Ceo's Mysterious Fiancee by Piper Dunlap

Chapter 437 Thank Them in Person

But...

The next second...

Paige's hand stopped in midair.

Danica sensed that something went wrong. She couldn't help but ask, "Paige, what's wrong?"

"There is a problem with the water."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned. Was there a problem with the water? What was

the problem?

"It's poisoned."

Paige's words shocked everyone. Even Elena had a look of disbelief on her face.

This is the private hospital of the Lusk family!

All the medical personnel on this floor only serve the Lusk family!

In this case, strangers couldn't come in! Why was it poisoned?

Paige also realized this fact. She asked Danica, "Has anyone else come recently?"

"No, only us, doctors, nurses, and two caretakers..."

Elena and Jason were in the same ward, so the two caretakers took care of them. There were no other outsiders.

Paige's eyes fell on everyone present. Patricia noticed her eyes and suddenly felt a little nervous.

Would Paige take this opportunity to slander Patricia?

Why was Paige looking at Patricia?

But the next second, Paige looked away and stared at the others.

Patricia was relieved. Fortunately, Paige did not make a fuss.

"Ms. Paige, I just changed the water this morning. There can't be a problem..." The one who spoke was Lydia. She

had been taking good care of Elena for several months and had already regarded Elena as her family.

"What time did you change?" Paige's voice was gentle. It seemed that she did not intend to include Lydia as a

suspect.

"At eight o'clock. After the doctor checked the room, I went to change the water. Until you came, no one else

came."

"Is the water for everyone in the ward?"

"No, I only changed the water for Mrs. Lusk. Matilda Bradshaw and I went out to fetch water. Mr. Lusk's water was

changed by Matilda."

Paige opened Jason's kettle again. There was no poison in it. Could it be that the person who poisoned the water

targeted Elena alone?

"Besides the two of you, who knew that Grandpa and Grandma would separate the kettle?" Paige asked again.

"The doctors and nurses did not notice this. Other than us and Ms. Paige's family, there should be no one else who

knows about this."

At this time, Matilda's expression was already somewhat unnatural. She knew that Paige knew medicine, but she did

not expect that Paige could see that there was something wrong with the water at a glance.

Now, Paige also noticed Matilda. Matilda sat beside Jason and lowered her head, trying to keep a low profile as

much as possible. However, Paige could capture a trace of panic from Matilda's expression.

"So, is it poisoned by Matilda?"

Matilda was so shocked by Paige's words that she immediately stood up. "Ms. Paige, you don't have evidence. Don't

talk nonsense!"

Seeing that Paige suspected her colleague, Lydia also stepped forward to explain, "It should not be Matilda. Usually,

it is she who is doing her best to take care of Mr. Lusk..."

"This kind of drug will produce poison when it goes into the water. The poisoned person will be sleepy all day and

have no appetite. He will be weak and afraid of the cold. In less than a week, he will die of exhaustion."

Paige's eyes settled on Matilda. "Being a caretaker means that you have mastered a certain amount of

pharmacology knowledge. Do you know why I suspect you? Because the drug I gave grandfather contains poison. It

can be easily purified. You are very smart. You did not go outside to buy it. Instead, you chose to make use of what

you have."

"I don't know what you are talking about!" Matilda's expression became even more uneasy.

"Lydia is loyal to Grandma, so I don't suspect her. As for you, what is your motive?"

"Matilda, is it really you?" Danica asked in disbelief, "Why did you do this?"

"Paige is not wrong. I believe in her. As for you, my mother doesn't give you any trouble. Why do you want to harm

her?" Donald was also very angry.

"It wasn't me..." Matilda's face became more and more uneasy, and her eyes began to dodge.

"No? Do you know what the consequences of murdering the Lusk family are? Why don't you tell me the truth?”

Patricia scolded angrily.

Elena, who was sitting on the bed, saw that Matilda's face was uneasy and realized something.

It was just that Elena was confused. "I have no animosity against you. Why did you do this?"

As expected of a strong woman who had been all-powerful for decades, Elena could still be so calm in the face of

the person who harmed her.

Paige suddenly showed respect for her grandmother.

"As long as I call, I have many ways to make you tell the truth." Danica believed it was Matilda and said angrily, "Are

you going to confess here, or do you want to go to the police station?"

"Mrs. Lusk..."

Hearing this, Matilda could no longer hold it in and finally chose to tell the truth.

In the past few months, she had developed deep feelings for Jason when she took care of him. She wanted to stay

with Jason.

But when she saw Elena come around, she began to panic. She was afraid that she would never have a chance

again, so she wanted to kill Elena.

She thought that if Elena died, Jason would choose her.

With her knowledge of pharmacology, she thought that she could do it flawlessly.

But she did not expect that she would be discovered by Paige before Elena could take a sip.

Who was this girl?

Why did she have such deep knowledge of medicine?

"You, you are really..." Danica didn't know what to say after hearing this excuse. It turned out that this caretaker

wanted to kill Elena and replace her.

Didn't Matilda know who she was?

Danica was so angry that she called the people in the hospital and asked them to send Matilda to the police station

immediately.

Elena's eyes fell on Paige. Just now, Paige appeared to be decisive, calm, and wise when she analyzed the situation.

It was quite impressive.

"Paige, how did you find that there was a problem with the water?" Elena asked lovingly.

"When this kind of drug goes into the water, under the light, the water will be a little muddy. There is a little bit of

powdery substance at the bottom of the glass. This kind of drifter is very tiny, so it is not easy to detect."

If someone drank the water in one go, they would not notice whether the water was cloudy or not. Even if there

was a little bit of drifter, it was almost invisible. No one would be suspicious.

"You know a lot," Elena was a little surprised and praised Paige.

"Mom, Paige is very knowledgeable," Donald spoke highly of Paige. *She's quite extraordinary..."

"Fortunately, you are here this time." Elena patted the back of Paige's hand again and then looked at Danica. "Oh,

right, I can come round this time because of those doctors. Let them come here, and I want to thank them in

person."
