55: Chapter 55 Poisoning Incident 55: Chapter 55 Poisoning Incident Emily Parker took Mrs.
Carter to the hospital’s small garden to breathe fresh air, which slightly improved Mrs.
Carter’s complexion, but her expression was still full of worry.
Mrs.
Carter held Emily’s hand,
“Emily, I need to ask you a favor.
Please keep today’s dical report a secret for now.”
Emily was briefly stunned, but quickly understood Mrs.
Carter’s intentions.
The Carter Clan is one of the top conglorates in the country.
If news of Mrs.
Carter, the president, being poisoned got out, it could negatively impact the Carter Clan’s stock prices.
Emily sighed,
“Mom, I can promise not to tell anyone else, but Carlos is your son, I have to tell him.
Otherwise, he’ll bla later.”
Emily was about to inquire about Mrs.
Carter’s daily diet to find out why she was poisoned when she heard hurried footsteps.
It was Evan Palr accompanied by several bodyguards, with Doctor Bennet following them.
Needless to say, it must have been Doctor Bennet who inford Evan.
Evan’s face was still unpleasant when he saw Emily.
He quickly moved to Mrs.
Carter’s side, pushing Emily aside, with an expression of profound grief,
“Caroline, I’ve heard about the dical report.
Rest assured, I will find out who poisoned you.
The priority is to find a way to treat you without further delay.”
Doctor Bennet also stood by, looking guilty,
“Mrs.
Carter, I notified Mr.
Palr.
Indeed, it was negligence on our hospital’s part.
Although our People’s Hospital has advanced testing equipnt, the test you did was for radioactive toxins, which our lab is not equipped to detect.
However, my teacher has contacts with an overseas lab, and he will surely find a way to treat you very soon.”
“Yes, I’ve already notified Doctor Reed to co to the villa imdiately.
Don’t worry; whatever happens, I will be by your side.”
Evan grasped Mrs.
Carter’s hand tightly.
Seeing Evan’s deeply affectionate deanor, Mrs.
Carter was moved, her eyes slightly teary, and she nodded.
Emily thought to herself that the poison in Mrs.
Carter wasn’t caused overnight but had accumulated over ti.
The people around her were the most suspicious.
Emily’s first suspicion fell on Evan.
But she had no solid evidence to speak out just yet.
Emily decided not to voice her suspicions for the ti being.
“Emily, you can go back now.”
Evan glanced at Emily next to him, his tone unfriendly.
Mrs.
Carter also nodded, signaling Emily to go back to work.
Doctor Bennet watched Emily leave, his eyes filled with a sinister look,
“No wonder Emily is so arrogant and bossy.
She’s an unmarried pregnant gold-digger who pressured Young Master Carter into marrying her.
But according to President Palr, he doesn’t like Emily.
Pregnancy takes many months, and pregnant won are fragile.
One careless move could be fatal for both mother and child.”
Emily returned to the pharmacy, pondered for a mont, and was about to call Carlos when she realized she didn’t have his number and could only contact Oliver Ross.
Carlos imdiately dropped what he was doing and rushed back to Cloud Lake Villa.
On the way back to the villa, Carlos felt agitated and sent a ssage to “Grandpa.”
After finishing her tasks, Emily heard the WeChat notification sound.
It was a ssage from “Old Master.”
Ti: There’s sothing I don’t know if I should tell you.
Blue Sky: Just say it, we’re like family.
Ti: A friend of mine has fallen seriously ill.
Blue Sky: There’s a cure for everything with today’s dical advancents, don’t worry too much.
Ti: But this illness isn’t simple.
I’ve asked around, and no one in the dostic dical field can treat it; the only person who could have treated it reportedly died many years ago.
Blue Sky: That’s problematic.
Do you know the Ghost Doctor?
Ti: You know about the Ghost Doctor too?
Blue Sky: I’ve just heard of him.
If you face any difficult issues, you might as well seek out the Ghost Doctor.
Besides, when soone is sick, they need more companionship.
If possible, spend more ti with them.
Ti: I will, and you too must take care of your health.
Carlos put down his phone, thinking that Grandpa didn’t know about his mother’s incident yet, and he didn’t plan to tell him to avoid worrying him.
But to his surprise, even Grandpa had heard of the Ghost Doctor.
He couldn’t help but think of that woman’s incredible bone-setting skills he witnessed one night; perhaps she really could help him.
Inside Cloud Lake Villa, Evan, in front of Mrs.
Carter, ordered a thorough investigation of all the food in Cloud Lake Villa and also inspected Mrs.
Carter’s daily necessities; no radioactive toxins were found.”
When Carlos arrived back, he overheard Evan and his friend, Doctor Reed, discussing the next treatnt plan with Mrs.
Carter.
Mrs.
Carter was sitting on the sofa, still looking sowhat pale.
Evan, she had never doubted him; after more than twenty years of marriage, she trusted his character.
Doctor Reed suggested that Mrs.
Carter should move to his hospital for treatnt.
Carlos quickly walked in.
