Love Me Or Leave Me

CHAPTER 10

At the same time, Janet lost her balance and was about to fall.

In that instant, everyone except Rebecca and Debra panicked.

Gary and Karen hurried to catch her.

Sam and Melissa also stood up in a rush, ready to take care of Janet. After all, she was pregnant with Theodore’s child!

“It hurts…” Janet cried out in pain, caught by Gary before she could hit the ground. But as she lay in his arms, she let out a pained cry.

Janet clutched her stomach, her face pale. “Dad, Mom,” she gasped, “my stomach hurts so bad. Is the baby okay? Call the doctor, now… Call an ambulance!”

Karen finally snapped back to her senses, her hands trembling as she hurriedly dialed 911 for an ambulance.

The call went out, and everyone had to wait at home for the ambulance to arrive.

Suddenly, Karen turned her head and with a fierce expression, raised her hand, ready to strike Rebecca.

Debra was faster. She yanked Rebecca behind her to protect her from the slap, and then raised her own hand.

Another loud slap sounded, it was Debra giving Karen a hard slap!

This slap made everyone turn their heads, looking at Debra and then at Rebecca in shock.

How dare they?

With Janet about to miscarry, how could they still dare to fight?

Karen was also taken aback. She couldn’t believe that her hand had missed its target. For over twenty years, she had slapped that wretched girl countless times, and Rebecca had never dared to dodge.

If Rebecca had ever tried to avoid it, Karen would have punished her even more severely. She would leave her without food for at least three days and lock her in the room to starve and tremble with fear. But now, Rebecca had actually dodged?

On top of that, she let this stranger hit her instead?

It took Karen a moment to realize what had happened. She lunged at Rebecca, determined to teach that wretched girl a lesson she’d never forget.

Debra became even angrier as she watched Karen rush at her daughter. She lifted her leg and gave Karen a hard

kick.

Luckily, she had practiced some combat skills before, so handling this loser was no problem at all!

But the thought of her daughter being abducted and trapped in that scumbag’s house for years made her blood boil. She wanted to destroy every last piece of garbage that had ever bullied her daughter!

Karen was kicked so hard she flew across the room and landed face–first on the floor. Let that bitch eat some dirt!

The living room fell silent. Everyone watched in shock, too stunned to speak.

Sam and Melissa were deeply shocked. They looked at Debra, then Rebecca, and back to Debra again.

They wondered who was this friend Rebecca had brought along.

This was no ordinary friend. She had to be a bodyguard, right?

Maybe Rebecca feared she might be bullied after giving birth alone and hired a personal bodyguard?

At that moment, Sam and Melissa felt they had figured it out. Debra wasn’t just a friend… She was a bodyguard

Rebecca had hired!

And not just any bodyguard. Debra was the whole package who would roast and fight for her. Anyone who tried to bully Rebecca would not only get an earful but also a good beating!

They were fascinated as they looked at Debra. Times had changed so quickly, and they knew young people had all sorts of tricks up their sleeves, but they hadn’t expected a service like this. It was…quite interesting.

They wondered where Rebecca had found such a bodyguard. Maybe they could hire one too in the future?

After all, it was kind of impressive to have a skillful talker and a badass fighter around!

The ambulance arrived quickly and whisked Janet away.

Debra was still worried that Janet would come back and make trouble for Rebecca if anything happened. She immediately called Paul, asking him to keep an eye on Janet at the hospital.

Sam and Melissa also left. They even called Theodore and told him to go to the hospital immediately. Janet was in trouble, and the baby… Well, it might be coming!

Everyone left, leaving only Rebecca, Debra, the nanny, and the other household staff in the villa.

The twins had been out in the sun for a long time. Debra walked over and asked the nanny to bring the babies back

inside.

Inside the room, Debra looked at the kids and asked, “Becky, do they have a name?”

Rebecca looked at the babies and shook her head.

Debra thought for a moment and suggested. “How about we hold off on the children’s official birth registration for now? You and Theodore are splitting up, so once the divorce is final, we can put them under the Carter name. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Sound good?”

Rebecca was caught off guard for a moment but then realized it was a good idea. “Yeah, okay,” she agreed.

Debra beamed, happy with the solution. Registering the children’s official birth under the Carter family’s name would mean adding two adorable little ones to the family.

It dawned on Debra that no one had even given the babies presents yet!

Then, she remembered Paul had told everyone at the hospital to prepare a gift and chuckled, “Hey, maybe we should pick a nickname for the babies
