Chapter 7
Zayn's chest tightened. Seeing the bruises on Skyler's face, he recalled Willow's vicious act of colliding Into Skyler's car. In an instant, his heart turned cold again.
"What, were you expecting the bastard in your stomach to live after you killed the child had with Skyler? in your dreams, Willow!" he sneered.
Willow completely broke down. "She's not an illegitimate child! Zayn, that's our daughter! She's your flesh and blood!" she sobbed.
"You're a vile woman, Willow. You've hurt skyler countless times. There's no way I'll allow the child in your stomach to live even if it was my own flesh and blood! "The child you conceive is too dirty to be considered my own," he replied.
Willow's heart shattered into a thousand pieces, all of a sudden, she no longer had the strength to continue questioning him.
No wonder he was so resolute in killing their child. It was because he found it dirty!
"It hurts, Zayn.." skyler touched her small face pitifully. "I wanted to see Lolo after I heard she fainted. I never thought that..." she trailed off.
"I won't allow you to be bullied for nothing, Skyler!" The tender look on Zayn's face when he looked at Skyler was so gentle that it wrenched Willow's heart.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
There was only a chilling coldness left when be gazed at Willow.
"Kneel, Willow!" he ordered.
"What?" Willow exclaimed out loud. She never thought that Zayn would make her kneel.
"1 said, kneel! Apologize to Skyler!" Zayn demanded.
"I won't kneel!" Willow stubbornly refused. "I didn't do anything wrong, so why do I need to kneel down to her?"
"I'm fine, Zayn. Lolo's just a little upset after losing her child. That's why she's taking it out on me. I'm okay, I'm really okay," skyler spoke up thoughtfully.
"Zayn, please don't get angry at Lolo. The wounds on my body don't hurt at all." she continued
"Kneel, Willow!" Zayn threatened coldly. "Otherwise, I'll make that bastard leave the hospital immediately!"
Willow knew that Zayn wasn't saying it for show. With his influence, none of the hospitals in Havenpoint would take Aaron in if he interfered deliberately.
He was threatening her with Aaron's life so she would kneel and begin front of Skyler.
Willow was unwilling to please Skyler. However, she recalled the sweet smile on Aaron's pale face even when he was suffering. He had always comforted her, telling her that he wasn't in pain.
In the end, Willow bent her knees. She knelt down in front of Skyler.
Zayn stiffened. The expression on his cold face became even darker.
He didn't expect her to actually kneel down That's right. She had always been shameless when it came to that bastard!
Skyler almost couldn't hold in the smile tugging at the comers of her lips. She pinched herself forcefully before speaking up weakly. "Don't make things difficult for Lolo, Zayn. She already knows she's in the wrong. She'll take good care of me."
Zayn withdrew his gaze from Willow coldly, "You're right. She's always loved to act cheap. It just so happens that she can slave off for you. That way, we can save the money needed to hire a caregiver," he said.
With that, Willow really became skyler's personal caregiver.
Dragging her painful body, Willow went to the kitchen to cook a large pot of beef stew after Skyler demanded stew.
Willow would rather serve a dog than Skyler. However, Zayn had her Achilles' heel. So, she could only bite her teeth and endure it.
Skyler didn't drink the stew when it was placed on the dining table, m Picking up the large bowl of stew, she poured it over the back of her hand instead.
After that, Skyler began to yell hysterically toward the ward's entrance. "Save me, Zayn! Lolo's about to scald to death!
came Willow was rendered speechless by Skyler's act of s self-abuse. By the time she came back to her senses, she realized that Skyler had framed her again. Zayn would never spare her!
There was no way things would take a turn for the better for Willow later. If hat's the case, she might as well play the villain until the very end!
"Don't you always like playing the victim, Skyler? Well, this time, I'll let you have your fill of acting!" Willow sneered.
All of a sudden, Willow beldig the pot that still had more than half of the remaining stew, Using all her strength, she poured it mercilessly on Skyler
