Meanwhile, Belle had set up a meeting with Robert at the same location where they had previously met.As she left her home, she hastily arranged to meet with Robert. She needed those herbs urgently. Grayson's condition was deteriorating rapidly, and she couldn't afford to wait any longer. She needed to swiftly replace the poison in the scented sachet with the herbs!They met half an hour later.Robert was wearing a high-necked sweater layered with a mid-length overcoat. He looked handsome and charming. As soon as they met, he took out some herbs and said to Belle, "Take a look and see if these are the right ones. I'll go back and buy the correct ones if they aren't.'"Belle quickly opened the bag and checked. "They are correct. I didn't expect you would be able to find these. I was still thinking about what could be a good substitute if you couldn't find them."Robert glanced at the herbs and said, "Scott bought them.""Scott?""Yes. The person I ordered to buy didn't manage
Belle went silent upon hearing that. She didn't dare to say that Grayson was the one who had insomnia. After all, this was Grayson's private affairs. It was inappropriate for her to talk about it behind his back.Thus, she replied, "It's for someone else. Not me."Robert knew that Belle was knowledgeable in medicine. Thus, he didn't think much or ask about it.He replied, "Feel free to seek me out if you come across any difficulties in the future."Belle was very grateful. "Okay. I'll definitely help you if you need something from me. Right. How's your younger brother?""He's quite calm. It's just that he refuses to talk."Belle furrowed her brow and replied, "If there are no other symptoms, it's very likely a psychological issue. He might have been severely traumatized and can't overcome his fear. "Spend more time with him, provide encouragement, and give him some time. Of course, let me meet with him if there's a chance. "I can examine him to see if there are any underlyi
The overbearing smell of medicine caused Belle to furrow her eyebrows. She felt even more anxious seeing Grayson in bed. She quickly rushed inside the bedroom.Meredith was also shocked. Meredith was choked by the smell when she followed Belle inside and coughed.Belle stopped her in time, "Don't come inside. Wait outside for now."After shooing Meredith away, Belle even closed the door.She detected the scent of poison in the air and was determined to prevent it from affecting Meredith.Belle hurried over to the bed, where Grayson lay facing upwards with a pale complexion. Belle's immediate response was to extend her hand and assess Grayson's breathing. But abruptly, he seized her wrist! He awoke suddenly and cast a menacing glare in her direction.Belle was taken aback, gazing at him with bated breath, afraid to make a single move. Her initial thought was that Grayson had miraculously returned from the brink of death!Grayson spoke. "What are you doing?"Belle breathed a si
Belle immediately asked, "The diffuser was sent together with the sachet? Why didn't I see you using it before?""There wasn't a need to before.""There's a need now, though?""Yes.""Why?"Grayson didn't answer her. Instead, he placed the reed diffuser back onto the bedside table.Looking at the clock on the wall, Grayson furrowed his eyebrows. "It's already 6:00 pm?"Belle nodded. "What do you think? Meredith said you've been sleeping for the entire day and that she couldn't even wake you up. What kind of sedative is this? It wouldn't happen to be poison, would it?"Grayson glared at her and sat up. He wanted to go to the bathroom but could barely stand on his two feet. His heart was palpitating, and he felt dizzy. Belle quickly held him up when she saw that. "I think you're sick. You should call the miracle doctor and ask. There's no way a healthy person would wake up in this state," she said.Belle was well aware of his current condition. She just wanted to urge Grayson
Soon, Simon drove over. When he saw Belle, he quickly asked, "Are you okay, Ms. Walters? What happened?"Belle replied, "I'm fine. Nothing happened to me. It's Grayson.""Grayson? What happened to him?"Belle replied, "He got poisoned."Simon widened his eyes. "Poisoned? Is it serious?"Belle answered, "It's serious. However, it's not fatal."Simon's brows were knitted tightly. "Who poisoned him? Besides, he's such a careful person. Why would he get poisoned?"Belle said, "The scented sachet he uses contains deadly poison."Simon's eyes widened. "What did you say?"Belle didn't answer him.She didn't hide it from Simon. He was there when she saved Patrick. Simon already knew about her skills.Furthermore, Simon was compassionate. He regarded Grayson as his brother. He would keep this issue entirely confidential, sharing it with no one.Simon remained in a state of disbelief. "How is this possible? Grandma had examined the scented sachet previously. She would have unquesti
In the master bedroom on the second floor, Grayson was still lying in bed. When he saw Belle leading Simon inside, he was quite surprised. "Why did he come here?"Belle replied, "I asked him to come. I'm scared you'll die. You're so sick."Grayson pursed his lips. "You'll be happy if I die!"Belle replied, "What for? How am I going to get a divorce if you die? Even if you die, you can't die now."Pursing his lips, Grayson glared at her. "I'm fine," he told Simon.Simon looked serious. "Let me examine you.."Approximately ten minutes later, Simon followed Belle's instructions and remarked, "It doesn't seem to be a severe issue, but you should still consider taking some medication."Grayson shook his head. "No need. Dr. Cahill said that there's no need to take any medication."Belle rolled her eyes. She had a hunch that he might have been infatuated with the doctor, likely charmed by her beauty.Belle shot Simon a glance. Simon then began, "I'll give you some health supplements.
"M-Ms. Walters, what are you doing?" Simon asked with his eyes widened.However, Belle did not respond. She picked up Grayson's phone, grabbed his hand, and then used his fingerprint to unlock it.After that, she scrolled through his contacts. Belle soon found a contact saved as "Dr. Cahill"."The doctor who treated Grayson. It's Dr. Cahill, right?" she asked Simon.He nodded. "Yes, her last name is Cahill."Belle went through Grayson's contact list once more. There was only one "Dr. Cahill". Hence, it had to be her."Video call her," she instructed Simon."What?""Tell her Grayson had fainted suddenly. Then ask her what should you do," Belle continued. But Simon hesitated, "She doesn't know me, and I don't know her. This … " "You don't know her, but I'm sure she knows you."Since Lena had planned meticulously for so long, she must have looked into everyone around Grayson. Notably, Simon, as he was the person who would most likely discover her schemes. That was because h
Soon, Lena's voice came through the phone. "What's the matter?"Simon dared not tell her that Belle had knocked Grayson unconscious. So, he lied, "I don't know what happened, too. When Meredith called me over, he had passed out."She said he had been resting at home for the whole day. The entire house smells like herbs."Lena asked, "Have you examined him?""Yes, but I can't seem to find any issues. I know he has been using the scented sachets you gave to treat his insomnia," answered Simon. He continued, "He also mentioned that you changed to a new prescription. That's why I'm checking with you first. Then I'll take him to the hospital.""There's no need to take him to the hospital. It's a normal reaction," Lena replied. "The new medication is strong. He couldn't adapt to it right away. Besides, he's been ill for quite some time. "There are a lot of toxins in his body. His body will get used to it after he faints a few more times. After that, he'll be fine."Simon asked in
