Chapter 75: 75 An Ulterior Motive

"You mean, it's wasn't an accident?" Cassie had only found out that Joseph wasn't home and didn't know exactly what happened. Considering Kate's situation, she didn't ask, but she was determined to find out the truth since Kate brought it up, "Kate, tell me exactly what happened. Like I said before, I will always stand by you!"

Kate was moved, then calmly told Cassie everything about the night she supposedly fell.

"Anna White! How dare she?!?" Cassie jumped up out of the chair and immediately called Joseph.

Cassie could hear a phone ringing from down the hall; she realized Joseph wasn't far away. She began to yell as she walked down the hall, "You son of a bitch! Why don't you come out?"

When Cassie found Joseph, she grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him to Kate's room. When they were at the door, she began to yell, "Did you know that your bitch caused Kate to miscarry your child?"

"I just recently found out," Joseph replied while his mother waited to see how he would stick up for Anna. He sighed and said, "When she wakes up, I'll…"

"You will what? Make her apologize to Kate? Easy for you to say. Kate's baby was also your baby, that vicious woman killed your baby. What do you see in her anyway?" Cassie had never scolded her son in public before. In her eyes, her perfect son was didn't worry about anything, but she worried about him every moment, especially when he was dating Anna.

"Calm down, Mom. I will handle this," After Joseph finished, he turned to Kate, who showed no emotion from her hospital bed, "Don't worry. I'll give you a reasonable explanation!"

It was also his baby, she was sad and so was he. How could he cover for Anna?

"Joseph, don't let me down!" Cassie was pissed off but didn't know what to say to her son.

Joseph knew that staying in Kate's room would only anger her more, so he asked his mother to take care of her and walked out, looking at the ground.

Cassie knew there wasn't much love between her son and Kate; she didn't want to force anything on either of them. When Joseph left, she immediately began to encourage Kate, "Cheer up. It is never too late to move on!"

"Yeah, there's a long way to go. I can't waste my whole life on a man who doesn't love me," Her sorrowful eyes suddenly shone with a bright light. It was as if at that moment, the clouds lifted, and the sun shone in, her mood improved.

The baby was gone, and the bond between them was completely over. She no longer had to have a baby to protect Cassie's feelings. Kate knew in all honesty that her marriage should have been over when her grandmother died, but it was she who couldn't let go.

"Kate, what do you mean by that?" Cassie frowned and felt uneasy.

"Kate, stop overthinking. Joseph was just into that crap, and after this ..."

"Mom, you pull him in here against his will, and I don't want to endure this suffering any longer. Just let it go for my sake, okay?" Kate would be influenced by Cassie every time she wanted to give up. But this time, there would be no fixing the problem, she was utterly devastated.

The sudden death of her grandma left a constant pain in her heart, and although she couldn't be sure that it was related to Joseph, she couldn't continue to live with him. She didn't love him like she once had, and he had never loved her.

Cassie knew that her continued persuasion was not proper since Kate had been hurt too much. She saw her son's attitude toward his wife had gotten worse, so she stopped trying to convince Kate things would get better.

At last, she apologized, "Kate, you are a good daughter-in-law. No matter what's happens with you and Joseph, I will always love you as my daughter."

"Thank you, Mom!" Kate smiled, having Cassie understand made her feel a lot better.

In another room, Dora shouted at a doctor, "How is my daughter?"

Anna woke up when she heard her mother's voice. She reached out to hug Dora, "Mom, I'm done! I was so screwed this time ..."

Dora rubbed her back and comforted her, "Don't cry, my dear. Tell me what's going on, and I will help."

"Joseph, he ..."

Joseph walked in just as Anna opened her mouth.

Dora saw her panic and followed her gaze, "Joseph?"

"You are awake?" Joseph showed no emotion.

Anna pulled her knees up to her chest and repeatedly cried, "I didn't hurt her! I didn't hurt her! I didn't…"

Sensing that Anna had done something, Dora tried to intervene, "Joseph, you don't think that Anna had something to do with Kate's miscarriage, do you?"

"The evidence is overwhelming; there isn't really much she can say," Joseph walked to the side of Anna's bed and questioned, "You also plotted Alan's sudden death, didn't you?"

Anna was frightened and pitifully looked at Joseph, "You bought Alan for me, he was important to me. Why would I want to kill him?"

"You're still lying!"

"Joseph, I didn't ..."

Anna was so flustered that she couldn't fight back. She heard a knock on the door, hoping it was the doctor, she yelled, "Come in."

Amy walked in; Anna was alarmed to see her, "What is she doing here?"

"Miss Anna, I could not lie any longer. I am sorry if what I say offends you," Amy nodded at Anna, and then confirmed, "Lord Joseph, it was indeed Miss Anna that caused Lady Kate to miscarry her baby. When I said I was going to call an ambulance, Miss Anna threatened me. She said that she would let Lady Kate and her baby die…"

"Bitch, you're lying!" Anna never expected Amy to betray her. "You were there. You were watching us then and ..."

"So, you admit it?" Joseph looked at her with a cold gaze.

Anna then realized that she had made a colossal mistake, she immediately denied everything, "I mean, Kate fell down the stairs, and this bitch wouldn't help her up. Joseph, don't believe what she is saying. She is just trying to cause trouble because she has an ulterior motive!"
