finally closed his eyes and kicked her away with force.

“This is on me. I let you believe you had a place here, a future.”

“If I’d ever treated Sophia like my wife, my mother might still be alive.”

With that, he turned away from Victoria, ignoring her screams and pleas as security guards restrained her.

It was then that Victoria suddenly turned her venom on me.

“This is your fault, Sophia! You did this!”

“If you hadn’t let me believe they were your family, none of this would’ve happened!”

“You knew he cared for me, and you set me up!”

She raged at me, her expression manic. I looked at her calmly, feeling only a deep sorrow.

I walked up to her, meeting her gaze, and spoke slowly. “You did this to yourself.”

“Your own greed put you here. Not me.”

“And me? That ‘little country girl’? I’ll be thinking of you every time I walk through these halls you wanted so

badly.”

These were the exact words she had whispered in my ear hours ago while forcing my in-laws to eat. Now, I returned them to her, verbatim.

True to form, my words drove her into a deeper frenzy. She struggled violently, trying to attack me, but the security guards held her firmly in place.

Soon, the police arrived at the hospital.

After reviewing the surveillance footage from the mansion, the police confirmed Victoria was suspected of

intentional homicide and placed her under arrest. She would face the full punishment of the law.

The guards and servants from the mansion who had abetted her and carried out the violence were also arrested and jailed.

Looking at the now half-empty mansion, a chilling thought crossed my mind: if it had been my own mother

who died today, would Jacob have handed Victoria over to the police?

In the following days, the story of how Jacob’s blindness had led to his own mother’s death spread like

wildfire, fueled by the patients who had witnessed the scene. A wave of public outrage led to a boycott of

Jacob and his hospital. Almost no one came for treatment anymore.

As we waited for Mr. Pearson to leave critical condition, Jacob visibly deteriorated, weighed down by guilt and grief.

Finally, two weeks later, Mr. Pearson was moved out of the ICU and regained consciousness.
