Catherine glanced around before she opened Sue’s medicine bottle on the table. She then took out the bottle containing the euthanasia pills from her bag.

Perhaps it was due to her guilty conscience, Catherine’s hand trembled uncontrollably as she took out the medicine bottle.

Then, with a ‘Bang!’, the medicine bottle fell to the ground.

Catherine squatted down in a panic. She had just picked up the medicine bottle when she saw Sue staring at her coldly as if she was a prey.

“Sue, you’re awake!” Catherine asked in fear. Her face was already covered in a thick layer of powder, and she was so frightened that it turned pale!

“Why are you here?” Sue asked coldly.

It was abnormal for Catherine, this scheming woman, to suddenly be so nervous!

As the saying goes, when something goes wrong, there must be a reason!

As Sue thought of this, she glanced coldly at the opened bottle on the table and the bottle in Catherine’s hand that looked like it had trivial products.

Could it be that this Catherine wanted to…

Thinking of such a possibility, Sue frowned slightly and her gaze towards Catherine became even colder!

“I, I just came to see you!” Catherine pretended to be calm as she replied. However, the hand that was holding the bottle betrayed her and confirmed Sue’s guess.

“Are you really here to see me?” Sue asked with a cold and stern face. However, the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile and she looked very imposing.

This Sue made Catherine feel suffocated. She started to feel afraid and she even started to doubt why she dared to provoke Sue!

But there was no turning back.

Even if she was afraid, Catherine could only hold on.

“Sue…Sue, I’m your cousin. It’s normal for me to come and see you, isn’t it?” Because she was too afraid, Catherine couldn’t help but stutter when she spoke.

Seeing this, Sue couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath. She simply stretched out her hand and grabbed the medicine bottle in Catherine’s hand.

It was a very small medicine bottle. The label on the bottle said ‘Vitamin C pills’, but Sue didn’t believe it!

“Tell me, what kind of medicine is this?” Sue glanced at Catherine and asked coldly.

“Vitamin, vitamin! Yes, it’s on your desk. I, I accidentally knocked it onto the floor!” Catherine answered in a panic.

Such crappy lie, was she lying to a child?

“I’ll count to three, and if you still don’t tell the truth, then I can only call the police and medical staff to confront you,” Sue said as she reached out to hold the call bell by the bedside. She looked like she wouldn’t let Catherine off easily if she dared to lie to her again.

Seeing that Catherine was still not speaking, Sue began to count. “One, two…”

Sue definitely did it on purpose. How could she not scare someone like Catherine?

Just as Sue counted to three, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside.

Sallie and Morty walked in. As for the eldest brother, Mike, who was gritting his teeth and feeling jealous towards Morty just now, he was nowhere to be found!

“What’s wrong?” Sallie asked when she noticed that the atmosphere in the room wasn’t right.

Without waiting for Sue to answer, Catherine had already pounced on Sallie as though she was grasping at the last straw.

“Sallie, you have to help me. I was just kind enough to arrange the medicine bottles, but Sue thinks that I have ulterior motives. Help me to judge if the medicine in Sue’s hands is vitamin!”

Facing Sallie, who was the kindest and most soft-hearted person in the Cantwell Family, Catherine spoke in a pure and innocent tone. Catherine was clearly the evil one, but she was taking an advantage of Sallie’s kindness.

“Let me take a look,” Sallie said as she took the medicine bottle from Sue. She looked at the outer packaging and opened the bottle cap to take a pill to take a look.

Then she said in a fair tone, “The size and color of the pill are very compatible with the vitamin C in this packaging. It should be a vitamin!”

“But sis, this drug was not among the medicines that I ate just now!” Sue immediately said to Sallie.

This sister of hers was too naive. How could she conclude that it was a vitamin just based on the size, color and package!
