Chatper 385
Chapter 385 She was completely finished!
Audrey slightly furrowed her eyebrows.
The faint scent was different from what she was familiar with.
It seemed like a knockoff version imitating her fragrance.
Audrey was lost in thought while Briana had already introduced Audrey to Mrs. Gao.
Knowing that Audrey was the girl who saved Briana, Mrs. Gao carefully observed her.
He immediately changed his expression.
A few days ago, her lifesaver Kelsey was in a bad mood. After she asked, Kelsey told her some things.
And she showed her the photo of the girl who used to bully her, constantly opposing her and mistreating her. It was the girl in front of me.
“Sister, some people may appear innocent on the surface, but you must keep your eyes open.” said Mrs. Gao with a strange tone.
Briana was dissatisfied with Mrs. Gao’s tone. “If it weren’t for this girl, | would have died on the plane long ago. What's the point of polishing your eyes?”
Audrey didn’t want the two sisters to argue because of her. She looked at Grandma Gao with a sweet smile and asked, “Grandma Gao, did someone say something bad about me in your ear?”
Mrs. Gao said, “Listen, it's obvious that you have done a lot of guilty things in the past, otherwise why would you be so sensitive?”
Briana didn’t understand why Mrs. Gao had such a strong opinion of Audrey. She frowned unhappily and said. “I have a good eye for people, and Audrey’s character is not as bad as you think! It’s actually your maid that seems a bit untrustworthy to me!”
Mrs. Gao stood up from her chair with a slightly excited mood. “Kelsey, that girl, saved me. | know very well what kind of person she is. You have been having trouble sleeping lately, and | was going to get some incense for you, but it seems you don’t need it anymore!”
Today is Briana’s birthday banquet. Mrs. Gao didn’t want to argue with her endlessly, so she frowned and prepared to leave the reception
room. But just now. being too emotional. | fell to the ground after taking a few steps.
Several old ladies were quite frightened.
Audrey was the first to react. she took Mrs. Gao’s pulse and her eyebrows couldn’t help but jump.
“Briana, do you still have the herbal pills | gave you last time?”
“Yes. | went to get it immediately.”
Briana brought the herbal pill over and Audrey fed it to Grandma Gao, helping her to lie down on the sofa.
Mrs. Gao dropped a small medicine box from her arms.
Audrey opened the medicine box, inside of which were incense tablets. Audrey took one out and sniffed it at the tip of her nose. His face changed dramatically
“Who made Grandma Gao use this kind of incense?”
Just as she had guessed before, it was indeed a counterfeit version. Two ingredients were not added into it. If used for a long time. Grandma Gao’s entire lung would have been necrotic!
Briana realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly had the butler call Colton in.
As Colton entered. he saw Grandma Gao lying on the sofa with a pale face. He nervously asked. “What happened to my grandmother?”
Now the Gao family is under the control of Mrs. Gao, but she has not yet made a will. If something unfortunate were to happen, Colton would likely not be able to inherit the position of heir.
“Mr. Larson, who gave you these incense sticks for your grandmother?”
Colton turned around and saw Audrey, furrowing his brows slightly. “Is it you? What right do you have to my grandmother's affairs?”
Briana glared at Colton with a stern look and said. “If it weren’t for her, your grandmother wouldn’t even know if she was alive or not by now.”
Audrey pursed her lips slightly and said softly. “These incense tablets, when used in the short term, may improve sleep and such, but over time, especially when feeling emotionally overwhelmed, one may feel dizzy, nauseous, and even want to vomit!”
“Subsequently, it altered the structure of the lungs, causing irreversible damage to them!” “Don’t underestimate this incense. If the ingredients are improper, it
can cost lives!” Audrey handed the box to Colton. “If you don’t believe me, you can go to the hospital and verify the dangerous components!”
Colton was skeptical.
But after seeing the expression on Madam Gao’s face and her physical condition, it was necessary to pay attention. Colton had someone send Mrs. Gao back home, and then he went to the hospital again.
| found an acquaintance and quickly tested the ingredients of the
incense.
As he received the report, he saw, just as Audrey had said, his face instantly darkened.
Briana’s birthday banquet was still ongoing, and Kelsey didn’t know what had happened to Colton as he didn’t tell her when he left.
After Colton left, several young gentlemen came over to approach Kelsey. Kelsey was feeling proud and confident when suddenly the doors of the banquet hall were pushed open by someone. Colton stormed in with a few bodyguards.
Kelsey saw Colton and said to the gentleman who was trying to approach her. “Sorry, | can’t give you my contact information, otherwise my boyfriend would get jealous.”
Kelsey smiled and ran towards Colton, who had returned to the banquet hall, catching a glimpse of him from the corner of her eye.
“Mr. Larson...”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
The words were not finished when suddenly a slap was fiercely landed on the face.
With a loud cra ck, Kelsey was stunned.
The ears buzzed, and the slender body fell to the ground.
Today, Kelsey was wearing a light pink chiffon dress. In the moment of falling. her two fair legs were exposed.
The people around her pointed and whispered.
Kelsey immediately closed her legs and tried to stand up, but when she fell, she sprained her foot and couldn't stand up at all.
She looked at Colton with tears blurring her vision, not understanding why he had suddenly hit her when everything seemed fine.
“Mr. Larson, what happened to you?”
Colton glared at Kelsey with a cold expression, raising his hand and instructing the bodyguard behind him. “Take her to the police station!”
Upon hearing Colton’s words, Kelsey's heart tightened.
The whole person felt as if falling into an icehouse.
“Mr. Larson, what did | do wrong?”
Kelsey had been lifted up by the bodyguard, with a look of fear in her eyes and tears welling up. “What kind of incense did you give my grandmother to use? Don’t you have any sense of propriety?” Kelsey’s pupils suddenly dilated.
| wanted to say something, but the bodyguard had already escorted her

out
Elise, who was chatting with a few women in the corner, heard Kelsey’s sobbing and quickly walked over. “Mr. Larson, where did you have someone take Kelsey?”
Elise grabbed Colton’s arm, but the next second, she was coldly pushed away by Colton.
Colton glared at Elise in anger and said. “Once | deal with your daughter, | will come after the Watson family and settle the score!”
Elise swayed unsteadily.
Isaac hurriedly walked over and looked at Elise, whose face was as red as a beet. He frowned and asked, “What did Kelsey do to upset the Gao. family again?”
Elise shook her head nervously.
An hour ago. Mrs. Gao and Colton were doting on Kelsey, but how did they seem like completely different people an hour later?
Elise had a faint sense of unease in her heart.
She chased after him.
Once again, | grabbed Colton’s arm and said, “Mr. Larson, what exactly happened? Even if you want to put us in danger, you should at least give us an explanation!”
Colton coldly looked at Elise and said, “Your daughter almost took my grandmother’s life. Is this reason enough?”
Elise’s face turned pale in an instant, and she felt as if she had fallen into an abyss.
