Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 605 Forbidden To Set Foot In Sophia's Bedroom Ever Again

"Miss Yates, what's wrong? Octavia gasped and immediately attended to Zoella."

My tummy hurts. It hurts. Zoella bit her lips. She was drenched in sweat and looked pale.

"Ah, let's get you to the hospital then. Octavia helped her up in a panic."

Zoella gritted her teeth as she endured the waves of pain coming from her stomach. She felt as if there was blood flowing out between her legs.

"Oscar kicked her squarely in the stomach the night before, which almost made her pass out from the pain. Not only did Oscar torture her that night, he also shoved cigarette ends and a lighter inside of her under Liya's provocation."

"She didn't know how she managed to survive. She felt cold all over her body, and the pain inside of her abdomen kept surging to the extent that she was not able to stand up on her own."

Octavia could only try her best to support Zoella and head outside with her.

There was more blood flowing out from in between Zoella's legs. Even a sanitary pad couldn't stop the bleeding.

"They finally reached downstairs. Octavia drove Zoella to the hospital. After they arrived at the hospital, she helped Zoella out of the car and saw the bloody liquid in the backseat. The scent of blood filled the entire car."

Octavia panicked.

"She hurriedly got Zoella a doctor's appointment, and the hospital performed a round of examinations on Zoella."

The doctor told them with a neutral expression that Zoella had a miscarriage.

Zoella and Octavia were shocked to hear that.

Zoella was actually pregnant.

She lay on the surgical chair in the hospital. Her face was as pale as ash.

"It had been a couple of months since Oscar first tortured her, and she was carrying the fruit of his torture all this while."

"She was pregnant, and it was obviously Oscar's."

Oscar happened to have kicked the fetus inside of her the previous night. That was great!

Zoella shivered with her teeth chattering as she let out a burst of heart-rending laughter.

"After leaving the operating theater, Zoella lay in the ward with her face pale. She stared blankly out of the window."

"She was pregnant, and the father of the baby kicked her until she miscarried."

It was fine. She finally didn't have to bear the psychological burden of carrying his baby around anymore.

"If she was still pregnant, then she wouldn't know what to do."

Tears streamed down from her eyes in silence. She shut her eyes.

"Harvey Manor was shrouded in a thin layer of the Tristany morning mist. The birds were chirping on top of a tree, bringing with them a cheerful ambience."

"Liya got out of the electric vehicle. She clicked on her heels, with her purse in hand, as she headed towards the corridor to the Ink Garden."

"After working hard the night before, Liya received two million dollars from Oscar, and she managed to teach Zoella, that b*tch, a lesson. Although Liya was tired, she was clearly in a good mood." "She could see from a distance that Aunt Ella had taken a pot with her as she walked out of the Ink Garden lounge, heading outside."

Liya yawned as she was about to return to her guest room for a nap.

There was no one in the living room when Liya walked past.

"Liya was about to continue walking further down, but she paused and pondered for a while. She cast a glance at the living room, and there was indeed no one inside. Liya was reminded of the time when she snuck into Sophia's bedroom to tamper with the will, and she was eager to do so again."

"Sophia was the richest person in the Ink Garden. It wouldn't be surprising if she had a vast collection of rare jewels in her bedroom. Liya only managed to tamper with the will previously, and obtained benefits from it. With her current identity, she didn't have to sneak into Sophia's bedroom anymore."

"With that in mind, Liya smoothed the creases on her outfit and strode right into Sophia's bedroom."

Sophia was still lying on her bed. She was so weak that she looked like a ball of cotton wool.

"D*mn old woman. Liya let out a low curse as she walked over, and glanced coldly at her. She then swept a glance around the bedroom, searching for any valuable item."

"However, apart from those heavy brown furniture, there weren't any particularly fine items in Sophia's bedroom. Although those heavy brown furniture were valuable as well, it was impossible for Liya to move them out of the bedroom on her own."

"Liya then cast a glance at the desk. There was some antique stuff on it, and she couldn't tell how much they were worth. She was slightly disappointed at once."

"Belle, Belle, Sophia suddenly started to mutter with her throat puffing."

"Liya, who was rummaging around, was startled upon hearing her voice. She immediately lowered her head to look at Sophia."

"She saw that Sophia's eyes were closed. Although she was muttering, Sophia was not fully conscious."

"Liya heard the name Belle clearly. She was reminded of how Sophia had stated in her will that Calvin was not allowed to marry Liya herself, and that Harvey Manor no longer owed Liya anything. Sophia was cruel to her, yet protective towards Belle. This thought alone made Liya extremely jealous and upset. She cast a vicious glance at Sophia."

"Why in the world was Sophia still alive? Liya thought to herself. She then bent down and started searching through Sophia's bed frame, hoping that she could find something valuable."

There was an antique jade by the headboard. It seemed to be of the finest quality and was worth a fortune. Her hand moved beyond Sophia and was about to reach the jade. Who are you? Sophia suddenly asked.

Liya was frightened to hear that. She immediately looked at Sophia.

"To her surprise, Sophia was staring right at her."

"Although Sophia still looked weak and pale, there was something dignified and terrifying about her gaze, which sent a chill down Liya's spine."

