Chapter 223
Standing Before Love
âWhat do you mean by âagainâ?â When Myra, who was being held in Tonyâs embrace, heard Krisâ
accusation, her face immediately turned colder. âYou and Rachel were the ones who ganged up on me and wanted to push the blame on me! This is not your first time doing this, after all. But this time around, everyone else clearly saw that you were the one who landed on your mother. How could you blame me for this? Do you really think that Iâm someone you can trample on, Kris?â
âNonsense!â Krisâ eyes became red. âYouâre the one who is responsible for this! If you didnât push me, how could I have landed on Mom? You are such an evil woman! Itâs all your fault and I bet Dad will never let you off the hook!â
With that, Kris shifted her gaze to Tony, who was holding Myra. Tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her face immediately. âTony, I was just planning to serve you coffee just now, yet Myra is so angry at me that she pushed me to hurt my mom and little brother. I believe that you have seen her true character today. Perhaps you didnât know that she chased Lyla away just to be with Sean back then and she even harmed Lylaâs baby! On top of that, she was also responsible for my momâs miscarriage back then! If she didnât push her deliberately, she would not have undergone a miscarriage that would make her unable to conceive a child later on. Finally, when my mom managed to get pregnant after so many years, Myra still didnât want to let my mom go! Donât be fooled by her!â Kris sobbed.
Upon hearing this, Myra was so furious that she almost laughed out loud.
About the incident involving Lyla back then, Myra did not chase Lyla away and she had never injured the latterâs baby.
Apart from that, when Rachel was pregnant before, she herself was the one who led everyone to think that she suffered a miscarriage because Myra pushed her down the stairs.
Myra clenched her fists tightly and she suddenly felt that she was being hugged tighter. The warmth from Tony slowly reached her body.
There was no change in Tonyâs expression as he continued to look at the deranged woman in front of him coldly. In an indifferent tone, he commented, âMiss Kris, if you really care about your mother, you wouldnât ignore her injuries and accuse another innocent person so quickly. Is it because youâre sure that the baby wonât make it now, or did you know from the very beginning that it wouldnât be able to make it?â With a thoughtful expression on his face, Tonyâs eyes narrowed.
Krisâ expression changed immediately and she looked at him angrily. âWhat are you implying? That Iâm wrong for calling Myra out here? Dad will send Mom to the hospital but I definitely wonât forgive the person who harmed her!â
âDo you have any evidence then, Miss Kris?â Tonyâs eyes became colder.
âIâm the evidence! If Myra didnât push me just now, I wouldnât have landed on Mom and Iââ
âIf I remember correctly, you told your father that Myra pushed your mother just now. After he left, why did the story change to Myra pushing you? This means that in such a short time, she pushed you and your mother before she jumped down the stairs. Do you think she has enough time to accomplish all of this?â
Tonyâs expression held traces of mockery and indifference as he stared at Kris.
Krisâ body suddenly gave a jolt. Clenching her fists tightly, she rebuked, âI meant that Myra pushed me, which made me fall onto my mom. This is equivalent to her pushing my mom! No matter what, she just canât stand seeing us having a good life and she wants to injure my momâs baby, as well as my mom!â
Myra merely looked coldly at Kris, who was trying to change the topic.
Kris was also quite a fool who could not hide the expression on her face. When Tony deliberately questioned that they were not planning to keep the baby from the very beginning, she immediately blanched.
This made Myra think more into this incident.
Since Rachel is already pregnant with a boy, she definitely has an advantage here, seeing how much Cameron wants a male descendant to inherit his business. Rachel could obviously use this to her advantage to control the Stark Family, and it will bring a lot of advantages to her. Sheâs already in her forties, so why did she arrange for a miscarriage to slander me, seeing that it will put her in a dangerous situation?
Unless itâs really like what Tony has just mentionedâthey could not keep the baby from the very beginning!
This means that⦠even though Rachel is pregnant, she knew that the baby would not make it. So, she invited me to the Stark Residence and tried to mend the relationship with me so that she could frame me?
Myraâs gaze turned even colder. She suddenly lifted her head to look at Tonyâs narrowed eyes. âTony, I remembered the closest hospital here is the City Three Hospital and I believe their gynaecology department is quite well-known.â
âYes. Philip has a few friends working there. If you would like to help Mrs. Stark, I can contact them for you.â
It was only when Tony looked at Myra that he seemed slightly warmer. However, when he mentioned âMrs. Starkâ just now, Kris had a feeling that his real intention was not to help Rachel.
âWhat do you want?â Kris panicked immediately.
In their plans for today, they did not arrange for Rachel to actually suffer a miscarriage, so they did not plan for her to visit the hospital.
Mom canât afford to go to the hospital, much less be treated by other gynaecologists!
Just like what Tony suspected, Rachel was bound to lose her baby from the beginning. If Dad knows about thisâ¦
After all, they had already secretly arranged for Rachelâs gynaecologist to be well prepared to come over to the Stark Residence at any time, because Rachel only trusted her.
But everything is in a mess nowâ¦
Krisâ expression changed immediately and she ignored both of them. Without a second thought, she ran outside.
Seeing her flustered figure, Tony narrowed his eyes slightly as he carried Myra and walked outside.
Kris got into Cameronâs car so that she could take care of Rachel, while Tony brought Myra to his car immediately.
Both cars quickly drove to the nearest hospital from the Stark Residence.
Just as Myra expected, Cameron immediately drove to the nearest hospitalâthe City Three Hospital.
While they were on their way there, they had already contacted the hospital. Both cars arrived at the hospital at the same time and instantly, a group of doctors and nurses rushed over.
However, Kris did not follow the stretcher.
When she was in the car just now, she wanted Cameron to send Rachel to the hospital her mother had frequented for her regular checkups, but he merely shot her a cold stare.
Cameronâs stare was cold and sharp, as if he could see through their act. Kris did not dare to utter another word at that moment and focused on taking care of Rachel, who had already passed out due to the pain.
Now, she was calling the other doctor frantically on the phone.
âDoctor Owen, where are you? Quickâcome to City Three Hospital now! If you are not here, both my mom and I are doomed!â
After hearing the reply from the other end of the line, Kris flared up immediately. âDonât forget about all the benefits we have given you, Doctor Owen. If you would like to back down now, youâll have to bear the consequences of this when the matter comes to light. When that time comes, I bet you canât stay on at the hospital anymore! Not just that hospital, you wonât even be able to get a job in Bradfort City! I shall give you five more minutes. If you donât come over soon, donât blame me for actually doing so!â
