Chapter 591: Just as she was about to disappear from sight, a voice rang out behind her, sharp with surprise. “Naomi!" Khloe paused, her brow furrowing.
That voice belonged to Sheri. So she had cto the gala as well.
A flicker of cold calculation lit Khloe's eyes. Pulling out her phone, she quickly searched for the event's organizer. Her lips curled into a sharp, knowing smile when the answer appeared on her screen.
The Dayton family.

By the tKhloe returned to her seat, the charity auction was already underway. The atmosphere was warm and cheerful, filled with laughter and excitement.
The charity gala was a picture of elegance and warmth until a sudden, panicked scream ripped through the air. The cheerful mood instantly dissolved, replaced by an oppressive tension as the horrifying words rang out. "Someone's dead!"

Khloe's eyes narrowed as she watched Sheri handle the body. Something about her actions triggered a memory of Sheri's behavior when Sheri treated Izabella.

Naomi's death was a carefully laid scheme, aimed squarely at Khloe. Earlier that day, after Khloe had left the Dayton family estate, Naomi had gone into a frenzy, confronting Sheri about why she hadn't intervened or protected her.
Naomi's accusations had made the rest of the Dayton family wary of Sheri, forcing them to question her intentions.

The added pressure from Khloe's words and painting made it clear to Sheri: Khloe had to be eliminated.
Sheri had been planning for this moment ever since she learned m about the Dayton family's charity gala.
She arrived early, ensuring everything was in place. When Naomi died, Sheri would quickly manipulate the scene, blaming Khloe for the murder. In front of all the guests, Khloe would be cast as the killer, unable to escape the public's wrath-even Henrik would be powerless to silence them.
As Sheri moved with calm precision, she grabbed a medical kit from the charity's staff and began her examination of Naomi's body, each movement deliberate and exact.
