Chapter 240 You Set Me Up
Chapter 240 You Set Me Up
Logan was telling his plan to Elena by action. Elena was asked to lie on the bed in the hospital. Jeff folded his arms before his chest, “How can you come up with such a great idea, Logan? So you are making a drama in my little clinic?”
Logan raised his eyebrows, “Yeah, you have a chance to play in this drama.”
“Thank you very much,” Jeff answered, rolling his eyes.
Jacob knocked on the door, “Sir, it’s ready. They are on the way.”
Jeff had a look at Elena and said, “Oh, no. It won’t work!”
“Any problem?!”
“Yes!” Jeff was in a hurry, “Look at her face! She is florid! A woman who experiences miscarriage won’t be that florid!”
Elena said to Jacob, “The nurse may have cosmetics. Please borrow a foundation for me.”
Jacob got a foundation for her. She got the powder puff and patted the foundation on her face. In a minute, she got a pale face.
She raised her head and looked at Jeff, asking, “Okay?”
Jeff was scared by her unnatural pale face, answering with several nods, “Perfect!”
Elena gave the foundation back to Jacob and lay back on the bed. She looked at Logan, “Lying on the bed is my job now, isn’t it?”
Logan curled his lips, coughing to clear his throat, “Em…Yes. You are doing a good job.”
Soon after, they arrived. Looking at George’s stern expression, Jeff thought there would be a fight in his small clinic.
George was sullen. He asked, “Where is Elena?”
Jacob answered, “Madam just woke up. She doesn’t feel well now. Please be quiet.”
Jacqueline was so angry when she saw Elena’s pale face. She knew it was fake, “No! She's just pretending to be sick! She didn’t even touch the soup!”
“Shut your fuck up!” George cursed, “Pretend? You made her sick and want to get away with it?!”
“She is lying! Please trust me…” Jacqueline tried to explain. She heard it from the man, that Logan and Elena were acting to set her up. So she knew they were lying.
“Trust you? You evil bitch! How dare you deny it? You are trying to set Elena up; the maid witnessed that you made the soup and sprayed the perfume!” This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“No…” No one would trust her. She was helpless, “I…I don’t know why I put the ingredients! I don’t know they are harmful to a pregnant woman. I don’t mean it! And the perfume…It is just a gift. It smells good so I like…”
George was controlling himself, or he would give a slap on her face at once. “Don’t make any excuses!”
“No, I don’t…”
“You was once pregnant too. You must know what kind of food a pregnant woman should avoid! You did that to Elena on purpose!”
Logan looked at Jacqueline flatly, “I try to show respect to you as you are a senior in the Browns. I am so shocked that you want to kill our baby!”
“Don’t put that shit on me! You and Elena are liars! Liars!” Jacqueline was so angry. She walked to Elena in no time and pulled her comforter off.
“Look! The baby is still alive in her womb!”
However, Elena’s belly was flat now. No one could tell if they had lost the baby.
Jeff pulled Jacqueline, trying to stop her, “Hey, Mrs. Please don’t be rude to the patient. She is still weak. If…”
“If what?! She will have a hemorrhage or what? Don’t fool me!” Jacqueline shouted, “It is just a bowl of soup! I don’t believe she will lose the baby just because of a bowl of soup!”
“Mom! Calm down!” Yolanda pulled her arms and stopped her crazy actions.
But Jacqueline didn’t listen to Yolanda, shoving her away hard. “Don’t get in my way!”
Then she stared at Jeff, “You said she miscarried. Show us the evidence!”
“Well…”
“Jacqueline!” Cornel couldn’t bear her nonsense anymore. He walked to her and slapped her face without thinking twice. “Wake up! Don’t be a troublemaker here!”
The sudden slap stunned her. She couldn’t believe her husband slapped her!
“How dare you, Cornel!”
Cornel looked at her coldly, “Stop it, Jacqueline. If you are making trouble, I will let you learn your lesson!”
“Great! Great! Cornel! You are not a coward now! I will let you know who is the liar!”
Elena looked pale and innocent, lying on the bed and watching them fighting. She started to talk, “Jacqueline, you can’t cover it up. Please answer me; the soup was made by you, wasn’t it?”
Jacqueline said, “Yes, I made it. But you didn’t drink even a drop of it.”
“You mean that I am wronging you?” Elena lowered her head, pretending to sob.
Logan embraced her, patting her back and acting like soothing her.
Jacqueline was nettled by their manner. “Bitch! You set me up?!” Her face twisted in fury. She wanted to beat her. However, George stopped her at once. He pulled her so hard that he nearly dislocated her shoulder.
“Jacqueline! You really are an evil monster! You set Elena up first, and now you are humiliating her! How malevolent you are!”
Yolanda begged, “Grandpa, my mom doesn’t mean it. Please trust her! She just wants to be nice to Elena! She won’t hurt her!”
Jacqueline realized that no one could save her. Everyone was blaming her. Though she had a daughter, she couldn’t do anything helpful!
Logan slowly curved her lips. The ironic smile on his face seemed to tell her that she was a loser.
“Great!” Jacqueline stamped her foot, “I will show you evidence! I will prove that Elena is telling lies! She never lost her baby!”
