139 Chapter 139: I Didn’t Push Her

Savannah hurriedly ran down the stairs. Valerie was lying on the ground, her face pale. Under her wide maternity dress, a stream of red blood ran out from her legs.

"Valerie!" Devin's exclamation came.

The people in the living room followed the sound and ran over to the stairs. The scene took their breath away.

"Valerie! What's the matter?" Susan went weak at the knees when she saw the blood under Valerie's body, sinking down next to her body.

"Devin… Susan… It was Savannah who pushed me down the stairs…" Valerie lay dying in Devin's arms, pointing to her cousin with a shaky finger.

It was then that Savannah had realized the plan: Valerie had planned to fall down the stairs to frame Savannah!

But why would Valerie do this? If she suffered from a miscarriage, she would lose more than she could gain. Was it worth it to frame her? Wasn't her baby more important?

Susan rushed towards Savannah.

"You bitch! You are heartless! You've hurt your cousin and her unborn baby!"

Before her hand could smack across Savannah's cheek, it was stopped in midair.

"We don't know that that's the truth. What's the hurry? Valerie said she was pushed down by Savannah, but it was only her side of the story," Dylan stopped her, his eyes cold.

"It must be the bitch --" Susan struggled to break away from Dylan so she could strike out at Savannah.

At this moment, Valerie whined in Devin's arms from pain, "Devin... My body aches... My baby, our baby…"

Devin was white as a sheet, genuinely afraid. This baby was his saving grace, and it could not have any accident!

"Be quiet!" Old Sterling first came to his senses and shouted, "send Valerie to the hospital first!"

Then people in confusion recovered to themselves and rushed to carry Valerie out of the villa. Valerie was laid across the back of the car, and Abby got behind the wheel with Susan, still weeping, in the front seat.

Old Sterling was worried about his great-grandson. He wanted to go to the hospital, too but was stopped by Cooper.

"Sir, Mr. Yontz, and Mr.Sterling can get things figured out. You can just stay at home. I will alert you the moment any news comes," advised Cooper.

Old Sterling nodded and didn't follow the car. Cooper feared that old Sterling was about to have a heart attack after such a mess; he helped old Sterling to the room and gave him some medicine.

The Sterling's house, for a moment, was empty.

Savannah, with a blank mind, was led out of the Sterling house by Dylan.

Although Dylan didn't want to pay much attention to Devin's case, it was now related to this little woman, and he knew he had to help her.

"I didn't push her downstairs --" said Savannah nervously.

He could hear her voice trembling. Frowning a little, he took his right hand off the steering wheel, holding her cold hand tight.

"I know. I'm here."

I know, it stood for trust.

I'm here, for protection.

As if protected by a powerful force, Savannah felt a little better.

Devin sat outside the room Valerie had been brought into when a doctor finally came out.

"Doctor, how's the baby?" asked Devin impatiently.

The doctor frowned when he saw that Devin was only worried about the baby and did not care about the pregnant woman at all, "I'm sorry, sir. Your wife is bleeding heavily, and the baby is dead. She's going to make a full recovery, however," she said, sounding apologetic.

Devin didn't care whether Valerie lived or died. When he heard that the baby died, he fell back into his chair, his eyes wide, and mumbled, "The baby is gone, the baby is gone... "

The only thing that would please his grandfather was gone.

And would his grandpa take back the 10% stock?

Susan, seated on a bench by Abby, rose up and turned on Savannah wildly, "You bitch! You killed the baby! Why are you so wicked? How can such evil possibly exist?"

Before she touched Savannah, she was stopped by a human wall again.

Looking up, Susan ran into Dylan's cold gaze!

There was something powerful in his eyes that made Susan shuddered.

"Dylan, are you still protecting her? She killed Valerie's baby! That baby is related by blood to you too. It is your nephew's child!" Susan cried.

"I didn't push her! She fell downstairs herself!" Savannah shouted from behind Dylan.

She did not have the opportunity to explain when everyone was busy getting Valerie to the hospital in the Sterlings' house.

But now, she wanted to prove her innocence. She could not be wronged!

"Ha! Did Valerie fell downstairs herself on purpose? You can't make a lie like that. Why did Valerie do that? What's in it for her? Do you think she'd risk a miscarriage just to frame you? Do you think Valerie is an idiot? Or perhaps you think that we are all idiots?" laughed Susan.

Savannah clenched her fists. She didn't know why Valerie did it, but that was the truth. She took a deep breath and pushed out her lips, stiffly, "I didn't push her."

Susan was infuriated by her denial. "You don't admit it? Well," she pulled Abby over, "Abby was present just now, and she certainly saw it! Abby, tell us, didn't that bitch push Valerie down?"

All eyes were on Abby.

Abby was as pale as paper all the way to the hospital. Persuaded by Susan and her hatred of Savannah, she reacted, looking straight at Savannah, and nodded.

"Yes... I saw... It was Savannah who pushed Valerie down the stairs."

Savannah couldn't believe Abby said that, but she was not surprised.

Abby adored Dylan and considered her a rival in love. Certainly, she would go against her when she had an opportunity.

"Dylan! You heard it. Abby saw that! Do you still want to help this bitch?" Susan jumped to her feet, angrily.

"Are you sure you saw that?" Dylan looked coldly at Abby.

"Yes…" Abby dared not look into Dylan's burning gaze.
