Chapter 463 A Wicked Woman

Calista crossed his arms and squinted at Mirabelle. “If you were to die on my operating table, I’d take responsibility for your life. All these people here can bear witness. I’ll take the blame if with your health after the check–up. What else are you afraid of? Hmm? Could it be that you’re afraid that

any issues arise the child in your belly might actually survive?”

At this point, Calista seemed to find the situation amusing, a faint laugh escaping her lips. Her starry eyes held a touch of frosty indifference and weariness, inexplicably sending chills down one’s spine, making it impossible to hold her gaze.

Mirabelle’s mouth opened and closed in hesitation. She contemplated pretending to be unwell but realized it would only give Calista more reason to take her to the operating room.

Mirabelle wanted to plead for help from Kallum, but he didn’t even spare her a glance. What am I supposed to do? I really don’t want this bad seed!

Seeing Mirabelle dilly–dallying, the girl from before couldn’t stand it any longer and exploded in frustration. “What on earth are you hesitating about? Or are you just fooling us? Did you really fall down the stairs by yourself? No way! You’re so malicious to harm others and even abandon your own child, and on top of that, you deceived us. You completely fooled me!”

“No… It’s not like that…” Mirabelle wished she could faint, yet feared that if she did, Calista might tell her the child was saved, which would drive her to madness. “I can’t do this anymore. I’ve lost so much blood. There’s no way this child will survive. Even if the child survives, there will be complications. I just can’t!”

Calista scoffed and enunciated, “I told you, no? If he has any problems, if his life is cut short, if he becomes foolish, even if he is a bit weaker than other children, you can come to me. What are you worried about? Are you afraid that I can’t take responsibility or that I can’t compensate you? Or are you afraid that I might actually save him?”

Mirabelle kept stepping back. The gazes from the crowd had become incredibly harsh. Her constant stalling was revealing in itself. They had all been fooled by her. This woman truly didn’t want this child. They thought perhaps she had willingly thrown herself down.

In a state of panic, Mirabelle gritted her teeth and said, “Yes! I don’t want this child! But it was you who pushed me down just now! You wanted to kill me because I said something that provoked you!”

Everyone’s expressions subtly shifted the moment Mirabelle revealed her sinister and ugly side. They hadn’t expected to be truly deceived by this woman.

The girl shrieked even louder, “How are you so wicked? You’re still playing the blame game. I’ve truly misjudged you!”

Amidst a clamor of noise and accusations, Calista shrugged nonchalantly and said to Darren, “All right, there’s no need for surgery. Cancel the operating room.”

Darren wore a look of regret. “I see…”

Calista chuckled lightly. “There’s no need for you to feel that way. I don’t even know how to operate!”

“What?” At this point, everyone, except for Kallum, was taken aback. They all believed that Calista was not only a Medical Genius, but her medical skills were also extraordinarily impressive.

modern medicine, she didn’t know how to perform surgery.

Finished

Upon hearing her say this, Mirabelle suddenly remembered that she had never seen Calista study any surgical knowledge from childhood to adulthood. In her panic, she had forgotten such crucial information. One mistake then led to another. At that momcht, Mirabelle’s face turned ashen, a faint hint of despair washing over her.

Ignoring the surprised expressions of those around her, Calista simply gazed at Mirabelle with a nonchalant look. “Do you still insist on saying that I pushed you down the stairs? If you really believe that, I can’t do much about it. After all, we were so close at that time that it’s hard to explain even if I try. How much compensation do you want? I may not have much else, but I’m not short on money.”

When she said that, Kallum couldn’t help but laugh.

Callie spoke with such confidence that no one would believe she was still penniless. Naturally, if she were to go to him for money, he would be more than happy to give it to her. After all, it was only natural for a wife to spend her husband’s money.

Mirabelle opened her mouth, finally uttering with little confidence, “You purposely hurt me. Even if I didn’t want this child, you still killed him! I will sue you for intentional harm, and I will also accuse you of premeditated murder!”

“Enough!” An elderly man suddenly rapped his cane. “I can vouch for it. Ms. Stafford didn’t even touch this woman. She tumbled down all by herself!”

As soon as he spoke, a few others chimed in agreement, “Exactly! We didn’t see Ms. Stafford push her. Maybe she just lost her footing?”

They all held a grudge against Mirabelle for her recent deception. She had echoed a myriad of half–truths, and then, unsurprisingly, not a single person stood by Mirabelle’s side.

Darren finally managed to grasp the situation. He glanced at the staircase, hesitating before saying, “The camera in that area would have captured everything. We’ll know who’s in the right and who’s in the wrong once we look into it.”

Only then did Mirabelle’s heart sink into despair. Oh, no! I’ve sacrificed a child, and I still can’t hurt Calista in the slightest!

In reality, her situation wasn’t something to be panicked about. Even if the camera had caught her, it wouldn’t have mattered. She had tried to grab Calista’s hand, and Calista had pulled away. It was reasonable for her to claim that Calista had pushed her. However, because she had fallen and miscarried and then been berated by Calista, her mind was in a daze. As she listened to others defending Calista, she could not utter a word in her own defense.
