Chapter 85

Chapter 85 * Ms . Holt , I never expected you to be so uncultured , " Dorothea snapped . Her piercing glare was sharper than anticipated . " But being uncultured is one thing . I didn't expect you to be so malicious , to think you'd stoop to such despicable acts . " Giselle found the comment strange and asked in return , " Mrs. Kane , what exactly do you mean by that ? " " What do I mean ?

" Dorothea looked at her with even more disdain and demanded , " What happened with my cat when it fell gravely ill ? Tell me the truth . " " Wait , Mrs. Kane , I don't understand . Wasn't your cat already sick before i saved it ? what's the issue now ? " At that moment , Catherine Montgomery , Dorothea's personal housekeeper , stepped forward . Her voice was sharp with accusation . " Stop trying to lie your way out ! On June 8th , I brought Mrs. Kane's cat to your pet clinic .

It only had a mild loss of appetite but was otherwise perfectly healthy . Yet after your treatment , it started deteriorating rapidly ! " Even after taking the cat to other clinics , nothing worked . It was literally on death's door when you conveniently appeared with some miracle cure . Admit it . This was all your doing from the start ! TM When Catherine finished , Anne jumped in to add fuel to the fire . " Exactly ! That was your plan all along , wasn't it ? You deliberately infected Mrs.

Kane's cat with feline panleukopenia and waited until it was at death's door . Then you swooped in like a hero , just to manipulate your way into Mrs. Kane's good graces and wor your way into the Kanes ' lives ! " Giselle was hopping mad . Her anger boiled over until she could barely speak But unfortunately , Dorothea seemed convinced entirely by their version of events . Her expression was one of disgust , as if she were looking at filth .

" I had wondered how such a young woman like you could pull off something that none of the other vets could manage , Bringing a cat from the brink with one injection was simply remarkable . I even admited you for it . " But now I see it . You're a vicious woman . As a veterinarian , to treat an animal like that . You're a disgrace to the entire profession and a shame to your father . " Everyone's insults had rolled off Giselle like water off a duck's back .

But Dorothea's razor - edged words struck deep , sending a chill through her from head to toe . At that point , Renee also chimed in with a feigned sigh , stoking the flames further , " Mrs. Kane , please calm down . If anyone's to blame , it's Tony and my fault for not raising her right , " There was even an incident at her clinic where negligence led to the death of several pets . I never imagined she'd turn her schemes on your family . I truly feel ashamed .

" Unable to stomach another word , Giselle looked at Dorothea and finnly said , " Mrs. Kane , if you genuinely believed your cat fell ill due to my clinic's negligence , then this is a serious accusation . Why don't we call the police and have them investigate this matter thoroughly ? " There's no need , " Dorothea scoffed . " I don't have time to waste on you .
