A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 299 The Gentle Smile

"My Lady, there is something peculiar about the business card. Although it has already volatilized,

through further testing I still found some substance that could make the skin fester. Together with a kind

of chronic poison, this substance can penetrate into the skin and slowly through the body. The poison

will not show its effect within a short period of time. The latency of the attack can last for more than a

month. But when it takes effect, it may cause palpitations, vomiting, dizziness and so on."

"Sure enough, Sarah Shen is quite cunning. She had misled us by shifting our attention to the feast of

fish in the restaurant to hide her schemes."

Even if they were suspicious of her intentions, they only doubted the safety of the dishes served that

day.

In addition, the fish eggs had been deliberately put into the grouper of the last dish. This looked rather

suspicious.

How clever she was!

It seemed that Sarah Shen was not as naive as she had been before. Now, she had learned the art of

deception.

"So we have been exposed to the poison... Is it serious?"

Acute poisoning could easily be found out, and the poisoner would be held accountable immediately.

But for the chronic poisoning, it was another story. After penetrating into the body through the skin, the

chronic poison would not show its effect until a month later. By then, no one could accuse Sarah Shen

of poisoning. On a superficial level, she only invited Linda Xia and the others for lunch simply because

they had saved her life.

In this way, Sarah Shen could totally get away with it. It was no doubt an elaborate scheme.

Fortunately, Linda Xia suddenly thought of the business card. Otherwise, this could lead to a

catastrophe a month later.

"My Lady, we only gave you a routine examination several days ago. We found nothing wrong because

this poison can only be detected through specific blood tests. And thus, we didn't pay attention to it.

Luckily, you remembered this business card. Otherwise, we would have been tricked by Sarah Shen

due to our carelessness." This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Anna was relieved to have detected the poison in time. She prescribed some medications for Linda and

Nelson Li, so they could avoid the poisoning. If it had not been for their timely detection, they would

have suffered a lot. The acute palpitations could cause the sudden death of a person. By then,

medicines would be of no use.

"Linda, don't you think Sarah Shen is too reckless to do this? She dared poison you in public. She must

think nothing of you, even though you are the granddaughter of the Nalan clan." Lily Jiang said angrily.

She wondered if those rich ladies had nothing to do everyday. Because they didn't do anything but

think about how to victimize others instead of doing something worthwhile.

Linda Xia shook her head with a bitter smile, "It is impossible for Sarah Shen to work out this scheme.

She has no such courage nor insight. In fact, Sarah Shen is a naive person, who was always used by

Amy. Yet she is unaware of it and even considers Amy as her best friend."

It was a shame that Amy only intended to take advantage of her all the time.

After all, her intentions could be easily found through that event.

At that time, Sarah Shen wanted to help Amy vent her anger, so she arrested Bun. She even wanted to

do harm to her. Luckily, Lord Shen got there in time and prevented terrible things from happening.

If not, Charles Mu would have retaliated against the Shen clan.

In this case, things would get complicated. Not only would Sarah Shen lose her job as the Deputy

Director General of the Police Bureau, but the entire Shen Clan would also be destroyed.

Charles Mu was capable of doing so.

Amy didn't dare do harm to Linda, yet she made Sarah Shen do it for her. Sarah Shen considered it

very loyal of herself to have helped her best friend Amy. She never knew that Amy had betrayed her for

a long time.

Sarah Shen, who was totally deceived by Amy, had done a lot for her without getting anything in return!

"It is natural that Amy wants to take revenge on you. She is suffering a lot now. It will take at least six

months for her broken arms and legs to recover. In addition, she will get scars even after she fully

recovers. She also has to spend a long period of time doing therapy for her soft tissue injuries. The

most important thing is that she loves wearing high-heeled shoes, but she may never be able to wear

them anymore."

Anna said with a smile.

"It's all right. If she wants to get her revenge, then let her! After all, it is her who wanted to kill me in the

first place. But I was lucky enough to escape from her vile scheme."

Anna looked at Linda's smiling face.

Her smile seemed gentle and calm. But there were underlying meanings in it.

No one could tell the numerous injustices and hardships Linda had suffered from her smiling face.

Anna knew that Amy falling off the building was just the beginning. Soon enough, she would have to

bear endless retribution.

All the suffering that Linda had experienced would be paid back to Amy.

"Well, My Lady. Didn't you ask me to dispense a prescription for you? This medicine can make people

fart all the time. I have concocted it. It's a transparent fluid with no odor. Also, it will not be detected

through any test. After being taken in half an hour, the medicine will start to show its effect. I tried it

before, and then I kept farting."

"Uhmm... Nel, if you have the time, tell my grandfather that my birthday is coming soon."

"Okay, I will."

Nelson Li faithfully relayed Linda's words to Richard.

Lord Richard had always felt guilty about not taking Linda Xia back to their home. Therefore, he

immediately started to prepare for her birthday party once he found out that Linda's birthday was

coming soon.

This time, Linda Xia planned to hold her birthday party in the name of Lady Nalan. She also sent an

invitation card to Sarah Shen.

In the house of Qi clan.

"Amy, you need to be patient. You have not yet been able to walk comfortably. You will recover as long

as you recuperate for a while. Please listen to the doctor!" Sarah Shen stood nearby, watching Amy try

to walk with crutches. She panicked when she saw Amy walking sloppily and falling on the floor.

It was soon for Amy to do so. Her bone hadn't healed properly yet, which means she hadn't fully

recovered, but she was already tired of being in bed all day. She wanted to stand up.

This would not do!

If one's muscles are hurt, one needs a hundred days to recover, not to mention broken bones!

During this period, Amy lay on the bed at her house all the time. She did not exercise and was offered

good meals by the servants of the Qi clan. Meanwhile, Amanda Zhang worried about the recovery of

her daughter so that she let Amy take lots of tonics. Now Amy was getting fatter, with a rounder face

and bigger belly.

"No, I am going to see Charles a few days later. How can I show up like this?" Amy sat on the floor

feebly. Before a huge cheval mirror, she saw her haggard face and lusterless hair. Seeing how fat she

was, Amy was desperate.

"Haley should be blamed for this! It is all her fault."

"Still, you cannot be too hasty. If so, your condition will worsen."

"I am just so furious about this. It was Haley that caused my injuries. I had nothing against her, but she

dared do this to me. I shall let her die violently!" Under the dim light, Amy's eyes looked like that of a

poisonous snake's who was ready to attack. Sarah Shen felt her hair stood on end.
