She Became Rich After Divorce by Georgina Lane

Chapter 293: Malaya Got Frightened

To be honest, George was also taken aback as he looked at the snake inside the glass box, coughing dryly twice. “Ahem… Master Davon, this is really too realistic. This snake is a toy snake, right? Young people can be quite humorous.”

A toy snake? Cheyenne’s cool voice chimed in at the right moment. “It’s a Lycodon rufozonatus, highly venomous. If you doubt it, you can stick your hand through that small hole and try.”

Highly venomous! Malaya suddenly felt relieved that she had moved away quickly earlier; otherwise, she might have ended up in the hospital if she had been bitten. George was just trying to find a way out for his wife, and he never expected Cheyenne to rebuke him so shamelessly.

“This snake is worth a fortune, and it was specially brought from the tropical rainforests and air-freighted here. I’ve heard that snake venom has therapeutic properties, so I procured it as a medicinal ingredient for my elder brother.”

So, it was meant for Iker’s treatment rather than a gift for Cheyenne. Malaya felt embarrassed for losing face, but, having lived to fifty years and experienced countless grand occasions, she had developed quite a thick skin. However, an average person would undoubtedly be mortified.

Bringing up Iker, Adrian naturally steered the conversation to the purpose of their visit today. “Grandniece, where is your grandfather? We want to inquire about the condition of Master Iker.”

It had been almost a month of treatment, but Iker still appeared the same. Adrian was confident that Layne couldn’t cure this disease. However, Davon had insisted on this visit, hoping for peace of mind. Hearing Cheyenne being addressed this way, George and his family were shocked. They initially thought this unassuming elderly man was Master Davon’s driver or something, but they didn’t expect him to be Cheyenne’s granduncle. That practically made him their relative!

Malaya remembered the old man’s warning from earlier, and it still sent shivers down her spine. Now, recalling the incident, she still felt a lingering sense of dread.
