Dahlia's expression was still normal despite being anxious deep down due to her incident being exposed. But, her face did notshow anything.
’You say that | drugged you and caused you to be infertile. But, what evidence do you have? Just based on this bottle of drugs?"Dahlia snorted lightly, "You were originally barren. What's wrong with me seeking an alternative medicine to help nurse yourbody? You can take this medicine to any random inspection agency and see which agency would be able to detect the toxicity ofthese medicines."
Stella gripped her fists tightly. This was the brilliance of Dahlia. Poisoning was too apparent, and she could be prosecuted at anyminute by taking the toxicity analysis reports.
However, it was different if she used alternative medicine. These types of medicine would not show their effects after oneconsumption. They need a long time to accumulate. Even if she was holding the bottle of medicine and found out that there wasan ingredient that would be bad for pregnancy, she would not be able to do anything to Dahlia.
An assault crime requires the chain of evidence to be complete. Stella merely had the list for the drug test from Dahlia this time.She had to drink it many times. Moreover, no evidence could prove that these drugs and the ingredients of the medicine had thesame effect. The law would not support this.
The scary thing about Dahlia was that she had already chosen a way out for herself when she chose these alternativemedications. As long as Dahlia did not admit it and Stella could not prove that repeated ingestion of the drug had caused her tobe infertile, Stella would not be able to do anything to her.
Dahlia lightly stirred her cup and lifted her gaze. She said, ’ Your body has issues. | searched for a doctor to prescribe alternativemedicine to nurse your body out of the kindness of my heart. Yet, you bite me in the ass. Stella, aren't you being too heartless?"
Stella clenched her fists. She had really underestimated Dahlia. Even if Dahlia was slapped in the face with evidence, she couldstill object without altering her expression.
What you said is true. | can't show any toxicity tests, but what if | publicized this incident?" Stella said slowly, "I'll say | boreKeegan's child, and due to drinking your medication, the child did not survive. Hence, | divorced Keegan. In your words, what doyou think grandma would do if it got to her ears?"
Dahlia froze, and her venomous gaze shot toward Stella.’You think the old lady would believe these lies?”
Stella leaned back. "It doesn't matter whether she believes it or not. As long as the rumor spreads, it will be enough to ruin yourreputation. Grandma values the Kane family’s reputation so much. How would she handle you by then?"
Dahlia's expression turned extremely ugly. Stella seemed to have poked at her Achilles heel. She was a widow who hadremained a widow for twenty years. The best way to
preserve the Kane family's reputation naturally would be to expel her.
In the past, due to her negligence that caused Keegan to drown, Cordelia had almost expelled her from the Kane household. Ifthe incident truly harmed the Kane family's reputation, Cordelia would definitely be able to perform acts such as removing Dahliaout of disgrace.novelbin
Dahlia took a deep breath and tried her best to keep calm. She raised her gaze and observed Stella earnestly. Stella's gaze waslike a fiery torch, which met her line of sight. It did not budge at all.Where is the look of shirking and hopelessness before?’ Dahlia thought.
’You have already divorced Keegan. There is no point in being entangled with this matter. My initial intention was for both of yoursake. If you don't want to appreciate it, then fine. | have nothing to say."
Stella clicked her tongue in her mind. Dahlia was definitely a master in psychological battles.
She had baited her for so long, yet she had spoken flawlessly through sheer force. This made Stella unable to find anyweakness in her.
The emerald thumb ring. Give it up," Dahlia said nonchalantly.
Stella had already found out about the problems with the alternate medicines. Dahlia just wanted to quickly end the battle andleave after completing her goal as soon as possible. The more she stayed, the harder it was to guarantee that she would notshow her true nature.
