Skyler saw that Lynn, who asked Jocelyn to make jewelry, was also a victim.
This made him believe Yale, who told him that the Claude family’s enemy might be the one who tampered with the drinks.
After all, Lynn was the prospective daughter-in-law that was recognized by the Claude family and she was also a victim of this. This matter was most likely aimed at the Claude family.
Skyler was staring at the list when he heard Jocelyn say, “Mr. Moore, this is the printed design draft, I will draw the original as soon as possible.”
Skyler turned to Jocelyn. “What do you think about what happened last night?”
Jocelyn was slightly startled, her expression looked a little unnatural, but she said quickly, “I was going to talk to you about this. I suspect Lynn was the one who did it because I only drank the wine she handed me last night. Plus, she and Yvonne are best friends and I poured wine on Yvonne last night, so if Lynn wanted to avenge Yvonne, it would make sense.”
Especially when she thought of Lexie telling her to stay away from Lynn; she even felt that Lynn showed nasty signs when she handed her the drink while apologizing and thanking her
As a result, when Skyler heard what Jocelyn said, he said, “But Lynn was also a victim.”
Jocelyn was stunned for a second as if she did not understand what he meant. “What did you say?”
Skyler’s eyes glistened and he repeated, “Lynn was just like you last night, and there was a problem with her drink too. Not only you and her, but the people who left early last night left because something was
wrong with their drinks. My initial suspicion is that they’re targeting the Claude family and you were close to Zayn last night.”
Jocelyn was completely dumbfounded. She had been very suspicious of Lynn, but now she heard
that Lynn was also a victim.
After listening to what Skyler said, she suddenly became confused. “I see.”
If she was the only one, she could still say that Lynn did it, but now, Lynn herself was also a victim.
The most important thing was that there were other victims as well which made the whole thing extremely confusing all of a sudden
Seeing Jocelyn’s dazed expression, Skyler said, “If the other party doesn’t have a grudge against the Claude family, there’s no need to cause such a huge commotion at Mrs. Claude’s birthday party Many of the victims can’t find out who was the perpetrator behind the scenes and in the future, they will definitely be cautious around the Claude family”
Jocelyn’s expression darkened She looked up at Skyler. “Do you think they did that to shift people’s attention away?”
Skyler’s pupils contracted slightly. “What did you say?”
Jocelyn took a deep breath. “I mean, they want to seek revenge on one of the victims but they
don’t want us to find out who. So, they only drugged some of the drinks. The more people were fallen victim, the more people would think that they were after the Claude family.
“This will not only divert the direction of everyone investigating, but it’ll also shift people’s suspicion of them. Moreover, the people behind the scenes will be able to hide better. It is even possible that the culprit is also one of the victims, so they can better confuse everyone.”
Skyler’s face was serious. “You mean, the other party might be trying to cover themselves by doing so?”
Jocelyn pursed her lips. “I just came up with another possible guess.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Skyler was silent for a few seconds, then said, “So, you’re still doubting Lynn, right?”

Jocelyn did not affirm or deny it, instead, she said, “I can’t rule out any possibilities.”
Skyler looked at her, feeling that the longer he had known her, the less he actually knew this
woman.
He opened his mouth and said, “No matter which possibility it is, we have to show evidence. Yale said that the waiter who was involved in tampering with the drinks disappeared last night. We shall wait until we find him.”
Jocely nodded and did not say anything.
Skyler took the printed design from her hand. “I need to go out for a bit. You should use this time to draw the original design draft.”
Skyler left and Jocelyn went upstairs to draw.
At the same time, Claude Mansion.
The Claude family knew what happened last night and they were in terrible shape the entire morning and they were calling every victim’s family to apologize.
Zayn walked out of the study with a tired look on his face. He would never expect that something like this would happen at his mother’s birthday party.
A nice birthday party was not what happened last night.
After he took two steps, he saw the door of the guest room opening.
Lynn walked out of the room with a pale face. When she spotted Zayn, her eyes turned red.
Zayn looked at her and averted his gaze. He then walked out like he did not know her.
Tears welled in Lynn’s eyes as she clenched her hands tightly. This time, the entire Claude family would not allow her to marry into this family, let alone Zayn.
She never expected things to develop to this stage.
In fact, Jocelyn was right
Lynn was the one behind what happened last night so that was why there were so many victims.
Her goal was to not let anyone find out that she was related to this
As for the waiter who tampered with the drinks, he was originally using a fake name and before the party ended, she already arranged for him to get on a plane to fly overseas.
In this situation, it would be very hard for them to investigate even if they could find something
Plus, she was also a victim, so no one would suspect her.
However, it was also her plan to make herself a victim.
She felt unwell, so she felt she should tell Zayn’s mother.
