Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 367

"Peanuts? Farley had checked the menu in advance. No way." Ramona was sure of it.

After all, Lilliana was allergic to peanuts, and the Myers family would have taken note of that.

Gregory poured a cup of coffee for Ramona. "Don't worry. I checked with the chef who prepared the dinner, and they did use peanut butter."

"Then Jane..." Ramona still remembered my allergy to peanuts, "Did you break out in rashes yesterday because you ate peanuts?"

"Yeah, I wasn't paying attention when I ate." I nodded.

Then Gregory reminded, "Ramona, it's not just Jane who's allergic to peanuts."

"You mean..." Ramona caught on, her expression turning grave. "Indeed, Lilliana didn't show any allergic reactions, but is it possible she didn't eat those two pastries?"

"She did." Gregory was very sure in his response.

Ramona was puzzled. "How do you know?"

Gregory hesitated for a sec, looking kinda sheepish. "I hacked into the Myers family’s surveillance system and watched the entire reception from yesterday."

What?

Ramona choked a bit, not dwelling on it, but her expression darkened. "You mean..."

"Let's not discuss whether Jane is Lily or not," Gregory didn't put me on the spot, just said coldly, "But the Lilliana we have now seems like someone deliberately sent her to us."

"Grandma..." As soon as Gregory finished speaking, Lilliana walked in from the yard, her face as pale and doll-like as ever, without a hint of color.

Beside her stood Susan.
