Beast Love Show: All For Her (by Sylvester Raven) novel Chapter 431

Chapter 431 A Large Sum of Money

The live chat kept flooding with wild guesses.

Layla walked over to Stella and slowly dropped into a squat. She stared down at her with a blank unreadable face.

She let out a long breath. “Stella, you need to understand-you cannot get away with hurting people in this world. What good does all the Grant family’s power and influence do you anyway?”

As Layla lifted her hand, Shane stepped forward and handed over a jug of healing herbal juice.

Layla pried Stella’s jaw open and poured the antidote down her throat.

The herbal mixture calmed Stella right away. Her eyes rolled back, and she passed out cold.

Scarlett walked up to Layla, looking at her with clear admiration. “Did you know she planned to attack you all along?”

Layla smiled but said nothing.

Even though Scarlett held no ill will toward her, Layla would never be foolish enough to admit that out in front of every online viewer.

That would be practically confessing that she had poisoned Stella herself.

Layla shrugged and spoke in a calm, casual tone. “I have no idea what got into her. Maybe bad people just get what they deserve.”

She turned toward the panicked Grant family staff standing nearby. “Hurry up and get your young lady medical help.”

Her words snapped them out of their daze. They scrambled frantically and dragged Stella away.

Layla’s gaze drifted from Stella’s retreating figure over to Julian.

She mouthed for him to come to their wooden cabin later that night.

A flicker of genuine joy crossed Julian’s face when he read her lips.

The serum that suppresses the Berserker Serum must be finished.

I will finally break free from Stella’s control.

Julian pushed his excitement down and quietly followed along behind the Grant family staff and Stella.

He stayed by Stella’s side and watched the Grant family crew fall into total chaos.

Ciara opened a video call to him right then.

She tore into him the second the connection went through. “I put you in charge of watching over Stella- are you completely useless?”

Chapter 431 A Large Sum of Money

Anger flickered across Julian’s handsome features, but he quickly forced a flattering smile onto his face.

said, “Ms. Ciara Grant, I had to talk to Layla’s male companions after delivering the wine to keep her from growing suspicious. Those were Ms. Stella Grant’s orders, and I dared not disobey.”

Ciara’s eyes turned dark and sharp. “Then how on earth did Stella end up poisoned?”

Julian swallowed hard under Ciara’s menacing stare. He cleared his throat and kept his voice as steady as he could. “I found the substance exactly as she requested. I never touched the wine-Ms. Stella Grant put the poison in it herself. I still cannot explain why Ms. Stella Grant got sick instead of Layla.”

Ciara’s expression turned gloomy.

She was certain Layla had something to do with this mess, but she had zero proof.

If she pushed for an investigation, the trail would circle straight back to Stella and make everything worse for her own side.

Ciara closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

When she opened them again, her tone was ice-cold. “If anyone finds out Stella had a hand in this poisoning, you will take the blame for her. Otherwise, you will never get another dose of the Berserker

Serum.”

A bitter thought crossed Julian’s mind.

Just as I expected. Luckily, I was smart enough to tell Layla about it ahead of time.

Ciara’s threats no longer scared him.

Still, he put on a fearful, urgent act and nodded in agreement. “You have my word, Ms. Ciara Grant. If anyone finds out what happened, I will tell them I acted out of resentment for how Layla treated Ms. Stella Grant. It will have nothing to do with Ms. Stella Grant.”

Ciara seemed satisfied with his answer and gave a short nod. “You know your place. Rest assured, you will receive a large sum of money once this blows over.”

Julian put on a show of overwhelming gratitude, though scorn burned inside him.

A large sum of money? Please.

If he took the fall for the poisoning, he would end up locked away in interstellar prison, with the whole galaxy watching the live broadcast.

No one would hire him after his release.
