Lucas stared at Timothy. His eyes were wide with confusion. "Why would you say that? I don't get it," he said. "It's heavy metal poisoning!" Timothy said.His jaw clenched the entire time. "Thank goodness Chels was too busy these days that she didn't drink the herbs that were brewed. The housekeeper drank some and she had to get a blood transfusion. You'd better explain yourself to Chels!"Timothy shoved Lucas with all his might, causing Lucas to stumble backward.Frowning, Lucas asked, "What happened? What does it have to do with poisoning?" "The herbs aren't poisonous," Timothy spat. "But they contained mercury! It's lethal!" Timothy didn't think that Lucas was the one behind this. Nevertheless, he still felt the urge to give Lucas a good beating. He wanted to know the reason behind Lucas' desire to give Chelsey the herbs in the first place. Lucas wasn't even aware that the herbs were being tampered with. Timothy thought Lucas was an idiot."I'll definitely look int

On the other hand, Chelsey could now face Lucas calmly. Although he lived opposite her, she treated him like a stranger. Chelsey remained smiling as she and Timothy walked into the elevator. "Lucas has some cheek to return," Timothy mumbled.Displeasure was evident in his tone. But Chelsey remained silent. She did not blame Lucas. Instead, she took it as a case of good intentions gone wrong. She just needed to be more careful in the future. Chelsey and Timothy walked out of the building together, strolling around the neighborhood.Timothy suddenly took out his phone to text Lucas. He typed, "You promised to explain to Chels. Where is it now?"Lucas sat on the couch while reading the message. He then poured himself a glass of red wine. After taking a sip, he realized the wine was unusually sour, making it hard to swallow. Unable to vent his frustrations, Lucas grabbed the wine bottle and angrily threw it on the floor. He leaned against the couch to compose himself

Chelsey was awakened by her phone ringing in the morning.She picked it up, and upon seeing the caller ID, she did not feel irritated that the call had woken her up.Instead, she smiled and called out, "Uncle Fred!"Chelsey happily answered the call. On the other end of the line, a relatively young voice came through, "Chels, I'm in Jenton City. I just got off the plane."Where are you now? I'd like to meet you."Chelsey answered, "I'll send you the location, Uncle Fred. Call me when you arrive. I'll meet you at the entrance of the residential area.""Okay."Chelsey hung up and sent the location. After looking at the time, she realized it was almost 10:00 am.She had slept soundly. Usually, she would be awake by 7:00 am.Chelsey could not believe she had slept for an additional three hours. After washing up and changing into a fresh set of clothes, she walked out of her bedroom only to see Timothy making coffee."Tim, Uncle Fred is in Jenton City. He just landed and wants

Lucas felt uncomfortable the moment Fred mentioned Chelsey's pregnancy. He remained silent. He picked up the wine decanter and kept filling his glass. They drank white wine that night. Lucas was somewhat tipsy after downing three full glasses. "Mr. Jenson, you can still introduce your niece to me, even though she's pregnant. Hahaha!"If I marry her, I'll get a kid, too. That's a good deal."Fred burst out laughing, thinking that Lucas was joking. He even chuckled until tears streamed. After that, Fred confessed, "I actually thought about it. But I'm afraid her boyfriend won't agree. "He's the future heir of the Somner family in Westine. They've known each other since they were kids. "Also, the Somners are quite conservative. My niece can't marry into the family unless she gives birth to a son."Lucas frowned, feeling even more uncomfortable upon hearing that. "Is that so?"He would risk his life to save Chelsey. Yet, in Timothy's eyes, she was merely a tool to give bi

Fred took a sip of the hangover remedy and noticed Lucas staring at the bowl in his hand.He was momentarily stunned. He extended his hand and said, "Have some, Mr. Yates. We drank a lot last night."Fred then passed the bowl over to Lucas while Lucas reached out to accept it. Suddenly, Fred thought of something and pulled back. Lucas shifted his gaze from the bowl to Fred's face, a hint of displeasure evident in his eyes. Fred chuckled awkwardly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Yates. I already drank from this bowl. If you don't mind, you can have some from the thermos flask."Under Lucas' intent gaze, Fred passed the thermos flask to him. Lucas immediately took it. He was afraid Fred might change his mind. While Fred slowly drank the hangover remedy, Lucas held the thermos flask and took a big gulp.Lucas exclaimed, "Chelsey's hangover remedy is really good!""Yes, it is," Fred agreed with a smile. He took another sip, and only then did he catch on. "Mr. Yates, I don't think I'v
