Meanwhile, Joshua had his team help the cops, and they discovered a servant at the Fisher family's old estate had seen Lillian slip something into Ben's health drink. The servant, preferring to avoid , had kept quiet until now.
With everything out in the open and Lillian having cut ties with the Fisher family long ago, she cclean when the police questioned her. When Grandma Emily heard the news, she was so furious she nearly had a fit. "What a disgrace! I thought she was just confused and being manipulated!

Back when Lillian was bad-mouthing Allison to Grandma Emily, Rose had warned her about Lillian's sketchy behavior, but Grandma Emily wouldn't hear it.
Truth be told, Grandma Emily never really liked Rose as her daughter-in-law. The classic mother-in-law/daughter- in-law tension is as old as time, and the rich aren't immune to it.
Years ago, when Ben cheated, the old lady hated the mistress but still blamed Rose. To her, Nancy was immoral for going after a married man, but Rose was also at fault for not keeping her husband in check.
After Ben's affair cto light, Grandma Emily blamed Rose more than Ben. In her mind, "boys will be boys," and Ben had just made a common mistake.
When Nancy, pregnant, demanded acceptance into the family, Rose reacted tically, even threatening to jump. Grandma Emily thought Rose lacked composure and had no strategy, just despair.
She didn't think much of Rose or Nancy. Rose had long sensed her mother-in-law's disdain. Over the years, she and Grandma Emily kept up appearances.
With the old lady now hospitalized from a heart attack brought on by fury, Rose visited regularly, playing the part but not really caring about the ol@lady's fate. If Grandma Emily were to pass, Rose could finally live a peaceful life. It wasn't heartlessness, just humán nature.
So it was Rose who broke the news to Grandma Emily about Lillian poisoning Ben. After Grandma Emily vented, she turned the blback on Rose.

"Look at the daughter you raised!" Grandma Emily snapped, bitterness snapped, 9 etched på herface. “What have you turned her into?"
Rose chuckled dryly. "You're good at shifting blame, aren't you? Wasn't Lillian with you most of the time? Wash With Wasn't she your precious granddaughter?" Rose, tired of pretending, faced her head-on.
"Are you saying I raised her this way?" the old lady fumed.
"Oh, you're such a pro at raising kids,' Rose replied sarcastically. First Ben, now Lillian. What a stellar job you've done." ||
