Charvi had just let out a sigh of relief when the office phone buzzed, making her tense up again. "Mr. Webb, what do you need?""Book a ticket, I'm heading to Westwood.""Okay." Charvi was confused. They just returned from Westwood.She did not have time to ponder as Yosef hung up and strode out of his office. Charvi quickly followed.Yosef said, "Set it up. I'm going to check on the Westwood branch.""Right away."It did not take long for Charvi to figure out that Yosef was planning to spend a little time in Westwood."I'll get on it immediately."At the elevator, the doors slid open to reveal Leah, who was surprised at first but quickly smiled politely."Mr. Webb, are you heading out? Could I have ten minutes of your time? I need to update you on some work."…Zara had pushed aside all the small distractions, concentrating on her job until it was time to leave.She and an assistant were discussing work as they walked down the stairs.The assistant asked her to dinner, an

Yaxley raised his hand slightly, and the violinist quietly left the room. The silence settled as he said, "Crich works for Winston."Crich was the prisoner who had fought with Trevor, breaking his leg and nearly getting extra time added to his sentence.Zara, regaining her composure, asked, "How do you know Crich?""You don't seem surprised that Crich is with Winston," Yaxley observed sharply. If Zara had not known, her first question would have been about Crich, not about him.Zara did not deny it. She had known all along.She had always felt there was something strange about the fight between Crich and Trevor. She told Shelby her thoughts, and Shelby asked her prison guard friend for information.Crich had a close friend in prison who knew all his secrets. This friend told the guard that Winston had sent a message to Crich, telling him to break Trevor's leg when he got the chance."Stanley broke Winston's leg, and Winston's been holding a grudge. He couldn't get back at Stanle

The university in Capital City had to have made an exceptional offer to lure Stanley away, considering Starville University was one of the best in the nation.Zara offered her heartfelt congratulations. "I hope your future is filled with success.""If you ever need anything, you can still reach out to me," Stanley said kindly. "I've promised to help you, and I always keep my promises.""Okay, I'll remember that," Zara replied.Deep down, the two of them knew it was just a courteous offer.Zara, who always dealt with things on her own, had never wanted to trouble Stanley even when he was close by. Now that he was moving to Capital City, she would not dream of imposing on him.Stanley left shortly after.Yaxley returned just as the waiter brought out the dishes. He casually suggested, "Try the foie gras here. It's really good."Zara had no appetite left and felt really down. She looked at him and asked, "Why did you set this whole thing up?"It seemed like he wanted to force her

Chapter 304

Zara's head was already spinning, and the latest news hit her like a wave, making her feel woozy. She could not believe it.Did the babies not cry last night because of their full diapers? Who would poison a pair of one-month-old babies?She was not the only one in the nursery last night. Yosef was there before she arrived.Zara could not waste time trying to figure it all out. She quickly got herself together and hopped in a taxi to the Hoster family's place. She had to clear this up, or Stefan would be after her.…Stepping out of the taxi, a chill wind made her back sweat. She was bundled up but still shivered uncontrollably. She bit her lip and pushed forward.The Hoster family's place was lit up. As a maid led Zara inside, she overheard the twins' nanny, Mary, accusing someone with total confidence, "It was Ms. Lowry! She looked so guilty last night, and Clara saw it too. Didn't you, Clara?"The maid who was called out nodded in agreement.The twins' mom, Tess Fort, asked

He just sat there, still as a statue.Marigold snapped, "We haven't figured out what happened yet. No hitting!"Tess was panting, her hair a mess and her eyes red from worry. She had obviously been up all night because of her children.Marigold added, "Once we know the whole story, I'll know what to do."She was not just talking to Tess. It was a warning for Zara too.Leah got up and gently hugged Tess, whispering, "Don't worry just yet, Tess. Ms. Lowry is here, and we'll get to the bottom of this. If she's behind it, Mr. Webb won't just stand by and watch."Zara wondered what Yosef would do.Tess' hands were balled into fists. She was full of anger and hatred. "Alright, let's get this straight. Ms. Lowry, we've never had any problems before, so why go after my babies?! "If you're upset with me, fine, but my babies are only a month old. How could you?"Zara spoke up, clear and firm, "Like you said, we have no bad blood between us. Why would I hurt your babies who are just a m

