Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 223

Chapter 223 Murderer

I struggled out of Zack's embrace, only to see Leonard and Amelia standing at the door.

Amelia had been shadowing Leonard-wherever he went, she was always close behind.

Zack pulled out a tissue, gently wiping away my tears before stepping in front of me, shielding me from them.

"What's the murderer doing here?" he spat.

Leonard froze for a moment and then broke into a smile. "I don't know who I'm supposed to have killed. Don't go throwing accusations around carelessly." Amelia's expression remained cold and detached as she chimed in, "That baby was going to be gone anyway. We all knew that."

Her face was pale, and her gaze chilled as it rested on me.

I stared at her, then at Leonard. I barked, "Get out."

Whether or not his memory was messed up, I didn't want to see him.

Zack was right-he was a murderer. He had killed our baby. Even if the baby wasn't going to make it, Leonard's actions were what sealed its fate.
