Chapter 442: Chapter 442: Lies Collapse by Themselves

The Collinses.

Raine Nolan stayed up all night with her eyes wide open, hugging her pillow and sitting on the bed, her eyes blank and dazed.

Last night before going to bed, Cherry Foster was texting her with random chit-chat.

As they chatted, the topic drifted to Chloe Collins.

She said, the Carsons came to the Fosters seeking Chloe Collins’ help to analyze the components of the poison.

When she mentioned this, she didn’t think much of it.

Now, looking back at their chat records herself, she felt a tremor in her heart—

[Cherry: My mom said, specifically the Carsons wanted Chloe Collins to help. It seems her perfume making skills are well-known and highly regarded. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have personally requested her. This family isn’t just anybody, you know. — last night at 10:12]

[(Smiling) Maybe there was a misunderstanding. They must have mistaken her for her mom.]

[Cherry: Maybe, but you did say you two didn’t live together right? So you’re unfamiliar with what she learned or did when she was little. It’s plausible, she might really know how to do it.]

[(Hehe) Sure, she might know a bit. But whether it’s impressive enough is another story. Don’t forget, the last time I followed her handwritten guideline to create a perfume, it turned out to be poisonous.]

[Cherry: Right! Speaking of that, my mom said, Mr. Carson got poisoned because his wounds were sprayed with toxic perfume. Since it was poisoned perfume, could there be any connection with her?]

[(Surprised) What? Really? Are you saying that the poisonous perfume was made by my cousin? Even though she is strapped for cash, she wouldn’t stoop as low as to concoct harmful things just for money, right? She doesn’t seem to be that kind of person.]

[Cherry: emmmm...according to the person who went to inquire just now, Chloe Collins is making significant progress, she has even jotted down the ingredients and is currently conducting experiments to validate it, looking rigorous and professional. Moreover, the Carsons entirely trust her.]

[Can anyone see what she wrote down? Maybe I can offer some advice.]

[Cherry: My second brother is guarding the door, so no one else can enter.]

[Cherry: What’s strange is that, my mom said, Chloe Collins initially refused to help. She kept refusing, which I find really strange. If she’s innocent, why would she be afraid to get involved with this matter?]

[So, why did she suddenly agree?]

[Cherry: This part makes me so angry. Do you know? Our dog named Victory was hurt by someone. Coincidentally, the person who brought it to the hospital was Mr. Carson’s wife. My second brother, who never fails to return a kindness, agreed to speak to Chloe Collins on their behalf. Once my brother said something, Chloe Collins agreed. ]

Upon reading this part, Raine Nolan felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

That dog had returned home!

No wonder she couldn’t find it anywhere.

With this, the lie she had been maintaining with Robert Foster had naturally unfolded.

She spent the entire night thinking about how to deal with this matter.

On pins and needles, it was as if the Fosters would confront her any second now.

Oddly enough, after a night, there was no movement on her phone, Robert Foster didn’t call to question her.

That made her the most nervous.

After all, if they had called her last night, she could admit her mistake, admit that the dog went missing at the Collinses, but she could firmly claim to be clueless about the injury.

Without evidence, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to her.

The problem is, they didn’t call.

What exactly are they plotting?

"Raine, why aren’t you up yet? It’s time to go to school." Rosalind Taylor urged her from the doorway.
