The next second, Noah pushed me to the ground as he roared at me, "Nadine, what do you want to do to Eric? Do you want to harm your sister's child because your own child died, are you still human?"
I fell to the ground. My palms rubbed against the ground and broke. It was excruciatingly painful. Yet, Noah didn't even look at me. He and Airish hugged the crying child on the left and right, like a real family of three.
My parents looked at me angrily, protecting their child without knowing right from wrong, "Nadine, you’re such a monster. This is why we love Airish than you. Look at you, how can you compare to Airish? You’re helpless. You are so mean and dark. You don't even let such a young child go, you beast!"
"Why are you still lying on the ground? Get out quickly, don't get in our way, you really ruined my good mood."
The elders of the Riders Family who just arrived asked about the situation and their eyes were full of disappointment in me.
"We don't blame you for accidentally miscarrying the child and we, the Riders Family, have never thought of letting you two divorces even if you can't have a baby, but why do you have to do it to a little baby?"
"Airish's child is one of the the Riders Family's genealogy. Whether you agree or not, it can't change the facts. Go back and reflect on it."
At this moment, I had nothing to say, but after all, considering the child's innocent life, I whispered, "It's easy for a young child to suffocate if he wears a red rope."
Airish opened the child's neck and found that it was all red. Her face was immediately ashamed. Meanwhile, Noah told me not to mind, "Airish is just worried about the child, not targeting you on purpose."
My mother said impatiently, "Why don't you say it earlier if you knew it? Are you deliberately playing misery? Besides, if you were not unlucky enough to kill the child, would your sister sacrifice for you and let you raise the child? You should thank her anyway!"
Everyone stood on Airish's side and attacked me for her. My eyes were blurred by tears. I went upstairs without saying a word and threw the printed divorce agreement into the shredder. No divorce.
They didn't love me or believe me. I would completely disappear from their lives. I didn't want them anymore. I sat in the guest room for a long time, listening to the laughter and joy below and gradually fell asleep.
When I woke up again, the villa was quiet. I had a severe stomach ache and went downstairs to find something to eat. The servant said disdainfully that there was no food. If I wanted to eat, I could make it myself. The ingredients were in the basement.
However, I saw Airish sitting on Noah's head with her legs apart.
She sounded whiningly and said, "Noah, if my sister finds out, she will be sad. Um... It's so uncomfortable, Noah..."
Noah hooked his lips evilly, "Airish, you obviously like me, why do you always reject me? Don't worry, she won't know. I did promise you that I won't tie you down with marriage, but you have to satisfy me."
Airish hugged Noah's head with both hands and pushed her waist forward. "Noah, this is for the last time, okay? After that, I will go abroad and won't disturb you and my sister. We will be the purest childhood sweethearts."
Noah stopped talking. The unbearable voice drilled into my ears with the wind, making me sick and unable to stand. I staggered out of here. Until I was far away from that suffocating place, I barely came back to my soul. My tears fell on the ground.
I sat on the curb in confusion and the next second, Airish's soft and uneasy voice sounded. "Sister, I'm sorry for what happened today."
"What is it about?"
I looked at her guilty eyes. "It's just... I misunderstood that you wanted to hurt Eric. This is my first time as a mother and I overreacted to the safety of my baby. I didn’t mean to against you."
"Besides, I promised Noah to give the baby to you. There will definitely be no impact on your relationship in the future. Eric will be your biological child in the future."
Airish's eyes were red when she said that. She choked up and continued, "Don't worry, sister. I will go abroad after Eric's full moon banquet and I will never come back from now on. You will take care of our parents, Eric and Noah."
It seemed to be a full of affection. However, having to give in overlaps with the time she went abroad that year, I couldn't stop feeling uncomfortable in my heart. How could she be so innocent and nonchalant to snatch the love of my parents, Noah and it seemed so sincere?!
I grabbed Airish's collar, but before I could say the question, I was kicked away fiercely. The stones on the ground pierced my wounds, adding new wounds to old ones. The pain made my eyes go black.
Airish screamed. She wanted to help me, but she was held in Noah's arms. Noah shouted at me, "Nadine, come to me if you have anything to say!"
"Noah is not like what you think. Nadine didn't..." Airish tried to explain to him softly but she was cut off. Instead, Noah was getting angrier.
"I saw it all, why are you covering up for her? Since the day she came back, she has never had good intentions towards you."
Noah looked at me with a gloomy face, "You killed your child and you dare to target Airish? Nadine, you’re really shameless!"
What did he say? I was stubborn? I killed my own child?
Tearing open the clothes at the uterus, I angrily questioned and yelled, "You dare to say that I killed my own child? Then answer me! How could I eat the food you cooked for me and got a heavy bleeding? Tell me, how did my child die? Why can't I get pregnant again?!"
Noah said without any guilt, "What do you mean? You slander me because I cooked for you and it went wrong? Who knows what you ate before? In fact, you had your uterus removed because you are useless and you still have the nerve to question me?”
Noah sighed hardly being frustrated. “C’mon Nadine, you almost became a mother. How can you bear to hurt another mother who wants to raise your child? You have to apologize to Airish!"
I was laughing so hard that I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. He looked such a convincing, that my child was accidentally died and I should have been grateful to be alive! Haha! Did I really look disgraceful?!
"No, thank you." I suddenly bowed and turned away.
Noah panicked, thinking he was going to lose something. After all, he only shook his head. He was just angry. When Airish left, he most likely would coax her to forgive me.
A few days later, it was my birthday and so was Airish. However, Noah spent a lot of money to celebrate Airish’s. Drones and fireworks were set off all night and they were becoming hot topics of the entire country. The Clark Family also booked the Ritz Palace for Airish, playing birthday wishes in turn.
On the other hand, I cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for myself and packed up all the things to be distributed to the homeless people around.
The next day, they seemed to remember that they missed my birthday. My brother sent me a cake guiltily. Meanwhile, Noah asked his secretary to send me a necklace as a gift.
I squatted by the trash can and burned all the wedding photos as well as my marriage certificates bit by bit. The ashes were scattered with the wind.
On the morning of the third day, Noah called me. "Nadine, I forgive you for what happened in the past. Dress nicely for the full moon banquet today. I'll ask my secretary to pick you up at noon."
I agreed with a smile, as if I really had no grudges. After hanging up the phone, I changed into the classic gown I could only find and went straight to the hotel. The auspicious time for the full moon banquet had passed, but I didn't show up.
Noah's face was not so good. He thought that I was still angry with him and I was getting more and more ignorant. He couldn’t ignore the uneasiness in his heart. He coldly ordered someone to go downstairs to find me.
My parents also blackened their faces when they heard the news. "It's outrageous! In my opinion, it would be nicer if Airish is the one who married into the Riders Family."
Noah's mother frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything. All of a sudden, someone ran in in a panic, "Oh no, Mr. Riders, your wife jumped off the building!"
