787 Chapter 786

Keira glanced over at Lewis, and then both looked at Erin. Erin shrugged and sighed. "Fine, fine, I'll be honest—I don't actually have any medicine!"

Gavin and Selena just stared at her, dumbfounded.

Erin popped one of the pills she'd taken out earlier into her mouth, chewing like it was candy. "These? They're beef jerky pellets. Honestly, that other stuff looked like vitamins, so I decided to mess with you."

She batted her eyes innocently.

Selena's expression shifted to pure rage.

She'd told herself she wasn't afraid of death, hoping that by confessing her sins, Erin might take pity on her and hand over the medicine. But now? It turned out Erin had been lying the whole time!

"You tricked me! You liar!" Selena screamed and lunged forward, her hands reaching as if to grab Erin.

Before Erin could react, Charles quickly stepped in between them, blocking Selena's path. "What do you think you're doing? You've done nothing but hurt people and now you want to blame someone else? Don't even think about touching Erin!"

Hiding behind Charles, Erin stuck out her tongue at Selena. "Serves you right! What's wrong with messing with you after you tried to manipulate everyone? Besides, if you'd taken your actual meds on time, you wouldn't be in this mess!"

Selena's face twisted in fury. "If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me!"

As she screamed, she suddenly coughed up a mouthful of dark blood and collapsed to the floor, gasping for breath and unable to speak.

Erin stepped out from behind Charles, raising her hands in innocence. "Don't look at me when you're haunting people. I'm as innocent as it gets!"
