Chapter 45 With One Look
- Meanwhile, Rebecca kept her cool and showed no signs of alarm despite Phoebe's allegations and evidence. There was no change in the calmness or clarity of her eyes, and she stated, "Even if there is poison in the medicine, I am not to blame."
- After hearing that, Kayla gave her the side-eye. Hostility rang loud and clear when she said, "Do you think you're innocent just because you said so? You personally came up with this recipe and bought the ingredients yourself. So, if you didn't do it, then Mrs. Jean must have done it."
- During this statement, Jacob brought Mrs. Jean to the room, and she immediately rushed over to defend herself. "Miss Foley, this has nothing to do with me! I only prepared the medicine according to Mrs. Foley's instructions. I didn't add anything extra. Miss Phoebe can testify on my behalf. I was still preparing the medicine when she came into the kitchen earlier. She even watched as I brought the bowl up here." She was not willing to bear the blame for this incident. If she were charged with the attempted murder of Levi, she would be imprisoned. She couldn't let that happen because she had three generations to feed back home.
