Chapter 102 I Want You to Never Be Able to Turn Over.

After speaking, I couldn’t be bothered to waste words with her, and turned around to leave.

“Tabatha, aren’t you curious about how I suddenly knew you weren’t pregnant?” She stopped me with

her words, her tone cold. “Why don’t you give your best friend a call and ask her where she is right

now? See if she’s doing okay?”

I froze in place, looking back at her, a sense of foreboding rising in my heart, Rachel…

I coldly stared at Ashley, stepping forward a few paces, glaring at her, “Ashley, what did you do to

Rachel?”

Seeing my anxiety, she was in a great mood, squinting her eyes and starting to laugh, “What’s the big

deal? What could I, a pregnant woman, do to her? She brought it upon herself, insisting on squeezing

into Henry’s life, interfering with his affairs, and ended up being taken away by Henry.”

Henry!

Rachel and I had mentioned before, Henry seemed to be using cocaine, and she planned to follow him

to find some news material from him.

Could it be…

My heart skipped a beat, my entire body tensed up, I tightly gripped Ashley’s collar, glaring at her, Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Where did you take Rachel?”

In my haste, I uncontrollably raised my voice, even the force with which I grabbed her collar was a bit

too much.

Seeing my reaction, Ashley seemed quite pleased with herself, arrogantly looking at me and saying,

“You seem quite worried about her. But it’s a pity, considering the time, she should have already been

dealt with by Henry.”

“Ashley!” I was about to explode, wishing I could strangle her right then and there, but the only shred of

sanity left in me reminded me that I needed to find Henry immediately. Taking a deep breath, I grabbed

her and said, “You need to call Henry right now, tell him not to hurt Rachel. Whatever he wants, I’ll give

it to him!”

Seeing my flustered and faultless appearance, Ashley laughed and mocked, “Such deep sisterly love

indeed.”

“Call now!” I didn’t have the mood to talk more with her, only praying in my heart that Rachel was okay.

Seeing this, she took out her phone and dialed Henry’s number. The call seemed to be answered in no

time, but I couldn’t hear the voice on

the other end.

I just saw Ashley push me away and say into the phone, “Hello, husband.”

I didn’t want to wait for Ashley to dawdle, so I snatched the phone from her hand and said into the

receiver, “Henry, don’t hurt Rachel…”

Halfway through speaking, I suddenly realized that there was no sound on the other end of the phone.

Instinctively, I glanced at my phone and saw that Ashley hadn’t made a call at all on the screen.

I looked at her, and she was smirking at me with a face full of sarcasm at that moment, her gaze was

like looking at a monkey being teased by

her.

The rage in my heart suddenly became uncontrollable. With a “smack”,

I threw my phone, without any hesitation, I directly grabbed her throat,

my eyes bloodshot with anger as I glared at her, “Ashley, you…”

“Walter, save me!” Ashley suddenly shouted behind me, her hands tightly gripping the hand I had

around her neck, her face full of terror as she looked at me. “Tabatha, don’t kill me, please, I won’t fight

with you for Walter anymore, please don’t kill me.”

“Tabatha, stop!” A deep and stern voice of a man came from behind.

I froze, instinctively turning around, to see Walter sprinting towards the gazebo.

My hand, which was clutching Ashley’s neck, subconsciously loosened. Suddenly, I heard Ashley’s

gloating voice, “Tabatha, I want you to lose completely.”

Before I could react.

“Splash!” I quickly turned around, only to see her fall into the pond. under the pavilion without any

warning.

“Swoosh!” A figure swiftly flashed past me and immediately jumped into the pool.

It was Walter.

Watching the two people struggling in the pool, I stood frozen in place, my mind somewhat dazed.

Everything that had just happened was too sudden, I hadn’t yet processed what exactly was going on.

“Someone’s fallen in the water… Someone’s fallen in the water, help, someone’s fallen in the water!”

The people near the pond noticed the two splashing in the water and started shouting.

The noise was too loud, the bodyguards of the Hinton family heard it and all rushed over, jumping into

the pool. Before long, Walter and Ashley were pulled up.

Ashley choked on water and was unconscious when she was pulled up. Walter knelt beside her, giving

her artificial respiration. After a while, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of water and woke up.

Someone brought over a blanket, and Walter hastily wrapped it around her.

Once they had calmed down, someone quickly went to find a doctor.

Awakening, Ashley looked around weakly, her gaze falling on Walter. Suddenly, tears began to pour

down her face. She curled her petite body into Walter’s arms, clutching tightly at his sleeves, her eyes

red as she said, “Walter, I thought… I thought I would never see you again.”
