Chapter 148 Grovel and Apologize to My Wife!

The mood shifted dramatically, but it soon became clear that the real issue was mine to deal with.

Carter had already stepped in, ready to shoulder the blame on my behalf. "Right on cue," he said, his voice steady. The surveillance footage has everything I'll clear up the confusion right now." The screen flickered, showing a clip of Anna herself adding something to the orange juice.

She'd been careful. Knowing Zoey couldn't handle alcohol, she anticipated that I would only take a small sip of champagne if someone came over to toast me.

Eventually, I'd need to switch to something lighter-

By coincidence, the original owner of this body had a particular fondness for orange juice.

This drink had been specially prepared for me. After I had consumed the wine Ashley gave me, Anna seemed to feel safe enough to pour the juice.

What she didn't know was that the entire scene of her drugging the drink was caught on camera.

Her actions were clearly filmed, though Carter had no intention of using that footage to harm me.

The footage worked in our favor. The way things appeared, it seemed as though Anna had drugged herself, completely unaware that the drink she consumed had been spiked by Daisy at my request.

It was a clever turn of events-one that mirrored the many tricks Anna had tried to pull on me in the past. I was simply returning the favor and with a bit of extra flair.

Sadly, Anna wasn't around to see the expression on her own face. I bet it would've been amusing to

witness,

The Sanders watched in disbelief. "How could this happen? What was she really trying to do?"

Bill, who had just calmed my mother down, couldn't help but notice the footage. His sneer was icy as he said, "This is the 'innocent' daughter you all talk about? Pregnant, yet drinking something that's been drugged? Who exactly is she trying to seduce tonight?" When "seduce was mentioned, several of them immediately thought of Luke.

Could Anna still be obsessed with him?

That didn't quite add up, though. If that was the case, why would she drug herself instead of Luke, especially while pregnant?

Despite the confusion clouding the Sanders' thoughts, the evidence was undeniable. There was no way out

for them.

Seeing an opening to stir the pot, Bill pushed Josh into a challenge. "Mr. Sander, it's dark outside, and no one's watching. You should take advantage of this moment." Josh's frustration was palpable, but he was cornered, leaving Bill to gain the upper hand

At that moment, Carter spoke up, cutting through the Forge year her fall Trees something more pressing here."

The Sanders exchanged relieved glances, grateful for intervention. After the Belters and Ster still shared some ties.

But then, Carter's expression turned cold, and his voiceharpened "Karker, you someday we Mr. Sander, I demand that you and your family apologize to her-

Josh's face tightened. "Carter, our families were once connected by marriage. We were family for delt at least consider the late Chloe-"

Before he could finish his plea, Carter, usually the calmest one in the room, slammed his hand does yo the table, flipping the fruit platter with a violent crash.

The platter shattered, and fruit spilled everywhere. Carter's expression was dark and menacing, the ad of intensity that froze the air. Even I was taken aback by the force of his anger. His voice was ice-cold. "What makes you think you can use her death as some kind of viele Venditte

owe you?"

This was the first time I'd seen Carter so shaken, and it was because of Chloe.

His gaze could cut through steel.

Even the Sanders were stunned by the sheer force of his fury. His eyes were like a storm-sharp, filled with a cold rage.

Im telling you now," he said, his voice a low growl. "Grovel and apologize to my wife. If not, none of your will be allowed to leave the Bolton Residence today!"
