Chapter 355

Renee could hardly believe what she was seeing.

She widened her eyes and held the papers up to Isabella, incredulous. "Isabella, did you lose your baby because of this?"

How could these things be here?

Was she seeing things?

But the medical terms and dense data analysis were clearly written on the papers, all of which she had painstakingly developed through countless sleepless nights.

Isabella wiped the tears from her face and explained to Renee in a hoarse voice, "The doctor said my body shouldn't have reacted so severely. It must be because of this."

"And this data was found in the remaining milk. Renee, do you know something?"

Renee had been the one to discover the problem with the milk, and Isabella's intuition told her that Renee knew something.

"Yeah."

Renee responded heavily, gripping the data tightly in her hands, avoiding any eye contact with Isabella.

"Isabella, it's my fault. I never thought they would be so ruthless."

Before she could finish, Renee burst into tears.

Isabella didn't know what had happened, but she was willing to trust Renee.

"Renee, don't be like this. This isn't your fault. It must be Bianca's doing. Even though I can't expose the group behind her yet, it doesn't mean I'll let them get away with it. Whether it's Bianca or the people behind her, I won't let any of them off the hook."

"No, it's my fault!"

Renee cried out, feeling the need to confess the truth. How could she face Isabella's kindness and Daniel's hospitality otherwise?

"Isabella, it was me. I caused you to lose your baby."

Michael's eyes darkened as he stepped in front of Renee and demanded, "What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"

Isabella sensed something was wrong but didn't want to think the worst. "Renee, take your time. I believe you."

Renee bit her lip, as if making a difficult decision.

"Isabella, I'm telling the truth. I caused your baby's death because the toxic substance found in the milk was something I developed."

She had originally gone abroad on a scholarship to use her pharmaceutical talents for the greater good, but the Adri Family had targeted her.

To control her, they had threatened her mother's life.

So she had locked herself in the lab day and night, developing various experiments and drugs for them.

This time, because she shared the same nationality as Bianca, she had been sent back home.

"Renee, do you know what you're saying?"

Isabella's eyes widened as she looked at Renee, her body trembling uncontrollably, but her rational mind told her that Renee wouldn't commit such a crime.

If she were capable of such things, she wouldn't be hunted by the people behind her.

"Aren't you a cosmetic doctor? How do you know how to develop these things?"

In Isabella's mind, Renee was Bianca's subordinate, but her job was managing a beauty salon.

But now Renee was telling her that the poison that killed her baby was her doing?

Renee knew she couldn't hide her identity any longer and didn't intend to keep it from Isabella.

She pointed to the final results on the test report and said, "This poison is an experimental drug I was forced to develop, labeled T5. It can quickly dissolve in water and cause rapid poisoning within seconds, but it leaves no trace afterward."

"And it's specifically designed for pregnant women."

Ordinary people would only suffer for a short time before metabolizing it, but even a tiny amount could cause a miscarriage in pregnant women.

The initial purpose of this drug was as a weapon in the power struggles of wealthy families abroad.

Someone had paid a high price for it, prompting the Adri Family to have her develop it.

Knowing she couldn't reverse the outcome, she had secretly reduced the toxin's harm to the mother. As long as the baby was lost, the mother wouldn't be affected.

"The drug quickly harms the mother's body, causing severe bleeding. Trying to save the baby would only harm both the mother and the child, but ultimately, the baby couldn't be saved. The best option was to terminate the pregnancy."

Renee couldn't continue.

Fortunately, the Wilson Family had prioritized Isabella's safety over the baby's, or the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Because she had personally developed the drug, she was well aware of the process and results.

But Isabella frowned. "According to you, this drug leaves no trace. So why were there milk residues in my stomach?"

"It's the milk. I said the drug dissolves in water, but that doesn't mean it can dissolve quickly in all liquids. Milk hindered its metabolism."

Renee hadn't expected the Adri Family to overlook this detail.

But it wasn't always detectable. Isabella had found out early. If it had been another half hour, even the milk would have been digested without a trace.

With these explanations, all of Isabella's questions were answered.

Others might not know Renee's special identity, but Michael certainly did.

Now it was clear that the drug that killed the baby was developed by Renee, which indirectly confirmed one thing.

The person who poisoned her was Bianca!

"Isabella, I don't expect your forgiveness. I just wanted to tell you the truth. I'm truly sorry. I didn't know the drug I made for them would be used on you."

Renee sincerely apologized to Isabella.

But she knew that no matter how many remorseful words she said, the baby couldn't come back.

But Isabella shook her head. She wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong.

The drug was used by Bianca to target at her. No matter how much she blamed anyone or regretted drinking that glass of milk, the baby was gone.

If she continued to dwell on this, she wouldn't be able to avenge her baby and would only exhaust herself.

She sighed and looked at Renee with a calm tone.

"Renee, I know your character. This isn't your fault."

"And working for those people wasn't your choice. No one can control how the drugs they make are used. How could I blame you for this?"

The result was clear. The baby was gone, and what she wanted most was to sever ties with Michael.

In her future, he would no longer exist.
