Two months ago...
It had only been a month since her grandfather, elder Chen passed away. Chen Yi was still in mourning. She expected her other family members to be in a familiar state but unbeknownst to her, they had already started scheming against her.
Chen Yi's eyes were wide as she stared in terror. "It was not me!"
"Chen Yi, are you still going to deny it? Yang Mi had said she had seen her you deliver the food package with her own eyes." Her aunt, Ye Zhouyan said.
"I had delivered the package but—"
"See husband, I told you that it was her! Do you still think we can keep someone like her in our home? Today, she has conspired to kill Fu Liling. Tomorrow, she will conspire to kill all of us!"
"But I didn't put anything. Uncle, Aunt please trust me!" Chen Yi was panicked. She glanced around in search of a trace of trust or warmth from the people she considered her family.
However, all she found on their faces was coldness.
