When Niamh saw Kendrick, she made an aggrieved expression. “Kendrick, I didn’t want to do this to Niamh, but when I think about our deceased child, I get so sad…”
She found a reasonable reason to hurt Niamh.
Kendrick’s eyes widened. He looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief. She looked like she was crazy.
That was Niamh.
As he inspected her, Niamh lifted her head. Her face was bruised and there was blood on the corner of her lips. However, her eyes were pristine.
When he met her eyes, Kendrick felt a sudden shock.
Niamh did not expect to run into Kendrick again when she was in this state.
She gritted her teeth and used her last breath to run in front of Kendrick. Her bloody hands were covered with white ashes. She grabbed Kendrick’s collar tightly. “Kendrick! Why? Why are you so cruel? That’s our child! How could you be so cruel?”
Kendrick was stunned. He looked at the hysterical woman in front of him and his voice was as cold as before. “When did I have a child with you? Niamh, have you become confused after your incarceration?”
Every word he said felt like salt on her fresh and bloody wounds. The bone-piercing pain made her entire body numb.
“Hehe…” Niamh laughed pitifully.
It turned out he was so cruel that he even wiped away the presence of that child.
It turned out he was able to grind his own child’s bones to dust for that devil of a woman!
Niamh thought her heart was dead. She thought she would not be able to feel pain anymore.
However, she did not expect those wounds to start burning her again when she met that man once more.
“Kendrick, I didn’t expect Niamh to come to cause trouble for me the moment she got out of prison. I’m so scared. I’m so scared that she’ll hurt our baby again. She killed our baby once. I don’t want it to happen a second time.”
Nevaeh leaned against Kendrick’s chest while sobbing tearfully.
She was speaking so innocently, but it was evident that she was purposely lighting the fire of anger in Kendrick’s heart.
Just as the woman expected, Kendrick frowned as his malicious and terrifying gaze landed on Niamh.
“Niamh, do you think that three years in prison was too short for you? If you want to go back in there, you can tell me. Don’t let me catch you harassing Nevaeh again!”
He pushed Niamh away roughly and warned with an icy tone. His protection and tolerance for Nevaeh were even more intense than before. It was all evident in his voice.
Niamh staggered and fell on the floor. She quivered from the pain in her entire body.
When she recalled the beatings and sufferings from those 1,000 nights and days, her heart started beating faster.
She did not want to go back to that place with no justice.
Niamh gritted her teeth and clenched her fist. The bone-deep love that she had for Kendrick in her eyes suddenly changed drastically.
She hated this!
She hated everything that evil woman, Nevaeh, did! She hated this man’s cold-bloodedness and cruelty! She also hated him for allowing Nevaeh to do those things devoid of all morality directly or indirectly again and again.
Why should her precious daughter atone for this devil woman, Nevaeh’s, crimes?
Nevaeh was the one who deserved to die!
“Kendrick, let’s go. Today is our darling’s second birthday. Let’s not make Mom and Dad and the rest wait too long for us,” Nevaeh said sweetly. After she said that, she grabbed Kendrick’s hand to turn around.
Niamh’s heart had been sliced with a knife.
Heh, how ironic.
Today was also the birthday of her precious daughter who was killed mercilessly.
If she was alive, she would have been two.
She lifted her head to look at their backs. That image pieced her eyes like needles.
What kind of man was she obsessed with for so many years?
Those beautiful promises when they were young had turned into an imaginary dream. Now, it was time for her to wake up from this dream.
…
Niamh found a place to set up a tomb for her lost child. It was right next to her grandfather.
After Ava knew what happened, she was livid. She grabbed a cleaver and was about to go to demand an explanation from Kendrick and Nevaeh. However, she was stopped by Niamh.
Who was Kendrick? With his identity and background, who in Glendale dared to cause trouble for him?
Nevaeh had become one of the socialites from the four major rich families in Glendale. If they crossed her, they might not be able to keep staying here.
She did not want Ava to get into trouble because of her.
After pondering about her painful experience, Niamh decided to start over.
She could only avenge herself and her dead child if she rose from the brambles.
Two days later, Niamh went to work in her new company.
Some of the wounds on her face had not healed yet, so Niamh used some concealer to hide the bruises.
The moment she arrived at her office, before she could even sit down, she was called over by Eve Garcia—her superior.
Eve looked like a strong and powerful businesswoman. She was dressed in the trendiest outfit and was beautiful. However, she had a resting b*tch face, so she looked dead serious. This made Niamh extremely nervous. She was worried that she would mess things up and fail her probation.
However, Eve was courteous to her. She told Niamh she could take her time and that she did not need to worry too much about things.
Niamh thought her superior was cold on the outside and warm on the inside. It was just that she was serious in speech and manner. When they were having lunch in the cafeteria, Niamh saw her sitting with a few of their female colleagues with a smirk of disdain on her face.
“Niamh is such a useless piece of trash. She can’t do anything right. If the boss hadn’t told me to hire her, I wouldn’t even want to look at her.”
Niamh’s heart started racing.
Who was the boss Eve was talking about? She recalled seeing Nevaeh in front of the office building. Was this company under the Montgomerys?
“Someone who has been incarcerated, used to work as a call girl, and plagiarized other people’s work is in our department. I feel so disgusted! A woman like her even wants to take part in the design of our department. Aren’t they worried that she’ll tarnish our work?” Eve said in contempt. The sarcasm in her voice was completely different from her polite attitude earlier.
However, what she said made Niamh even more sure that this company was related to Nevaeh.
Nevaeh was the only person in the world who would talk bad about her and smear her name.
Despite being heartless, Kendrick would not do something so stupid and meaningless.
