Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 42: Disgracing the Huo Siblings’ Reputation

"Yes, I was sent to the hospital by a man named Qi Han last night, and I was on an IV drip all night! Qing Lin, someone is trying to harm me, you have to stand up for me!" Lin Banxia's acting was over the top.

Huo Qinglin had initially wanted to catch evidence of her and Huo Yanting's **, but unexpectedly, the situation turned out to be far more disappointing than he had imagined.

"Banxia, I think you must be mistaken. No one is trying to harm you; maybe you just ate the wrong thing," Huo Qinglin said, not even bothering to show care.

"That's impossible! I have a medical report that says I was drugged with the powerful C drug. Yesterday, the only thing I drank was fruit juice at your house. Qing Lin, tell me, who could want to hurt me? If you don't stand up for me, I will go to Grandma..." Lin Banxia instantly felt extremely aggrieved.

"Banxia, listen to me. I promise to investigate this matter on your behalf. Don't go to my grandma; her health isn't very good, and you shouldn't upset her." Huo Qinglin panicked.

Lin Banxia sneered internally, suspecting that he only wanted to cover for his sister.

"I feel really awful and furious. If no one stands up for me, maybe I'd be better off dead. Qing Lin, I must ask Grandma to seek justice for me!" Lin Banxia hung up the phone immediately after finishing.

She had to go to Mrs. Huo — this was Huo Yanting's idea.

Presumably, he wanted to use her to tarnish the reputation of Huo Qinglin and his sister.

Hmph, that cunning and ruthless man; after exploiting her like this, he still wanted her to trade her dignity.

Was this fair to her?

Discussing fairness with a man as cold and calculating as Huo Yanting? She truly didn't have the nerve for that.

Lin Banxia obtained the test report from Gu Qianxi and immediately headed to Mrs. Huo's main residence.

Early in the morning, Mrs. Huo was energetic and exercising on the fitness equipment at the entrance.

Lin Banxia asked a servant to help notify her.

As soon as Mrs. Huo heard it was Lin Banxia coming, her face grew stern. Last time, the hot water bottle fiasco was still buzzing in elite social circles, ruining her granddaughter's reputation. This woman—was she stupid or doing it deliberately?

Although Mrs. Huo didn't like Lin Banxia much anymore, she was still officially her younger grandson's girlfriend.

Moreover, the pear garden land deed in Lin Banxia's possession was indeed significant for the Huo Family.

Upon seeing Mrs. Huo, Lin Banxia immediately dissolved into tears.

"Grandma, you have to help me. I almost lost my life."

"What happened? Speak up. Stop crying," Mrs. Huo said sternly as she took the towel handed to her by the servant to wipe her sweat and hands.

Lin Banxia hurriedly explained the truth: "Last night, Miss Huo invited me to a party. Someone drugged my fruit juice with C drug. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I wouldn't have lived to see you today."

"Is this really true?" Mrs. Huo's expression changed as she furrowed her brows. "Do you know who drugged you?"

"I don't know, but... as long as Grandma agrees to call the police and investigate, I believe the truth will come out soon," Lin Banxia said tearfully with grievance.

"You say you almost died—how did that happen?"

"When I fled in panic last night, I happened to meet a man named Qi Han. He sent me directly to the hospital for treatment. This is the report from the doctor. Grandma, you must stand up for me." Lin Banxia pretended to cry while secretly observing Mrs. Huo's reaction.

"I will inquire about this with Anya. Don't be too anxious," Mrs. Huo said after reviewing the test report, her face growing darker. She then instructed the servant to call over Huo Anya.

Huo Anya had already heard from her brother that Lin Banxia had survived a close call and been sent to the hospital for treatment by Qi Han.

So, it was no surprise to see her safe and sound here.
