My Evil Cinderella: Taming a Villainous Wife Chapter 97 - Please trust me

When Shi Enxi saw that Lu Mello was just staring blankly at her, her heart was full of anguish.

"I have a medical certificate with me. If you think that I forged it, then we can go and see the doctor. We can go to any hospital you want, I am not lying. I'm pregnant and you're the father."

Upon hearing her, Lu Mello recalled the time in his previous life where Shi Enxi called him and told him the same thing. She was pregnant and he was the father.

Although, that was a lie... He wasn't the father at all.

"If... If you're going to leave me... Then... I'm going to abort this child!" Shi Enxi threatened him.

The side of Lu Mello's lips curled up into a ridiculing smile, "Why am I not surprised? If you can kill your brother, my sister... How much more an innocent child? Aren't you a murderer since the beginning? A ruthless, cruel murderer."

Her hold on him loosened after hearing his cold words. She felt her heart was being squeezed so badly. His every word was stabbing her like a knife.

Every word she said to him was being twisted. Why? Why was he not believing her? No matter what she told him, he just won't believe her.

Lu Mello opened the door of the car, he looked at her. "Get in."

When she heard his words, she looked at him in hope that he was finally believing her.

His blank stare squelched that hope on her chest. 

"are you... Are you going to take me to the hospital?"

Lu Mello didn't give her an answer, he just stared at her as if waiting for her to get in.

Shi Enxi's lips were stretched into a thin line. She didn't want him to leave him but at that moment, she was also afraid to go with him since he was not telling her where they would go. What if he brought her to the police station?

She is innocent.

She clenched her fists tight. She was afraid that... No one would believe her. What if... No one will believe her?

What kind of evidence did Lu Mello have for him to suspect her?

Fine. He can bring her wherever he wants, even to the hospital. If she tried to run away, Lu Mello would only doubt her more so she has to prove that she was innocent.

Shi Enxi went in the car and Lu Mello closed the door after. He headed to the driver's seat and drove out of the place.

They were both quiet the whole way, Lu Mello didn't say a word while Shi Enxi did the same. No matter how much she tried to convince him, he wouldn't listen.

They shortly arrived at the hospital where the woman's body was brought.

Lu Mello had to confirm that the body really belonged to his sister. Aside from that, he wanted to observe Shi Enxi's reaction.

Lu Mello's heart was pounding loudly when he saw the body covered by a white cloth on the table.

He was afraid to see the body... What if... What if the woman was really his sister?

Shi Enxi didn't expect that Lu Mello would bring her there. She saw how Lu Mello was hesitating on seeing the body.

He was scared... 

Shi Enxi looked at the body on the table. She did not kill Lu Weichun, neither did she order someone to do it.

Yes, she didn't like her but she didn't hate her as well.

Lu Mello was preparing for the worse when Shi Enxi decided to walk and pull the covering.

"Shi Enxi!" Lu Mello was surprised by what she did.

Shi Enxi ignored him, she stared at the body in front of her.

The face has so many wounds, making the woman unrecognizable but the woman's body frame was the same as Lu Weichun's. 

"W-Weichun..." Lu Mello took a step closer, his eyes were filled with tears.

"No, it's not her."

Lu Mello was startled by what she suddenly said.

"Look closely. The length of her hair is not right. It's an inch shorter than Lu Weichun's hair length." She touched the hair, her red and puffy eyes narrowed, "Weichun's hair was curled earlier. Even if it got wet, there should be at least have a bit of wave."

The length of the hair? How the hell would he know the length of his sister's hair when it has been a while since he last saw her?

"Are you sure... Are you sure that she's not Weichun?"

Shi Enxi nodded. "I'm pretty sure it's not her. You can run a DNA test if you want."

"Look at her nails, Weichun has small nails but this woman has long nails."

Now that she mentioned it, Lu Mello realized that Shi Enxi was right. The body frame and hair color may be similar but the tiny details such as the size of the nails were a big advantage to tell if the person was the same or not.

Shi Enxi finally turned to Lu Mello, "I didn't kill her, Mello. I am innocent. Even if it's hard... Please believe me. I will never do something that will make you hate me."

Whoever was trying to frame her, Shi Enxi wouldn't forgive that person. 

Hope filled Lu Mello's heart, hope that his sister could still be alive. As for Shi Enxi, even if he wanted to believe her words, Lu Weichun's last words were ringing in his ears.

"She told me that it was you."

"Huh?"

"Lu Weichun called me and told me that it was you."

Shi Enxi gritted her teeth tight. Why? Why would Lu Weichun tell him that she was trying to kill her?

"If it was me, I will not be dumb enough to let her know that I am after her life. I believe that Weichun must be trying to say something related to me." 

She reached out and held his hands, "Please trust me. I really am telling the truth, Mello."
