Crystal Joyce’s lips curled into a sinister smile, intending to smash the bottle full of Soul Hooking Fragrance.
The Soul Hooking Fragrance only needed a little to make soone lose consciousness, and a bit more could control their mind. With such a heavy dose now, it was enough for her to control everyone’s mind!
But Serena’s movents were faster than hers. Before Crystal could react, the Soul Hooking Fragrance was snatched from her hand.
"Serena, what are you doing?!"
Seeing the Soul Hooking Fragrance taken away, Crystal’s expression changed instantly.
However, Serena ignored her, instead bringing the Soul Hooking Fragrance to Old Mrs. Quinn, "Grandma, don’t you find this scent familiar?"
Because Old Mrs. Quinn had taken the antidote that was developed, the Soul Hooking Fragrance had no effect on her anymore.
"Familiar! It’s that strange scent!" Old Mrs. Quinn exclaid after slling it, her expression suddenly becoming agitated, "It was after I slled this scent that I started becoming confused and ntally unclear, as if controlled!"
"This is the Soul Hooking Fragrance. Those who sll it will gradually beco dazed, lose their senses, and eventually beco puppets to be controlled."
As Serena finished speaking, Crystal’s face looked even worse, and she quickly spoke, "This is just a regular perfu bottle, I’ve never heard of any Soul Hooking Fragrance, and how could sothing exist in this world that can control people’s minds!"
Saying this, Crystal bit her lip, her eyes slightly red, looking weak and aggrieved.
"Serena, I know you don’t like and want to drive away from Grandma Quinn and Damian’s side, but you can’t slander like this!"
"Your acting is quite good."
Serena looked at Crystal’s pitiful appearance, sneering.
"What a pity you didn’t go into acting."
"Grandma Quinn... Damian, you have to trust ..."
Crystal cried several sobs, looking pitiful, stirring sympathy.
"I didn’t... How could I possibly do such a thing? I don’t even know what this Soul Hooking Fragrance is!"
Seeing this, the butler couldn’t help but speak, "Yes, Old Mrs. Quinn, Master Damian, Miss Crystal is the kindest, and she is also the most filial to you, Old Mrs. Quinn. How could she possibly do anything to harm you..."
Old Mrs. Quinn’s face showed a bit of hesitation; naturally, she believed Serena, but Crystal was a child she had watched grow up, and she really didn’t want to believe she had any harmful intent!
"Grandma, let give you an acupuncture."
Serena didn’t speak any unnecessary words, quickly and precisely pricking Old Mrs. Quinn’s acupoint with a silver needle.
"It was... you!"
With that needle, Old Mrs. Quinn’s eyes grew clearer, and whatever she thought of made her face turn several shades paler, realizing for the first ti how unfamiliar Crystal seed.
"I rember now, it was you who made sll this strange fragrance, after which there was a voice in my head urging to fall from the second floor, and I was like a demon, throwing myself from the second floor!"
Old Mrs. Quinn had been under the control of the Soul Hooking Fragrance for too long, her mind just now cleared, vaguely rembering the events of the past few days, and now, with Serena’s acupuncture, everything ca flooding back.
"The Quinn Family never treated you poorly, and I have always been good to you, yet you did such a thing!!!"
Old Mrs. Quinn looked at Crystal with eyes full of disappointnt and deep distress.
How on earth did this bitch Serena manage to break her Soul Hooking Fragrance?!
Seeing Old Mrs. Quinn completely awake, Crystal felt an intense chill coursing down her back, her face turning ghastly pale.
It was over, everything was over!
Old Mrs. Quinn clutched her heart, speaking with deep sorrow, "You have truly disappointed !"
She really didn’t expect that the child she had watched grow up, who always seed so gentle and kind, would treat her like this!
The situation exposed, Crystal decided not to pretend anymore, glaring viciously at Old Mrs. Quinn.
"You treated well? Ha, how laughable!"
"You know well what’s in my heart, yet you chose Serena, a woman who grew up in the countryside, as the future mistress of the Quinn Family!"
Hearing her words, Old Mrs. Quinn felt even more disappointed in her.
"Not to ntion that Serena and Damian’s engagent was set from childhood, just because you like Damian, does he have to marry you? More than anyone, you know Damian doesn’t like you!"
"Furthermore, your love for Damian isn’t genuine; you’re more interested in his power!"
Crystal’s most secretive thoughts were laid bare by Old Mrs. Quinn, making her blush with embarrassnt and her face burn hot.
She hadn’t expected this damned old woman to see through her intentions long ago!
Damian Quinn knew that Grandma’s unusual behavior lately was linked to Crystal, but he hadn’t expected her daring enough to use Soul Hooking Fragrance to control Grandma and push her down the second floor.
"You’ve got so nerve!"
Damian’s srizing yet intimidating eyes were filled with murderous intent, the looming pressure around him chilling to the bone.
Crystal’s whole body was trembling, seized by overwhelming fear.
She knew for certain that neither Damian nor Serena would spare her, so she quickly suppressed her dark emotions, imdiately kneeling before Old Mrs. Quinn, and cried in a way that drew great pity.
"Grandma Quinn, I know I was wrong; I was blinded by greed and did such a thing! Please, Grandma Quinn, considering it’s my first offense, forgive this once..."
Old Mrs. Quinn hadn’t spoken yet when Serena’s cold voice rang out again.
"This isn’t the only evil you’ve done."
Crystal glanced at Serena with resentnt, but quickly returned to her pitiful act, "Serena, I know I was wrong, I genuinely want to repent, but why won’t you forgive ? Why must you slander !"
Serena knew Crystal would never admit to it, so her crimson lips curled into a cold smirk as she coldly ordered, "Bring them in!"
"Yes, Miss Serena!" Chase Sherman promptly answered respectfully.
Crystal sneered disdainfully; she had always been cautious, never leaving any loose ends.
Today was just a mont of carelessness that exposed her, but all her past deeds were flawlessly handled, and that bitch Serena would never find any evidence!
Chase Sherman: "Miss Serena, they’re here!"
Hearing this, Crystal’s disdain grew, but the mont she saw the incoming person, her face turned as white as a sheet, her hands clenched tightly in terror as if seeing a ghost.
"Silas... how are you still alive?!"
How could this be!
To ensure nothing went wrong, she had stabbed Silas with a knife sared with poison, leaving him dead for sure!
But why was he still alive?!
