Seeing Rosalie approaching her with a knife in her hand, Dorothy quickly propped herself up and climbed out of the bed, dodging the knife. She had her back against the wall and said with a sneer, "Rosalie, you always failed in our fighting. Even if I'm pregnant now, do you think it would be that easy to kill me?"
"Do you think I'm that stupid? Credence would only see me as a vicious person if I kill you."
Rosalie waved the knife in her hand and laughed triumphantly. All of a sudden, she thrust the sharp knife into her abdomen, stabbing it two inches deep.
Bright, red blood spurted out from the wound on her abdomen. Her white dress was instantly stained red. It was a ghastly sight.
At that point, Dorothy finally understood everything.
Rosalie had always hated the color white. She had chosen to wear a white dress to the ward, so that Credence would notice her miserable condition immediately, making Dorothy the scapegoat.
After figuring out Rosalie's ulterior motive, Dorothy curled her lips into a sneer.
With such poor acting, Credence could easily see through Rosalie if he paid a little more attention to details.
However, Credence had never had his eyes on Dorothy. It was inevitable for Dorothy to be made the scapegoat for hurting Rosalie.
To Credence, Dorothy's interference had caused him to be separated from his lover. He had always regarded Dorothy as a selfish and heartless woman who tore him and Rosalie apart.
Now that Rosalie was injured, things would only get worse. She would now become someone who attempted murder.
While in a trance, Dorothy heard Rosalie scream.
"No matter how despicable I am, I'm no match for you!" Rosalie glared at Dorothy, who had lived under the same roof with her for 23 years. She did not hide the intense hatred and jealousy in her eyes. "You're more obedient and beautiful than me. Not only that, you're smart and did well at school. Just because you were born three years earlier than me, I had to carry immense pressure to do better than you. Despite I'm Mom and Dad's biological daughter, outsiders seemed to only recognize you, the adopted daughter! How ridiculous!"
"I bet until now, you still have no idea how I found out that you were pregnant, right?"
"Let me tell you then. When you went home last Saturday, Mom noticed that you vomited out of the blue. She casually voiced out her suspicion that you're pregnant and I happened to hear that. Therefore, I went all out and bribed the hospital director to issue a fake paternity test report to Credence..."
Rosalie was so exhilarated that she laughed out loud. As a result, the wound on her abdomen split open even more. Blood was gushing out at an even faster speed.
She groaned in pain, covering the wound with her hand. Then, she smiled proudly and said, "Dorothy, this is my revenge on you for trying to steal Credence away from me. Not only I want you to be abandoned by Credence, but also for your reputation to be ruined!"
Suddenly, the door was slammed open. A tall figure walked in.
