FBI agents in uniform walked straight over, their eyes scanning between Wyatt and me. “We received a report about espionage activities here. Who’s the informant?”Â
Wyatt immediately raised his hand: “That’s me! I’m reporting former women’s battalion commander Rylee Grant for colluding with foreigners and exchanging correspondence! This baby and the lettersÂ
my house can serve as evidence!”Â

Wyatt was instantly stunned: “You’ve got the wrong people! I’m the informant! Rylee is the spy – why are you arresting Grace and me?”Â
I smiled slightly, slowly rising from the bed, wiping the dirt from my face as I looked down at them.Â
I said coldly: “Wyatt, you really had it all figured out. Switch the babies, then frame me for espionage and treason – that would clear Grace of suspicion and make me your scapegoat.”Â
Wyatt’s face turned deathly pale: “You’re talking nonsense! You’re slandering me! You’re clearly the one who had an affairÂ

This doctor had taken Wyatt’s money before. In my previous life, he was the one who testified, claiming he personally witnessed me giving birth to that mixed–race child.Â
But in this life, I had contacted him daysÂ
ago.Â

After we made eye contact, he spoke carefully: “That mixed–race child couldÂ
never have been born to Mrs. Courtland · I’ll stake my career on it. On the contrary, Mr. Courtland approached me privately before, asking me to claim the child was Mrs. Courtland’s.”Â

Originally, people had found my accusations somewhat absurd. After all, as husband and wife, no husband would frame his own wife. They never imagined that Wyatt, who appeared so upright, could actually do such a thing!Â
It was only then that everyone noticed Grace, who had been standing behind Wyatt looking weak and innocent.Â
Combined with everything I had just said, people’s expressions began to change.Â
Grace was furious, grinding her teeth and secretly resenting the doctor’s betrayal.Â

Wyatt was even more terrified, unable to understand how things had developed to this point.Â
But he knew that once he admitted it, he would be completely finished.Â
So he stiffened his neck and pointed at me, roaring: “It must be you! You bribed the doctor to lie! I’m your husband – how could I possibly switch babies and frame you? If I really did such a thing, may I be struck by lightning!”Â
Hearing his words, I almost burst out laughing.Â
Wyatt was truly shameless!Â

I said: “As my husband, did you ever accompany me to a single prenatal appointment? Did you ever personally feel the baby in my belly even once? Don’t you feel guilty saying such things? Take a good look at what you’re actually holding in your arms!”Â
At these words, Grace’s heart tightened.Â
She finally understood why I could remain so calm in the face of such seriousÂ
accusations.Â
