Chapter 980
From her reaction, everyone knew that what Anastasia said was true.
“How could someone like her exist!” Emily exclaimed in disgust.
To fake a pregnancy and then use it to frame someone else it was a level of malice that was hard to comprehend.
Anastasia calmly continued, “After I discovered this, I couldn’t understand it. Why would you fake a pregnancy, Mrs. Young? Was it simply to win Mr. Lancaster’s sympathy, to get back to his side and continue living your old life? That seems plausible enough p>
A flicker of hope appeared in Susan’s eyes. She was about to confess to that motive, but before she could speak, Anastasia went on.
“But why use this non-existent child to frame me? Was it really, as you claimed, just to make me feel indebted to you? Puzzled by this, I accidentally stumbled upon a very big secret p>
At these words, a cold dread washed over Susan, and sweat beaded on her back.
“What… what are you talking about… What secret could I possibly have p>
Anastasia’s smile was laced with ice. “Yes, what is this secret you’ve worked so hard to hide? But I won’t be the one to reveal it. I think it would be more persuasive coming from your ex-husband p>
The mention of Boris made Susan’s face contort in horror.
Why would she bring up Boris? Could Anastasia really know p>
But she quickly forced herself to calm down. No, Boris wouldn’t get the chance to speak. The people she had sent should have already p>
“Susan, you bitch p>
A familiar voice, filled with hatred and viciousness, suddenly echoed through the room.
Susan whipped her head around to see Boris, who should have been anywhere but here, storming through the doorway.
Susan’s mind went blank with a deafening roar.
How could this be? How was Boris here p>
“You’re probably thinking, ‘Shouldn’t he be dead? Why is he here?’ Right?” Anastasia’s soft voice floated over.
Susan’s head snapped up, her eyes locking onto Anastasia as her body trembled. “You p>
Anastasia gestured for her men to restrain the enraged Boris.
“Anastasia, what in the world is going on?!” Emily demanded.
Everyone else was just as confused. What was happening? Who was this man? And why was Susan so terrified of him?
Anastasia sat down next to the bewildered Lady Lancaster and began to explain. “Grandma, this man Boris Susan’s ex-husband. was just released from prison
short while ago p>
“I happened to see Susan meeting with him secretly one day, and it seemed like they were hiding something p>
“Later, I noticed Susan acting very strangely. It appeared Boris was blackmailing her, and she was constantly giving him money p>
“I was just curious at first, so I had someone look into it. I never expected to uncover such a huge secret p>
Boris had been in hiding for days, and it had taken her people a great deal of effort to find him. He hadn’t been willing to cooperate at first, but then Susan had sent men to kill him. If her people hadn’t been following him, Boris would be dead by now.
Knowing that Susan had tried to have him murdered, Boris was filled with rage and fear. With no reason to protect her any longer, he had vengefully told Anastasia everything.
“Boris told me that after giving birth to Crystal, Susan had a medical condition that required her to have her uterus removed. Therefore she is completely incapable of having children p>