"Liya withdrew her hand and took a step back out of guilt, drenched in a cold sweat from fright."

"Right at that moment, she could hear someone talking in the corridor."

"Aunt Ella, did Grandma eat any congee today? Belle was heard asking in a gentle tone."

"Madam, she did eat some congee. Aunt Ella replied respectfully, """But then, her incontinence problem has caused some blisters on her skin. I did put some napkin pads for her instead, but you know that she values her personal hygiene a lot. She would always try to get rid of them."""""

"Alas, Aunt Ella, thank you so much for taking care of her. She's blessed to have you by her side, Belle replied gratefully. She knew how exhausting it must be for Aunt Ella to take care of Sophia, and she was doing it even better than Paige did."

"You're welcome, Madam. The Old Madam took care of me well all this while. It's time for me to repay her for this, Aunt Ella replied politely."

"As they spoke, they walked into Sophia's bedroom."

Both of them were surprised as they stepped into the room.

"Grandma, you have to cover up yourself with this quilt. It's summertime now, but it's still cold with this air-conditioning. You can't catch a cold. Liya was speaking in a gentle tone as she bent down and tugged Sophia under the sheets."

"Belle and Aunt Ella exchanged horrified looks with each other, as they thought to themselves, why did Liya come in?" "Liya, how can you come into Grandma's room as you like? Belle asked with a dignified tone after clearing her throat." "Upon hearing Belle's voice, Liya turned around with an exaggerated, wide smile on her face."

"Belle, how can you talk in such a manner? I'm the rightful second wife to Calvin appointed by Grandma herself in her will. She has done so much for me. So, of course, I will have to take care of her, Liya said in an exaggerated tone."

Sophia's will?

Belle trembled slightly as she heard that. She was reminded of the contents written in Sophia's will and felt uncomfortable.

"Hmph. Aunt Ella snorted and said loudly, ""The Old Madam's bedroom is only accessible to the madams, young madams, and children of the Harvey family. As for the other wives and mistresses, they're not allowed to enter Old Madam's bedroom on their own. I hope that certain people will keep in mind that Old Madam herself doesn't like people breaking this rule too.""""

"Aunt Ella then faced Liya and said, """You may leave now. We can take care of Old Madam. Please leave this instant."""""

She clearly didn't welcome Liya's presence in the bedroom. Aunt Ella had always been vocal about her dislike towards Liya.

"Liya lifted an eyebrow as she glanced at Aunt Ella and said coldly, """It seems like you don't know your place here, old woman. I'm the second wife to the head of the family, and I'm appointed by Grandma herself. So, tell me. Why can't I visit her and why can't I take care of her? You're nothing but a helper. Who are you to be talking back to me?""""

"Aunt Ella's heart felt as if it was stuffed when she heard that. Her expression darkened. She had been taking care of Sophia for so long. Everyone in Harvey Manor respected her. Even Sophia herself adored her, and wouldn't talk harshly to her. Yet, Liya was scolding her. Aunt Ella was frustrated."

"Shut up. Belle couldn't stand it any longer and immediately shouted. She continued saying, ""Liya, don't get too ahead of yourself. You should be glad that Mr. Hudson had approved of your stay. How dare you talk so harshly in Grandma's bedroom? You're ridiculous. Let me tell you this. From today onwards, you're forbidden to set foot in Grandma's bedroom. Otherwise, I'll ask the security guards to kick you out of the Ink Garden and let you extend your stay in the maid's quarters in the Fragrance Garden instead. Try me if you don't believe my words."

Belle glared at Liya with a serious expression.

"Belle, you shouldn't get too ahead of yourself either. Yes, Sophia did arrange your marriage with Calvin, but as for me? I'm the woman she appointed in her will, the woman that Calvin must marry. So, how dare you act like you're superior to me? How dare you disrespect me? Liya protested."

The corners of Belle's mouth slightly twitched as she fixed her sharp gaze on Liya.

"Liya, it's important for you to know your place. Do you really think Sophia will revise her will to include that? Belle asked as she took a step forward."

"Liya was forced to take a step back under Belle's imposing aura. Her heart was thumping loudly as she asked, """What do you mean? Are you trying to go against her will?""""

"What do I mean? Belle sneered. ""'We all know, don't we? Grandma already stated clearly that the Harvey family don't owe you anything anymore. Yet, why did she revise her will for Calvin to marry you under the current circumstances? Try to think of this. If you still have doubts, then why don't we ask Grandma for confirmation then? I'm sure she will give us the correct answer on whether the revised will is valid or not. Although Grandma is mostly semi-conscious, there are times where she is clear-headed. Don't worry. I will get to the bottom of this."'"'"'

"Belle sounded confident, whereas Liya got more and more uneasy. She was reminded of the cold and sharp glance from Sophia earlier. She was once again drenched in sweat. She believed Belle's words, and she didn't dare confront her any further. Liya could only gather up her courage and said, """"Let me tell you, Belle, I'm not afraid of you. I will marry Calvin, and you'll never stop me. Let's wait and see."" After saying that, Liya left the room in haste."
