You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 190

Irene already had doubts about Margaret's sudden kindness, and now the suspicion in her heart was growing bigger and bigger. Was Margaret deliberately trying to confuse her so that she would be less on her guard and then she would find a chance to harm her? Although the idea was a little unbelievable, she did not dare to risk her baby's life. She smiled faintly and said, "Alright, I like to add some milk into the bird's nest. I'll go add some and then eat it."

As she spoke, she turned around and entered the room as Loraine followed behind her. After only just a few steps, Irene turned around and stopped her, "Oh, I've forgotten one thing. Last time, when Mrs. Myers brought Eden back, he was greatly frightened. He was always afraid to see you two. You'd better not go in and let him see you. Otherwise, he would cry.""

Loraine stopped walking and asked awkwardly, "He's even afraid of me?"

"Yes, ever since he came back from the hospital that day, he has been saying that the two women are so mean. If they dare to bully him again in the future, I'll have to call the police to come and arrest them."

Those words were partly true. Eden had just said that the police would have to arrest Margaret, but he did not mention Loraine. However, when Irene saw Loraine's embarrassed expression, she eased her hatred and just lied to her. Loraine felt even more embarrassed, "Alright, I'll wait for you here."

Irene smiled at her and turned around to walk into the house.

When she returned into the house, Thomas looked at the thermos in her hand and asked, "What is it? Who sent it?"

"Uncle, this is the bird's nest that Margaret asked Loraine to send me," Irene put the thermos on the tea table.

Thomas was shocked, "She really did send you the bird's nest? How could Lily have guessed so accurately? Could there really be something wrong with the bird's nest?"

Irene glanced at Eden, who was sitting on the ground and playing with the toy car. She motioned for Thomas to follow her into the kitchen and told him about Loraine's strange attitude earlier.

Thomas's face darkened, "If that's the case, then there must be something wrong with it. You'd better not eat it." "Don't worry, I won't," Irene said as she opened the lid of the thermos. She glanced inside and bore a strange expression on her face.

More than half of the thermos was filled with the bird's nest. The color of the soup was orange red, and there was a fragrance that was different from the ones she had eaten before.

"Weird, why is the bird's nest so red? It's impossible for it to be in this color!" After marrying Edric, Irene had eaten a lot of nutritious food in order to have children. Moreover, the Myers family was rich, so those premium foods were like daily meals. Although the bird's nest was precious, Irene had eaten it many times, and she knew that something was wrong with it at first glance.

Thomas leaned forward to take a look. Then, he picked up the thermos and sniffed it. His expression changed drastically, "There's a smell of saffron in this bird's nest."

"What?! Saffron?!"

"That's right," Thomas took a fork and stirred the contents. He picked up a thin, orange object and said solemnly, "Look, this must be the saffron. The person who cooked the bird's nest was not careful enough, and she did not pick out all the saffron and left one behind." Irene took a deep breath. She knew that Thomas often read medical books for Eden's illness. These days especially, he even studied Chinese herbal medicine every day. It was not surprising that he knew about saffron. She had suspected that Margaret would do something to the bird's nest, but she did not expect that she would put saffron in it. It was known that saffron would cause miscarriage. If Margaret had done so, wouldn't it be harmful to the child in her stomach?
