Bai Sijia stepped out of the study and walked to the terrace on the second floor. She spotted Ye Lu's solitary figure walking along the quiet mountain road, giving a faint sneer before picking up her phone.
"Sister Jiayin, do you want revenge? That woman is alone now!"
Yuan Jiayin had just quarreled with Shang Jingchen and was full of rage with no outlet. At these words, she sneered.
"If it weren't for her, how could I have been abandoned by Shang Jingchen? This vile woman will truly suffer this time."
"By the way, she's pregnant."
"Oh, that's even better; nothing hurts a woman more than losing a child. I'll show her the consequences of crossing me." Yuan Jiayin's voice was full of bone-deep hatred, chilling to the bone.
...
Ye Lu plodded along the mountain road in a daze. The shock of recent events had plunged her into deep grief. She felt drained, and after half an hour's walk, exhaustion was setting in.
