Love On Ice: Don’t Leave Me, My Charming Liar

Chapter 354: Each word fell from her lips like a carefully placed stone in a wall of deceit. Her tale was seamless, leaving little room for doubt. "What a vicious woman," Theodore muttered, his brow furrowed in displeasure. "Don't worry, Stella. I'll make sure justice is served." Callie was aware of the situation almost as soon as it happened. She sat at her vanity, slowly removing her jewelry, while her phone displayed an ongoing call. "Nyla wasn't drugged. Should we proceed with the next plan?" The voice on the other end was mechanical, just like last time.

Callie placed her jewelry back in their boxes with a contented sigh. "No need for that. Ethan has probably noticed that something is up. Let's hold off for now." "What about Stella?" "Let's keep a close eye on her. I've heard the drug's effects are quite potent. Send someone to check on her tonight."

But two children bumped into her just as she picked up the glass, causing it to fall on the floor. Nyla never got to drink it. "Who brought her in?" Ethan asked, sounding exhausted as he kneaded his temples. "It was Miss Higgins," Jackson replied. "Miss Higgins came to deliver a gift to your father and brought Stella along." Callie? Ethan recalled the incident at the hospital.

So, Stella had asked Callie to bring her to the Brooks Mansion? "Are there any developments with the Higgins family?" . . .
