Chapter 591
Need You to Put On a Show (Continued)
Julian Sterling didn't hide anything either and said directly, "Megan Sterling did it."
"What!" Both of them were shocked.
Claire Bennett had even less expected it to be Megan Sterling. She had suspected her before, but later dismissed the idea. She never imagined that the person who actually made a move would really be Megan Sterling!
She frowned and asked, "Why would she do that?"
Ever since she met Megan Sterling, Megan Sterling had been targeting her nonstop, and she truly couldn't figure out how exactly she had offended Megan Sterling enough to make her hate her so much.
"I don't know." Julian Sterling shook his head and guessed, "Maybe to help Fifth Uncle Sterling seize the Sterling family's assets?"
But judging from what happened this time, Theodore Sterling very obviously hadn't been prepared. Otherwise, Thomas Sterling wouldn't have been able to crush everyone so easily and swiftly lead Ethan Sterling to take over Sterling Group.
Julian Sterling looked at Claire Bennett and said, "Claire, if we want Megan Sterling to confess this time, we may need you to put on a show."
Claire Bennett almost didn't hesitate at all before immediately answering, "Okay, I'll definitely cooperate with you unconditionally."
What Megan Sterling had done to her was simply too much.
How could she possibly let her off!
Recently, after a period of chaos, Sterling Group had gradually returned to calm under the control of Thomas Sterling and Ethan Sterling.
At this moment, Megan Sterling was sitting in her room with an irritated expression. After seeing the news on her phone, she angrily threw it onto the bed.
Earlier, when Ethan Sterling had told her to make a move against Old Master Sterling, she had agreed because she thought that once something happened to him, Julian Sterling would be able to come back. She hadn't expected Ethan Sterling to deceive her. After Old Master Sterling was harmed, he had actually taken the opportunity to seize all of Sterling Group.
When she and Ethan Sterling had spoken back then, there had been no recording at all. If Ethan Sterling now pushed everything onto her, then even if she had a hundred mouths, she still wouldn't be able to explain herself.
And her father still didn't know that she was the one who poisoned Old Master Sterling. If he found out, she definitely wouldn't end well.
The more Megan Sterling thought about it, the worse her mood became. Because of her guilty conscience, she hadn't dared go see Old Master Sterling at all.
She also didn't know how Old Master Sterling was doing now, but so far there still hadn't been any news that his life was in danger, which counted as one good thing.
Megan Sterling thought it over and felt that perhaps it was necessary for her to go visit Old Master Sterling.
First test the waters, then make further plans.
Half an hour later, Megan Sterling arrived at the hospital.
After stating her identity, she smoothly entered the VIP inpatient floor. After entering the hospital room, Megan Sterling didn't expect to see someone she hadn't expected at all: Claire Bennett!
Claire Bennett was sitting beside Old Master Sterling's hospital bed. She had also come to visit him.
Other than Claire Bennett, there was no one else.
Megan Sterling's eyes flickered almost imperceptibly. Wasn't Claire Bennett arrested because of Old Master Sterling's poisoning? How had she gotten out now?
She was full of shock and suspicion, but she quickly regained her composure.
Megan Sterling walked toward Claire Bennett. "Claire Bennett, Grandpa's situation still hasn't been fully investigated, so how did you get out? What did you do to get released?"
Hearing Megan Sterling's blunt questioning, Claire Bennett only found it laughable.
When she saw her, she must have been panicking, right?
After learning Megan Sterling's true colors, Claire Bennett now looked at her through a very different lens. She felt that if Megan Sterling didn't go to the Oscars, it would really be a waste of her excellent acting.
If Julian Sterling hadn't told her that Old Master Sterling had been poisoned by Megan Sterling, she never would have suspected Megan Sterling at all.
After suppressing all the thoughts in her heart, Claire Bennett said coolly, "Old Master Sterling's poisoning wasn't done by me, so why shouldn't I be out?"
"You..."
Before Megan Sterling could speak, Claire Bennett continued, "And... Julian Sterling has already invited a famous doctor from overseas. Old Master Sterling will wake up very soon, and when he does, he'll definitely be able to prove that I'm innocent."
When Megan Sterling heard Claire Bennett's words, her expression changed.
A wave of panic rose in her heart. She didn't know whether what Claire Bennett said was true or false. These past few days at home she'd already been like a skittish bird, and now Claire Bennett's words once again stirred up the worry in the bottom of her heart.
"Megan Sterling, you look awful. Are you okay?" Claire Bennett wore a faint smile at the corners of her lips, her gaze full of concern as she looked at Megan Sterling.
"I'm fine! I'm happy for Grandpa. It's wonderful that he can wake up." Megan Sterling said stubbornly.
Claire Bennett almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She looked at Megan Sterling with ridicule and said coldly, "Megan Sterling, aren't you tired of lying through your teeth?"
