The Mysterious Wife novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Miscarriage

When Catherine saw Jocelyn’s reaction, she knew exactly what was going through her mind. She shook her head and sighed in her heart that Luke’s taste in women was getting increasingly worse with each mistress. This woman was

as dumb as a doorknob.

Catherine had spelt it out for her but this woman still wouldn’t heed her advice. She deserved what she was going

through

Catherine looked as cool and collected as ever. She glanced at a maid who was mopping the floor nearby and said,

“See this guest out.” Jocelyn left Catherine’s house with the check in hand.

She had made up her mind to keep the child. Her first priority was to return home and provide her growing fetus with nourishment. When she got home, she felt the place was lacking things for a baby so she happily made a trip to the mall

After several inquiries, she found out that the road was in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, and the car that hit her had no license. It would be very difficult to find the driver.

Jocelyn held her head and bawled her eyes out in the bed. “It was probably just an accident, Miss. I’m so sorry. Take it easy. You will fall pregnant in future,” the nurse said in a sympathetic, comforting voice. Being a nurse herself, she had seen a lot of women miscarry after a tragic accident. “No. I won’t. It’s impossible now!” Jocelyn laughed bitterly and her anguish could be heard in her voice. Her eyes were bloodshot and she had lost her mind. No matter how stupid she was, she could figure out that it was Luke who was behind it. He didn’t want her to give birth to his child. Probably for fear that she wouldn’t go and have the abortion, he felt the need to take care of this himself. He acted like a gentleman all the time, but he was just pretending. He was actually cruel and vicious. Jocelyn cried out bitterly, “Liar! He’s a monster! How could he do such a terrible thing?” Finally, the extent of Luke’s cruelty dawned upon her. She became even more panicked. She didn’t have a single soul to rely on anymore, and she had lost her child. With her last glimmer of hope, Jocelyn called Charis. She thought that Charis was a simple and unsophisticated woman, so she could still deceive her and pretend to be pitiful in front of her. She genuinely believed that Charis would help her. She would ask Charis to plead with Luke for mercy. For the sake of his daughter, she believed that Luke would forgive her.
