Cedric took me to the hospital.
My in-laws, afraid I would run, sent pictures of the house to the real estate agent and then rushed over to the hospital as well.
The female doctor saw my tear-streaked face and asked with concern, "What happened to you?"
I glanced at Cedric fearfully, and then shook my head, replying, "Nothing. I just have some bellyache."
The doctor thought for a moment before saying, "Family members, please wait outside for a moment. Let me take her inside for an exam."
She then got up and led me into a small side room.
Once my husband and his family were outside, I showed her the bruises on my arms where my in-laws had pinched me.
They hadn't held back. The bruises were dark and covered large patches of my arms.
"What happened to you?"
The doctor's eyes widened in shock and disbelief, far more than my shameless husband had ever shown me.
I choked back tears and whispered, "Doctor, please call the police for me. If I go back with them, they'll beat me to death."
As I spoke, I lifted my bangs, revealing a large bump on my forehead, which was caused by Reese, that brute.
Outraged, the doctor immediately picked up her phone and called the police.
In less than five minutes, the police arrived. About seven or eight officers showed up and immediately took control of Cedric and the others.
Reese, with his face pressed to the ground, pleaded, "Sir, just because I owe some loan sharks doesn't mean I should be arrested, right?"
My in-laws were wailing even louder, "You are just arresting people randomly! We didn't break the law!"
Lizeth was the most outrageous. She put on a full display of her street fighting tactics, rolling around on the ground.
"There's no justice! The police are arresting people for no reason! The world's falling apart! I'll take this to court! I'll demand justice!"
Cedric, trembling, didn't even get the chance to say anything.
I walked out of the room, tears streaming down my face, and pointed at my in-laws. "Sir, it was them who hit me! I'll sue them all!"
I rolled up my sleeves and lifted my bangs again, revealing my injuries to everyone.
By now, a crowd of onlookers had gathered outside, drawn by the spectacle. Among them were even a few pregnant women there for their checkups.
When they saw my bruises, they were full of sympathy and soon started cursing and condemning the Flynn family.
"Shameless! Hitting a pregnant woman? Are they even human?"
"They're worse than animals! This woman is carrying a child, and they even beat her!"
"Domestic violence against a pregnant woman? They should rot in prison for that."
The shouts and curses grew louder and louder. Even though Kaylee and Lizeth kept trying to argue, the crowd's voice drowned them out.
Seeing the situation get more chaotic, the police took the Flynn family straight to the police station.
