Chapter 339 Almost Sent Her to Hell

"How did you get it?" Chloe fumbled with the ring.

"Grandma passed away. I picked it up from her bedside. I originally just wore it for fun, but I didn't expect a series of nightmares to start." Barbara had one eye covered with thick gauze, looking quite comical, but her tone was terrifying.

"What happened?" Chloe was puzzled.

"How would I know what's going on? I initially thought it was all Paisley behind it, but after I went to Aetheria yesterday and she intentionally injured my eye, I realized it wasn't her at all! Chloe, this is all your fault! It's your ring that attracted your enemies to me. They sent white phosphorus to our house, which spontaneously ignited and killed Grandma. The real culprit behind Grandma's death is you! Chloe, stop pretending to be innocent." Barbara cursed Chloe viciously.

Chloe's stomach pain intensified.

"How do you know the ring is mine?" Chloe asked.

"Except for you, no one had visited Grandma. It's yours. I went to Aetheria yesterday to confront Paisley, but she injured my eye. When I went to the bathroom, I overheard someone on the phone, speaking in a low voice, but I still heard it. They said, 'As per your instructions, it's the one wearing the ring. Last time, we failed to burn her, but ended up burning her grandma instead. However, she thinks it's all Paisley's doing.' Chloe, you not only harmed me but also killed your grandma. You deserve to die!"

"You're making this up, right?" Chloe looked at the ring. "It's just a ring."

Chloe wanted to test the truth of Barbara's words.

"Chloe, if it weren't for the fact that you're pregnant, I'd throw you into the lake to feed the fish! I don't know who you've offended! Just remember, you killed your grandma. Also, Paisley told me that six years ago, she was indeed pregnant with Donovan's child, but she had a miscarriage. If Donovan knew, imagine how guilty he'd feel." With that, Barbara walked away arrogantly.

As Barbara turned around, Chloe's face instantly changed.

Just now, in front of Barbara, she had forced herself to stay composed, not revealing her inner vulnerability.

Barbara's last words had deeply affected Chloe.

Today, two people had already mentioned that Paisley was once pregnant with Donovan's child.

She looked at the ring in her hand and recalled Barbara's words that it was she who had killed Walter.

Although she hadn't made Barbara wear the ring, it was still hers, making her the main culprit.

Unexpectedly, the ring hadn't brought her biological parents to her but had instead attracted enemies.

Chloe raised her hand and threw the ring into the lake.

Suddenly, her stomach pain became excruciating.

Barbara turned around with a vengeful expression on her face.

The story about Paisley and Donovan was something she had added herself.

Having worn Chloe's ring and suffered so much, with her eye injured by lime and not knowing when it would heal, she was already frustrated. She had initially thought it was Paisley's doing, but now it turned out it wasn't; the target was Chloe.

Her hatred for Chloe far exceeded her hatred for Paisley.

She not only wanted Chloe to feel guilty for killing her grandma but also intentionally wanted to drive a wedge between Chloe and Donovan.

Barbara knew Donovan wouldn't admit it, but such things were hard to prove.

Barbara didn't realize that it was this same kind of tacit understanding with Lori that almost sent Chloe to hell.
