Chapter 238
Wilhelmina gritted her teeth as she seethed within. Her expression turned even more vulnerable.
“Matt, of course, Willow shoved me down the stairs! It was just me and her at the scene. Are you saying that I fell down the stairs myself?
“Matt, I was pregnant, and I looked forward to this baby more than anyone else. Why would I hurt my baby?
“Do you think I killed our child? If that’s how you see me, I have no reason to live anymore! Matt, I always thought you would trust me unconditionally. I would rather die if you lose trust in me!”
“Willa..”
She felt relieved when she heard him calling her nickname in a loving voice. She thought, “He might have been temporarily seduced by Willow, but deep down, he loves me the most. He will not believe in Willow’s words.”
She said to him, “Matt, your behavior just now saddens me. For a second, I thought you fell in love with
I Willow. You started suspecting me for her!”
“Willa, I did not suspect you of anything. But I am sure that Willow did not hurt our child.”
“Matt, what are you talking about?” Her jaw fell to the floor in surprise.
“Willa, I watched the security footage of the second–floor staircase at the Enchanted Moments store.” Pausing, he revealed, “The footage proved that Willow did not touch you at all. You stumbled down the stairs yourself.”
Hearing that, Wilhelmina couldn’t stop herself from shooting Skyler a quizzical glance as if asking, “What is going on?”
Skyler merely shook her head softly. She, too, had not expected the turn of events. After getting the news of Wilhelmina falling down the stairs, she immediately went to work.
She first called the branch of Enchanted Moments. The store manager, an acquaintance of hers. destroyed the security footage of the second floor without hesitation. Not only that, but the manager also fabricated the security footage glitch issue.
Skyler wondered how Matthew watched the original footage after all the careful preparations she had
attempt, she wailed, “Matt, I did not frame Willow! Please believe in me, will you?”
Wilhelmina’s heart pounded against her chest. Did Matthew have a copy of the footage?
