daughter—one and the same. The moment money is mentioned, their true colors show.
"It has nothing to do with me that he fainted. Clearly, he was poisoned," Ella Grant snapped back, her irritation boiling over.
She was fed up with these people. Were they blind? The signs of poisoning were so obvious!
Even if they couldn't see the symptoms, couldn't they recognize Stella Grant's deliberate provocation?
Had they never watched a palace drama?
"Don't worry, he definitely won't die. For those of you hoping he kicks the bucket so you can split the inheritance, you can forget it."
"And to those who just believe whatever they hear, what do you think you'll gain by acting this way?"
Ella's icy gaze pierced through the crowd, systematically countering their doubts and attacks In that moment, she recalled her past life and felt that staying with the organization had been the right choice; she didn't have to deal with such trivial people and matters.
The crowd was momentarily silenced by Ella's fierce presence.
After a while, Sabrina Anderson finally reacted, sneering, "Ha! You've certainly become sharper-tongued!"
How could so many of them be intimidated by a little girl just now?!
"Are you a doctor? You just say he's poisoned, and that's it? Ridiculous! Everyone is watching; who would poison him? Mr. Grant is furious because of you! Let me tell you, Ella Grant, if anything happens to him, you can forget about staying in the Grant family!"
As soon as Sabrina Anderson spoke up, Stella Grant jumped in.
"Exactly! You're just trying to argue your way out of this!"
The crowd echoed in agreement. "Right, the doctor's diagnosis isn't even out yet. How could she know it's poisoning?"
The doctor Oliver Grant hired was still busy examining Dalton Grant, and they couldn't yet determine what had caused his fainting.
No one wanted to believe Ella Grant.
Since she returned to the Grant family, she had been causing trouble, making things awkward for everyone.
To clean up the mess from her engagement party, Stella Grant had to get engaged at a young age, while Ellastubbornly refused to apologize to the Lee family for the arranged marriage.
Today, she had even made her own father faint from anger.
The old lady had been staying inside, but upon hearing about Dalton Grant's fainting, she hurriedly had someone help her out.
"What on earth is going on?"
Some people had already taken a dislike to Ella Grant, and when they saw the old lady arrive, they quickly began to embellish the story for her.
In the end, they added, "Grandma, I think Ella Grant has ulterior motives. We can't allow someone with such ambition to stay in our family!"
"We should kick Elle Grant out of the Grant family!"
This suggestion was immediately met with overwhelming support from the majority, led by Sabrina Anderson and Stella Grant.
"Kick Elle Grant out of the Grant family!"
