Chapter 1189 Antidote in the Cup of Tea

If she hadn't been in a normal state, today's matter would never have passed.

On the other side, Veronica and Matthew sat in the car that drove down the mountain.

She handed a wet cloth to Matthew. "Matt, please find a way to test the composition of the water on this cloth."

"What's wrong?" Matthew's face turned slightly cold as if he realized something.

Veronica leaned against the passenger seat with her eyes closed. Even so, she still felt a lingering fear. "Both Liam and I were set up. There's something wrong with that alcohol."

Screech!

Just as she finished speaking, Matthew slammed on the brakes to a stop.

"You were also affected?"

The man's face turned cold as a chill surged to his eyebrows.

"Liam drank four-fifths of that bottle of wine, and the drug was too strong, which is why he lost control. I didn't drink much, so it didn't affect me much. I felt very uncomfortable, hot, and thirsty in the palace room. At that time, a servant brought me a cup of tea. I was parched, so I drank it and felt much better afterward. Not long after, the effects of the drug completely wore off."

Veronica told Matthew everything that happened in the palace. The information revealed in her words made Matthew keenly capture something.

He lowered his gaze and pondered momentarily before asking, "Are you suspecting that there was an antidote in that cup of tea?"

















"The bonfire banquet was set up by Liam, and the location was chosen near the palace. Once anything happens, the palace cannot shirk its responsibility. This was probably not Liam's doing, nor was it done by anyone from the palace. The only suspect is... her."

"You mean Tiffany?"

"Yes."

"If it was her, then today's events are even more perplexing." Matthew tightened his grip on Veronica's hand, his thumb stroking the back of her hand as he looked ahead. "After being taken into the palace, everyone was locked in their rooms. Tiffany wouldn't have had time to give you the antidote. So, the only people who could have provided you with the antidote were the Ledger siblings. Excluding the injured Liam, only Dominik and Eleanor could have gotten their hands on the antidote."

Although Eleanor was with him during that time, she had touched her phone, and there was no guarantee that she wouldn't use it to communicate with others and give instructions.

"The problem lies here."

Veronica's face grew cold. "They gave me the antidote, which shows that they have already figured out the problem. In that case, why did they still lie to everyone and conceal the truth for Tiffany?"
