The Contracted Ever After novel Chapter 463

Why the hell? Why the hell was Tabitha, a mere nurse, carrying Ronan's child?

Tabitha didn't bother with Deanna for the moment. She was a nurse, after all, and there was a first aid kit at home, filled with scissors, bandages, antiseptics, and all sorts of emergency medicines.

Just as Tabitha was about to reach for the first aid kit, Deanna rushed towards her.

"Don't you dare bandage the kid!"

"Get lost!" Tabitha was also agitated. Tabitha was usually soft-spoken, but she had a strong-willed personality. Once provoked, she wouldn't hesitate to retaliate.

Who in the world had ever dared to tell Deanna to "get lost?" She clenched the bandages in her hand, refusing to let Tabitha touch them.

Their squabble made the child cry even louder.

"Buddy, don't cry. Mommy's here," Tabitha comforted the child.

"You slut, you are a disgusting woman. You must've seduced Ronan into bed with you. I'll kill you," Deanna said, her eyes red with fury.

For the past few years, she had been out of luck. Her acting career was going nowhere; she was barely making a living by selling beauty products, and she had been waiting for Ronan and Cordelia to divorce so she could move up in the world. But now, Tabitha had stolen her thunder by getting pregnant with Ronan's child. She felt both incompetent and outsmarted.

In her rage, Deanna grabbed the scissors from the first aid kit and lunged at Tabitha, stabbing her palm. But Tabitha, driven to desperation, snatched the scissors from Deanna and stabbed her in the chest.

It wasn't until Deanna collapsed in a pool of blood that Tabitha realized what she had done. The blood seeped into the downstairs apartment, attracting the neighbors' attention.

Tabitha slumped onto the floor, muttering, "I killed her, I killed her."

The child was also stained with blood, crying loudly.

Deanna remained unconscious, but her heart was still beating. By the time Ronan received the phone call, she was still in critical condition.
