Chapter 565
When Wendy put her hand down, she felt a sharp pain and could not help gasping.
"Don''t move, or your wound will ache!" Tilly hurried forward and gently rolled up her sleeve. "When
you fell, you protected your belly with your arm and leg. See? You bruised them. Besides, your
elbow has swollen. Some medicinal lotion has been applied to them. It will take about two or three
days to subside!"
Wendy looked down and saw arge livid red bruise on her left arm. It must have been caused
when she grabbed the armrest to stabilize her body when she fell down. When she woke up, all she
thought about was the baby''s safety, so she did not notice the pain. After she had confirmed that
her baby was fine, she finally felt the pain.
Tilly helped her sit up and considerably put a pillow on her back. Then she pulled the chair to sit
next to her and said, "Wendy, I was scared to death when I knew that you fell down from the stairs!"
Wendy smiled understandingly because she was also greatly frightened.
The ident happened so fast that she could only protect her baby by instinct. She shook her hand
gently andforted her. "Fortunately, I''m fine now..."
"Right!" Tilly nodded and then scolded in a bad mood, "I don''t know how the clumsy maid could
identally bump into you! It was like-weird. Know what I mean? I suspect that she did it on
purpose! Luckily, you reacted fast enough; otherwise, you would have rolled down the stairs and
have lost your baby! It''s very scary only to think of it!"
"I believe that the maid didn''t mean to harm me." Wendy frowned and said.
She was as angry as Tilly, but the panic look on the maid''s face was real. Especially after seeing
her fall, her eyes were filled with tension and self-me-she seemed to want to p herself!
It was just that...
N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.
Wendy suddenly narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "However, I don''t know if there was someone
else who meant to harm me..."
"Wendy, what do you mean?" Tilly was stunned.
"At that time, in addition to that maid, Madge was also there!"
Tilly could not help but open her mouth in shock. "You mean..."
"I suspect it''s her!" Wendy pointed out bluntly.
When the incident happened, Madge was walking came over to her and the maid. Wendy looked
back when she fell down, so she knew that Madge was less likely to do any harm. After all, she was
some distance away behind the maid.
However, Wendy believed that the maid was innocent because her almost instantaneous panic
reaction could not be faked. The maid had got out of the way, so how could she suddenly hit her?
There was only one possibility, which was what Madge had done something secretly. Although
Wendy found no evidence, she was absolutely sure about that.
Hearing Wendy''s words, Tilly suddenly got into a rage and jumped up. "There''s no need to think
about it. It must be her-she was used to doing such hideous things! I''m a hundred percent sure that
she was behind the incident about the rat poison and made me the scapegoat. You know, because
of that, my grandfather is still very angry about me!" She stamped her feet in anger and continued,
"That pisses me off! How can I let her pay for what she has done!"
Wendy, pursing her lips in silence, suddenly said, "In fact... I have an idea."
"Say it!" Tilly was cheered up.
They whispered to each other for a long time. Then Wendy thought of something and asked
hesitantly, "Um, Tilly, are you sure you want to help me? Madge is your cousin, after all..."
"So what? You are my cousin and best friend!" Tilly said, excitedly raising her chin.
She did it for her friend, but mainly for herself! She wanted to pay for the injustice she had suffered.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for an eye! When Charlie came in after the phone call, he saw Wendy
sitting on the bed while Tilly was sitting on the chair next to her, chatting with their heads close
together. Upon hearing someonee in, they turned to look at him in unison.
Since he was here, Tilly did not stay any longer. She threw a few meaningful winks at Wendy and
left.
Only Charlie and Wendy were in the room, sitting together for a while. Then Charlie leaned over and
sat on the edge of her bed.
He carefully put his palm on her belly, caressing her through the clothes. Seeing that he felt the
movements of the baby attentively, Wendy felt even more guilty. "Charlie, I''m sorry for making you
worry!"
"Don''t be silly!" Charlie scolded her and then turned to touch her injured arm. "Does it hurt?"
Wendy shook her head.
She did not pretend to be brave. As long as her baby was safe, she did not care about these
bruises. She even felt that it did not matter even if she broke her arm at that time.
"I was nearly scared out of my wits. When I fell off the stairs, I felt my belly hurt like hell. The pain
nearly killed me! Fortunately, our child is fine, and it''s still in my belly, safe and sound. A tough
baby!" Wendy put his big hand on her belly again and swore, "Charlie, don''t worry. I''ll take good
care of our baby. I won''t let anything bad happen to it the second time!"
"Great." Charlie bent over and kissed her forehead.
Wendy looked down. After a moment of silence, she muttered to him, "So strong a baby it is, I
suppose it must be a boy. What do you think?"
Charlie''s frown grew deeper. He pursed his thin lips and said in a deep voice,"... No, it''s a
daughter!"
Wendy burst outughing. By mentioning this, she meant to make himugh and rx him a little.
He indeed felt much better now. Then he raised his hand and took her gently into his arms. While
touching her nose with his finger, he asked, "What were you plotting with Tilly?"
Wendy mysteriously crooked her finger at him.
When he leaned over, she whispered their n to him.
Charlie, his eyebrows gradually raising, said, "You and Tilly are going to turn her trick to your own
use and pretend that you''ve lost this baby so that she''ll think she has seeded, and then lure her
to fall into your trap!"
"Of course, we need your support!" Wendy nodded.
To make her believe that they lost the baby, his performance was the most critical.
"So sinister?" Charlie curled his lips.
Wendy blinked her eyes deliberately and said, "I have been learning from you."
Charlie lovingly touched her long hair with his palm. He narrowed his deep, piercing eyes and said,
"Just in time, it''s time to settle some debts!"
"Is that matter about that money settling into shape?" Wendy could not help raising her head and
asking.
Charlie nodded coldly. "Yes."
