Rayna tugged at the lock a few more times in panic.

At that moment, the assailant—a woman—had already gotten back on her feet, drenched from head to toe. In the next second, she charged toward Rayna with the knife.

“Give me back my child, Rayna!”

Unable to dodge the woman this time, Rayna could only grab the woman to protect herself against the knife.

The moment she looked up, she realized why the voice sounded so familiar. It turned out that her assailant was an acquaintance.

Her expression turned gloomy. “It’s you, Selena.”

“Give me my child! Give it back to me!” Selena screamed with a gaze full of hatred. She was in a disheveled state as she struggled, wanting to stab the knife into Rayna’s body.

Rayna gripped Selena’s hand tightly and scoffed, “You’re the one who lost your child. What’s it got to do with me?”

Selena’s lips trembled as she hissed at Rayna, “You dragged me to the hospital last time and gave me a fright. I wouldn’t have lost my child if not for you!”

The child had been fine in her belly. She even took good care of it. However, about two weeks ago, she suddenly felt a stabbing pain in her belly and passed out.

When she next woke up, she saw a sighing Emma and a doctor hovering over her.

According to the doctor, Selena had undergone a terrible shock which caused a miscarriage. Upon hearing that, she bawled her eyes out and drowned herself in sorrow for a few days until she recalled the incident where Rayna hired someone to kidnap her and bring her to the hospital for an abortion.

If not for Rayna, I wouldn’t have gotten such a shock. I wouldn’t have lost my precious baby!

The thought of her baby’s death made her hate Rayna even more.

She exerted more force to bring the knife down. “Rayna, I’m going to make you pay with your life!”

Rayna was not afraid of her. Instead, she taunted, “Have you forgotten how you got pregnant? How dare you use such lowly methods to get a baby? Even the heavens can’t accept it!”

Selena let out a few ear-piercing screams, provoked by Rayna’s words. “I’m going to kill you! I’ll kill you!”
