Chapter 218: Chapter 218: PANDORA BOX FINALLY OPENED 4

Raine couldn’t believe her ears.

She looked at Briar, gasping for air and veins popping out. Completely in disbelief.

"You .... How could you? How can you be so cruel like that?" Raine accused angrily, glaring at Briar with reddened eyes.

Briar flicked her nails playfully as she looked at Raine amusedly and responded, "You should have asked yourself that very question when you thought of aligning yourself with Anna to deal with me. If you were the kind person, perhaps not even thinking about taking a taken man, would have saved you from this trouble.

Besides, why call me vicious when all I did was protect myself from people like you? If I had lost, wouldn’t I either be dead or locked up like you? Hmph, should I have just stood there and waited for you to deal with me?

Just because I grew up in the countryside, and haven’t learnt much. Do you think that makes me stupid?" Briar rolled her eyes at Raine. How can a person be so stupid?

Raine, upon hearing that, steam nearly came out of her ears, completely angry and frustrated. Unfortunately, the person she was dealing with didn’t seem to care.

Briar knew that time was ticking and needed to finish explaining her story to Raine before Logan sent someone. How could she let Raine be locked up here without knowing how she lost?

So, she continued and narrated about how they lured her out of the hospital and got her interested to the point of where it ended.

The other time when Briar was talking with Irene about luring Raine outside and dealing with her parents. Irene didn’t disappoint. Irene made sure that all of Raine’s family members had issues with their traveling documents. So, they all failed to come and pick her up.

At the same time, someone was bribed to pass some information to Raine and loosen the security. That gave access to Raine to leave the hospital. Even the person who was tailing Briar was someone that Irene knew well. That’s how it was easy for them to spot who was following her back then.

Anyway, to irk Raine and make sure that she comes out, Briar used several baits; the wedding and the pregnancy.

Understanding Raine’s way of thinking and seeing how she was more or like her, in terms of being overly obsessed. Anything that comes in the way between her and her beloved is a stumbling block.

Raine would surely be pissed off. And surely it worked. In order to make things easy for Raine, to make her find her easily, Briar generously exposed the address of where they would be on that day when she was stabbed.

Surely Raine took the bait and came over. When Briar was shopping with her mother-in-law, she received a message from Irene, who informed her that Raine was around and nearby.

To give Raine a chance to attack and get it over with, she excused herself and went to the restroom. Surely Raine followed and didn’t disappoint her at all.

During the provocation in the restroom, Briar’s goal was to force Raine’s hand, and the goal was achieved.

"Do you know how happy I was when I learnt that I was pregnant? Honestly, I was very happy and for a moment I wanted to see this child coming to life as well, but alas .... Haha," Briar couldn’t help but laugh dryly recalling the sad news she received from Mammy Adonai.

Her body, despite taking so many herbs all those years, her womb was still the same. She even got her womb checked by Bertha, and the results were the same. Her womb wouldn’t be able to hold the fetus for a long time. In other words, the child was doomed to be aborted if she wanted to live.

Even if she tried to take a chance of carrying the baby, it wouldn’t be carried to full term and the child might be born but wouldn’t survive. Even if the baby survived, there wouldn’t be any guarantee that the baby would grow up well.

At the end of the day, the only option still remained; get rid of her baby. However, Briar, being a bit crazy in the head, wanted her baby to go with a bang or in this case, help her achieve something even though others wouldn’t agree with her on that.

But after the many things she had done, what else couldn’t she do?

She would spend the rest of her life atoning for her sins.

To summarize what happened in the restroom, Briar provoked Raine into insanity and got stabbed brutally so that there wasn’t any hope of saving the baby, which was yet in the forming stage.

No one would understand the anguish she felt before and after that day, but some things needed to be done.

Perhaps in her next life, she wouldn’t love a man so crazily to do the crazy actions she committed in this current life, but for now, she would continue on her path.

Without him, perhaps she wouldn’t be the kind of person she was. Logan made her curb her dark desires and thoughts. For his sake, because she wanted to be seen as a good person by him and the children, Briar did her best to become a good person.

Without him, Briar wouldn’t live. That was one fact she knew for sure.

Anyway, she didn’t see herself committing any more sins after that last move. She promised that before the incident. She wanted to live her life the right way, or at least without harming herself and those who are around her.

After making that confession, Briar exhaled a turbid breath before looking at Raine with a relieved smile.

At this point, Raine was at a loss for words. What she had listened to that day was simply so shocking and felt unreal.

Briar, after making that confession, was ready to go. So, she rose to her feet while looking at Raine and suddenly said smilingly, "If you dare reveal that to any single soul or a ghost, darling, I will turn you into a ghoul or goblin and make you work dirty for me for the rest of your eternal life!" threatening the other in the politest way she could ever come up with.

Raine’s body trembled, lips quivering as she imagined the ghouls and goblins that Briar was talking about. Being someone born in her country, how couldn’t she know about the dark sides of the spiritualists?
