Miranda nodded, "Mrs. Ellis used to be my bosom friend, but had a falling out a long time ago and never met again, but I know that both she and Mr. Ellis are good people, but had a daughter who is like a devil, I heard ......"
"Heard what?" Violet looked at her.
Miranda frowned, "I don't know if it's true, anyway, I used to hear that when Mrs. Ellis was five months pregnant and went to the hospital for a checkup, the doctor said the baby in her belly was a antisocial personality and suggested aborting it, but Mrs. Ellis always disagreed and said that the doctor was talking nonsense."
"How can this be nonsense? It is indeed possible to check the personality of a fetus while it is in the womb." Violet said seriously.
This was common abroad, but still relatively uncommon at home.
It was not applied, because they doctors were afraid of making a mistake with the test and having a blind abortion.
"Yeah, but Mrs. Ellis didn't believe it, and said that even if there was an antisocial personality, she could teach it well, and as a result, when Ivy grew to a few years old, Mrs. Ellis failed to teach her well, and instead, she got someone killed." Miranda said mysteriously.
Violet sucked in a breath of cold air, "Are you saying that Ivy killed someone when she was a child?"
"It was an indirect death, of course I don't know if it's true or not, I heard it from others." Miranda shook her head.
Violet swallowed, "When did you hear about this?"
"Eighteen years ago, I think." Miranda thought for a moment and replied.
Violet only felt her scalp tingle.
Eighteen years ago, Ivy was only ten years old.
It was horrible that a ten year old girl got someone killed.
What kind of a devil was Ivy?
"Miranda, who was it that she got killed?" Violet asked again.
Miranda shook her head, "I don't know, the one who spread the news only said that she happened to hear Mrs. Ellis reprimanding Ivy, saying that they were so good to her, how could she get them killed so viciously, but Mrs. Ellis did not reveal who exactly was killed."
"So, I see, thank you for telling me this." Violet said thanks.
Miranda waved her hand, "It's ok, it's all from what I heard, it's not sure if it's true."
"Whether it's true or not, at least we know that Ivy is scary." Violet said with a smile, but there wasn't the slightest bit of laughter in her heart.
Ivy must catch the sanction.
It was too dangerous for people like that to be out there.
Violet returned to the hospital with a heavy heart, wishing to leave here immediately with the two children and go abroad for peace of mind.
What Miranda had told her had scared her and forced her to be more vigilant.
So much so that she couldn't help but being nervous.
"Violet, what's wrong with you?" In the afternoon, Jessie carried fruits and toys to see the two children, and when she saw Violet dazed, she couldn't help but ask with concern.
Violet barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "I'm fine."
"Is it really okay? You are frowning so tightly, are you not feeling well?" Jessie looked at her belly, "The baby is bothering you?"
"No." Violet shook her head.
"Then you ......"
"Jessie, I'm really fine, you stay here and play with Calvin and Arya, I'll go check Arya out of the hospital." Violet said as she stood up.
