To Nicole, those words were like the sound of nails scratching metal. It was obvious that Susan said all of that on purpose.
However, she was too lazy to give Susan the time of day.
She was just about to bring her children away when Nina, who was still in her arms, snorted derisively. She shot Susan a disdainful look and said, “Daddy wants you to give birth to a litter of piglets because he thinks you look like a pig. But maybe you won’t even be able to give birth to that many, because you’re worse than a pig! Even animals are better than you!”
Susan was dumbfounded and began to see Nina in a different light. She was more than shocked that this little girl was capable of saying such things.
She felt aggrieved to be given such treatment and retorted unhappily, “I saved you in Rose Garden once. How can you speak to me this way?”
“Saved me? Did you? It was obviously Daddy who jumped down to save me. You can’t even swim and you knew that jumping in would only make things worse. I think you were just acting in front of Daddy.”
Susan’s blood boiled with anger, but she tried her best to suppress it. She looked at Nicole with tearful eyes. “Ms. Lane, is this your way of parenting?”
Juan released a cold snort at that. “My sister is right. I saw a cobblestone at the spot my sister fell into. It wasn’t there when we played there last time, but when you showed up, it did too. You weren’t the one who threw it, were you?”
“Absurd! This isn’t a small matter. You can’t go around throwing groundless accusations! Ms. Lane, you can’t teach your kids to say such things, otherwise you’ll ruin them.”
Nicole was at a loss for words.
So now, I’m the one who taught them to say such things?
Just like that, she pinned the blame on me. This woman really isn’t simple.
Seeing the way Susan was fuming, Nicole recalled the details of that day when Nina fell into the water. She suddenly felt that Susan’s reaction was indeed overly pretentious. What Juan said was logical too.
She smiled blandly in response. “Well, if what happened had nothing to do with you, there’s nothing for you to be nervous or angry about, is there?”
“Of course not…” Just as she was about to rebuke, she spotted Evan walking towards them from a distance. Her expression instantly morphed into an indignant and pitiful one.
“I didn’t do anything, Ms. Lane. Why are you accusing me of something I didn’t do? If you really want to do this to me, I can only prove my innocence with death.”
With that, she sniffled and walked right into a stone pillar not far away.
Evan, who was standing next to the stone pillar, quickly grabbed her before she slammed into the pillar.
He looked at her in puzzlement. “What are you doing?”
She leaned against Evan with an aggrieved look on her face. Afraid that he would push her away, she deliberately held onto Evan’s clothes with both hands and wailed.
“Evan, Ms. Lane said that I had ulterior motives for saving Nina at Rose Garden the other day. She even said that I intentionally caused Nina to fall into the water. A-And, she also said some other hurtful things. Is she trying to push me towards death by accusing me like this? I don’t wanna live. I don’t wanna live anymore!”
Nicole said this?
Does she have proof?
Evan glanced at Nicole who wasn’t too far away as a frown appeared between his brows.
This farce caught the attention of many people in the hospital and they stopped to watch the drama unfold.
“What’s going on?”
“I don’t know! I think that’s the president of Seet Group, Mr. Seet. The woman with the kids is Mr. Seet’s ex who appeared on the trending searches just a few days back. As for the woman who’s crying, I think she’s his wife whom he had a wedding with before.”
“Is the ex blaming the current wife for taking over her place, which led to this current scenario?”
“Look at Ms. Lane. She’s completely unfazed even after bullying Mr. Seet’s current wife to this point.”
“I know, right? She almost forced the poor woman to slam into a wall. Ms. Lane truly is a cold-hearted woman.”
“What are you talking about? If that were truly the case, would that woman bawling over there be able to take her place? From what I can see, that depressive-looking woman is no pushover either.”
“Well, we’ll never understand the private lives of other people. And you know what I think? I think both women aren’t pushovers.”
The last thing Nicole wanted was for her children to be subjected to the whispers of gossip circulating the hospital. All she wanted was to take them away as soon as possible.
