Keira charged up to her and glared at her. "Vera, what's the meaning of this!"
Vera sneered. "The Martin family's medicines are all prepared by Fox. Do you think old Mr. Martin gave you the antidote? You were wrong!"
She sat there calmly, her expression not the least bit flustered as she looked at Keira indifferently. "Killing Uncle Olsen was my pledge of loyalty to Fox."
Keira's pupils shrank. "You surrendered to Fox a long time ago?"
"Surrender? Keera, it seems you have remembered something... Or were you playing dumb all along?" After raising this question, Vera sneered again. "Never mind, that's not important. What's important is... Although I'm also one of the South family's heiresses, I know that I'm no match for Fox and have long since made my commitment known."
Leaning back in her chair, she propped up her chin. "So, even if I get caught, it doesn't matter. As long as Fox wins, I can walk out of here as a free woman."
She laughed arrogantly. "And you, there's nothing you can do to me!"
Vera looked around the interrogation room with a brazen expression. "Don't expect me to tell you anything. I can avoid the struggle among the other candidates by hiding in here. It's indeed a good choice."
Keira clenched her fists, her face full of fury. "Vera, you killed my father! I'll kill you! Do you think you're safe here, and I can't touch you?"
Vera said disdainfully, "What can you do?"
Keira stepped forward. "I can do a lot of things! Holly values fairness and strictness, but I don't! I can take you away from here and find a place to kill you to avenge my father!"
Vera scoffed. "You Creran people are all about doing things with the right reason. Do you think I'll believe you by spouting a few angry words? Crera is your turf, but you still need a legitimate reason to capture me. Keera, do you think I'm going to believe such nonsense from you?"
Keira appeared to be infuriated by Vera's words and angrily pointed at her. "You, you..."
Lewis immediately held her shoulder. "Keera, contain your grief."
Seeing the act that the two of them were putting on, Holly played along. "Keera, what's going on here? Didn't you get the antidote? How did it turn out to be poison?"
Upon hearing this, Keira turned around, her shoulders trembling, and she lowered her head as if crying in a suppressed voice. "I don't know... My grandfather gave me the medicine... Now, the Olsen family blames me and him. The Olsen and Martin families will be at odds!"
Lewis glanced at her and saw that there were no tears in Keira's eyes; it appeared she couldn't manage to cry on the spot, so she turned her back to Vera.
He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and as he glanced at Vera's expression, he saw that she was indeed reveling in misfortune. He immediately said, "It's clearly Fox and Vera's responsibility. What does it have to do with your grandfather?! The Olsen family is so foolish! What benefit would it be for your grandfather to poison your father?"
Vera couldn't help but say, "Of course, there are benefits! The Martin family hesitated between Rabbit and me, and he eventually chose Rabbit. But siding with Rabbit now is just an added luxury. If Uncle Olsen is dead, Keera can only rely on the Martin family. That'll be a great prize for the Martins! They'll have a lot to gain!"
Vera looked toward Keira. "Those families who are aware of the South family's existence and support the heiresses will certainly want to show off their power to gain attention... Rabbit, your grandfather was thinking exactly that! He wanted to weaken the control of the Olsen family over you and make the Martin family your most important background!"
"That's impossible! You're lying!"
Keira shouted angrily, "My grandfather isn't that kind of person! The Olsen family won't believe a word you say! Moreover, the antidote was in your hands! You're the one who has been scheming behind the scenes! What does it have to do with the Martin family?!"
"Who said the antidote was in my hands?"
Vera looked at Keira with a mixture of arrogance and resentment. "The antidote has always been with the Martin family. When the poisoning took place, I borrowed the poison from the Martin family. That little box where he keeps Seven Days contains hundreds of combinations. The poison he gave me was in a white bottle, and what was the container of the antidote you received?"
Keira suddenly turned around, stunned. "It was pink..."
Vera spread her hands, "There you have it. He deliberately gave you the wrong one to poison Uncle Olsen! If you don't believe it, you can search the Martin family for that white bottle and compare it with the poison in your father's system. You'll see."
At those words, Keira's pupils instantly contracted. "The white bottle?"
"That's right." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Vera smiled. "I've made a great contribution to Fox. Between the Martin and Olsen families, you can only choose one... You'll forever lose the support of the other family!"
But the next moment, she saw the grief-stricken expression on Keira's face vanish. Keira wiped away the hard-earned tears and sighed lightly. "Now I know what a tough job the actors have."
