A Billionaire Husband

Chapter 3

Xin waved his big hand and ordered, "Call the family doctor over to check what's in the bird's nest soup."

He knew that his two daughters had never gotten along. Jennie, the daughter of his first wife, was the spoiled one, while Krystal, the daughter of his second wife, was more tolerant. Only with solid evidence could they solve this conflict.

The family doctor soon arrived with professional tools and began examining the soup.

"Krystal, give me your phone," Xin added.

"Jennie knocked it to the ground! I haven't touched it until now," Krystal cried pitifully.

Xin picked up the phone from the ground and opened the call log. It showed that a call had been made around ten minutes ago, and the time matched what Jennie had claimed.

Jennie took a sideways glance at the call log. She wanted to see how Krystal could deny it with this solid evidence.

Xin dialed the unknown number that the call had been made to. Soon, an automated voice said, "Please press 1 for balance inquiries, and press 2 for the payment..."

Jennie's pretty face darkened. How could this be? Just now, Krystal had called someone right in front of her eyes and asked some bodyguards to come over to r**e her, but she had snatched the phone away before Krystal could finish her words. Therefore, it was impossible for the call log to have been tampered with.

However, the call log clearly proved that the last call had been made to the telecommunications company.

Everyone looked at Jennie with suspicion and disappointment.

Krystal cried bitterly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

Jennie clenched her fists tightly. How could it be? Something didn't add up.

Fortunately, the family doctor could be trusted, so she turned to him and asked, "Doctor Wen, what have you found?"

"Miss Jennie, there is nothing strange in the bird's nest soup," Doctor Wen replied softly.

"But it tasted strange when I ate it. And Krystal even admitted that she drugged it..." Back then, Krystal had spoken in such a cold tone that the memory was clearly etched in Jennie's mind.

"There's really nothing strange in it, Miss Jennie," Doctor Wen emphasized again.

"Jennie, I told you, I've never wanted to hurt you." Krystal still looked aggrieved, immediately gaining sympathy from everyone who saw her.

Kai also looked at her gently to comfort her.

Compared with Jennie, who was poised and elegant even in this situation, Krystal looked pitiful.

Finally, an idea flashed through Jennie's mind.

She suddenly understood everything! From the beginning, there had been no drugs in the soup. Krystal had pretended to make that phone call. She had orchestrated the whole situation to trick Jennie into accusing her, so that when the truth was revealed, Jennie would be unable to defend herself, and would lose everyone's trust.

Turning around to look at her father, Jennie explained anxiously, "Dad, I know what's going on. Krystal did all this on purpose too..."

Before Jennie could finish, Xin slapped her across the face.

Everyone was slightly shocked by the slap.

The atmosphere turned awkward and uncomfortable.

Krystal, who was standing behind Xin, raised her chin and flashed a triumphant smile at Jennie.

However, Jennie was not in the mood to look at Krystal. She covered her burning cheek and looked at her father in disbelief.
