ANMELDENI came home from abroad to save my nephew's company from going bust, and also to attend his wedding with his sweetheart. But just as the banquet was about to start, a barrage of comments suddenly popped up before my eyes: [Thank goodness the sweetheart is clever and came up with the idea of framing the substitute for poisoning! The male lead will definitely be over with the substitute after this!] [Exactly! So what if the substitute has stayed by his side for ten years? The male lead still loves his sweetheart the most!] Elaine Geston, decked out in a luxury wedding gown, strutted up to me with her nose in the air, looking smug. "So you're the woman Nolan has cherished for ten years? I hate to break it to you, but you're just a substitute for me! You should get lost if you know what's good for you!" I glanced down at my phone, checking the stock prices, not in the mood to deal with her. She suddenly looked shocked. She picked up one of the two glasses of wine prepared for the newlyweds, sniffed it, then pointed a finger at me and yelled, "What a vile woman! You actually poisoned the wine! Just because Nolan loves me, you want to kill us both!" Hearing this, the security guards instantly surrounded me, looking hostile. I was totally baffled. I pointed at my nephew, who was chatting with guests outside the venue, and said, "What substitute? Ask your husband if he dares to treat his own aunt as a substitute. Does he want his whole family to beat him up? Does he want his company to go bankrupt?" The comments went wild. [Oh crap, she's not a substitute but his aunt? The sweetheart's messed up big time!]

I went to look for you, but you found my disfigured face ugly. You said I was lying because I was jealous of Elaine and threw me out!"Wendy trembled, clearly feeling emotional."I was frustrated and wanted to come take one last look at you, but Elaine actually came up with a plan to frame me!"Nolan stepped back in shock, shaking his head in disbelief.Elaine, frightened, covered her face and backed away, but was rudely pushed back by the bodyguards behind her.I gently held Wendy's hands and spoke calmly, "Call the police. Let them handle this. I'll make sure all the culprits go to prison."Elaine instantly broke down, screaming for mercy, "No, I can't go to prison! I'm the young mistress of the Clark family!"Sandra tried to hug her to comfort her, but she clung to Nolan's leg and wouldn't let go."Help me, Nolan! I didn'
The comments were shocked:[Are they crazy? I thought it was just laxative. How could the sweetheart actually try to kill someone?][Wake up, everyone! From this moment on, Elaine is no longer a sweetheart!]I steadied my sister who almost fainted from rage and glanced at the contents of the report. It read: Highly toxic; symptoms appear two weeks after consumption, and the poison self-decomposes.What a vicious poison. It could kill without a trace.Nolan flipped through the report, flabbergasted."There's no way… There's no way… Elaine is such a kind girl. She even risked her life to save me!"He grasped Elaine's shoulders and questioned her anxiously, "Who came up with the plan? You didn't know it was poison, right?"He pointed at Sandra and Alfred. "Was it your mother or Alfred? Say something!"Elaine avoided his gaze, unable to reply.Sandra couldn't stand it anymore. She stepped in front of her daughter protectively."Nolan, it was my idea. It was all me! Elaine has no
I turned to Alfred with a mocking smile."Can we check the surveillance footage now, Alfred?"Alfred struggled to pull up the surveillance footage on the screen, sweating profusely.It was pitch black, with no footage.Under Andrew's deadly gaze, Alfred explained weakly, "I think the employee responsible for the monitoring system accidentally turned off the power. There's no footage from the last few hours."My sister scoffed and turned her head aside while her husband pointed a finger accusingly at Alfred."What nonsense is this?! Who would believe such a pathetic excuse? I'm the one who pays your salary, Andrew, not Elaine Geston!"He sighed in disappointment, then said to Alfred, "You're fired."Alfred immediately dropped to his knees, crying and begging."Sir, I know I made a mistake! I'm sorry! I have debts to pay, I can't lose my job!"He crawled to my feet, wailing, "Miss Betty, I'm sorry, you can punish me…"I ignored him, only instructing someone to drag him away.
The banquet hall erupted in chaos.Elaine screamed in disbelief, "Nolan, what did you just call her? How can this woman possibly be your aunt?"Nolan helped me up from the floor and replied impatiently, "Why can't she? This is my Aunt Betty! I won't mistake my own aunt!"The comments went wild:[No way! She really is the male lead's aunt? This is a disaster for the sweetheart!][Oh my, so she's the youngest daughter in the family. Those are usually doted on by the whole family. The male lead might get punished too, not just the sweetheart!]Elaine's face turned as pale as paper, and she swayed unsteadily.Nolan asked me urgently, "Aunt, who hurt you? If my parents and Grandma find out, they'll definitely…"Before he had even finished, he seemed to have realized something. He looked at Elaine angrily.I smirked and confirmed his suspicion."Your lovely wife set up a trap to frame me for poisoning the wine."I pointed at the trembling Alfred and Sandra behind Elaine."Your mo
