The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 389 To Perpetrate a Fraud



Joey glanced compassionately at Lillian, who was lying on the bed in the corridor but unattended, her face was pale and her eyes were tightly closed, completely unaware that her fate had completely changed. Joey could not help but sigh lowly and said, "The feud of the previous generation should be settled by us, the child is innocent. I know that you have taken good care of Lillian these years, and please continue to do so in the future." Because of what had happened today, George and Allen might not take care of Lillian anymore. They had already raised the child for nearly four years. Did they have to raise her for the rest of her life? For the Charles family, Lillian's birth had become a disgrace.

Even though Paige liked Lillian, she couldn't do anything about it as the one who could really make the decision in the Charles family was George.

It was likely that Lillian would never be able to return to the Charles family. She could only rely on Chance, her biological father, who had already lost her mother.

However, Chance had no remorse but was full of resentment. She was not sure what he would do in the future. In the end, Lillian would lose the only person she could rely on. So Joey hoped that Chance would think more about Lillian and not mess his and Lillian's life. Through Joey's reminder, Chance's hatred was replaced by worry. He looked at Lillian lying in bed with a complicated expression. In the end, he didn't say anything and carefully pushed Lillian step by step limping towards the VIP ward. It was evident that he had taken Joey's words to heart, but no one knew if he could do it.

Half an hour later, Joey went back to the Charles family alone.

George and Allen went back to their work, while Martha waited for Paige to wake up in another hospital.

After returning to the Charles family, Joey did not take the front door, but walked around the Charles family's main building and finally stopped at Paige's room to watch the terrain carefully.

As Chance said, the appearance of that snake was not an accident. Joey suspected that it was Sharon who did it.

Joey confirmed her suspicion when she finished observing the surrounding environment.

Any corner of the Charles family was exquisitely designed, and the periphery of the main building was a wide green lawn with no piles within a hundred meter radius. The snake shouldn't have crawled into Paige's room given the environment. Besides, now that the weather had turned cool, snakes had almost started hibernating.

Standing outside the slightly opened window of Paige's room, Joey could almost imagine Sharon going around to the back of the villa while Paige was napping, then gently pushing open the window and releasing a poisonous snake through the crack in the window. Joey could not help but shudder.

Just when Joey was immersed in speculation, the door to Paige's room was suddenly pushed open. Through the crack in the window, she could clearly see that the person who came in was Sharon.

She furtively looked outside for a while, as if to make sure that no one had seen her. Then she gently closed the door and walked over to Paige's dressing table.

Then a creepy villainy leapt out at Joey--Sharon was changing Paige's medicine!

She took some of Paige's maintenance products and pocketed them, then took out the same shaped pills from another pocket and put them into the original pill bottle. Joey could tell that the ingredients of the maintenance products had been changed and the potency would be completely different.

Joey pulled out another syringe to inject a clear liquid into Paige's skin care products. Finally she set everything back in place and left quietly.

All of this was captured by Joey, who was standing outside the window.

Joey's heart was beating so fast that she slowly slid down with her back against the wall and squatted motionlessly on the ground.

She had underestimated Sharon's hatred for the Charles family. Sharon had changed. She was no longer the girl in a white dress, pure and clean. Half a year of experience in the asylum and a year and a half of beggar life had made her heart twisted. She had done things that were beyond comprehension.

Joey guessed that the medicine Sharon had changed should be psychotropic drugs, because Paige's state was like the symptoms of a normal person about to go crazy.

If she was not mistaken, Sharon was going to get her a taste of her own medicine. Back then, Paige and George had wrongly accused Sharon of losing her mind and forcibly sent her to an insane asylum, making her suffer for six months, and now she wanted Paige to have a taste of being crazy.0000000
