Chapter 543
How could it be?
Alice’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at those transaction records. If those raffiaus hadn’t been sent by Yvette… then who had sent them?
She didn’t want to believe it, but the evidence Yvette presented left her no choice but to
believe her.
Yvette’s cold voice rang out. “You’ve been used.”
Upon hearing these words, Alice came to a realization. It was Lionell Those ruffians had been sent by Lionel!
It was no wonder that he had called her immediately after the assault. There was no way it was just a coincidence. She could only blame herself for letting hatred blind her, allowing herself
to be used!
He simply wanted to use her against Yvette!
“I know that this poison definitely isn’t yours. Someone had given it to you.”
Alice wouldn’t have had the ability to get her hands on this kind of poison–a poison never before seen in Croedal–on her own. There must have been a mastermind backing her.
Watching the expression on Alice’s face change again and again, Yvette continued to speak.
“That person used you as a pawn. You’ll be sentenced to at least ten years in prison for intentional poisoning. Are you really willing to spend ten precious years of your life behind bars, while the person who used you continues to walk free?”
Her tone was mild, but every word out of her mouth struck Alice deeply. She felt agitated.
Since Lionel dared to make a fool out of her, she’d make sure he also went down with her! Why should she suffer alone?
As soon as she thought this, she couldn’t wait to speak up. “I’ll tell you everything! You guessed right, this drug isn’t mine. Someone gave it to me.
“That, person is none other than Lionel Thomson! He called me over the phone and told me that I would be able to get my revenge if I did as he said.
“It was like he already knew what would happen. He sent a deaf and mute beggar to deliver the drug to me…”
Alice couldn’t help but grit her teeth as she reached this point of her story. No wonder he was so quick to act. He had long planned to use her as a pawn against Yvette!
Lionel Thomson…

2/2
Yvette’s eyes narrowed. She didn’t have much of an impression of him. She only vaguely remembered that he was always by Victoria’s side, protecting her.
They had never interacted much. Why would he go so far as to plan all this against her?
“I’m not lying! Everything I’m saying is true!”
Yvette couldn’t be bothered to listen to Alice’s screeching any longer. She turned and strode out of the interrogation room.
“Ms. Murray, you’re amazing. You had her confessing within such a short time!”
The interrogation officers had been watching everything from the sidelines. Initially, they had been greatly displeased about Yvette entering the room to interrogate the suspect.
She was just a young lady, after all. Even the interrogation officers, who had gone through professional training, hadn’t been able to make Alice reveal any key information, so how would she?
Who would’ve thought that she’d make Alice confess everything in just a short time!
Upon seeing Yvette walk out, Killian immediately went up to her. He handed her a small glass bottle. “Ms. Murray, this is what we found from searching Ms. Robertson’s residence!”
Yvette opened the bottle and took a sniff. She was already certain that this was the unknown poison that Alice put in the water.
“I’ll have to take this away for research in order to develop an antidote to cure the students.”
Naturally, Killian wouldn’t refuse such a request. He nodded vigorously. “No problem at all! Ms. Murray, their lives are in your hands!”
