“It was you, you b*tch!” Mrs. Huo cursed.
“But three hours ago, I was still locked inside the darkroom.”
Ye Beisheng suddenly became weak and pitiful as she wiped her tears. “How could I poison you if I’m locked in the darkroom? Mrs. Huo, I know you don’t like me, but its a pity that too many people know that I can’t poison her in the secret room. Otherwise, I’ll definitely admit to this crime just to make you happy.”
Mrs. Huo’s expression changed.
The surrounding people also instantly quieted down and looked at each other.
That’s right, Ye Beisheng was locked in the darkroom by Mrs. Huo for six hours. Three hours ago, she was still in the darkroom. How could she poison Mrs. Huo?
They knew that Mrs. Huo hated this daughter-in-law of hers, but they never expected that Mrs. Huo would pin the blame on Ye Beisheng even though it was obviously not her doing.
“You, you…” Mrs. Huo was speechless.
Bai Ying could not believe the fact that she was disfigured. At this moment, she could not care less about her image. “Other than you, who else would harm me? Ye Beisheng, how can you be so cruel…”
“The doctor said it happened three hours ago…” Ye Beisheng reminded her kindly.
“Then the doctor must have made a mistake!” Bai Ying did not think too much about it.
The surrounding people looked at Bai Ying as if she was a fool.
Ye Beisheng’s eyes were filled with helplessness and heartache. “Miss Bai, they’re doctors from the Medical Alliance. They usually save people everywhere. Because of your disfigurement, they managed to squeeze out some time to come to the Huo Family. You saying that they made a mistake meant that their standards are not good enough. You can slander me, but you can’t slander the Medical Alliance. They save countless people everyday!”
Even the servants frowned and looked at Bai Ying unhappily.
Just like that, she had offended the Medical Alliance and wanted to be married into the Huo family? Was she daydreaming?
At this moment, the butler also pulled out the surveillance footage. The butler had a strange expression on his face. “Madam, three hours ago, you… You, Madam Bai, and Miss Bai have been in the tea room and have never left.
Huo Xiting was here, so the butler didn’t dare hide the truth for Mrs Huo.
The surveillance camera footage in the Huo residence from three hours ago has been pulled out. It could be seen that Ye Beisheng had never left the darkroom.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Huo, Mrs. Bai, and Bai Ying were in the tea room together.
If they were to be poisoned, they could only be done in the tea room.
However, that tea room was specially reserved for Mrs Huo; even the servants were not allowed to enter. Who would hide poison in the tearoom and poison three people at the same time three hours ago?
One of the doctors had a bad look on his face. “This kind of poison needs to be ingested to take effect. Instead of questioning us, Mrs. Huo, why don’t you think about what you drank three hours ago?!”
Everyone swallowed their saliva and understood the meaning behind these words.
It was impossible for someone to poison anything in the tea room that only Mrs. Huo could enter.
The tea was tested for toxicity and was sent up to the tearoom separately. It was definitely not poisonous when it was delivered to Mrs. Huo, but it became poisonous after drinking it.
The person who poisoned them was Mrs. Huo herself!
Ye Beisheng sighed and sniffed, looking aggrieved.
“I know that I’m not worthy of the Huo Family. If Mrs. Huo wants to chase me out, just say it. There’s no need to disfigure you, Mrs. Bai, and Miss Bai just to frame me.”
Ye Beisheng’s tone changed. “Or did the three of you design this together? After all, if you chase me out of the Huo family, Miss Bai will be able to marry my husband. Sigh… I understand. I’ll leave soon. Miss Bai, I wish you and my
husband a happy life..”
