Fake Daughter Is The Real Legend (Iris Sutton) novel Chapter 178

Rupert’s eyes widened. “When was that?”

:..

“A few days ago,” Iris replied evenly. “I came here with my parents.”

Only then did Rupert remember.

A few days earlier, members of all the major families had come to visit the elderly matriarch.

That must have been when she’d seen him.

A cold sweat instantly broke out across his back.

“This girl’s no pushover.‘

‘If we let her continue, she might actually wake the old woman up.‘

And then it’ll all be over.

Rumi Young looked at Iris and said firmly,‘ “Iris, you’re not a member of the Young family. You shouldn’t interfere so much in our family’s affairs. Transferring my mother to another hospital is absolutely out of the question. If you insist on it, then I’d rather leave the rest of her treatment to our own two doctors.”

Those words delighted Rupert.

As expected of my sister.‘

Rumi glanced at Evelyn Young, who lay motionless in bed, and sighed. “Besides, you’ve already treated her twice. I don’t see much improvement, so I think..”

“Mom!” Julie tugged hard on her mother’s arm again. She pointed toward the hospital bed. “I just saw Grandma’s hand move!”

The room fell silent.

Everyone crowded around Evelyn’s bed, staring intently at her hand.

Nothing happened.

“Are you sure you didn’t imagine it?” Rupert watched more carefully than anyone else.

As far as he could tell, her hand hadn’t moved at all.

“I’m sure! I really sa-”

Julie stopped midway through the sentence. She noticed Iris giving her a subtle shake of the head.

Swallowing the rest of her words, she fell silent.

Iris quietly set the fruit basket she’d brought beside Evelyn’s bed.

“I’ve only made a recommendation. Whether you accept it is your decision.”

“Tomorrow will be the final session of the first treatment cycle. After that comes a two–week recovery period.”

“I won’t be coming during that time.”

After placing the fruit basket down, she packed up her things and headed toward the door.

Julie was the first to react. “I’ll walk you out!”

The two of them walked all the way outside the villa.

Julie asked anxiously, “Does Grandma really have to be transferred to the hospital?”

“The person poisoning your grandma is still inside the Young family. If she stays here, she’ll only be in greater danger.”

The problem was…

The Young family didn’t believe her.

And Iris certainly couldn’t kidnap a bedridden patient and force her into a hospital.

Julie grabbed her arm. “You mean… that person is still going to try to kill my

grandmother? What am I supposed to do?”

When Evelyn had been healthy, she had always treated Julie kindly.

Among all the elders in the Young family, she was one of the few Julie truly loved.

Iris wasn’t someone who made reckless claims.

If she said Evelyn was in danger…

Then she truly was.

Looking back now, Julie realized that neither Rumi nor Rupert seemed especially concerned about Evelyn herself.

They cared more about preserving the family’s reputation.

Ever since returning to the Noir family after leaving the Suttons, Iris had become increasingly able to distinguish genuine family affection from empty appearances.

“If you trust me… for the next few nights, stay in your grandma’s room.”

“And keep something nearby to protect yourself.”

According to the information she’d uncovered, the underground casino was pressing Rupert harder every day. He wouldn’t wait much longer before making

his move.

“The one trying to kill your grandmother…”

“…is someone from the Young family.”

Having said all she intended to say, Iris walked out through the gates of the Young residence.

Julie remained frozen where she stood.

Someone…

Inside their own family…

Wanted to murder Grandma?

After thinking it over again and again, she decided to trust Iris. She told Rumi that she wanted to spend more time talking to her grandmother and moved into Evelyn’s room, setting up a small bed beside hers.

As a result, the room became much busier than before.

Julie still had work as an online creator, and the household staff came and went constantly to assist her.

Rupert couldn’t find an opportunity.

He waited several days.

Eventually, he couldn’t wait any longer.

If he didn’t get the money soon…

He was going to die.

On a moonless, windy night… Rupert quietly slipped into Evelyn Young’s bedroom.

There had originally been surveillance cameras in the room. But Steven’s people had sabotaged them long ago.

Julie slept soundly. She had always been a heavy sleeper.

Carefully stepping around her bed, Rupert crept toward Evelyn.

Suddenly, something near the bedside reflected a flash of light.

His heart nearly leapt out of his chest. He almost stumbled backward.

When he realized what it was, his hatred for Iris deepened.
