Chapter 454
Wendy's expression shifted dramatically, her lips quivering as if she was on the verge of interrupting Jackson.
But Jackson's cold, deep eyes silenced her.
"Jackson, what do you mean? What's she trying to do?" Susan asked, her voice shaking.
There was too much to process, making her dizzy and confused.
Dominic figured it out. He angrily yanked Wendy off the hospital bed and slapped her twice.
"Not only did you find a lover, but now you want the Price family to raise a child of unknown origin! How can you be so cruel!"
Wendy's cheeks swelled red. She screamed and fell to the ground, hair disheveled.
Jackson said, "Wendy, you didn't want to give birth to a child with defects, so you planned to use today to have an abortion.
"You bribed Gabriel to perform the surgery and then lie that the child was saved.
"You'd become my mother's savior and produce an 'heir' for the Price family, fulfilling your plan.
"Gabriel confessed everything. Do you need me to bring him here to confront you?"
Listening to Jackson's merciless voice, Wendy trembled, feeling it was all over.
In just a few hours, how did he find out everything?
She knew arguing was pointless. She raised her tear-streaked face and wailed, "What could I do? The doctor said the child would be born with defects. I'm a mother too, and it breaks my heart! I hid it from you all, thinking it would be better for the Price family to have a healthy child. As long as you didn't find out the truth, it would be a kind of comfort!"
Lillian was stunned, looking at Wendy.
She hadn't expected Wendy to be so bold, enacting such a deceitful plan.
However, Wendy's logic was unbelievable.
Lillian looked at Dominic, who was furious, his body trembling.
"Shut up! You wicked woman! Are you planning to conspire with outsiders to poison me and take over the Price family fortune in the future?"
Wendy didn't say anything more, maybe because she really had planned this with Allen, or perhaps she knew that further arguing was pointless.
Dominic held his head and looked at Jackson. "Jackson, does the child really have defects?"
Jackson nodded. "Gabriel has been detained. Godfather, you can ask him yourself if you don't believe me."
Dominic closed his eyes, and Susan clutched her chest, collapsing onto the hospital bed.
"Mom! Mom, don't scare me, doctor!" Star screamed in panic, and the ward was thrown into chaos.
Jackson signaled Harry to take Wendy away and stepped forward to comfort Susan.
Wendy was dragged out of the ward, and Lillian, not wanting to stay in the ward any longer, followed them out.
Wendy's face was pale, her body weak, but she stared at Lillian with bloodshot, hateful eyes.
"I'm finished, but don't get too pleased! The wedding was ruined, and your husband disappeared on the wedding day to meet the woman he used to love, you...!"
Before Wendy could finish, Harry covered her mouth tightly.
"Mrs. Frane, don't listen to her nonsense. Mr. Frane urgently arranged for a helicopter to come back in time. Despite the unfavorable flying conditions, he took the risk to fly just to make it back in time."
Lillian didn't want to hear any of this.
She interrupted Harry indifferently, "Saying this is meaningless now."
The doctor went in to resuscitate, and Jackson also came out of the ward at this time.
He looked at Lillian's indifferent face and glanced at Harry.
Harry shut his mouth and said, "Mr. Frane, I'll take her away."
Jackson nodded, and Harry quickly dragged Wendy away.
