Whats that awful smell? A guest covered her nose and asked with a frown.
Everyones eyes fell on Kendra.
Some guests couldnt suppress their laughter.
Overwhelmed with humiliation, Kendra let out a hysterical scream, covered her face, and dashed towards a distant restroom.
Mom! Shelia called out, following her with concern.
Lindsey turned to Benny and said, You might want to check on her.
If anything happens in the restroom, I cant be held responsible.
Bennys forehead veins bulged in frustration. Such an embarrassing incident at his own birthday party was unthinkable!
He glared at Lindsey and snapped, What the hell is this mess? How could the waiter put the abortifacient in her water?! You better give me a clear explanation, or youre not leaving!
Lindsey calmly responded, Kendra organized this birthday party, and she arranged the waitstaff. I just came here as her guest. Why would I be involved in something like this? You might want to question your wife about her plan to terminate her pregnancy and blame me. If I hadnt spotted her scheme early and swapped the abortifacient with a laxative, you will never know if the baby shes carrying belongs to you. You might have even ended our relationship.
Bennys face suddenly turned gloomy and horrible.
Dad, youre wise. Think about it. Dont let Kendra fool you again.

Eventually, the police showed up. They gathered information from the attendees and quickly requested the two glasses of water for testing.
The result came out quickly, confirming Lindseys statement. However, the waiter who had served water to Lindsey had mysteriously disappeared.
The party, being on a beach without surveillance, left no avenues for further investigation.
In the end, the police had no choice but to leave the case unresolved.
Once the dramatic scene at the party concluded, Lindsey, having cleared her name, departed amidst the crowds admiration.
People couldnt help but marvel at how composed, intelligent, courageous, and impressive Lindsey was.
In contrast, Kendras image suffered greatly. Her plan had backfired spectacularly, leaving everyone wondering how she would handle the aftermath.
After leaving the party, Lindsey chose not to go home but instead strolled along the beach.
Bathed in moonlight, the beach was serene, with the waves softly caressing her ankles.
Lost in thought, Lindsey wandered aimlessly. Despite her victory today, she couldnt find any joy in it because she had suffered significant losses.
Her heart was left with scars that could not be easily healed.
