As soon as Selena said those words, the entire banquet hall fell into a stunned silence.
Everyone turned to look at her in disbelief. Keira seemed completely taken aback.
Even Keira froze in shock, while Ellie's eyes quickly filled with tears.
“Gavin, you have cancer? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?”
Tears rolled down her cheeks, harder than when she'd found out about Darien's betrayal. “How could this happen…?”
Gavin wanted to reassure her, to tell her it wasn't true, but before he could get the words out, he bent over and vomited again.
His peanut allergy had been treated quickly, so it wasn't too serious. After throwing up the rest of the peanut butter, he was already feeling a lot better.
He couldn't speak, so Selena took the lead. “He was just diagnosed recently. Babe, you can't leave me. What will I do if something happens to you?”
She turned to Ryan, grabbing his arm. “You have to stand up for him, Ryan!”
Ryan shot her a cold look before glancing over at Keira and asking calmly, “Stand up for him against what?”
“They knew about Gavin's condition,” Selena insisted. “My uncle and aunt must've poisoned him on purpose! They're still mad because you wouldn't cooperate with them, so they're taking it out on Gavin. My poor husband… It's all my fault.”
As she sobbed, she felt the urge to vomit herself.
What was going on today?
Why did her stomach feel so unsettled?
But Selena gritted her teeth and kept going. Her attention remained laser-focused on “Keera”. All she wanted was for the Cobb and Horton families to completely fall out with each other.
And when Gavin died, she'd still have Ryan backing her up, allowing her to stay with the Cobb family.
Thinking of this, Selena's tears flowed even harder.
Even Ellie turned to Keira in concern. “Keera, what's going on? Why was there something in the soup?”
Keira sighed. “It wasn't me. That kind of stuff isn't something anyone would have just lying around the house. It's not like it's standard kitchen seasoning.”
Ellie nodded quickly. “You're right, I don't believe you'd do this.”
Selena cut in again, “Ellie, you can't believe her. If it wasn't her, who else could it be? This is the Horton house!”
She stood up and pointed accusingly at Keira. “Uncle Lewis, ever since you married this woman, everything's been falling apart! Our family used to get along so well. We were like one big happy family, but ever since she stepped foot in this house, everything's been in chaos!”
