The crowd surged forward , some swinging canes .
The cops held them back .
I ducked behind the officers .
Dont you believe them ? They ignored me , kept coming .
Heartless bitch ! Youre a black widow ! You let your own son die , smiling ! < Kill her ! Avenge the baby ! Send her to hell ! Kill her ! Kill her ! They were using me as an outlet for their grief , their fear .
The cops struggled to contain them .
The lead officer said , Attempted murder is serious .
We have a report .
Come with us .
Dont disrupt the hospital .
He reached for my arm .
I stepped back .
| told you , I didnt do anything .
I ran to the resuscitation room , threw open the doors .
My moment of revenge had arrived .
Inside , two beds .
Two little boys .
One covered in injuries , hooked up to machines .
The other , peaceful , just an oxygen mask .
Even a blind man could see the difference .

The cane wielding mob rushed to the first boy , crying .
This must be her son ! Poor thing ! So many > tubes ! He must be in agony ! If I had a daughter like that , Id kill her ! Her own son ! How could she ? Officer , look ! This is proof ! Even if he lives , hell be scarred for life ! Shes an abuser ! Jessica froze , sweat beading on her nose .
Mom clutched her shirt , move .
The cops , sensing something was wrong , approached me .
Is this Ethan ? The child in the abuse report ? I nodded , then shook my head .
Hes my son .
But his name is Leo .
Not Ethan .
I pointed to the other boy .
Thats Ethan .
Hes my sisters son .
The room went silent .
Jaws dropped .
A few young mothers confronted Jessica .
Whats going on ? You said your sister was abusing him ! You asked us to come ! Yeah , why is she saving Ethans your son ? く Isnt Leo your son ? Jessica , are you hiding something ? Dont use us ! Jessica and Mom scrambled to recover .
No ! Dont listen to her ! Ethans her son ! You saw the video ! Shes heartless ! Yes ! My older daughter had Ethan .
My younger daughter had Leo .
Id know my own grandsons ! I laughed .
Still lying ? Did they think they could fool me again ? I turned to the doctors .
Please , remove Ethans oxygen .
Im refusing treatment .
Leo gets the best care , no matter the cost .
Jessica shrieked .
No ! You cant ! Mom collapsed , eyes vacant .
The doctors hesitated , looked at my determined face , then gave the order .
Stop the oxygen .
Bed 2.
The nurse removed Ethans mask .
Jessica く lunged forward , frantic .
No ! Save him! Please ! Dont give up on him ! Im begging you ! The room understood .
I grabbed her , tossed her aside .
Relax .
Hes fine .
I gave him special medicine .
Hes just sleeping .
Id given Ethan the medicine before Jessica even arrived .
Thats why hed been so quiet , almost lifeless .
Id spent Davids life insurance , worked myself to death , to buy that medicine .
And Ethan had unplugged me .
Id wanted to let him die .
But I couldnt .
So Id given him the medicine , severing our bond .
Jessica slammed against the wall , winded .
Ashley ! You tricked me ! Youre a snake ! I laughed .
She had no idea what real cruelty was .
Officer , I said , ignoring Jessica , I want to < Duny I hadnt saved him , Leo would be dead .
Mom helped Jessica up , glared at me .
How dare you accuse your sister ! You have no proof ! I calmly produced DNA results , police surveillance footage .
This proves Leo is mine , and Ethan is Jessicas .
Want to see the other results , Mom ? You know the truth .
This shows Jessica dumping Leo in a … dumpster .
Barely alive .
Still think Im lying ? No proof ? Mom trembled , her grip on Jessica loosening .
They both fell to the floor .
How … how did you … when did you … ? The cop took the evidence , frowned .
This is getting complicated .
Assault , abandonment … Were opening an investigation .
Take her away .
Mom clung to Jessica wailing No ! Dont < away .
Mom clung to Jessica , wailing .
No ! Dont take my daughter ! Jessica shook , terrified .
No ! Mom ! Help me !
