They could leave the past in the past.
Madam Shaw was very likely weak after being drugged and Susan thought that, as a daughter-in-law, she should take good care of her. In fact, it was meaningless now to bring up the past since it had already happened.
Susan looked very positive, so Madam Shaw gently patted her hand in relief.
Involuntarily, Willa said with a chuckle, "You two have a very good relationship, don't you?"
However, she sighed silently, as no one knew how long this 'good relationship' would last.
Madam Shaw and Susan smiled after gazing at each other, seeming quite harmonious.
A sweaty person was standing outside the door while Susan was feeding Madam Shaw porridge. "Chairman Shaw."
"What are you standing here? Come in. Tell me, what’s the progress of the arsenic incident I got you to investigate?” Julian asked right away.
"I’ve got some news, but..." The man looked reluctant.
"You got the result? What is it?" Julian asked with a heavy tone.
The man scratched his ears and jaw for a while before he continued. "Shall we talk somewhere else, Chairman Shaw? I think Madam Shaw needs a quiet place to rest."
"Just talk here! I'm curious to know who can't wait to take my life!" Madam Shaw said coldly before Julian managed to answer.
“I can't, Chairman Shaw..." The man hesitated.
"Why not?" Madam Shaw was agitated and struggled t o get up from the bed. "Do I have no right to know the truth as a victim? Just say it here. I can take it."
"Calm down, mom." Susan quickly supported Madam Shaw and said, "Just say it. Mom has the right to know.”
Cautiously, the man asked as he took a look at Susan," Are you sure, Mrs. Shaw?"
What did he mean? Susan glimpsed at the man cluelessly.
"Go ahead." Susan agreed, as she was clueless about this.
The man's eyes were filled with uncertainty. However, he took out the item he had prepared since everyone had insisted.
"I found this after searching the entire villa, Chairman Shaw." The man took out a small bag.
"What's that?" Julian asked with a frown.
"It's a bag of sugar, but it was mixed with a very small portion of white arsenic." The man quickly added," There is only half a portion left in the small bag.
Hence, I believe that the other half was added to the soup."
Julian squinted as coldness filled his eyes. "Where did you find this?"
The man said after hesitating, "It... It was in the little lady's room."
Little lady?
Chesney?
Julian had speculated and come up with numerous reasons except this one. He was literally stunned.
Swiftly, he stood up angrily. "The culprit didn't only intend to kill my mom but also kept an eye on Chessie!?"
Chessie was at an age when little girls loved candy, so it was very likely that she would have eaten it if she had seen the bag of sugar!
Should he be grateful that Chessie had not seen the bag of sugar because she was still at kindergarten?
