Chapter 4 Author: Perfect Timing Declan had a guilty conscience and was startled by my voice. He almost dropped the baby bundle. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, caught it just in time, and forced a smile at me. "I wasn't doing anything. Look, Jane has already given birth, so I just wanted to come see you and our child." At that moment, Jane's child seemed to sense it was in a different place and started crying at the top of its lungs. Declan's eyes flickered as he directly pulled open the bundle. With just one glance, he flew into a rage. "Sierra, is this the child you gave birth to? Did you cheat on me?" His angry roar startled all the patients and family members nearby. Everyone rushed over in a crowd, wanting to see what was happening. The Huxley family members who had just received the news and hurried over were at the front. Irene caught sight of the baby and gasped loudly. "Sierra, you're shameless! Declan is a commanding officer. He's young, handsome, and promising. Our family even paid for your wedding. What did we ever do to deserve this insult? "You got involved with a foreigner and gave birth to this brat. How am I supposed to face our family now?" She sat on the ground wailing about the family's misfortune, saying she wanted to drag me to be drowned. Her appearance was so pitiful that even the passersby who came to watch felt sorry for her and joined her in condemning me. In the middle of the chaos, Jane appeared, supporting her frail body as she walked out. There was a flash of satisfaction in her eyes, though she covered her mouth and feigned shock. "Oh my, Sierra actually gave birth to a love child? I always wondered why I kept seeing her write those strange foreign letters at home that I couldn't understand..." After speaking, Jane gave me an apologetic glance, as if she were somewhat afraid. "I'm sorry, Sierra. This was your secret. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything." Declan quickly protected her behind him and righteously scolded me. "Sierra, I can't believe this is who you are! You even exchanged letters with foreigners? You didn't leak information about my unit, did you? "You used to be in the military too, and you should know classified intel cannot be shared! Even if you're my wife, I will never cover for you. Dad, Mom, report this to the federal agents right now and tell them we've uncovered a spy!" The moment the word 'spy' left his mouth, the crowd's expressions changed. Their eyes filled with disgust. "Traitor! Get her locked up immediately!" "Exactly, shameless woman! Thank goodness Mr. Huxley is upright and puts justice before family. She's not worthy of such a good man!" "Beat her up! Let's see if she dares to be a spy again!" That era was especially sensitive to such accusations, and the crowd grew furious, demanding punishment. Someone even threw eggs to me, which splattered against my bed and splashed across my face. Seeing my miserable state, Jane hid behind the crowd and secretly laughed. When our eyes met, her heart skipped a beat, and her smile faltered. She had imagined that after having my child switched and being framed as a spy, I should have been shocked and scared. Instead, I stared at her with an unwavering gaze, as if I had already seen through every ounce of her lies. Jane had a bad feeling about it. Her eyes fell on the bundle that Declan was holding, and a chill ran down her spine. She realized that the baby had been strangely quiet the entire time. She tugged on Declan's sleeve, just about to speak, when a commotion erupted outside. "We're federal agents. Please step aside, everyone!"
