Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 114

---- Chapter 114, Just then, a nurse wheeled Alice out.

Alice looked as pale as a ghost.

The moment she spotted Carmen, tears spilled down her cheeks.

Mom..." Carmen's heart broke as she pulled Alice into her arms.

"Alice, you can try for another baby later." Alice gave a faint smile.

"Yeah, there'll be other chances.

Stop being mad at Grace.

Ijust slipped.

It wasn't her fault." Carmen's blood boiled at how Alice was still defending Grace, even now.

"Enough! Quit covering for her! She turned out like this because you've always let her get away with everything!" She held Alice close, shooting Grace a look of pure disgust.

" Grace, you're completely out of your mind.

Iwas going to lock you up at the Lambert residence, but you've outdone yourself this time.

I'm having you committed to a psychiatric hospital.

Maybe that'll finally knock some sense into you!" Grace locked eyes with Alice, who was slumped against Carmen's shoulder.

The corners of Alice's mouth twitched ever so slightly.

Alice had bribed the doctors to fake the miscarriage.

Every move had been carefully staged for this exact moment.

Grace was done for, and as far as Alice was concerned, it served her right.

---- Her tears flowed harder as she gazed up at Yancey.

"I'm so sorry, Yancey.

I couldn't protect our baby." Yancey stood there, stunned.

The pregnancy had blindsided him, and now,, the loss left him hollow.

Without thinking, he pulled her into his arms. Her sobs twisted something inside him, but it was not enough.
