Chapter 306 The Innocent Baby

Ashley didn't forget that Lena was pregnant. She had been reminding herself to keep a distance from
her. She secretly moved her hand, which was behind her, to press a button on her cell phone.

Lena hadn't noticed Ashley's little trick. She was too excited about completing her plan. 'Just one more
step and Ashley's life will be ruined. I will become Mrs. Lu.'

The thought of replacing Ashley and becoming Andrew's wife already made her too worked up to think
about anything else.

She laughed in her mind as she imagined Ashley becoming the murderer, who killed her sister's unborn
baby out of jealousy.

Ashley would have to deal with being called a murderer for the rest of her life.

It thrilled Lena so much to think about Ashley's miserable future that she could hardly conceal her
excitement.

Without Lena's noticing, Ashley brought her hand back very quickly.

Looking at Lena, Ashley asked, "Miss Mu, can you please tell me why you have blocked my way?"

Ashley's voice had brought Lena's thoughts back to the present. Lena dropped her guard and removed
the fake mask that she wore in front of Andrew and Raymond. She glared arrogantly at Ashley and
said, "Do you really want to know why? Don't worry. You'll know why very soon. I have prepared a big
present for you. It's a present that you'll never forget for the rest of your life."

Lena was in an exceptionally good mood. She glanced at the door to make sure that no one was
coming and continued, "To be honest with you, I'm carrying Raymond's baby." While speaking to her,
she gave Ashley a triumphant look.



She was hoping to see the pain in Ashley's eyes. However, she found nothing. Ashley's expression
remained calm, and there was no hint of jealousy or hurt in her eyes at all.

Ashley had even casually congratulated her.

"Oh, congratulations."

Her tone was so untroubled that it sounded like she was talking about the weather.

Lena smirked, assuming that Ashley was just pretending to be unaffected by the news. She knew how
much Ashley loved and cared about Raymond in the past.

Knowing that Lena was going to have Raymond's baby, she thought that Ashley must be feeling
heartbroken inside.

Lena cracked a winning smile and said, "The doctor told me it was a boy. He's ten weeks old now.
Hmm...I don't know if Raymond would prefer a boy or a girl. But he told me that he would love our baby
no matter what." Smiling, Lena caressed her stomach.

Ashley just looked at her and didn't say a word. She backpedaled a few more steps away from Lena.

Ashley already knew that Lena was pregnant with Raymond's baby. So, hearing it from Lena, Ashley
wasn't surprised at all.

She just wondered why Lena was telling her about the baby right now.

Lena was getting frustrated that Ashley wasn't giving her the reaction that she was expecting. She
raised her voice. "I know you still have feelings for Raymond. But it's too bad. He's with me now, and
we're going to have a baby together soon. Before you came, we were discussing the wedding plans.
When the time comes, I'll make sure to send you an invitation," said Lena rubbing her stomach. She
was trying to provoke Ashley to attack her.



Lena had no intention of keeping the baby. She was using her pregnancy to hurt Ashley's feelings.

"Oh, are you done? Can I go now?" replied Ashley.

Hearing the few words that Ashley just said, Lena realized that she had failed to hurt Ashley's feelings,
even though she was trying so hard. Her face turned gloomy, and it was hideously diabolic. "Ashley, tell
me why! How can you be so calm? Tell me! Isn't he the one whom you have loved so much? How can
you be so composed after knowing that I am having his baby?" she barked hysterically.

Ashley frowned and replied, "What exactly is it that you want? If you don't have anything important to
say, I have to go."

Keeping her eyes on Lena, Ashley tried to pass her and leave. However, Lena wasn't done with her
yet. She still hadn't finished what she was planning to do.

Grabbing Ashley by the arm, Lena yelled, "Stop! You can't leave just yet!"

Ashley looked down at her hand and said, "Let go of me!"

While Ashley was struggling to free herself, Lena pushed her hard to the side. She didn't even know
where she got the strength from to do it. However, it didn't matter.

With a thump, Ashley hit her head on the wall, and she felt a bit dizzy and disoriented.

When Ashley's head had cleared a little, her eyes widened in shock when she saw what Lena was
doing.

"Lena! What are you doing? That's your baby!" Ashley yelled.

Lena was a few feet away from her. She was hitting her stomach with her fists over and over as hard
as she could, without any hesitation.



Ashley had just bumped her head and she still felt dizzy. But she couldn't just sit back and watch Lena
killing her unborn baby in front of her.

She reached out her hands to steady herself against the wall. Ashley staggered to Lena's side,
grabbed hold of her fists and asked, "Do you know what you're doing? You're killing your baby! It's your
baby, Lena!"

Even though Ashley despised Lena, the baby in her stomach was innocent. Ashley could never do
anything to harm the baby.

"Let me go!" shrieked Lena. She managed to push Ashley to the side.

Then she looked at Ashley with wild, crazy eyes. "I know it's my baby! So what? I never fancied
Raymond. I just couldn't stand seeing how much he cared about you. So I took him away from you!

You're nothing more than just a girl that my parents adopted. You don't deserve him! You don't deserve
his care and his heart. Initially, I just wanted to see how much he cared about you. I never thought that
he would mistakenly sleep with me, thinking that it was you.

Do you know what had surprised me the most? That is, in the whole three years that you two dated,
you never spent a night with him. So it was much easier than I had expected to take him away from
you.

But I'm sick of him now. I want to be the wife of the Lu Group's CEO. I want to be Andrew's wife! I am
going to replace you!"

Lena didn't hide her evil ideas at all from Ashley and spoke candidly. Perhaps she thought that Ashley
wouldn't tell anyone. Even if Ashley did say something, no one would believe her, anyway.

Seeing Ashley lying on the ground, Lena looked down on her.



She sneered in her head, 'You're prettier than me. But I'll still win your man over!'

Ashley said, "What about Raymond? Aren't you afraid that he'll come after you when he finds out what
you have done to his baby?"

"Raymond?" scoffed Lena. Smiling cynically, she continued, "He won't find out. Do you seriously think
that he would believe anything you say? Do you think that he would trust you instead of me?"

While Lena spoke, she kept hitting her stomach. Before they had dinner, she had taken a drug that
would cause an abortion. Hitting her stomach was her way of making the scene more horrifying.

Lena frowned due to the pains and cramps that brought on by the abortion drug. Blood began to seep
through her clothes and onto the floor. She could feel sharp pains in her stomach.

Ashley was horrified when she saw the blood. She dragged herself close to Lena and yelled, "That's
enough! Stop it! The baby is innocent! Let him live to see this world!"
