Chapter 561 âPoisoned? How could this happen?â Robertâs tone was grave, Rayne frowned, gripping her phone tightly.âI donât know either. He mostly eats at home. Mom and I are fine with the food. Only Royce got poisoned I suspect it might be related to Nikolas. Lauryn used to work for him, and now Royceâs poisoned Lauryn is the prime suspectâ
On the other end, Robert was silent for a moment.
After a while, Robert spoke.
âCall the police, his voice oozing authority.
âOkay,â Rayne replied.
Robert then said firmly, Iâll apply to come back to New York. I want to meet Nikolas and Lauryn in person.â
Bella, who was standing next to Rayne, heard Laurynâs name as the prime suspect. Instantly, she was displeased.
After Rayne hung up, Bella glared at her, her tone laced with anger.âDonât talk nonsense! Lauryn was just misled by Nikolas.
Sheâs not a bad person. She couldnât have poisoned Royce. Heâs her father. How could she do such a thing?
Rayne was silent for a moment, then said impatiently, âMom, youâre way too indulgent with Lauryn. Even when sheâs involved in criminal acts, you still defend her. Sheâs already been murders and coverâups. Whatâs stopping her from poisoning a nonâbloodâ
related foster father?â
âNo! Impossible!â Bella shook her head vehemently. âLauryn wouldnât poison Royce. She wouldnât!â
Bella had some doubts, but she just couldnât accept it.
part of She kept shaking her head, muttering to herself, not sure if she was trying to convince Rayne or herself.
How could she accept that the granddaughter sheâd raised had poisoned her son?
Rayne shook her head helplessly, gave Bella a cold look, and left without another word.
Rayne called the prison and arranged a visit.
If her suspicion was right, Lauryn would face another charge, intentional homicide.
She had to confront this ungrateful adopted daughter.
After a long wait, the emergency room door finally opened.
Lennon, Bryce, and Deandre all spoke up at once.
Lennon asked, âDoctor, howâs Marie?â
Bryce asked, âDoctor, whatâs her condition?â
Chapter s Deandre said, âDoctor, howâs my daughter?â
ÐонÑа Everyone else looked anxious, holding their breath. Their hearts were pounding, hoping for good news but dreading the bad.
The lead surgeon took off his mask, a tired smile on his face.âThe patientâs out of danger. Sheâs been transferred to the ICU and can be visited in three days.â
