Chapter 57 Why Are You Still Alive
After leaving the manor, Eleanor quickly contacted Sienna, asking her to come to pick her up. She told the latter to prepare everything she needed. April and her children would accompany Arielle to the Administration of Marriage for a divorce today, but Eleanor hadn't received any news from them yet. she wondered what their situation was.
She went to the Phoenix Studio. After changing her outfit and putting on makeup, she went to the café as fast as she could. And Christian was already waiting for her in the café.
Eleanor walked over with a smile and Christian fixed his gaze on her. She was in an elegant black dress and looked mature and reliable.
He hurriedly stood up and walked toward Eleanor.
Eleanor also looked at Christian who was in a white shirt and a pair of casual straight-leg pants. His outfit was simple, but it stood out his nobility and elegance.
This man could attract a lot of girls if he was not gay.
Christian would be very shocked if he knew what Eleanor was thinking.
"Ms. Scott, we have to bother you again." Christian said in a gentle voice that was very pleasant to the ear.
Eleanor replied with a smile, "It doesn't matter. I happen to have time. Let's go."
Christian glanced around the café. But when thinking about the seriousness of the matter, he dropped the idea of having a cup of coffee.
After getting into the car with Eleanor, Christian sent Sebastian a message.
...
In the Sannot Courtyard...
The father and the son didn't eat the food prepared by the servants.
Sebastian had deployed his men.
Several minutes later...
Gianna, who felt joyful when seeing the dishes being brought to the dining hall and prepared to leave, was suddenly stopped by two bodyguards.
Gianna was taken aback. Looking at the bodyguards, she asked, "What's wrong?"
A bodyguard replied, "Gianna, Mr. Moore asked you to go back because. He wanted to ask you something."
Gianna took a glance at him, feeling inexplicably restless.
She asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"
"You'll know after going back with us. We don't know why Mr. Moore summoned you either."
Gianna nervously followed them into the house.
As soon as she entered, she saw Sebastian and Waylon sitting there quietly and he became more uneasy.
"Mr. Moore, Little Young Master," Gianna greeted, trying her best to calm down.
Sebastian and Waylon were still silent.
The atmosphere immediately became oppressive.
Outside the window was a beautiful scene of blooming flowers.
But inside the house, the dining hall was enveloped by a horrifying atmosphere of death.
Gianna's forehead had been covered with sweat. Although she didn't know anything, she almost fainted from the oppressive atmosphere.
In the past decades of her life, she'd never felt as tormented as she felt at this moment.
Time trickled by and ten minutes passed. However, no one in the dining hall broke the silence. Only Gianna's heavy breaths and the sound of the wind outside could be heard.
The father and the son were all good at keeping their composure.
Suddenly, some footsteps came from the living room.
Sebastian took a glance at Vincent who walked into the house with a package in his hand.
"Mr. Moore, we found that." Vincent glanced at Gianna coldly.
The person who walked in with him was Kingston, also Sebastian's bodyguard.
Sebastian slightly nodded his head and then glanced at Gianan gloomily, his gaze carrying tremendous murderous intent.
"Gianan, why did you drug my son, causing him to go blind and nearly die?"
His cold voice suddenly resounded in the dining hall, startling Gianna.
Gianna exclaimed in shock and shook her head, saying, "Mr. Moore, I didn't. I didn't!"
"Humph! We found this package of medicine in your room. Stop denying it!" Vincent put the package of medicine in front of Gianna.
Gianan's pupils contracted. She fixed her murky eyes on the package of medicine in Vincent's hands.
No wonder Sebastian let her wait here for so long. It turned out his men had gone to search her place.
"Impossible!" Gianna shook her head in horror.
She didn't hide the medicine in her room. A murderer would be sent to jail. Although she was not illegible, she knew this law.
she'd hide the medicine in the other place, but how did Vincent find it?
Could it be that they'd suspected her long ago?"
"Mr. Moore, I didn't do it. really." Gianna thought about a lot of possibilities but still felt something wrong with this matter.
But she was not doomed. She could tell them that the person behind her was Hailey. In that way, none of them would be able to escape.
Sebastian didn't say anything, and Waylon also sat there quietly.
Gianna was frightened by their calmness.
She'd been working in the manor for several years, and she knew that when Sebastian remained silent, it meant everything was under his control.
She racked her mind, wanting to find a way to save herself.
Would they let her go if she told them she was birded by Hailey? But that woman was rich and powerful...
And the result might be that she would have to take the blame alone.
When Gianna was lost in her thoughts, some footsteps came from behind.
Gianna turned around to see a very beautiful walk into the dining hall with Christian.
She was such a stunning beauty. Wearing a black dress that draped perfectly, she walked over elegantly.
Christian walked over shoulder-and-shoulder with her, feeling so proud of Dr. Scott when basked in the admiring glances of everyone present. A gentle smile appeared on his lips.
Seeing this scene, Sebastian thought of the words "perfect match". A handsome man and a beautiful woman... That was really a perfect match. He felt a bit uncomfortable. It was such a weird feeling.
Waylon, however, gazed at Christian with an imperceptible frown.
"Ms. Scott, thank you for coming here," Sebastian said slowly in a bland voice, sounding very indifferent and calm.
Eleanor didn't think much about it. She walked over and slightly waved the medical powder in her hand into the air when she walked past Gianna.
Gianna felt a bit cheered up when she breathed in the faint fragrance.
She thought it was from Gianna's body. Since the fragrance disappeared in an instant, she didn't take it to her heart. She wanted to find its trace, but there was none anymore. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Sebastian gazed at Eleanor and asked, "Is there any poison in this dish?"
Eleanor nodded slightly. She took out a silver needle and slowly stirred it in the dish. Then she put it aside.
She then took out three more silver needles to test other dishes.
She found out two kinds of poison three minutes later. It was very subtle and almost undetectable.
However, the braised pork rib that Waylon liked contained a strong toxin. It seemed like Gianna had really poisoned him.
But who was the person behind her?
Eleanor said slowly in a husky voice, "There are two kinds of poisons in the dishes, and both are the poisons in your bodies. One of them has a weaker toxin, so eating it every day will not cause much harm. However, it can prevent your legs from recovering."
"And the poison in the braised pork ribs... It was the one that caused Waylon to go blind."
Sebastian grabbed the cutleries on the table and threw them at Gianna with great force before Eleanor finished the words.
"Ah..." Gianan screamed holding her head and trembling violently.
"B*tch. He's only a kid. How could you poison him?" Sebastian roared, his voice terrifying.
But Waylon didn't have any feelings about this. He glanced over Eleanor's arm.
A faint glow became more visible under the light. It was from the faint, small circle that he drew on Eleanor's arm hours ago. It was invisible in sunlight, but the room's lighting could reflect it.
Eleanor was Melody Scott, which meant Melody was his mother.
"Haha... Son of b*tch, why are you still alive? You should have died long ago. You're getting on my path to wealth, so you deserve death." Gianna yelled with a maniac expression and rushed toward Waylon.
