I cried, and couldn’t stop.
The door opened and Jake was angry.
He went to my bed.
<
“Why kill Ashley’s baby!”
My lips were pale.
“I didn’t! She pushed me! And she’s not pregnant! Ask the doctor!”
He got angrier.
He choked me.
“You’re disgusting!”
He dragged me off the bed.
“Uncle! What are you doing! Let her go!”
く
Chloe tried to stop him, but Jake pushed her
away.
“Uncle! Bethany didn’t do it! She forgot who
she was, and you know, she just…
Η
“Shut up!” Jake shouted. “Traitor! Who’s side
are you on!”
“She hurt your niece! I’ll tell your brother to
throw you in Africa!” Jake shouted, and
dragged me into the next room and threw me
down.
I fell, and cried.
Ashley was on the bed.
<
“Bethany, I know you’re jealous, but it was his
baby, how could you?”
“The doctor said it was a girl!”
She cried.
Jake held her. “We’ll have another one. Don’t
be sad.”
I was pinned to the ground, and cried, “She’s
faking it! Ask the doctor!”
Jake glared. “You think I’ll believe you over
Ashley?”
“You won’t change!” He said angrily.
<
“Bethany, if you want me to marry you, kneel
at the grave for a day, to atone for my baby. Or, let Ashley be Mrs. Jake.”
I felt dead, and helpless.
I gritted my teeth.
