Lisa was still trying to hit Anna when Joseph arrived. She quickly knew that it was Nick who called him. She glared ferociously at Nick, he felt guilty, but he cautiously said, "Are you okay, Lisa?"

Joseph ignored Anna's plea, then turned to Nick and said coldly, "Nick, take her to the hospital!"

"Who?" Nick Wilson looked at Anna and then looked at Lisa, "Both of them are hurt."

"Anna!" Joseph shouted.

"Well, okay then."

A man usually treasures his loved one. Nick said to himself.

Nick was about to take Anna to the hospital, but he couldn't just leave Lisa. He put his hand out to her and said, "Lisa, let's go together!"

Nick protected Lisa each time Anna tried to attack her, so she didn't really get hurt. Anna was the one who was covered with injuries.

"Joseph, do you know that Anna had killed your baby? Why do you want Nick to take her to the hospital? What the hell are you thinking?"

Lisa shook with rage, then lifted her stick over her head and was about to hit Joseph. Anna saw what Lisa was going to do and pushed Joseph out of the way. She held her arm up to block Lisa's swing.

Joseph was slightly stunned for a moment before coldly yelling, "Get out of here!"

Nick worried about Lisa a lot and quickly apologized to Joseph, "Why don't you take Anna to the hospital, and I will take care of Lisa."

Joseph looked at the angry Lisa, said nothing. He then turned to Anna and asked her to leave with him.

Although Anna was hurt all over, being near Joseph, she didn't feel any pain. She couldn't take her eyes off Joseph's face from the moment they got in the car. She wondered if the wounds on her body made Joseph's heart hurt. Anna touched one of her cuts and let out a painful cry.

Joseph ignored her and continued to look straight ahead, never changing the cold expression on his face.

Anna was unhappy with Joseph's reaction. She couldn't help but complain, "Joseph, don't you know how barbaric Lisa was acting? She hit me all over, no one has ever bullied me like this, except my mother..."

Regardless of what Anna said, Joseph didn't reply. Finally, Anna gave up and sat quietly until they arrived at the hospital.

The sun was just coming up when Joseph pulled into the emergency room parking lot. Anna saw that Kate's nurse was at the doorway, "Joseph, didn't you bring me here to see the doctor? Why…"

Joseph suddenly considered Kate's condition. If he asked Anna to take the blame right now, the news of miscarriage would not be concealed, and Kate would be traumatized.

"Wait here!" While thinking, Joseph said suddenly; his tone was filled with anger.

**

In her room, Kate was lying on the bed, as white as a sheet. Some hair was stuck to her tear-stained cheek. Joseph thought she looked beautiful as he reached out to push her hair back, but suddenly Kate opened her eyes.

There was a split second of confusion when Kate saw Joseph's handsome face. Her eyes filled with anger, and her heart pounded with resentment.

"You are awake?" Joseph looked at her with tender eyes.

Kate glared at him, "Can you not be so deceitful?"

"Deceitful?" Joseph noticed that Kate was extremely emotional, "Kate, what happened? What is wrong?"

"Kate?" He said softly, he had never spoken to her so intimately before, but after everything, she knew it made Kate feel sick to her stomach.

"Mr. Smith, do we know each other that well? Please don't call me Kate!" Kate said.

Joseph didn't know she had cried herself to sleep when he looked into her bloodshot eyes. He pursed his lips to speak, but nothing would come out. He sighed and was then finally able to say, "It's very early in the morning. Try to get some more sleep; we can talk later."

"In order to divorce me, you really will do everything you can!" cried Kate as she looked at Joseph.

"I didn't want to divorce you," He looked at her thoughtfully.

Kate sneered, "Of course, you won't dare mention a divorce. I just don't understand it, though, even after your mistress killed my unborn child!"

"You know about the baby?" Joseph was shocked, "Who told you?"

"Is that important? How long did you plan to hide the truth to me if I didn't find out on my own?" Kate touched her belly, crying and laughing, "If it weren't for the miscarriage, I wouldn't even have known I was pregnant. I am so stupid, no wonder I was constantly being bullied."

She didn't know she was even pregnant. Who told her about the miscarriage? Joseph's heart ached.

"If I knew I was pregnant, I would have desperately protected the child when Anna was fighting with me..." cried, thinking of Anna punching her stomach while she cried out in pain. Kate sobbed even harder, "If it weren't for Anna, my child would be alive!"

Joseph took a deep breath; it felt as if a mountain was crushing him. He was hurt to hear Kate so upset, but he didn't know how to comfort her.

"Joseph Smith, how are you going to rescue her this time? Are you going to say that the child was not yours, and Anna was doing so for your sake?" Kate looked at him with an unsympathetic expression; there was no love in her eyes.

Joseph could feel her anger, and he wondered how she knew everything. Suddenly, he thought of Amy; she really was daring to challenge his authority.

"I didn't want to help her. Since you already know about it, I don't intend to hide it from you," Joseph got up and opened the door. He pointed at Anna and ordered, "Come in!"

Anna looked at Joseph innocently, "Isn't my sister angry with me?"

Joseph didn't say a word. However, Kate clutched her bedsheet in her fist when she heard Anna's voice.

"Well, did you two plan to kill me while I am lying in a hospital bed?"

"No, I... I came to visit you," Anna paid careful attention to her words so that she could not get caught up in her own lies.

"Visit me?" Kate couldn't help but laugh, "What reason do you have to visit me? You killed my unborn child; how are you going to fix that?"
