Chapter 471 Dinner
Ophelia signaled the nanny to take Warmie away. Today, since Niamh dared to come here, Ophelia wanted to ask Niamh directly if she had a conscience.
The nanny carried Warmie away, and Ophelia said coldly, "Niamh, if you want to live longer, you better behave yourself."
"Are you so afraid?" Niamh sneered, "You kicked me out, took over the company, and framed my mom, and now you're scared? Today is your daughter's banquet, and I came here with good intentions to bless her. Why so stingy?"
"Blessing, huh?" Ophelia stepped forward. "A guest is a guest. You're right. There's no reason to kick guests out. Since then, sit down, and let's have a drink here."
Seeing Ophelia inviting her for dinner, Niamh hesitated, wondering what Ophelia was up to.
"What? Are you scared? You're Niamh. What are you afraid of? Afraid I'll poison the food?" Ophelia retorted, throwing Niamh's words back at her.
Niamh gritted her teeth. "I'm not afraid! Of course, I'll have this meal."
"Please." Ophelia made a gesture of invitation, inviting Niamh to sit down.
Ophelia had the hotel set up a separate table with dishes different from the others.
There were only four simple dishes on the table, but each dish was incompatible. Some were poisonous, and some were harmful to the human body.
Finnegan initially discussed matters with Mark, Walker, and others. Celia hurriedly found him and told him that Ophelia had kept Niamh for dinner, so he rushed over.
The banquet hall was bustling with a hundred tables and thousands of guests. Even Finnegan needed to find out who all the guests were.
Ophelia and Niamh were seated at the far end. When Niamh saw the dishes on the table, her expression changed drastically. Niamh had studied incompatible foods and could naturally tell at a glance that the dishes on the table were incompatible.
"Please." Ophelia personally poured wine for Niamh. "Maybe it's indeed our fate. We first met at Parks Corporation, and then because of Sybil and Seraphina, we had many interactions. Later on, we even became cousins. What fate it is! It's worth a toast. But the first toast is to Sybil."
Ophelia picked up the wine glass and poured the wine on the ground.
"Sybil's death is suspicious. She was murdered and run over by a car, just like how you killed her mother back then. Quite a coincidence, isn't it?"
Niamh pretended to be calm. "Sybil deserved to die! She tampered with the brakes of my car. I hadn't even settled the score with her, and she died. That's karma. I don't know who did it, but it relieved me!"
When Finnegan approached, Ophelia had already poured a second glass of wine on the ground.
"This one is for Seraphina. Her murderer has been caught, but the real person who killed her is still at large." Ophelia stared coldly at Niamh. "Seraphina is someone who will always seek revenge. Whoever offends her or harms her, she will never let go of it. Niamh, when you go to sleep tonight, you better pray, or else Seraphina may appear in your dreams."
"She was a greedy person. What can she do?" Niamh sneered, "Ophelia, are you feeling guilty, afraid that Seraphina will come after you? It makes sense that you and she are fighting over a man. Everything you have today should have been hers. Ophelia, did you ever dream of Seraphina at night?"
"I did." Ophelia said with a cold smile, "Do you want to know what Seraphina told me in the dream?"
"No. Seraphina tried to extort money from me and kept asking me for money. Such a wicked person deserves no good ending. She even falsely accused me in the past. Luckily, the police found out the truth and restored justice."
Facing Niamh's unyielding attitude, Ophelia remained unfazed.
Ophelia calmly placed crab and persimmons in Niamh's bowl. "Try it. This is specially ordered for you."
Niamh didn't dare to eat it. Ophelia said, "You don't like it? Then try the cheese and lemon juice. It's delicious. Emerson said you were very filial before, personally cooking a few dishes for my mom. It seems you have a good understanding of food, so you should try it and give your opinion."
Cheese with lemon juice was poisonous.
