The poison appeared to be identical to the original bellflower tablets, and each one contained over ten grams of lethal poison.
Aunt Esther carefully cooked the soup and then turned off the heat.
The soup’s fresh fragrance scattered in the air.
When Madam Enya, who had just arrived at the dining table, smelled the scent of the soup, she turned around and asked Esther curiously, "Hmm? Did you make chicken soup? Didn't I say the other day that I didn't want to eat greasy food?"
"I used a lot of Bellflower in this chicken soup, Madam.Didn't you get a headache a few days ago? This soup is beneficial to your health.It can help you regain your strength and relax your mind.Also, you'll be able to sleep well after eating it!"
"Is that so? Then just leave it here."
"Alright, Esther said as she carefully placed the soup on the dining table and set several bowls for Master Langston, Madam Enya, and Oscar.”
"Let's eat! But it seems like our father is busy.Am I right, Master Langston?"
Madam Enya glared at Master Langston angrily.
When he heard Madam Enya’s voice, Master Langston dropped the work he was doing and laughed, "Great.I'm not going to look any longer.I want to pay attention to my wife! It doesn't matter what she says!"
The couple had been together for over two decades, but their relationship had always been impressive.
Oscar, who had been eating a mouthful of food, rolled his eyes as if he was used to his parent's behavior.
Then the family happily ate together.
In school, Olivia directly slipped away when she was studying by herself last night.
She hadn't returned home for several days, and for some reason, she felt a little uneasy in her heart, especially in the afternoon.
Her right heart had been beating non-stop as if something terrible was going to happen.
The uneasiness came without warning, but she had no choice but to be alert.
After Olivia left the classroom, she didn't go to the school gate.
Instead, she headed to go to the basketball court to climb over the fence.
She wanted to check if her assumptions were correct.
However, Maggie followed behind her.
"Sister, where are you going? I didn't see you when the teacher came over.Quick! Go to the office to explain yourself, or else you will get suspended."
Hearing this made Olivia roll her eyes.
She had sneaked out more than once during her self-study, but she had never seen Maggie following her before.
There must be something unusual that was going to happen.
Olivia turned around and stared at Maggie.
She reasoned out, "It's stuffy inside.I'm coming out to get some air"
After she spoke, Olivia gave her a blank expression which made Maggie choke.
But realizing that Olivia was heading to the court instead of the school gate, Maggie heaved a sigh of relief before returning to the classroom.
However, what Maggie didn't know was that just as she turned around, Olivia and the others on the other side turned around and quickly climbed out of the school wall.
On the way, Olivia called home.
Her family was about to eat their chicken soup when the phone suddenly rang.
It was Olivia who was calling, so they temporarily set aside the bowl with a smile on their face.
"Olivia, my daughter, did you eat well at school? Has there been a lot of pressure on your studies recently?" Madam Enya asked.
Oscar rolled his eyes again.
Ever since he was young, he knew that he was definitely different from his sister.
That was because his father and mother's attitudes toward him and his elder sister were completely opposite.
Hearing her mother's voice on the phone, Olivia heaved a sigh of relief, but she was still worried about them.
"Dad, Mom, I'm on my way back home.So don't eat anything, and don't go anywhere during this time’
"Why?"
Master Langston and Madam Enya were left confused.
Olivia, who was on the other end of the phone, gasped for breath.
"Little Olivia, is something wrong with you? Do you want Dad to pick you up?"
Master Langston asked, but she refused.
"No, Dad.I'll be right there.’ After that, Olivia hung up the phone.
She already ran into the bustling area from the remote path beside the school.
When a car stopped, she hurriedly entered and sat down whilst dialing Tristan’s number.
Tristan had recovered from his injuries and went to report to the company since Olivia rescued him from the mountain.
Given the fact that he was only a security guard, he was able to be civil and provide advice on company business matters.
That caused Nicholas to praise him several times in front of Olivia, saying that he was outstanding.
Nicholas wanted to promote him, but Tristan wasn't interested, He just wanted to be a security guard who didn't have a sense of existence.
Olivia was glad that Tristan answered the phone quickly.
So she didn't waste any minute and just said that, "Go take a look around my house.If you find anyone spilling gasoline, just kill him!"
The last four words were simple and crude, carrying a dense killing intent and ruthlessness.
The driver was so frightened that his hands trembled in fear.
Through the rearview mirror, the beautiful girl in the back seat smiled.
She looked at him innocently and harmless, "Don't worry.I'm just talking about our game”
"Oh, I see"
After arriving at the villa entrance, Olivia immediately got out of the car and gave the driver a ticket, "Keep the change."
Then she rushed in and saw that her parents and younger brother had really listened to her words.
She sat at the dining table and did not go anywhere.
Seeing her return, Master Langston heaved a sigh of relief.
"We were scared to death, my daughter.I thought you were fine in the middle of the night.What happened? Is there someone bullying you?"
Olivia's expression was a little unsightly because she smelled something unusual at the table.
Aside from teaching her how to appraise treasures and disguise her appearance, her master also taught her about the poison's scent.
Therefore, she was able to identify poisons and cure all types of toxins in the human body.
In the past, Olivia had always thought that her ability was basically useless because she would never take the initiative to poison others.
But she didn't expect that someone was poisoning her family.
Olivia had a strong suspicion why she was feeling uneasy that day when she walked out of school.
Then she recalled some related events, such as Master Langston's car crashing into the river.
However, he was rescued.
Her uneasiness might be caused by the fire in the villa, in which Madam Enya was buried in a sea of fire, and her younger brother Oscar was poisoned.
She initially assumed that these events would occur a few years later, but she didn't expect them to be brought forward quickly due to a sudden change in this life.
‘Those Peterson's deserved to die and not my family!’’
Seeing her bothered expression, Madam Enya walked forward to her and asked worriedly, "Daughter, what's wrong?"
Instead of answering her mother's question, Olivia suddenly asked, "Have you eaten this soup?"
They all shook their heads.
Olivia heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at the servant behind her.
"Who made this soup?" She asked.
Aunt Esther's heart skipped a beat.
She stood up nervously and answered, "Young miss, it was me who made that soup."
"And what did you put in it?"
"To mend Madam Enya’s pain, I also put some Bellflower tablets!"
"Is that so?"
Olivia walked forward to her with a calm face.
But without warning, she suddenly pressed Esther on the dining table and asked her once again, "Tell me, how much did the Peterson's give you?" This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"What!" Aunt Esther was frightened.
"Young miss, I've worked in the Clements Clan for so many years and have always done my duty properly.You can't just accuse me without evidence!"
