Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 423
Advertisement
Rebecca couldn't still believe it and continued to ask, "Why does her face turn pale if her blood is pure?"
Rebecca saw that a nurse was cleaning and bandaging Avery's wound on her big toe. The porcelain vase cut Avery, but it was the deep wound, just a few drops of blood could be seen. It wasn't a big deal.
"She has low blood sugar and is frightened. So…" the doctor then said, "take the medicine box here. Not a big deal. I will give her a nutrition shoot, and then she will wake up soon."
Evan stared at the nurse who was carefully pinching a small piece of porcelain for Avery and cleaned her wound with iodine. Evan felt relaxed. He knew Avery was a courageous woman. Once upon a time, Avery had torn the head of a snake with her bare hand. Evan believed that Avery wasn't dead because of two poisonous spiders.
When the nurse put the powdered medicine on Avery's wound, she woke up gradually because of the pain.
Avery tried to open their eyes. Looking at the light on the top, she was dizzy.
"Am I still alive?" Avery asked herself.
The first person that Avery saw was Evan, a handsome face. Then she recalled the last calling that she called and turned her face back to another side.
Rebecca was standing beside Evan. She was angry about what she had done. She had tried everything to get Evan, but she failed. Rebecca tried to pretend to be excited and turned to Evan, "Evan, Avery wakes up. Everything is ok. I'm just scared."
Hearing Rebecca's voice, Avery looked up at her surprisingly. She laughed and said, "I am still alive. You must be disappointed."
"Me?" Rebecca was surprised, "How could I wish you would die? Avery, do you think I put two poisonous spiders into this room?"

Rebecca asked as if she did nothing wrong.
Avery still stared at her and asked sneeringly, "Isn't it?"
"Avery, I know there are some misunderstandings between us."
Rebecca then said innocently, "I know you are probably angry at me because I will get married to Evan. I understand. But I can't admit that I do something that I didn't do. You can ask anyone among the servants. I had never raised spiders."
One of the servants immediately answered, "That's correct. Princess had never raised any animals."
"Moreover, you had lived in the presidential palace. Have you ever seen spiders? Since there are many plants in the presidential palace, it is common to see some insects," Rebecca added.
Avery was angry and interrupted her, "Yes? Is it you who picked the phone for Evan? Do you still remember what you said?"
Avery remembered that Rebecca told her to call Evan tomorrow and then hung up. She tried to call again, but the phone turned off.
When Evan knew Avery had sought help from him, he felt agitated. Although Avery had asked help from him, he didn't answer the call and knew nothing. If the vase broke, he couldn't find Avery until tomorrow.
Evan was deeply regretful.
"I…. I don't know it's you…" Rebecca answered.
She knew there was a calling record in Evan's phone, so she had to argue that she didn't realize it was Avery.
Rebecca added, "It is an unknown number. Moreover, your voice wasn't clear. I couldn't hear you. I thought it was a harassing call, so I hung up. Can it be the evidence?"
Avery still stared at Rebecca. She knew Rebecca had a detailed plan.
"But you told me Evan had slept," Avery said and then raised her eyebrows, turning to look at Evan and saying, "Mr. Howel, had you slept at that time?"

Evan was shocked by the question. It is a good question.
If Evan admits he had slept, it means that he had slept with Rebecca.
If Evan denies, it means that Rebecca told lies. Evan couldn't set Rebecca in a dilemma because Diana was still in danger.
Now Rebecca was nervous.
Rebecca didn't know what Evan would do and whether Evan would help her.
Rebecca tried to evade Evan.
Avery stared at Evan, waiting for his answer. She knew Evan's answer because he had helped Diana and gave up on her.
Avery was disappointed.
But Evan didn't give a direct answer. Unexpectedly, he turned to Rebecca, saying, "I wanted to have a few words with Avery. Please leave the room."
Rebecca was also astonished. She was afraid that Avery and Evan got a chance to communicate with each other, but she had no choice. She had to go.
Followed by the doctor and the nurse, Rebecca was going to leave, but Avery stopped her, "I don't want to have a conversation with Mr. Howel," Avery sat up and said to Rebecca, "Couldn't you please have a few words with me, Miss. Arlington?"
Evan was shocked. He never expected that Avery would refuse him.
"Evan, you can leave first. I will make a detailed explanation for Avery. Otherwise, Avery will be in terror when she lives there."
Evan looked at Avery and tried to get something, but he failed. Therefore, Evan immediately left the room.
The door closed, and everyone left except Avery and Rebecca. At that time, the atmosphere became tense.
"What do you want to say to me?" Rebecca asked. She was sitting before Avery, narrowing her eyes and looking at Avery innocently.
Avery didn't mean to veil something, so she said directly, "I heard that Miss. Arlington got Glanzmann. Is it true?"
Rebecca then subconsciously looked at Avery's belly.
Now Avery knew Rebecca had a plan. She knew Avery's cord blood could heal her sickness, but she still wanted to kill Avery. She would like to kill Avery even if Avery could save her.
Avery now understood Rebecca's love for Evan. She would like to do everything to get her loved one.
Rebecca calmed down and laughed, saying, "It is not a secret. I got this disease when I was young."
Rebecca needed Avery's cord blood, but Avery had lived there, and it was an excellent chance to kill her. Rebecca couldn't wait to kill Avery a few months later.
