Chapter 30 Chapter 30: Stacy had already chosen to align herself with Sansa. After all, how could Tiffany, who was seen as worthless and universally disliked, possibly defeat Sansa? Anyone with a bit of sense would choose Sansa's side However, before she could speak up, Marissa interjected, “Who says I haven't brought honor to the family? I've made significant strides in my medical practice. Just the other day, Mrs. Arabella Daniels was in a critical situation, and the doctors had given up on her. Yet, I managed to save her. My medical skills are improving rapidly." Ayla scoffed immediately. "We're discussing how you ruined Grandpa's soup, not your supposed medical achievements! Even if you becas skilled as the renowned healer Riss, you'd still be punished for ruining Grandpa's soup!" Marissa simply smiled and chose to remain silent Stacy hesitated, holding back her intended remarks. She had heard about Tiffany's miraculous save of Arabella. Though ssaid it was just luck, who was to say Tiffany couldn't pull off another miracle today, potentially against her? If she crossed Sansa, the worst she faced was losing her job and the Nash family's hefty salary. But angering Tiffany today, particularly with the surveillance footage gone, might be life-threatening. If Tiffany decided to retaliate, Stacy might die without any proof of being poisoned Latest chapters in glAfter wrestling with her thoughts, Stacy completely reversed her stance. Drawing a deep breath, she said, "I was with Zoe and Nia when we were taking the Longevity Soup to Mr. Nash. But on the way, Zoe made a mistake, and when Nia scolded her, Zoe lost her temper and threw the soup in Nia's face." Everyone turned to look at Stacy, surprised by her explanation. Initially, they believed Tiffany was being ignorant and arrogant, taking advantage of her marriage into the Daniels family to behave recklessly. Following a heated argument between both sides, they began to suspect Sansa of setting Tiffany up. But now, a third narrative emerged a mere conflict between the housekeeper and a maid had escalated As Ayla didn't receive the confirmation she wanted, her patience snapped, and she slapped Stacy hard. "You liar, how dare you make up such stories!" Stacy fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded, "Miss Nash, I swear I'm telling the truth. That's exactly how it happened. Even if you kill me, I won't change my story. I'm not lying." Ayla, unable to press further without seeming tyrannical, had to back down. Coercing a confession would only reinforce the notion that they were trying to frTiffany. Nearby, Nia and Zoe glared at Stacy, stunned by her unexpected defiance of Sansa's implicit directive Zoe, being lowly and unable to speak, could only seethe with anger. However, Nia, used to wielding power within the Nash family, lost her composure immediately. She grabbed Stacy by the hair and slapped her hard, yelling, "You little bitch, how dare you slander me? I'll beat you to death!" "Ah! Help!" Stacy's cries of pain echoed through the hall The Nash family, renowned in the medical field, watched the unfolding violence with a mix of shock and embarrassment. Sansa, witnessing her housekeeper and maid creating such a spectacle, felt her cheeks burn with embarrassment and mentally scolded Nia, "Fool!" Even though she inwardly scolded Nia, her instinct was to protect her. Nia had been a devoted servant for many years, after all However, the chaos had spiraled out of control. Balthasar would never forgive someone who had ruined his Longevity Soup. Balthasar banged his fist on the table and shouted, "Throw this disrespectful woman out! Banish her from Blebert, and make sure she's never employed again!" Startled by Balthasar's outburst, Nia realized her mistake. She should have demonstrated her innocence regarding the soup first. "Mr. Nash, please, letexplain-" But no one was going to give her a chance to explain. Several bodyguards stepped forward and dragged Nia away like a dead dog
As Zoe and Stacy trembled, Balthasar dismissed them with a wave of his hand and said, "Get rid of them too. Fire them!"
Stacy and Zoe were quickly dragged out. Silence then settled over the hall. Sansa felt a stab of pain at the loss of Nia, her fiercely loyal servant. She silently wished she could skin Marissa alive. Ayla, visibly shaken and not ready to concede, turned to Balthasar and said
