Chapter 22 Chapter 22: Stacy Is Revealed
Alana looked at the two shameless things.
He said he wanted to make up for Susie and regrated his mistakes in every word and deed. But he deliberately blackened the Murray family on today's good day.
Alana's chest was tight. When she thought that her baby daughter was spoiled by such a bastard, she was upset. She covered her chest and gasped for air.
Susie was the first to notice that something was wrong with Alana and hugged Alana's arm quickly.
"Grandma, what's wrong with you?" Susie reached out her hand, stroked her back, to smooth Alana's breath.
Alana's tears fell, and she hugged Susie. "Susie." Her poor child, how could she be so miserable?
Susie said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid. I am here. I am with Grandma."
Ryan rushed off to get medicine for Alana, but the party, which had just returned to normal, was disturbed again.
The crowd looked at the Murray family and then at Andrew and Stacy, kneeling and crying.
"They must be deliberate. Knowing the child's birthday, they chose such a time."
"Hey, not necessarily. Look how poor they are."
Someone who knew the inside story said, "Andrew is not good either."
Bishop's family case was still under investigation. It still needed to be released, so fewer people knew about it.
Another person said, "It can't be completely blamed on him. His unborn child was killed, so he did not hold back his temper. That is understandable."
After all, every parent had the impulse to beat up children.
No matter what, Andrew was also Susie's birth father.

Michael was impatient and gritted his teeth, "Why not throw out this kind of people?"
The last time he beat Andrew up like that, he didn't think he would dare to come.
Martin said faintly, "Throwing them out directly is not enough."
Initially, he wanted to solve the problem after Susie's birthday, but he expected the two to deliver elsewhere.
Colt had gone to get the evidence.
That day, when they found Susie, her first words were, 'Susie didn't push anyone.' He would never allow Susie to be labeled as such.
Andrew cried on his knees for so long, only to find no one paid attention to him.
The Murray family's eyes were cold, and the other guests watched like a good show.
He could only look at Susie, remorseful, "Susie, you forgive dad. You killed your brother, so I am so impulsive. Dad usually is not like this." Andrew said while looking at Susie, thinking that Susie should not dare to speak because she used to say nothing.
Who knew that Susie would calmly say, "Dad, you're lying."
Andrew's expression stiffened, "I didn't lie."
Susie said, "Daddy used to hit me."
Andrew was annoyed, thinking Susie was too uncooperative.
"I'm your father, Susie." Andrew gritted his teeth darkly.
Martin took the dossier from Colt's hand and sneered, "It's not clear whether you're Susie's father."
On Colt's shoulder stood a parrot who was very scared because it saw so many people, so it flew again to Susie's shoulder.
The crowd was wondering what Martin was doing.
Martin took the file, tapping his long fingers together, and asked, "Stacy, you said Susie pushed you and caused you to miscarry, right?"
Stacy, hanging her head and pretending to cry, had no reason to panic. She choked out, "I don't blame Susie. She's just so insecure."
Martin sneered, "Did you think that the Bishop family had no surveillance at the time of the incident, so you were unscrupulous?"
Stacy, dumbfounded, "Mr. Murray, what did you say? I can't understand your meaning."
Martin glanced at the parrot, "Susie, bring Alex over here."
Susie obediently hugged Alex over, "Alex, it is fine. Uncle doesn't eat birds."
Martin gave a beat, and his cold, hard face eased a little.
Stacy subconsciously glanced at the parrot. The parrot immediately fluttered its wings, beak quacking. "Don't come over. There are vicious dogs. There are vicious dogs."
Stacy squeezed out a smile, "What's this?"
To her surprise, the parrot's following line imitated Stacy's voice and intonation.
[Auntie is already very poor. When your uncles ask you, you say you pushed me. Did you hear me?]
[You are disobedient. Do you believe me to beat you again?]
Stacy froze.
The damn bird had said everything she had said to Susie that day, word for word.
The crowd also froze. They didn't know what was happening yet, but this parrot's tone was the same as Stacy's.
Was there more to Stacy's miscarriage?
Stacy's eyes reddened, and she looked at Martin as she saw the skeptical looks from the crowd.
"You suspect me of framing Susie, don't you? But it's my flesh and blood in my belly. Why would I risk my life and the baby's to frame Susie? What good would it do me? You can't suspect me like this just based on a bird. I'm already sad and upset without my baby." Stacy said and cried with a wail.
Martin straightened his tie and said coldly, "Good actress."
Once he was done, Colt immediately projected the flash drive's contents.
In the video stood Stacy with a big belly, and Susie held a rabbit. Susie was wearing an old, pilling pajama set, half a meter away from Stacy. Suddenly Stacy fell backward and fell down herself.
The video was clear that Susie didn't touch Stacy at all.
Stacy was stunned. No way. The Bishop family had no surveillance, so where did this video come from?
Andrew was even more shocked than Stacy when he saw this video. What did it mean? Susie didn't even push Stacy? Andrew turned his head and slapped Stacy right in the face.
"What's going on here?"
Stacy covered her face and was at a loss for words. "I don't know. I'm so messed up. I don't remember anything."
Martin said, "If you don't remember, I'll help you remember it well."
He took a copy of the material from the file and threw it in Stacy's face.
"Your miscarriage was premeditated, and the two hemorrhages during the surgery were faked."
The material was a notice that a physician was penalized for accepting money to help Stacy fake cases.
Human and physical evidence, plus bird evidence, were there.
Stacy no longer had a chance to explain, and her body was paralyzed on the ground.
