Chapter 483 Poison Aunt Isabella?

"Not picking up, huh?" Kelvin sighed. "Guess you're more of a chicken than I thought. Where's that gentleman act now?"

That got Sam riled up.

"What task? I'll do it!" Sam puffed out his chest. "There's nothing I can't handle! Dealing with a nasty woman? Bring it on!"

He waved his hands around, looking kinda goofy.

Kelvin pulled out a packet of powder and dropped it in Sam's hand.

"What's this?" Sam asked.

"Poison," Kelvin said.

Sam's hand shook, almost dropping it.

"Hold it steady," Kelvin said. "Or are you chickening out now?"

Sam gripped it tight. "Hah! I'm not scared, and I won't back down!"

"Good," Kelvin said.

Sam, being pretty sharp, already figured out Kelvin's plan. "You want me to poison Aunt Isabella?"

"Yep," Kelvin said. "This stuff works slow. She needs to take it for a while before it kicks in."

"Will it kill her?" Sam asked.

"Nope," Kelvin said.

Sam blinked. "Then why use it?"

"Even though it won't kill her, it'll be worse than death," Kelvin said slowly. "When it

kicks in, she'll itch all over, feel like her bones are breaking, break out in cold sweats, and it'll happen every day."

Sam's face twisted up as he listened.

"What?" Kelvin asked. "Scared?"

"Not scared," Sam said.
