Chapter 95
Vera gasped and cried, “Ahh!” She felt like her schl had left her body,

She hurriedly crawled out from the other side of the bed and raced her mind to create a convincing explanation for Carlos. “Well. Mr. Munroe, I left something at the Monroe family villa, so I came back to pick if up and say goodbye to Mr. Monroe, I mean it”
When speaking, she suddenly realized that something was wrong with Carlos.
She thought, ‘I know Carlos pretty well. He should have bounced up and interrogated me. Besides, I stirred up troubles at Averie’s press conference today. He has no reason to let me off when he sees me before him. But why is Carlos still lying by the bed? Is there someone else under the bed? Come one. Don’t scare yourself, Vera. It’s in the middle of the night. Vera got scared by her thoughts and felt a chill to the bone.
Neil looked at his mommy, who just returned, and then looked at his daddy lying on the ground motionlessly. Neil hesitated for a few seconds and rushed toward Carlos.
“Ah! Ah!” Neil could not speak, so he screamed in panic.
Vera sensed that something was wrong. She quickly ran over and found Carlos lying on the ground with his eyes closed. He seemed to have lost consciousness and could not wake up no matter what Vera did.
Vera took out her phone. She planned to call Ramon and ask him to fetch her a first aid kit. Then, the bedroom door was pushed open.
A maid came into the room, holding a glass of milk for Carlos.
When the maid entered, she saw Vera, the unwelcome intruder, and Carlos lying on the ground. Thus, she screamed, “Help! Vivian has killed Mr. Monroe!” With that, she ran out.
However, Vera rushed over and hit the back of the maid’s neck, and the maid fell limply.
Unfortunately, the maid’s shout alarmed Ramon and Dayton, Dayton Simpson.
Dayton did not understand why Vera knocked the maid out, but he chose to defend Vera. He said to the bodyguards rushing up the first floor, “Everything’s fine. A majd had a nightmare on night duty and shouted.”
The bodyguards believed Dayton’s words and left.
“What’s going on?” Dayton asked Vera as he entered the door with Ramon.
Dayton was shocked when he saw Carlos lying on the ground. He asked, “What happened to Mr. Monroe? What did you do to him?”
Vera replied, “I didn’t do anything to him. He suddenly passed out.” Then, she told Dayton what had happened.

Dayton was still skeptical and sought confirmation from Neil. Neil typed on the tablet, detailing what had occurred. Whenever Neil encountered words he could not spell, he resorted to drawing to express himself.
Neil’s account matched Vera’s description – Carlos had suddenly fainted.
“How could this be? Mr. Monroe has always been in good health and has no invisible illness.” Dayton could not believe it. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Ramon checked Carlos’s pulse and observed the changes in his pupils. Then, Ramon concluded, “Carlos is poisoned. It must be something highly toxic.”
Vera hurriedly asked Dayton, “Did Mr. Monroe eat or use something different today?”
Vera thought, ‘Everyone else is safe and sound except for Carlos. That means he is the only one who touched the poisonous thing.
“That’s impossible. Mr. Monroe has the same schedule as usual.” Dayton looked very anxious. He stared at Ramon and asked, “Dr. Miracle, can you find out what poison Mr. Monroe was poisoned with?”
“Dayton, do you know how many types of poisons there are? I only know a general direction. I can’t determine which one it is unless I can test what poisoned Carlos.”
Ramon’s medical skills were far inferior to Vera’s. He dared not to speak nonsense since even Vera did not know what poison was.
Dayton was so eager to save Mr. Monroe that he shouted, “If there’s nothing you can do, hurry up and send Mr. Monroe to the hospital!”
“It’s too late.” Vera raised Carlos’s fingers and showed them to Dayton. “His nails‘ color has slightly changed. The poison has spread throughout his body.”
