Chapter 1074

Zada’s hands were shaking as she said, “The doctor ran the tests. It’s true, Halsey was poisoned. And the poison came from the chicken soup I made.”

“What?” Sierra gasped, eyes wide in mock shock. Her acting kicked in flawlessly. “You poisoned Halsey’s chicken soup? Why would you do something like that?”

Zada’s voice trembled. “It wasn’t me! I swear, I didn’t know there was poison in the soup!”

“But you were the one who made it!” Sierra shot back, her tone sharp but controlled.

Zada turned toward her. “Yeah, I made it, but you were there, too! You showed up while I was cooking.”

Sierra’s stomach dropped. Was Zada suspecting her?

She quickly calmed herself. Back then, she had been careful not to touch the soup directly–something she had Zada to thank for. Zada had insisted on doing everything herself, and that had now become Sierra’s perfect alibi.
