Chapter 161 The Frame Up
Joanna urged the panic-stricken Becky, "Becky, answer me now."
Isla looked at Becky with contempt, not intending to help her.
'When Becky set it all up, she should have known that this day would come. No wall can stop the truth,
' she thought.
Becky was in a state of alarm and didn't know what to do next. 'According to Isla, Aron has evidence of
my false pregnancy. Even if I can fool Joanna now, my lie will be known to all once Aron shows the
proof.'
After a bit of hesitation, Becky said to Joanna, "Grandma, I really love Aron. Please believe me."
"I trust you. But I only want to know the answer. Did you get pregnant at that time?" Joanna was
serious, determined to find out the truth.
"Does this mean so much to you?" Becky looked at Joanna with a frown and went on, "You know that
everything I do is for Aron and I love him wholeheartedly. Why do you obsess over this question?"
"Becky, it's a matter of principle." Now Joanna had guessed the answer. She felt heartbroken and
couldn't accept it. She asked, "Becky, why did you do that? We approved of your being together. Why
did you lie to us?"
"Your approval made no difference." Becky cried out hysterically, "Aron and I have been together for
four long years. His tough heart should have already softened, touched by my sincere love. But see
what happened? I have done so many things for him and what do I get? Aron still loves this bitch. It has
been almost half a decade, but he still couldn't forget her. Why does he love her instead of me?"
It was hard for Becky to accept it. She was superior to Isla in everything. However, Isla had met the
perfect man, and Becky was envious of that. That was why she had plotted to steal Aron away from
Isla by all means.
Joanna looked at Becky with surprise and disappointment. She understood Becky's thoughts, but she
could never agree to her ways.
Joanna said to Becky, looking heart broken, "Becky, you have changed."
Becky responded with a sneer and thought, 'It's all your fault. And you have the nerve to say that?'
"You have turned me into a wretched woman." Becky proceeded with a cold smile, "Grandma, I have
loved and served Aron with all my heart and put his needs before my own. But Aron ignored all of these
and only wanted to push me away. So don't blame me for what I am going to do."
"What are you going to do?" When Isla saw Becky walk up to Joanna, she dashed forward between Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Joanna and Becky. Isla stretched out her hand and advised her, "Becky, you're my cousin. I don't want
to see you make more mistakes. Why not give up on something that doesn't belong to you?"
'No matter whom Aron will marry, Becky won't be that person, ' thought Isla to herself.
"Shut up!" Becky shouted at Isla in anger "Aron is mine and no one can take him away from me!"
A crazy thought had occurred to Becky. 'Aron won't believe me anymore, and Joanna knows that I lied
to her. No one will be on my side. If... if Joanna has an accident, I could put the blame on Isla. Perhaps
Aron would resent her and give me another chance.'
Once the seed of this mad thought grew in her mind, she couldn't get rid of it. She suddenly grabbed
Isla's hands and pushed her hard. Isla slammed to one of the desks.
Before Isla could recover from the shock, Becky took Joanna by the arm and said, "Grandma, please
forgive me. You have discovered my secret and I can't let you live."
Becky continued with a sniff, "I know that you have always been fond of me, and you must hope that I
get married to Aron. Now help me, or Aron will leave me..."
"What are you doing?" Joanna asked, looking terrified. She was in poor health. As she watched Becky
approaching, she felt her heart beat faster.
"Becky, let go of her!" Isla had been shoved to a desk after Becky pushed her. Although she felt great
pain on her knee, she thought about Joanna's safety and ran to protect her.
Before Isla could reach Joanna, Becky pushed Joanna into the wall with so much strength. Joanna
blacked out immediately, with the blood gushing from her head.
"Help! Is there anyone around? Please help me..." Becky cried out. "Isla, are you going to kill me too?"
she howled out loud enough for those outside the office to hear.
Paula had been standing, not far from Isla's office. As soon as she heard the cries, she was the first
one to rush into the office. When she came in, she saw Becky crying on the floor, with Joanna in her
arms. Meanwhile, she was pointing at Isla accusing her of something horrible. She called out to Paula,
"Please help me call an ambulance."
Paula was taken aback at the scene. She couldn't move. She didn't come to her senses until Becky
asked her for help. She replied in panic, "Okay, I will!"
Paula took out her phone to call 120, and then called 110.
Then, she turned to Isla and said, "Miss Zhao, you overreacted. Whatever she said to you, you
shouldn't have hurt her. After all, she is old. What you did is a crime. You could be charged with
murder."
"No... I didn't..." Isla had a slight blood phobia. She almost fainted at the sight of it on Joanna's head.
Now, she was freaking out and just kept saying that it wasn't her.
"You did this." With Joanna in her arms, Becky was praying that the ambulance would arrive late. 'As
long as she dies on the way to the hospital, I'll be safe.'
Isla should have been more friendly to her co-workers. Now, no one would take her side.
"Isla, today I didn't agree when grandma proposed to come to you. However, I never expected that you
would do such a terrible thing to her. If you're mad at me, you could have just cursed or even beaten
me. But why did you have to hurt grandma?"
"Becky, shut up now!" Isla sat down and hugged herself, helpless and alone, "You pushed grandma on
purpose..."
