Evelina’s face drained of color, her lips quivering, clearly attempting to interrupt Remington.
But the man’s gaze was icy, and Evelina, despite her mouth opening, couldn’t utter a word under his overpowering aura.
“Remington, what does she want?” Barbara asked, her voice trembling.
The influx of information left her dizzy and unable to process things at once.
However, Martin had already pieced everything together, his anger boiling over. He pulled up Evelina, who was sitting on the hospital bed, and slapped her twice across the face.
“Not only did you find yourself a lover, but you also wanted the West family to raise some bastard child unknown to us! How could you be so cruel?”
Evelina’s cheeks instantly swelled red, and with a shriek, she fell to the ground, hair disheveled.
“Evelina, you didn’t want to give birth to a child with congenital defects, so you planned to use today’s opportunity for an abortion.
You’ve arranged it so that when you’re taken to the hospital, Wilson, whom you’ve bribed, will perform the surgery. And he will tell everyone the child was saved.
Not only would you become my godmother’s savior, but you could also continue pretending to be pregnant. All you need is for Dr. Wilson’s cooperation at the time of delivery to bring a prepared baby into the delivery room as planned. Dr. Wilson has confessed everything. Do we need to bring him here to confront you?”
Hearing Remington’s merciless voice, Evelina trembled all over, realizing it was all finished.
In just a few hours, how could Remington have found out everything!
She knew there was no use in trying to argue anymore; tears streamed down her face as she lifted her head.
“What else could I do? The doctor said the child had defects. I’m a mother, and my heart aches too! I kept it from you all and wanted to exchange the child for a healthy one from the West family. Isn’t it good as long as you don’t find out the truth? It’s also a comfort to my heart!”
Lizetta was stunned by Evelina’s audacity.
She hadn’t expected Evelina to dare pull off such a scheme. Evelina’s twisted logic was unparalleled.
Lizetta looked at Martin, who, as expected, was so angry that his face turned pale and his body shaken violently.
“Shut your mouth! You viper! Are you also planning to conspire with outsiders to poison me and take over the West family fortune?!”
Evelina didn’t say another word, whether she had actually planned such a thing with Frank or knew that further explanation was pointless.

Does evil really triumph always above the good in this novel ? How comes Stella's evilness has no end? Does the author believes that by giving justice and importance to bad people like Stella will make this novel interesring? I am starting to lose my patience and ask when will the writer finally will realize that the protagonist is Lizetta and not Stella....
