Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 975

"As for that, I'm afraid I can't be of much help. Carter has never spoken to me about that kind of thing," Anastasia said dismissively.

"I know I've been offensive in the past, but I am sincerely asking for your help this time, Ms. Sterling…"

She then continued to lament how guilty she felt and how much she wanted to win back her son. Even when Anastasia explicitly stated again that she couldn't help, Susan kept talking.

After more than half an hour, Anastasia was losing her patience. Finally, Susan said with a look of disappointment, "I was truly at my wit's end, which is why I came to you, Ms. Sterling. Since you've said you can't help, I won't force the issue. In any case, thank you for agreeing to meet me today."

Anastasia said, "Is there anything else? If not, I'm leaving."

She stood up, ready to go.

Susan didn't stop her and stood up as well. "I should be heading back, too. Ryan will worry if I'm gone too long."

The two of them headed downstairs, one after the other. As they reached the top of the staircase, Susan suddenly stumbled, let out a sharp cry, and brushed past Anastasia's shoulder as she tumbled down the stairs in front of her.

The floor below erupted in screams.

Someone shouted, "Blood… she's bleeding! Quick, call 911!"

"My baby… my baby!" The lower half of Susan's dress was stained with blood. She clutched her stomach, her face pale as a sheet. Suddenly, she looked up at the top of the stairs and let out an enraged accusation, "Anastasia! Why did you push me?!"

The surrounding onlookers immediately turned their shocked gazes toward Anastasia.

"Did that young woman push her?"

"How could she be so vicious!"

Anastasia's expression remained unchanged. The moment Susan hurled her accusation, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. *Finally*, she thought.

"Ryan!" Susan, her face streaming with tears, threw herself into Ryan's arms the moment he got close. "How could this happen? How could this happen! I was so careful every day, feeling him grow, looking forward to his birth and hearing him call me Mom. How could he just be gone…"

Hearing this, Crystal angrily directed her fury at Anastasia.

"Anastasia! This is murder! I'm going to call the police and have you sent to prison!"

Anastasia responded calmly, "Go ahead, call them."

Crystal was about to dial, but Susan quickly stopped her.

"Crystal, don't call the police. I don't want to take it that far unless it's absolutely necessary."

Her smile was bitter, her face pale. She had just lost the child she had been so eagerly awaiting, yet she was still defending Anastasia. Seeing this only fueled Crystal's rage.
