Chapter 74: 74 Move Forward

Anna was frightened and tried to hide behind Joseph. She calmly said, "Joseph, it is obvious that my sister's miscarriage was an accident. Why is she blaming me? It was not my fault, Amy can testify to that!"

"Joseph, and Anna, you two put on an outstanding show," Kate said sternly, "Do you want to force me to divorce you? What if I won't agree? Are you going to kill me and then claim that I committed suicide?"

"My dear sister, Joseph, and I are not that bad. We..."

"Shut up!" Joseph interrupted, he grabbed her by the arm and scolded, "I have never seen someone as brazen as you!"

"Joseph..." Anna was scared to death; her face went pale.

Kate was also taken aback by Joseph's reaction. She couldn't understand what he was doing.

"Do you think I brought you to the hospital to see a doctor?" Joseph sneered coldly, "You know what you have done!"

Anna was so scared and pale; she looked as if she might pass out. She put her head down and shook it, "I haven't done anything. Don't listen to her nonsense!"

"You are hopeless!" Joseph took the phone out and played a recording.

Anna slumped to the ground when she heard her own voice. She couldn't believe what was happening. She never thought that Joseph would record her conversations.

"The evidence is right here. What do you have to say?" Joseph said, his cold eyes showed deep disgust.

Kate was even more stunned than she had been. She looked at Joseph's emotionless face, wondering: Didn't he come here to conceal Anna's crime, so why is he exposing her now?

"Joseph, I didn't hurt the child in my sister's belly on purpose. I was just defending myself. I saw her bleeding and called the ambulance at the first instance of danger. How could I know that the child would not be saved…?"

Kate crawled out of her bed and walked toward Anna. Joseph was worried about her stability and reached out to help her, but she pushed him away. Anna could see that Kate was furious and wanted to hurt her, but she was not going to look weak in front of Joseph.

Then in a panic, Anna said, "Sister, I really didn't want to hurt you, I…"

A loud slap interrupted Anna, then multiple more slaps followed. Kate was angry, and the impact was intense. Anna slumped more and more with each hit.

"I didn't do anything to hurt you, but you were always against me. Two years ago, you voluntarily offered to pick me up, but you got into an accident on the way. Ever since the moment you supposedly died, I was blamed for your death." Kate snarled at Anna. Then she turned to Joseph, "Now, you are trying to force me to get a divorce. You two have teamed up to persecute me. Do you really think that I am so weak that I will allow you to bully me?" Kate

"Kate, you need to get some rest. We will talk about everything when you have recovered, okay?"

"Stay away from me! You are disgusting!" Kate pushed him away.

Joseph stood in the middle of the room, feeling helpless.

Anna held a hand on her beaten face and cried. She couldn't believe what happened and that Joseph didn't protect her.

"Crawl to the door!" Joseph ordered Anna.

"Joseph..." Anna was stunned, staring at him with tears in her eyes, shaking her head, "I didn't hurt my sister's unborn child. It was an accident. If you don't believe me, you can ask Amy; she had witnessed everything."

"Do you think I will ever believe you and Amy again? You have done so many bad things, how can I trust you?" Joseph had no patience for her nonsense. He gritted his teeth and said, "Get out, or I will kick you out!"

Anna had never seen Joseph so angry before, she was scared and said, "I will leave, but don't be angry with me..."

Feeling not well at all, Kate closed her eyes. She was slightly relieved after hearing the conversation between Anna and Joseph. However, no matter how cruelly Joseph treated Anna, Kate would never feel grateful to him. She knew that he was pretending so that she wouldn't be as angry and let Anna get away with what she had done.

When Kate woke up again, the sun was shining in her room. She thought that Joseph had left after he kicked Anna out, but when she opened her eyes, Joseph was there. He rushed over to her bedside and asked, "Are you hungry? Mother brought you some soup…"

"Mr. Smith, there was a lady outside that fainted. She mumbled your name," A nurse hurried in to tell Joseph. He walked out to see Anna on the ground; he bent down to pick her up.

Kate was behind him and sneered at the scene. She thought it was a pity that they were not actors in a movie; they seemed to put on such a good show. Kate walked back to her room without saying a word.

Soon after Kate was back in bed, Cassie knocked on her door.

"Kate, how are you today?" Cassie said with a bright smile.

Cassie's kind smile and gentle tone made her bad mood much better.

"Mom, I am so sorry that I have been worried about me over the last few days."

"Silly girl, we are family. Come on; I have specifically asked the nutritionist to make this soup for you. Try it and see if you like it or not."

When Kate thought of Cassie's wish to have a grandchild, she was overwhelmed and sobbed, "Mom, do you know that I…?"

Seeing the tears rolling down Kate's face, Cassie put down the soup bowl and touched Kate's hand, "Kate, why are you crying? Did Joseph make you angry again? Just tell me, I'm always on your side!"

Mentioning Joseph just made Kate's heart tightened. He was her husband, but he was with Anna.

"I am talking about the miscarriage," Kate whispered, "I am so sorry, Mom. If it weren't for my carelessness, the baby would still be here…"

"You don't even know that you were pregnant?" Cassie assumed that she had known.

Kate Smith shook her head and smiled bitterly again, "Nobody knew, they couldn't even love the baby, maybe the accident is a good thing. Besides, I only got pregnant for my own reasons; it was a business transaction. It wouldn't have been fair to the baby. I would not have been a good mother, plus, this is a good reason for Joseph to leave me. I am thrilled."

"Kate, what are you talking about?" Cassie was terrified, holding her cold hand, "Don't be discouraged, you are so young, you'll have other children in the future, and this time... this time the miscarriage was an accident..."
