Chapter 100
As soon as the news spread, Tabitha realized Naomi’s plan. She had not expected Naomi to risk her child’s safety to set her up.
She was not concerned about Naomi at all. Instead, she did not want to be framed by a madwoman, so she followed Naomi to see what was going on.
When Naomi heard Tabitha’s voice, she immediately went mad and
rushed to her regardless of everything.
“Tabitha, you wicked woman! It was you who killed my child. I’ll kill you!” Naomi yelled.
Tabitha frowned slightly and stepped back.
Malcolm quickly reached out to grab Naomi’s wrist, exerting more strength to force her back into bed.
“We haven’t figured it out yet. Calm down,” Malcolm reminded.
“Isn’t that clear enough? Tabitha was the only one there. Who else could it be other than her?” Naomi cried out.
Naomi shed tears heavily, pointed at Tabitha, and scolded, “I know I’ve done something wrong. I snatched your man, and I deserve your hatred. It’s all my fault, but why did you lay a hand on my child?”
Tabitha felt annoyed and retorted icily, “You should know very well why your child is gone. If you want to wrong me, show me,the proof. To gain the title you desire, I thought you hurting others was your limit, but I didn’t expect you to use your unborn child as well. You’re a mother, too. What’s wrong with your conscience? I feel pity for the baby for his mother’s sins that have deprived him of the right to see the world. Aren’t you afraid he’ll come to you for revenge when you sleep in the middle of the night?”

Tabitha’s voice was sharp yet chilly, and her eyes were full of disgust.
Naomi’s greed had killed that innocent kid.
A trace of fear flashed across Naomi’s eyes. She covered her stomach, feeling a little guilty. However, she maintained an assertive demeanor and insisted, “It’s true that you killed my child. Tabitha, I want you to pay with your life!”
Her tone was far less sharp than it had been, and although she refused to admit it, Tabitha’s words still deeply lingered in her mind.
Naomi mused, ‘Dream? This child shouldn’t be here in the first place. If you want to avenge, go to Tabitha instead of me!”
Tabitha did not want to see Naomi’s wicked, hideous face again. She got so emotional that she felt a piercing pain in her belly. She quickly turned to leave, walking to her ward. She recalled Naomi’s blood spread on the floor, making her feel more frightened.
It made her realize that the baby was so fragile that it could be gone in an instant.
Just as Tabitha was lying in her hospital bed, two plainclothes police officers suddenly came in and requested her to honestly answer their questions after showing her their identities.
“Ms. Naomi Boyle reported to us, wanting to charge you with intentional. murder, saying that you deliberately switched off the escalator when she got on to the escalator, causing Ms. Boyle to fall down the escalator,” one of the police officers stated.
Tabitha did not panic even though she was falsely framed. She explained. calmly, “After I finished talking with her, I stood still without making at single move, let alone touching the switch.”
Tabitha was calm and did not look like she was lying. However, there was

no way to prove her credibility as she happened to be in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras.
The police officers asked a few more questions and finally said, “Ms. Jarvis, since you are now a suspect, please don’t wander around until the matter is investigated. Try to stay in the hospital and be summoned at any time.”
After the police officers left, the room became empty, leaving Tabitha alone, but she could only feel the irony.
She thought, ‘Naomi is the real murderer, and she’s still at large. Yet, I turn out to be a suspect? What a joke!”
Tabitha curled her lip, wanting to laugh, but she felt a sharp pain in her belly.
She stretched out her hand to hold her belly, and a bad feeling slowly rose
in her heart.
That kind of uneasiness made her more desperate than the pain of falling when Jayden kidnapped her.
Tabitha was about to call the nurse when Malcolm came in.
Noticing Tabitha’s pale face, he asked with concern, “What happened to you? Did the police officers come by just now?”
“It’s none of your business. Get out!” Tabitha shouted.
Tabitha knew that Malcolm was more willing to believe Naomi. After all, no one would deliberately frame her by using a miscarriage.
Malcolm thought her pale face was due to anger, and he advised patiently, “Calm down. I have a few words to ask you. You must tell me the truth.”
Naomi insisted that Tabitha was responsible for that incident, and a janitor was willing to testify that Tabitha quarreled with her before the incident.

“When you went for a checkup and met Naomi today, did you talk to her first, or did she provoke you first?” Malcolm inquired.
Tabitha replied with an indifferent expression, “She did. I didn’t want to talk to her in the first place. Even after she got on to the escalator, I’ve never touched her.”
“What did she say to you?” Malcolm asked.
Tabitha felt irritated with Malcolm’s forceful questioning and replied in an unfriendly tone, “She said you would take her for amniocentesis and give her a title with the test results.”
Malcolm asked subconsciously, “Are you angry?”
Tabitha endured the pain in her belly and responded in an extremely icy voice, “No. Instead, I’m getting more furious with your forceful way of questioning. Get out of here. I don’t want to answer any more questions.”
Malcolm explained stiffly, “The police found your fingerprint on the button. If we don’t get a thoroughBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates…
investigation, you’ll never have your name cleared.”
Tabitha was extremely disappointed when she knew Malcolm had undoubtedly chosen to believe Naomi.
“Get out,” Tabitha urged, clenching her fingertips. Her face was pale, and she felt a sense of vulnerability all over as she continued, “I’ve done. nothing wrong. None of you has the right to question me…”
Malcolm was slightly dejected since he was just trying to help her.
Suddenly, Tabitha stopped talking.
She sensed a coldness on her body and lowered her head to look at her belly. Her eyes shifted further down, and she saw blood oozing out.