Zara's head shot up.She was not sure if Tess had just spoken out of worry and impulse or if she really meant it.The living room went quiet, and no one said a word. Tess' angry eyes were fixed on Zara. The silence made it feel like they were all waiting for Zara to kneel. Zara was in high heels and standing on a plush carpet. She already felt like she might fall at any moment now. She also felt sick in a way she could not explain.She bit her lip, ready to talk.Just then, from the single couch, there was the sound of a glass hitting the table.It was clear and sharp.Zara instinctively looked toward Yosef.Before she could see his face, Leah spoke up. Zara's scattered attention was pulled back by Leah's voice."Tess, take a breath. This... Hey, Mr. Webb, you should say something for Ms. Lowry."Then, Yosef said, "Madam Hoster, does the Hoster family make people kneel without knowing the whole story?"Yosef had finally spoken up for Zara.However, it was only because Leah

Marigold walked over to Yosef, her voice softening. "Yosef, you've been thoughtful. You were at the train station when I called, weren't you? You just arrived in Westwood and rushed over to see the children without taking a break."Yosef replied modestly, "It's no big deal.""You should also stay the night. I have two rooms prepared for you."Yosef accepted the offer, saying, "Alright."Marigold rubbed her lower back and let out a weary sigh. "I had a long day, and my old bones are feeling the strain."Leah was really thoughtful. "Madam Hoster, you should take a break. We're practically family here, so there's no need to fuss over us. We can just help ourselves."In a quiet corner, Zara closed her eyes as she tried to soothe the sick feeling inside her.She could not see, but she heard everything.Leah's voice contained a secret meaning. It seemed she was hinting at something special between her and Yosef.She kept saying the word 'we'.Yosef had brought Leah to the Hosters'

Zara bit her lip and turned to Mary. "Excuse me, what's your name?"Mary huffed and turned her head, clearly not wanting to help.Zara kept her cool. "Madam Hoster asked me to look into this. If I want to find out who did the poisoning, I'll have to question everyone, not just you. "If you don't help me, I'll think you're hiding something, and I'll tell Madam Hoster. Then, you'll have to deal with whatever she decides to do."Zara said this for Mary and for all the other helpers to hear.She needed their help and was using the little authority she had to get it.Her warning worked. Mary's face went pale, and she dropped the act. "I... I'm Mary."Yosef went upstairs, glanced back, and saw Zara asking Mary questions in an orderly way. She was set on solving the case herself. He felt a bit miffed and looked away.Then, he paused. "Let's not go to the room just yet."The maid stopped. "What would you like to do, sir?"Yosef asked, "Where's Tess' room?"The maid paused, a puzzle

Chapter 309

Tess, perched on a little couch, looked up at Zara with a hint of annoyance.Zara, seasoned by years in the workforce, was not bothered by the chilly welcome. "Tess, I think I'm onto the real perpetrator behind the poisoning incident. I just need you to point them out, if you could—""Zara, hold on a sec."Leah cut her off, and Zara stopped mid-sentence.In a gentle voice, Leah said to Tess, "Tess, I know it's been tough with everything about the kids, but that's exactly why we've got to catch the bad guy. We have to make them pay for what they did, right?"It was after one in the morning, way past bedtime. Tess looked wiped out, her eyes red from lack of sleep.She could not think about sleeping until they caught the culprit, however, so she finally nodded.Zara tried to speak again, but Leah jumped in before her. "Yosef, your turn."Zara was silent as she glanced at the man.They were in a study, not a bedroom. Yosef stood by the door since the room was full of ladies.Ever

Zara took a deep breath and turned to Tess again, asking with concern, "So, Tess, do you have a grudge against anyone?"Tess held her head, looking distressed. "My head's all mixed up now. I can't think. I just can't remember..."Zara handed Tess the tablet. "I had Mary pull up the surveillance from last night. We took pictures of everyone who went upstairs. Go through these and tell me if you see anyone who might want to hurt your children to get back at you."Tess flipped through the pictures. After a few, she stopped, her eyes popping wide open. "It's her! I'm sure of it!"Zara saw a young woman on the screen. "Who is she?"Tess' voice was filled with anger. "My sister. She's always been jealous because I married into the Hoster family. She uses our mom's favoritism to make my life hard. She has never really wanted to help with my children. She's the one behind this!"Zara was confused. Did they not have the same mom? The point, however, was not that.The suspect was found.
