She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 632

Chapter 632: Devil's Tongue

The latter seemed to sense her gaze and lifted his head to look in her direction.

From a distance, their eyes met for a brief second, unnoticed by anyone.

Sophie lowered her head and gently adjusted Lewis's clothes, to prevent him from catching a cold.

Since the rules of the competition were to treat the opponent...

If treatment was needed, then illness had to precede it.

Therefore, Lucien proposed to poison each other first.

As he spoke, he took out a dark green medicine bottle from under his black robe and poured out a green, round pill.

He explained, "This medicine is called Devil's Tongue."

"As the name suggests, the person who ingests it will develop a rash all over their body within an hour. Their skin will turn blue and ultimately, deep green, before their blood vessels burst, leading to a violent death."

Poisoning?

Just as he made this proposal, the people around were shocked.

After all, this was just a medical competition. How did it escalate to the point of poisoning?

However, some people agreed to this proposal.

In previous medical competitions, it was merely about theoretical debate and on-site consultations, which was really boring.

So, when something like poisoning, only seen in novels, appeared in real life, it triggered the viewers' interests.

The judges were mostly discussing the safety of the competition process.

Bianca and Emily, after listening, brightened up and nodded in agreement with Lucien's words.

"Yes, now it's all about innovation. Monotonous competition rules are no fun."

"I support this kind of competition. After all, both of them are medical students. I believe Mr. Miller must be well-prepared with the antidote. It's foolproof."

Mr. Miller nodded solemnly.

"I do have the antidote."

"I had it prepared before coming to Jostrana. If Miss Lawrence is unable to cure the poison I administer, I will bring it out."

Underneath the stage, everyone noticed that Cheyenne didn't respond immediately.

Many people speculated that she might be scared.

Leah, in particular, publicly taunted her, "What? Cheyenne, are you afraid?"

At this, Yvonne turned back irritably, the first to show displeasure.

She increasingly felt that Leah was too annoying.

Eddie, on the other hand, considered that Cheyenne was pregnant now. How could she take poison?

Even if Lucien had the antidote, it was tailored for adults. What about its effectiveness on pregnant women?

Would there be side effects?

These were all unknowns.

More importantly, he didn't trust Lucien.

Lucien's eyes seemed deep and lifeless, yet exuded a dangerous aura, shrouded in mystery.

Just as everyone thought Cheyenne wouldn't agree to the competition, she spoke up, "I agree."
