Megan Sterling's Crime Is Exposed

Very quickly, Megan Sterling comforted herself. She had done it without anyone noticing, and she had already bribed the maid who carried it out. There was no way anyone would discover it.

Right now, Claire Bennett was still the prime suspect, so what if she had gotten out?

But soon Megan Sterling felt uneasy again. What if Old Master Sterling woke up and Claire Bennett was fine?

Maybe... she should just go all the way and make sure the dead can't testify. Then she wouldn't have to worry about the truth coming out!

A vicious, murderous look flashed through Megan Sterling's eyes.

...

That night, Megan Sterling came to the hospital again.

This time the hospital was completely quiet, without a single person around, and she entered the room smoothly.

Old Master Sterling was still lying quietly in the hospital bed, with no one at all around him. It was the perfect chance to make a move!

She stepped forward, then took out a liquid and poured it onto a handkerchief. Just as she was about to make her move on Old Master Sterling, before her hand could press over him, the bathroom door in the hospital room was suddenly opened!

Several people came out one after another from inside: Claire Bennett, Julian Sterling, Ruby Sterling, and the others...

Megan Sterling was completely stunned and had no idea what was going on for a moment.

Only after quite a while did she react. She seemed to have fallen into a trap!

Megan Sterling's whole body turned cold, as if the blood in her veins had frozen solid.

Claire Bennett walked up to Megan Sterling and let out a cold snort. "Megan Sterling, you poisoned Grandpa Sterling with utter disregard for human decency, and now you want to silence him for good. We caught you in the act. What else do you have to say for yourself?"

"I..." Megan Sterling's face was pale, but she still tried her best to steady herself. "I don't know what you're talking about! I just came to take care of Grandpa. Don't slander me!"

Claire Bennett hadn't expected that even at this point, Megan Sterling could still lie through her teeth.

She pointed at the handkerchief in Megan Sterling's hand and said, "You're sure you're here to take care of Grandpa Sterling? The liquid on that handkerchief is no simple thing. We'll know whether you're lying as soon as it's tested!"

Ruby Sterling was filled with fury as she gritted her teeth and said, "Megan Sterling, I never thought you'd be that vicious. You'd even poison your own grandfather. You're going to be punished by heaven!"

Faced with everyone condemning her, Megan Sterling's expression grew uglier and uglier.

All of her excuses just now were weak and useless. After Claire Bennett pointed out the handkerchief in her hand stained with the liquid, she had nothing left to say.

Several police officers pushed open the door from outside the hospital room. Julian Sterling had called them in advance. They came forward and seized Megan Sterling at once, while another officer put the handkerchief from her hand into an evidence bag. It was an important tool in the crime.

"Miss Megan Sterling, we suspect you are connected to the attempted murder of Old Master Sterling. You are a major suspect. Please come with us."

Megan Sterling had just been caught red-handed. There was no room left for her to escape.

And Julian Sterling was never going to let her get away with it.

Seeing things had reached this point, Megan Sterling finally gave up struggling and lowered her head in dejection.

Before Megan Sterling was taken away, Claire Bennett walked up to her and asked, "Megan Sterling, why do you hate me so much? This isn't the first time you've come after me. Framing me, setting me up, every dirty trick—you've used them all on me. But there has never been any connection between us. Where does your hatred for me come from?"

At that moment, Old Master Sterling, who had kept his eyes shut the whole time on the bed, opened them as well. He slowly sat up. He also wanted to know whether Fifth Brother had any part in this.

The Sterling family was in total chaos now. Old Master Sterling could accept the Sterling children fighting over the family fortune, but only up to a point. If they were willing to poison and hurt people for that fortune, that was something he absolutely could not accept.

When Megan Sterling saw Old Master Sterling sit up, her eyes widened in shock.

So all of it had been a lie!

Old Master Sterling had already regained consciousness long ago, but Claire Bennett and the others had deliberately kept it hidden. They had even told her they would bring in doctors to treat him, all to stir up panic in her heart and make her expose herself.

If she hadn't been so flustered at the time and hadn't tried to make a move on Old Master Sterling, maybe she wouldn't have been exposed.

Megan Sterling looked at the people in front of her staring at her. Her eyes gradually turned red, and waves of unwillingness surged in her heart.
