The Mother-in-Law Behind Closed Doors Chapter 9
"Veronica, for the sake of our years of friendship, can’t you forgive me? I’ll trade a secret with you—do you know how you lost your baby?"At the mention of the child I had miscarried, I closed my eyes briefly and grabbed her collar. "What do you mean? Wasn’t my miscarriage an accident?""Please, promise me you’ll spare me first, okay?"Lily still wanted to negotiate, but I immediately turned to leave. She hurriedly said, "I’ll tell you! Back then, I took Leonard’s mom to a private hospital, and they said your baby was a girl. Leonard’s parents didn’t want her, so they deliberately poured oil on the floor. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have lost your baby."When I heard the truth, my face went ashen. All this time, I had believed it was my own carelessness that caused the miscarriage. Mary even blamed me for it…Tears streamed down uncontrollably. “My child, I swear, your mother will avenge you,” I silently vowed to myself."I’ve told you everything. Can you let me go now?"I gently lif

Meanwhile, Lily put on a show of comforting me, all while steering me towards a bar to borrow money from Walden.She was fishing for info on my savings, but at the same time, she was busy pulling surveillance footage to send to Leonard.I guessed that Lily’s initial goal was similar to Mary’s—to get money out of me. The only difference was that Mary wanted to use the situation with George to force a divorce between Leonard and me. I remembered the time when I suddenly had a miscarriage. I was depressed and withdrawn, and even when Leonard and I were intimate, I always took precautions. I was too scared to become pregnant again. Mary was always frustrated by this. Later, Lily started coming over to take care of me, and Mary’s complaints gradually faded. I think Mary’s plan was to use George to drive a wedge between me and Leonard and, in the process, make me hand over my personal savings. But what I didn’t expect was how greedy Lily turned out to be—she wanted all my money, wh

I couldn’t take it anymore— even a cornered rabbit would bite back!Lily suddenly hugged me, her voice soft and comforting. "Veronica, this can’t go on. Do you have any personal savings? Bring it out, and I’ll help figure out the rest. We can’t let your husband find out!"Hearing her suggestion made me hesitate.Before I got married, my parents had indeed given me a sum of money. They were worried when I insisted on marrying Leonard and moving so far away from home, so they gave it to me as a safeguard. But I had never intended to touch that money! I planned to return it to them when they got older.Under Lily’s anxious urging, I finally said, "I have about five hundred thousand dollars for now, but let me think about it some more."This situation also involved Mary, so I needed to find a chance to ask her directly!But when I got home, the atmosphere in the room felt heavy, like I was a criminal."Veronica, you've brought shame upon the entire Hunter family!" Charles yelled at me an

"Come on, Miss Paige. You're the one who begged me to serve you. Don't tell me you've forgotten that night? You were all over me. Of course, I had to snap a few pics to remember it by!""Get lost! Don’t disgust me any further! People like you should be locked up!"His flippant words easily sparked my anger. Thinking back to that night, I could barely remember what happened after a certain point.I had no idea how I made it back home. I found myself crying helplessly on the balcony.Where was I supposed to get the million dollars George was demanding?Faced with his threat, I felt completely trapped. If he went through with it, my entire family would be destroyed.I didn’t have the courage to confess any of this to Leonard.At some point, Mary came up behind me. When she saw the state I was in, she was shocked and handed me a tissue to wipe my tears."Veronica, what happened? If something’s wrong, you can tell me. Did Leo do something to upset you? Tell me, and I’ll stand up for you."
