Chapter 42 – Suffocating Pain
Linda was completely frozen.
She only thought of scaring Cindy.
She didn’t think that she had actually handed her a soft spot by herself.
“I’m a person who will take revenge! In the beginning, you caused me to lose a child, so it’s not too much for me to return it now, right?”
Cindy spread a smile, the smile is poignant and beautiful, but the light of the eyes is harsh and unusual, “I am still happy to see Eric lose his heart and go crazy.”
“… you don’t do anything stupid, no matter what grudges you have between you, the baby in my belly is innocent!”
Cindy looked at her steadily and murmured, “Yes, the child is innocent.”
What about the baby she lost?
Did anyone ever care!
“No, don’t, don’t come any closer! Is there anyone, is there anyone out there!”
Linda was confused and shouted in panic.
She couldn’t stop backing up, and in a flash, she fell onto the toilet.
The whole thing sank in and the hem of her skirt was soaked through.
But Cindy was still moving forward, closing in on her, staring into Linda’s miserable white face.
“No!”
Linda’s screaming voice came out of the bathroom.
Noman, who had been standing at the door for a while, finally couldn’t resist and rushed right in, pulling Cindy away.
At the same time, the other guests heard the sound of the women’s restroom, saw Noman taking Cindy away, and heard the sound of crying coming from inside.
Several people peeked in to take a look.
Linda was sitting in the toilet in a terrible state, not knowing what had been splashed on her body, all smelly, and most importantly, she had a broom tied to her head that had just cleaned the toilet.
The appearance is wretched, like crawling out of the garbage pile.
The people are disgusted to look away, “At least is a lady, how to get like this, it’s really a shame.”
“That’s right, what is this smell …”
Linda shivered with anger, and couldn’t stop cursing between her red lips, “Cindy, you bitch, I won’t let you off!”
At this moment, Cindy was pulled by Noman to the back of the garden.
“Not hurt, right?”
Cindy shook her head sullenly and frowned, “You went in too early, give me a little more time then, I …”
Noman’s eyes sank, “Stop it.”
His brow revealed a few moments of heartache.
Cindy looked away and made no sound.
The next second, she was pulled into a not-so-warm embrace, and could clearly hear the other party’s powerful heartbeat.
“Don’t be a hero, I’d rather you just beat Linda until she miscarries, whatever the consequences are, I can carry them for you, but you have to admit, you can’t do it to the baby in her belly.”
“I’m sorry for the trouble.”
Cindy took a deep breath, “There are so many reporters at the scene, I’m afraid that the matter of your Mr. Jones entering the women’s bathroom will soon spread, and it will affect your reputation more or less.”
Noman’s knotted eyebrows relaxed.
“You!”
He wanted to say something else, but heard footsteps and looked behind him, and Gavin and the others were already following him out.
“Let’s go, you didn’t eat anything just now, I’ll take you out to eat something good.”
Cindy heard him say good food, hesitated for a moment and took a step to follow.
Half an hour later.
Linda sat in her room upstairs in the ballroom, and after changing her clothes, she was so angry that she slammed things in her room, and her agent Lily and her friend Angel didn’t dare to go in.
Lily was staring dead at her phone when she finally saw an incoming call.
She excitedly pressed the answer button, “Hello? Assistant Brown, yes, yes, I’ll go down to pick you up now.”
Angel watched Lily walk away and knocked on the door, “Okay, Eric is here to see you, so I’m going to go first. You get ready, I think he still cares more about you, that ex-wife of his is definitely out of the question.”
In the room, Linda, who was still cursing, looked around and stared at the vase fragments at her feet.
At the end of the corridor, Eric’s steps were hurried, his eyes extra chilly.
This time, the S-class project with the overseas partner did not go well, originally, he was going to work overnight at the company tonight.
But Linda kept calling, so he couldn’t concentrate on his work.
“Open the door.”
“Yes, Mr. Miller, Linda is inside.” Lily hurriedly opened the door, thinking to quickly let Eric coax the little madam inside.
Eric walked in with a cold face.
“Eric!”
Linda was wearing a halter dress and sitting aggressively on the carpet, her wrists and ankles were covered with blood marks.
“What’s wrong?”
Eric turned her wrist and looked at it; indeed, there was a cut, but it wasn’t serious.
But what was this smell on her?
“It’s Cindy, she found out I was here and came over to get me in trouble and … said that she wanted me to get rid of this baby or else she would kill me.”
The more Linda cried, the louder her voice became, and she jumped directly into Eric’s arms.
“It doesn’t matter what happens to me, but why should my child be cursed like this, Eric, what did I do wrong? Is it my fault for falling in love with you?”
Linda looked up, word for word, “Cindy did this to me, and said that she wanted me to take our baby and pay for the one she lost.”
It doesn’t matter at all whether Cindy said those words or not.
What mattered was that the story she made up made sense.
All the guests present had witnessed her being done that way in the bathroom, and as to whether there were any wounds on her body and what Cindy had actually done to her, only her testimony as the victim would suffice.
As the words fell, she witnessed Eric’s face change expression.
Linda wiped her tears, “How about I go beg her, beg her to let me go.”
Eric stared up, “Did she really say that?”
Linda’s heart thumped, could it be that her lie had been discovered?
She bit her fingertips and gave a low mumble.
Eric’s face was emotionally uncertain.
“Where is she?”
“Pulled away with that little white guy from the Jones’.” Linda added, “In terms of hooking up with men, who can compare to her?”
Eric gave a cold glance and she immediately shut her mouth.
