Kelly began to cough violently and tried to reach for the alarm bell, but Sophia stopped her firmly before she could
press it.
"Mrs. Bayer, I advise you to listen to me," Sophia said with a smile. "The food I've prepared isn't that bad, and I'm
certainly not foolish enough to poison it. Don't worry. These are quality ingredients that will provide you with good
nutrition. I'm here today to genuinely take care of you."
Kelly clutched her chest as she cautiously sat up, her gaze alert. These past few days, Josiah was often absent.
Whenever she asked what was happening, he merely mentioned it was related to the company and advised her not
to worry. Despite that, she had an uneasy feeling.
Kelly took a deep breath, attempting to calm herself and outwardly complying with Sophia.

now on, you need to get used to my presence!"
"Hah! My son must be blind," Kelly muttered. "To be deceived by someone like you."
"Don't look down on me," Sophia retorted. "Though I'm divorced and have a child, I genuinely care about Graham. I
plan to spend my life with him! Unlike certain people, they may seem innocent on the surface, but in reality, they
have countless ways to seduce men."
"What are you saying?"
Sophia raised an eyebrow. "I'm talking about your previous unofficial daughter-in-law!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Kelly barked. "Our family was in the wrong in Maisie's matter. Don't slander her further!"
"Mrs. Bayer, you might know the face but not the heart. You probably don't know that in the recent Outstanding
Teacher competition at the kindergarten, it was Daniel who helped Maisie. Otherwise, with her having less than two
years of teaching experience, how could she have received that award?"
Kelly's expression darkened, and she bit her lip.
"Daniel helped her in more than just that. Even before Maisie and Graham's engagement was called off, she had
already gotten close to Daniel... The house she's living in right now was given to her by Daniel.
"Mrs. Bayer, you're experienced. Don't you know what's going on in a man's mind? Daniel could give her a house,
so who knows what they've done inside that house?
Sophia looked at the pale Kelly in satisfaction. "This was your daughter-in-law, the girl you thought highly of. Seems
your judgment of people isn't so great. If this gets out, the Bayers' reputation might be damaged because of
Maisie."
"Get out!" Kelly pounded the bed in frustration.
Sophia rose gracefully, her eyes cold. "Mrs. Bayer, there's one more thing you should know." "I don't want to hear
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmit, just leave!" "Don't be upset," Sophia said with a hint of triumph. "Mrs. Bayer, wouldn't you like to know where
your husband has been these past few days? And why hasn't your daughter come to see you?"
Kelly froze, staring blankly.
"Your daughter... is in trouble." Sophia spoke slowly, making each word count. "She's missing, and no one knows
where she is."
"What?!" Kelly felt like her ears were exploding.
Sophia grabbed her shoulders suddenly.
Kelly was shocked by the news, trembling all over, unable to speak.
Sophia stressed each word, cutting deep. "Mrs. Bayer, it's not my fault... Blame your favoritism. You've given your
daughter everything, but have you thought it might bring danger to her?"
"What have you done to Arya? You..."
Kelly froze, her gaze distant. She gasped heavily and then fell from the bed to the floor with a thud.
