As soon as Selena said those words, the entire banquet hall fell into a stunned silence.

Everyone turned to look at her in disbelief. Keira seemed completely taken aback.

Even Keira froze in shock, while Ellie's eyes quickly filled with tears.

"Gavin, you have cancer? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?" Tears rolled down her cheeks, harder than when she'd found out about Darien's betrayal. "How could this happen...?" Gavin wanted to reassure her, to tell her it wasn't true, but before he could get the words out, he bent over and vomited again.

His peanut allergy had been treated quickly, so it wasn't too serious. After throwing up the rest of the peanut butter, he was already feeling a lot better.

He couldn't speak, so Selena took the lead. "He was just diagnosed recently. Babe, you can't leave me. What will I do if something happens to you?" She turned to Ryan, grabbing his arm. "You have to stand up for him, Ryan!" Ryan shot her a cold look before glancing over at Keira and asking calmly, "Stand up for him against what?" "They knew about Gavin's condition," Selena insisted. "My uncle and aunt must've poisoned him on purpose! They're still mad because you wouldn't cooperate with them, so they're taking it out on Gavin. My poor husband... It's all my fault." As she sobbed, she felt the urge to vomit herself.

What was going on today? Why did her stomach feel so unsettled? But Selena gritted her teeth and kept going. Her attention remained laser-focused on "Keera". All she wanted was for the Cobb and Horton families to completely fall out with each other.

And when Gavin died, she'd still have Ryan backing her up, allowing her to stay with the Cobb family. Thinking of this, Selena's tears flowed even harder.

Even Ellie turned to Keira in concern. "Keera, what's going on? Why was there something in the soup?" Keira sighed. "It wasn't me. That kind of stuff isn't something anyone would have just lying around the house. It's not like it's standard kitchen seasoning." Ellie nodded quickly. "You're right, I don't believe you'd do this." Selena cut in again, "Ellie, you can't believe her. If it wasn't her, who else could it be? This is the Horton house!" She stood up and pointed accusingly at Keira. "Uncle Lewis, ever since you married this woman, everything's been falling apart! Our family used to get along so well. We were like one big happy family, but ever since she stepped foot in this house, everything's been in chaos!" Lewis gave a cold laugh. "Get along well? Are you blind or just delusional? Since when have we ever been harmonious? Was it all the times I backed down and let the rest of the family get away with whatever they wanted? Is that your idea of peace?" Selena was taken aback but quickly rallied. "But we're family, aren't we? Family ties can't be broken! You used to let it slide before, so why not now?" Lewis found her words absurd.

Did she really think that because he'd tolerated the chaos before, he had to endure it for the rest of his life? He glanced at Selena, finding himself at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Selena turned back to Ryan, crying even harder. "Ryan, you have to fight for Gavin! He can't just die without anyone holding them accountable!" At that moment, Gavin finally finished vomiting.

He looked over at Selena and said, "Selena, I'm fine..." "How can you say you're fine? You could've lived for a few more months, but now because of this, you might not make it through the night! This poison might be harmless to most people, but to someone with cancer, it's fatal! They did this on purpose-to frme, to kill you, to cut off my ties to the Cobb family! Oh, Gavin..." Gavin listened to her sobbing and looked at her in confusion, unsure of what to say.

He was already feeling better.

The antihistamines had kicked in, the sensation of something stuck in his throat had faded, and even the itching was subsiding. But at this moment, he felt incredibly awkward.

Should he say something? He wasn't even dead yet, but someone was already mourning for him.

After a brief moment of disorientation, he finally spoke up. "Selena, I'm really okay..."

"How could you be okay? Stop trying to comfort me. I've seen your hospital report!" Selena wiped away her tears, her voice full of sorrown "Don't worry about me. I won't blyou for draggingdown... If you die, I won't go on living either! Gavin, don't leave me! If you do, what will happen to me? The Cobb family doesn't want me, and the Horton family is out to kill me. What am I going to do?" Gavin blinked.

Watching her cry her heart out, he had no idea how to respond.

Awkwardly, he reached out and patted her on the back, then gently pushed her away. "Stop crying. I'm really okay." Just as she was about to start up again, Gavin quickly cut in, "I don't have cancer!" Selena froze. "That can't be true! I saw the report!" With a deep sigh, Gavin finally clarified, "The person with cancer... is you."
