Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed as the icy rain lashed down on Eliza Doolittle, who was kneeling in the courtyard. The cold seeped into her very marrow, and the wound on her lower body had reopened, causing unbearable pain. Blood mixed with the rain, forming a pool of crimson water. She gritted her teeth and persevered.
Her hand instinctively rested on her flat stomach, where just days before, the child she cherished had been growing. Now, she had taken the childs life with her own hands, all to prevent him from becoming a pawn for others.
With her eyes tightly shut, tears of sorrow escaped, blurring the distinction between rain and tears. Why hadnt she just died with her child...
After losing her child, Edward Cullen had resorted to every means of torture to make her suffer, as he had promised to make her life a living hell!
Eliza had been kneeling in the yard for a full day, while the man was inside the villa enjoying familial bliss with Scarlett OHara.
Weak from hunger and cold, Eliza felt her eyelids growing heavier, her face turning a purplish hue from the cold. Suddenly, a pair of high heels appeared before her. She strained to open her eyes and looked up to see Scarlett standing there with an umbrella, a smug smile on her delicate face.
“How does it feel?” Scarlett asked,蹲 down beside Eliza and whispering into her ear.
Eliza remained silent, both because her body was utterly exhausted and the pain in her lower body was unbearable, and because she felt there was nothing to say to her.
This calm Eliza enraged Scarlett, whose eyes flashed with anger. She slapped Eliza across the face and grabbed her hair, forcing her to look into her eyes.
“It hurts, doesnt it? Who told you to covet whats not yours? Just like Isabella, you both are so cheap, thinking you could become Mrs. Cullen. Isabella couldnt defeat me, let alone you.” Scarletts face contorted with jealousy.
“Scarlett, it seems youve gone mad. You insult your own sister.” The pain on her face was hot and burning, and the pain in her scalp was explosive. Eliza could only keep herself conscious by digging her fingernails into her palm. Intuitively, she felt that Isabellas death was connected to Scarlett.
“Who let her aspire to marry Edward and bear his child? Only I am the perfect match for Edward. You are not worthy, so you both have to die!” Scarlett spoke fiercely, her entire person radiating a fierce aura.
“Die? It was you! You killed Isabella!” Elizas voice trembled with disbelief and fear. She never thought that it would be Scarlett who killed Isabella, the person who used to be shy and timid.
“Yes, I didnt want to kill her at first, but she was pregnant with Edwards child!” Scarlett let go of Eliza, stood up, and slowly straightened her clothes that were wrinkled from the scuffle.
“You will not die a good death. You killed and framed me, and I will definitely expose you!” Eliza shouted hysterically, her whole body trembling with anger.
Because of Scarletts framing, she had been living in pain every day. She thought that having a child would make Edward treat her better, but she found out that getting pregnant was just part of their conspiracy.
Unfortunately, the sound of the thunder was too loud, and nothing could be heard inside the villa.
“Who told you to peep at whats not yours? You can go and tell Edward, but do you think he will believe you? Haha...” Scarlett laughed, her face blooming like a flower, and she walked away gracefully.
Eliza felt the world spinning around her. Lying in the heavy rain, she couldnt help but mock herself. Perhaps it would be better to just die like this, so she could be with her child forever.
