Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 939

Elena was stunned.

It hit her all at once. Anna knew. She knew the soup was poisoned, and she drank it intentionally.

"Why did you poison her?!" Elena demanded, glaring at Scarlett. Hadn't she killed enough people? This woman had taken care of her for forty years!

"Hahaha! Why? Why don't you ask her?! Hahaha!" Scarlett burst into a mocking, venomous laugh.

Anna dropped to her knees, her voice trembling. "I'm sorry, Madam. It was all my fault. Decades ago, Mr. Sinclair threatened my family and bribed me into working for him."

"Yes! I never imagined that the person stabbing me in the back was you! No wonder my health was deteriorating so rapidly—it was you! You poisoned my food every single day. I suspected everyone in this house, but I never suspected you! You treacherous bitch, I've wanted to tear you to pieces for years!" Scarlett hissed through gritted teeth.

After Ethan's tragic accident years ago, Scarlett's blind devotion to Xavier shattered. She stopped being a foolish romantic and began plotting her revenge from the shadows. Eventually, she discovered that her most trusted confidante, Anna, was the one poisoning her. But she pretended not to notice. She didn't alert the enemy, quietly biding her time.

Now, her body was failing her, and Xavier was paralyzed in a hospital bed with no hope of recovery. It was finally time to eliminate this useless traitor.

"Madam... so you knew. You knew all along," Anna smiled bitterly. She thought Scarlett had only recently found out. She didn't realize Scarlett had known for years.

Anna had been blackmailed by Xavier, but out of guilt, she had occasionally swapped the lethal doses for harmless medicine. If she hadn't, Xavier's plan would have killed Scarlett decades ago. Furthermore, she had deliberately withheld critical information from Xavier to protect Scarlett. Deep down, Anna still harbored immense gratitude for the kindness the Turner family had shown her. She had spent the last several decades caring for Scarlett and Ethan with a heart full of guilt.

"This is for the best. I always knew this day would come. This way, the guilt won't crush me anymore. Madam, dying by your hand is the best ending I could ask for. I failed you. The Turner family saved me. Your mother arranged a good marriage for me and gave me a family. And yet, when Xavier threatened my family, I betrayed you. I am so sorry. Let this be my penance!"
