Chapter 1693 Not Decided Yet

Byron did not continue after saying something weird like that. He diverted the topic and asked about her condition instead.

“How do you feel? Are you feeling well?”

He soon realized he had forgotten to call the doctor and looked at Mary. “Please help me get a doctor.”

Mary nodded and took Chloe with her when she left.

Rosalie’s vision was blocked by Byron’s body. Moreover, Chloe had been standing in Rosalie’s blind spot, afraid her presence might agitate Rosalie.

That was why Rosalie did not notice the fourth person in the ward.

Only when Mary walked out with Chloe did she notice that lady.

“Who is that lady?” Rosalie looked at Byron in a puzzle.

She did not think much and thought that lady was Mary’s friend.

Byron remained silent for a few seconds before being frank. “She’s my friend.”

Rosalie was startled upon hearing that. “I’ve never met her before, have I?”

Whether it was six years ago or now, she only knew the Quirke family’s siblings as Byron’s only friends.

As for the lady, she had never seen or heard of her.

Byron explained, “She’s the daughter of the Lincoln family, and they’re the Lawrence family’s acquaintance. The Lincoln family has been developing their business abroad and hadn’t returned for years before you married me. We lost contact with them. They only got back two days ago.”

Rosalie nodded and asked with concern, “Is she here to meet you?”

Then, she glanced at the time on the clock hanging on the wall.

It was already 6 a.m.

No one would come to a hospital to meet an acquaintance at an hour like this.

Moreover, Chloe looked like she had been here for long.

Byron also hesitated when she mentioned the purpose of Chloe being here.

Knowing Byron well, Rosalie sensed his strange reaction and grabbed his sleeve as she asked, “What happened to me? I remember diagnosing myself and noticing that I was poisoned before I lost consciousness.”

She had no idea when she was poisoned.

Her words shocked Byron.

He knew that Rosalie’s medical skills were outstanding, yet he never expected them to be so good.

He had employed so many experts, but no one could cure her. However, she realized that she was poisoned just by taking her pulse.

It was just that…

“Since you noticed it, why didn’t you tell me?”

Rosalie felt guilty and drooped her eyelids. “I-I didn’t think it would be that serious. I didn’t want to worry you. I didn’t expect to make you worry because of this.”

Byron could not blame her, but he said seriously, “Let me know at once if you feel uncomfortable in the future.”

Rosalie nodded obediently and asked, “Have you found out the type of poison in me? You must have found it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have regained consciousness.’

If she knew what had poisoned her, she could estimate when she had gotten poisoned.

Byron nodded. “Xander poisoned you with the incense. As for the ingredient, we know nothing about it.”

“Xander?” Stunned, Rosalie asked, “Why did he do that?”

The Lancer family was famous for their medical skills. They would never let Xander poison someone using medicinal materials.

Moreover, Xander could not be that despicable and heartless, could he?

It made Rosalie ponder what he was after.
