Chapter 425 It''s Poison


    "We''re not sure yet." Susan could fully understand Julian''s anxiety and could not help but respond


    softly, "Mom drank her Chinese medicine just now, then suddenly vomited blood and fainted when


    she was just about to go take a nap."


    "Chinese medicine?" Julian said keenly. "Where''s the residue of the medicine that mom just took?"


    "I''ve gotten someone to send the residue here for examination," Susan replied immediately. "But


    mom has been drinking this medicine for many years, so there shouldn''t be a problem."


    "Other than this medicine, did mom eat anything else?” Julian asked.


    "No,” Susan answered. "The medicine was taken before the meal, so mom didn''t get the chance to


    eat anything else."


    Julian''s pupils constricted suddenly. "No matter what, we have to wait for the result of the


    examination first."


    Julian stared at the tightly-closed emergency room, and his body could not help but stiffen slightly.


    He thought about a lot of things at that moment.


    He remembered that when he was young, his father had passed away at a young age and his


    mother had worked so hard to retain thepany.

    He remembered that she had given up her pride and gone out begging for help from onepany


    to another.


    He remembered that she had worked so hard on her ns for many years, just to hand over


    Lanyard Construction to him as a whole.


    Madam Shaw might have done many unkind or nasty things, but as a mother, she had done her


    best for him.


    If Madam Shaw were to disappear from this worldpletely someday...


    Julian’s hands could not help but clench into fists.


    Susan gazed at Julian in distress, then quietly stretched her hand out and wrapped it around his


    fists.


    "Julian, mom will be fine." Susan consoled him gently.


    Julian responded softly, but his gaze never shifted away from the door of the emergency room.


    After some time, a nurse walked out of the room in a hurry.


    "How''s she?" Julian rushed over at once.


    The nurse said quickly, "The result is already out. It was poison. There are still some toxins in


    Madam Shaw’s stomach, so we are performing an urgent gastricvage. However, she was


    delivered here in time, so she is basically now out of danger." "Poison?" Sheer coldness beamed


    out of Julian’s eyes."


    Any idea on what the poison was?”


    "It was arsenic!" the nurse replied. "Arsenic is highly toxic, and it’s too dangerous to be consumed


    orally. Fortunately, the dose of the arsenic was notrge, and Madam Shaw was brought here in


    time. However, Madam Shaw is old, so she may not be able to fully recover after the detoxification.


    Thus, as family members, you must take good care of her."


    Arsenic!


    When the nurse went back into the emergency room, a ring cold ray shed in Julian''s eyes.


    Somebody had extended their ws into his family! His mother had juste over to Skyking City,


    so she had never had any feuds with anyone there. Why would she suddenly be a target?


    If she had been taken to the hospital a bitter, Julian could not imagine what the consequences


    would have been.


    "Arsenic? Why was there arsenic at home?" Susan frowned. She waspletely puzzled.


    Julian squinted, and his voice was cold. "Arsenic will naturally not appear by itself."


    If he found out who on earth was behind his mother’s incident... Julian''s eyes became gloomier.


    After a while, Wi came to the hospital with theb assistant.


    Wi said with a worried tone, "Mr. Shaw, Susie, how''s Madam Shaw? The test result just came out,


    and there were traces of arsenic in the Chinese medicine!


    Arsenic is very poisonous, and Madam Shaw is very old. I hope she’s fine."


    "Mom is no longer in danger, but her body must have been affected," Susan said faintly.


    "The poison was arsenic, so it''s already a blessing that Madam Shaw survived. As far as her health


    is concerned, she can only recuperate slowly over time," Wi responded with a light sigh.


    Julian''s expression was so cold that it was quite unweing. He then asserted emotionlessly,"


    Investigate! We must get to the bottom of this incident! Since the arsenic was in the medicine, start


    b y investigating the medicinal ingredients. If there''s nothing wrong with them, then inspect every


    single corner of the mansion for traces of arsenic. Check all the video surveince to see if there


    were any suspicious personnel movements at the time."


    There were dozens of cameras hidden everywhere in the Shaw Mansion, so he believed that


    nobody could escape surveince.


    Julian arranged and assigned all these responsibilities and then stayed in the hospital to wait


    silently.


    Susan knew that Julian was in a bad mood, so she only waited quietly next to him.


    An eerie glow glimmered in Wi''s eyes as she looked at them. However, nobody saw it, as it was


    just a sh.


    Another hour had passed by the time Madam Shaw was pushed out of the emergency room.


    She had already awakened, but her face was pale and she looked very fatigued.


    Julian and Susan rushed toward her immediately.


    "Mom, how are you feeling?" Julian took Madam Shaw''s hand nervously.


    Madam Shaw gave him a weak smile. "I''m fine, I''m not dead yet. I survived even after taking


    arsenic. My will t o live is strong!"


    At the mention of the arsenic, Julian’s expression dimmed. He then said coldly, "Mom, don''t you


    worry, I''ll find the person who harmed you.”


    "I''ve only been in Skyking City for a little over a month. I also wish to know who hates me so much


    that they wanted me dead," Madam Shaw said feebly.


    "Don''t worry, I won’t let this go without an answer," Julian promised.


    "Mom, let''s go back to your ward first," Susan said softly while she held Madam Shaw''s other hand.


    "Okay." Madam Shaw patted Susan’s hand with some relief.


    Everybody apanied Madam Shaw to the intensive care unit.


    The room was called a ward but was, in fact, as luxurious as a top presidential suite. Even the toilet


    was made of pure porcin.


    Madam Shaw was satisfied with the environment, but her vigor was not high so she leaned on the


    bed weakly.


    She had just undergone a gastricvage, and the doctor had said that she could only eat porridge.


    Susan took a bowl of porridge and carefully fed Madam Shaw.


    Madam Shaw ate the porridge one mouthful after another, a rare smile forcing itself onto her pallid


    face. "Susie, sorry to bother you."


    "It''s nothing," Susan replied gently.


    Maybe it was because when people were sick, they were always softer and gentler, but Madam


    Shaw''s heart slightly softened when she saw Susan’s attentive look.


    She said softly, “Susie, I''m sorry about what happened before this."


    Madam Shaw had actually apologized? 1


    Susan was shocked. She had thought that she would never get an apology in her life!


    Madam Shaw had almost killed her and Chessie, but what could she do? She was Julian''s mother


    after all. What Susan had wanted all this while was just an apology.


    Now, she had gotten it.


    The corners of Susan''s lips twitched and curved upward into a forgiving smile, "Never mind, it''s


    water under the bridge.”
