Chapter 178

Ben asked lightly, “So, you bribed the physician a day earlier because you knew that Susan would push Penelope. and that you would have a miscarriage in order to help her?”

“I…” Isabella’s face turned even paler.

After a long time, she gritted her teeth.

Although there was nothing she could do to defend herself at the moment, Penelope would never regain consciousness. Moreover, Susan couldn’t defend herself. If Isabella insisted that it wasn’t her, who could force her to admit it?

“Anyway, I did not push Penelope,” Isabella said, “No matter what you say, I will never admit it.”

Ben sneered. “Do you think it makes any difference whether you admit it or not? What you did is horrible enough for the police to intervene in it. What’s the point of denying it when the professionals will eventually prove it?”

Isabella’s face fell immediately.

It was true that the court only considered the evidence.

It didn’t matter whether she admitted it or not!

Ben had already found out so much about her. If the police were to investigate, they would only be able to find more evidence against her.

It would be the end of her!

Not only would her reputation be ruined, but what was even more terrifying was that this was a serious crime of murder and framing. She might end up in prison for life.

A trace of fear finally flashed across Isabella’s eyes.

She knelt in front of Leo quickly and cried in remorse, “Leo, you can’t call the police, you can’t! I’m your wife. If I’m sentenced to go to jail, you will also be affected.”

Leo gritted his teeth. “So, you really hurt my mother…”

Isabella cried even harder immediately. “Yes, it was me, but everything I did was for you.”

“For me?” Leo looked at her somewhat in disbelief.

Isabella cried and said, “I was wrong. My biggest mistake is that I love you too much. I love you so much. I shouldn’t have lost my basic values because of how much I love you.”

“You…” Leo was a little shaken by Isabella’s words.

“Leo, this woman harmed your mother!” Charlie reminded him from the side.

“I didn’t want to, I really didn’t want to.” Isabella cried and said, “At that time, Penelope didn’t agree to me marrying Leo. But I love Leo too much and want to marry him too much. So, in order to marry him, I could only pretend to be pregnant to marry into the Landor family.”

Isabella looked at Leo tearfully. “Leo, I’m sorry, I lied to you. But I really… love you so much.”

Leo started to waver.

He looked at Isabella with pity in his eyes.

Yes, although it was Isabella’s fault, she did it all for him!

Alas, she loved him so much. Even if she had done something wrong, why couldn’t he forgive her?

Charlie couldn’t stand it anymore. He said angrily, “Leo! Your mother is still lying on the hospital bed!”

“Grandpa,” Isabella cried and said, “I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. I pretended to be pregnant and married into the Landor family, but I couldn’t just make up a baby on my own. I was worried that Leo would divorce me if he found out that I wasn’t pregnant. I was anxious. I had no choice but to come up with such a bad idea. At that time, I just wanted to create an accident so that I could pretend to have a miscarriage. I didn’t expect that ! would accidentally harm Penelope and that she had already hurt her head before so she fell into a coma. I… I was worried that Leo would divorce me if he found out that I was the one who made Penelope like this. I was confused,, so I tried to frame Monica! It’s all my fault.
