The Runaway Groom

The remains of a broken test tube lay on the floor, and Isaac strode into the room, studying Irene from

head to toe.

“Are you alright?”

Irene shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Isaac frowned—her face was pale, and she appeared weak as she lay against a desk.

Still, he asked, “Did you find something?”

“Dennis was definitely poisoned,” she replied. “I found traces of hemlock in the sample Lulu gave me.”

“Hemlock?” Isaac asked. “What’s that?”

“It’s a poisonous plant,” Irene explained. “You can extract enough poison to kill two oxen with a single

shrub.”

However, she had no idea who would poison Dennis—he had been admired and loved during his time

at Hotmesh Research, and no one held enmity against him.

“Maybe he consumed it by mistake?”

“No,” Irene said confidently. “That can’t happen because hemlock doesn’t exist here—it’s indigenous to

another continent. Moreover, there should be initial symptoms such as exhaustion, accelerated heart

rate, cerebral hypoxia, and fainting. It would then be followed by myocardial ischemia, leading to death

—naturally, it would look as if the death was caused by a failed surgery. Either way, Dennis did not

consume it by accident. Someone trained in the medical field must have deliberately staged it to look

like that.”

Isaac narrowed his eyes. “So, someone wanted to frame you?”

It certainly was the case, given the current observation.

If there was no experienced forensic doctor who could tell that Dennis was poisoned, they would have

just considered it a typical death caused by blood loss.

In that case, people would believe that Irene’s artificial heart was useless, and everyone would turn

their crosshairs on her!

But she could not think of anyone who would do that…

“That’s enough. It’s late—let’s just head home for now,” Isaac said, putting an arm around her shoulder.

“Don’t dwell on it.”

Irene nodded, but she was terrified.

It felt like she was caught in a web of conspiracy, but she had no idea who was behind it!

Once they returned home, Isaac took a shower while Irene got a call from Lulu, asking if she had found

anything.

“It’s hemlock poisoning,” Irene told Lulu.

Lulu clearly knew as well. “Martin is suggesting that you pull footage of Dennis Turner before he

fainted. There should be cameras around, and it might offer you a clue. Just give me a shoulder if you

need more help—Martin and I will do our best.”

Irene had been standing out on the balcony, leaning against the wall as a soft breeze gusted.

It was a little chilly, but she felt a hint of warmth within herself.

“Okay,” she said.

As she hung up and returned inside, she saw Isaac in a bathrobe and holding a towel as he dried his

hair. “Your turn.”

Irene, however, lowered her phone and said, “I need to go to the hospital again, to look through the

footage before Dennis fainted…”

Isaac already thought about it, and told her, “I told James to save it already. You can check it anytime.”

“Can you give it to me now?” Irene asked.

Isaac heaved a long sigh—he knew she would not be sleeping if he refused. “I’ll send it to your phone.”

“I want to see it when I come out,” Irene said, undressing and heading into the bathroom.

Isaac headed downstairs and turned on his computer before uploading the footage they took from the

security team to Irene’s phone.

Irene checked it after taking a bath, and then sent it to Lulu.

Isaac asked, “Can you go to bed now?”

Irene put her phone away, but she still had trouble sleeping as she got into bed.

Her mind was a mess, and it was only after some time that she fell asleep from sheer drowsiness.

As morning arrived, she was woken up by her phone’s ringtone.
