Chapter 251
Elvira was genuinely curious about what kind of magic Judy had that made Karen trust her so completely.
"Play the video," Elvira said dismissively, tired of talking to these two, and nodded for the bodyguard to start the video.
The Willis family, all four of them, were curious about what the video could show, including Amber, the one who had poisoned Karen.
The bodyguard quickly projected the video onto the hospital room's white wall. The image was crystal clear, and the kitchen setup made it obvious that this was filmed in the Willis mansion. Both Amber and Judy's expressions immediately changed as they saw what was unfolding.
Amber quickly turned around and fired back with a sharp accusation. "Elvira, how dare you secretly film in our home? This is an invasion of privacy. Do you know that?"
Elvira ignored Amber's protests. In the video, a sneaky figure appeared on the screen. It was none other than Amber. She looked around to make sure no one was watching and then quickly entered the kitchen, using her nails to stir something inside a cup.
A maid walked in, and Amber immediately stood up, pretending to be busy with something else. "Mrs. Willis, I'm here to bring Karen the luxurious collagen broth," the maid's voice was clearly heard.
"Okay, bring it up. I'm a little hungry, and I'll have something to eat," Amber replied, acting as if nothing had happened.
After the maid took the broth away, Amber's face twisted into an expression of disdain and contempt. She turned and left without a second thought. This pattern continued several times whenever the kitchen was empty, Amber would slip in and poison Karen's food with her nails. Judy watched the video in horror, unable to believe that Elvira had planted spies in the Willis family and that she had never suspected a thing.
After watching the video, both Vincent and Karen looked at Amber in disbelief. Amber, now thoroughly panicked, quickly tried to defend herself. "That's not me! It's fake. Elvira must have doctored the video to cause trouble between us. You can't believe her! If you do, her scheme will work!"
"I have a witness. Bring her in," Elvira said calmly, sitting there as if Amber's excuses meant nothing
to her.
The bodyguard ushered in Wendy, one of the Willis family's maids. Wendy immediately spoke up. "I was hiding behind a potted plant when I saw it."
"Amber didn't notice me. She was suspicious. If needed, I'll go to the police station to testify. I swear on my life that everything I've said is true." Wendy's voice was firm and resolute
"You're lying, you bitch! How much did Elvira pay you to slander me like this? Mrs. Willis, Vincent, don't listen to them! They're all working together to drive a wedge between us!" Amber, ever the master of deflection, refused to admit anything, insisting she was the victim. Vincent was in shock, the weight of the revelation hitting him hard. He didn't know how to respond. Karen, overwhelmed by the stress, suddenly coughed up a large mouthful of blood.
Knowing that she could no longer protect her mother, Judy screamed. "Grandma! Elvira, please, get someone to help my grandma!"
Don't worry. She'll be fine. The blood she's coughed up is actually helping her. It's toxic blood," Elvira said nonchalantly. Upon hearing Elvira's words, Karen felt a strange sense of relief. The pain in her chest seemed to lift, and she actually felt a bit better after coughing up the blood. She pointed angrily at Amber, cursing. "You bitch! How dare you poison me? You've
truly lost your mind!"novelbin
"It wasn't me! Trust me! Mrs. Willis, I respect you too much to ever harm you like this. It was Elvira. It was her who framed me!" Amber continued to deny everything, refusing to take responsibility.
"Is that so? Amber, the buyer has been arrested. Soon, it will be your turn." Elvira gave her a piece of heavy news.
Amber was originally locked up. It was Zach who found some connections to release her first. He wanted to cooperate with Elvira today to completely destroy the Willis family and avenge hier.
"Amber, are you crazy? Why did you kill my mother?" Vincent had already believed what happened in the video. He was not stupid. He thought about how Amber refused to call an ambulance previously. She was waiting for Karen to die from the poison.
"It really wasn't me!" Amber did not want to admit it. She felt that as long as she refused to admit it, others would not be able to do anything to her.
Elvira looked at Amber with disdain. "Is that so? Amber, we already have proof that you bought the poison, and we have video evidence of you poisoning the food. You probably still have some poison left in your room, don't you?
"You planned to kill Karen first, then Vincent. After that, the Willis family would have been yours and Judy's. Am I right?"
"Mrs. Willis, Vincent, listen to what she's saying. Is there even a single word in that mess that you can believe?" Amber, having found what she thought was evidence to fight back, immediately shouted.
Judy's heart sank. It was clear that they had already started believing what they saw. Since Elvira knew about the plan between Amber and Judy, it meant that the missing man was likely in her hands.
Judy was trembling with worry. She shouted. "Mom, why would you poison Grandma? She loves me so much and has always been so good to me, giving me all the best things. How could you do something so ungrateful?" Amber had thought that as long as she kept denying everything, she would be fine. But when Judy pointed at her, Amber froze, her face a mask of disbelief as she stared at Judy, not understanding why Judy was saying this. "Judy, you..." Amber opened her mouth in shock.
"If it was you, just go ahead and confess to Grandma," Judy said, her voice full of sadness. "I have nothing left now. I don't want to lose my family, too."
"Amber, you bitch! You dare poison my mother? I'm going to kill you!" Vincent, now fully convinced by Judy's words, charged at Amber in a blind rage. The bodyguard stepped aside, allowing him to approach and start violently hitting Amber. Amber's face was soon swollen, her teeth loose, and she had no strength to fight back.
Karen, furious but still holding Judy's hand, never once showed any disdain for Judy. Even though she hated Amber with all her heart, she still loved Judy deeply. She had no ill feelings toward Judy, despite everything Amber had done. She was determined to find a way to protect Judy.
Karen thought that as long as she stayed alive, she could help Judy make a comeback.
Amber was beaten badly, but Vincent was still not appeased. He scolded. "You bitch, I'll definitely divorce you. Since you dared to poison my mother, you could wait to go to jail for the rest of your life."
Amber, battered and barely able to speak, turned to Judy for help. Judy, with gritted teeth and for her own future, spoke coldly. "Mom, I can't help you this time. You've gone too far.
"How could you try to kill my grandma? You know I love her more than anyone, and she loves me the most. How could you poison her? I will never forgive you."
