Before entering the ward, he saw Larissa in a corner, wiping away her tears.


    Who else could have made her cry but Prisci?


    It was so typical of Prisci. She always spewed venom, acting all bitter, as if everyone owed her.


    Hearing his words, Prisci looked behind ude and saw Larissa, who was crying pitifully.


    “ude, don’t me Prisci. It had nothing to do with her. I … got something in my eye. That’s all.”


    Her exnation further enraged ude.


    He furrowed his brows even more tightly. “Prisci, enough with your dirty schemes. Hear me clearly-the Wilburn family doesn’t owe you anything, especially not Larissa.”


    “ude, say no more. Prisci’s pregnant…” Larissa tugged at his arm. “Besides, it was my fault. I knew she was pregnant, yet I still insisted Wes celebrate my birthday. She’s hospitalized because of me…”


    Saying this, she started to cry again.


    Trying her best not to snap, Prisci clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.


    She didn’t want to argue. It’d only piss her off even more.


    But ude still wouldn’t let go. “Yeah, she’s pregnant. So what? That doesn’t mean we have to put up with all her un- reasonable demands.”


    “That’s enough.” Wesley frowned. Though he agreed that Prisci was being unreasonable, ude’s words were un-


    called for.


    ude’s resentment toward Prisci was undisguised. He scoffed, his voice dripping with malice, “Just wait and see. Faking an illness is just her first step. Next, she’ll be using the baby as leverage.


    “She’s such an unreasonable, scheming bitch. I weep for her baby.”


    Prisci had thought Wesley’s distrust shattered her heart, but ude’s words plunged her even deeper into despair.


    Trembling in anger, she grabbed a pillow, hurled it at ude with all her might, and snarled desperately, “Get out!”


    Tears streamed down her eyes, filled with devastation.


    She had never believed ude could be a good brother, but still, he shouldn’t have said this.


    ude knocked the pillow aside. Blinded by fury, he bellowed, “Did I say anything wrong? You vicious bitch, using your baby to fake an illness before it’s even born! Maybe you want it to die inside you!”

    His words were nothing but venomous.


    “I said, enough, ude.” Wesley frowned and nced at ude deeply.


    He was displeased by how unreasonable Prisci was. But, at the end of the day, she was his wife.


    “Didn’t you hear me? Get out!” Prisci’s eyes turned bloodshot. She scrambled off the bed, hurling everything within reach at ude, ring at him as if he were her sworn enemy.


    Wesley swiftly caught her wrist and yanked her toward him, his deep frown revealing his irritation. “Prisci, enough of your nonsense.”


    She went still at once. Tears rolled down her ghastly pale cheeks quietly, the chilling hatred in her crimson eyes enough to kill.


    “You, get out, too.”


    Her light tone was dripping with sarcasm.


    “Prisci.” Wesley was genuinely angry, his tone sterner than ever.


    “Prisci, calm down. Surely, you don’t wanna hurt your baby.” Larissa came over and tried to steady Prisci, her charming eyes filled with worry.


    “Stay away from me.” Prisci pulled her wrist away from Wesley’s grip and shoved Larissa away. She swung her hand too far, which identallynded on the back of Larissa’s hand.


    Larissa let out a small cry, clutching her hand.


    “Prisci!” ude was seething with rage, looking as if he wanted to tear Prisci into pieces. “Larissa just wanted to help. And you hit her?


    “Apologize to her. Now!”


    A searing pain made Prisci’s body tremble slightly, her forehead drenched in sweat.


    She bit her lip hard, stifling any sound of pain.


    “It wasn’t Prisci’s fault. I … should’ve been more careful,” Larissa said pitifully, her doe-like eyes glistening with


    tears.


    “Wes? Aren’t you gonna do something?” ude’s gaze swept from Prisci’s stubborn face to Wesley.
