"Nope, on the contrary, letting it all out is better than using meds. At least it doesn't damage the body, and there's no wasted time

recovering later"

Arabella stated frankly.

“Well, that's easy then. Just lock her in her room, let her rage all she wants.

Lock the windows and doors, and we're good," Eunice said. "You guys, tie her to the bed, and we'll check on her tomorrow".

The servants were taken aback. Could it really be that simple?

With no better solution at hand and the uncertainty of finding the right medication, this method seemed worth a try.

It was just a pity that the room might end up in chaos.

Darren and Belinda surveyed the bedroom to ensure there were no hazardous objects or valuables.

“Arabella, you wretch, what kind of advice are you giving now? I'll tear your mouth apart!” Serena, fueled by sunknown

strength, suddenly broke free and lunged at Eunice.

In her delirium, she mistook Eunice for Arabella.

She wanted to scratch Eunice's face with her jong nails.

But Eunice blocked her, grabbing a silk necktie from the wardrobe and swiftly tying Serena to the bed.

The servants couldn't help but admire Eunice's decisive action. It had to be Eunice who took charge.

"Let's go, Eunice said after securing Serena. She dusted off her hands, ready to leave.

“Arabella, you'll get what's coming to you, you wretch, | curse you." Serena's rant was cut short as Eunice stuffed another tie into

her mouth.

“Mmmph"

Serena's curses were now in vain.

Leaving Serena's room, Belinda sighed, "Thank goodness Bella said it wasn't life-threatening. We'll check on her again tomorrow."

On their way back, she couldn't help but say, "lI wonder if Serena's ranting is because of the drugs, or if she genuinely had that

much hostility towards Bella"

"We watched Serena grow up; she's not a bad seed. Didn't Bella say the worst the drug could do was cause hallucinations? Serena

isn't in control of her actions."

"Let's hope so.” Belinda felt a weight in her heart, unsure of its origin.

“Eunice, do you know something?"

On their way back, Bard couldn't help but ask Eunice, “What was with that lemonade, really?"

Eunice confessed, “Bella thought there was something off with the lemonade tonight, so she gave it to Serena. Serena hesitated

and wouldn't drink it, so | wanted to find out if the drink was drugged and if Serena had drugged it to harm Bella. Turns out Bella

was right; the drink was drugged, and the effects were strong".

“You mean, Serena drugged Bella?" Bard was in disbelief.

Serena had always been a considerate and kind child in their eyes.

It wasn't that he was viewing her through a family bias; it was through eighteen years of interactions that he had cto know her

genuine simplicity and kindness.

Now, Eunice was suggesting that Serena might have poisoned the lemonade to harm Bella. Was this a momentary lapse, or had

there been long-standing resentment?

“Bella doesn't force issues. Her insistence on Serena drinking that lemonade speaks volumes."

Eunice knew Arabella wasn't that kind of person.

However, Eunice suspected that Arabella lacked concrete evidence that Serena had drugged her drink, which was why she hadn't

disclosed it in front of everyone.

Now that Serena drank the lemonade, even if the cup weren't cleaned and sterilized by the restaurant staff, the little residue left

could hardly be tested for anything conclusive. Even Bella, with her exceptional medical skills, could only detect the scent of

regular lemonade.

Bella had mentioned, whoever made it must be pretty skilled.

"I'll have someone check the recent purchases of such drugs in the market, see who's buying them. If we follow the trail, we should

find something; Eunice instructed as she pulled out her smartphone and gave orders to her subordinates.
