Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406: Chapter 406

Rosemary’s statement sent a wave of shock across the faces of everyone present. Even Cornelia was visibly taken aback.

This was the Collins family’s private hospital! Every single healthcare worker on this floor catered solely to the needs of the Collins family! Under such circumstances, outsiders couldn’t possibly gain entry!

So, when could someone have possibly poisoned the water?

Rosemary, clearly aware of this dilemma, asked Louisa, "Has anyone else been here recently?"

"No one, just us, the doctors and nurses, and two nursing workers."

Since Rosemary’s grandparents were in the same room, they were looked after by two nursing workers separately. Apart from them, no outsiders had been present.

Rosemary’s gaze swept over everyone present. Serena noticed her scrutiny and immediately felt a bit uneasy.

Was Rosemary going to use this opportunity to slander her? Out of the blue, why was Rosemary looking at her?

However, the next moment, Rosemary’s gaze shifted away from her and onto others.

Serena heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Rosemary didn’t seize the opportunity to create a scene.

"Ms. Rose, I had just replaced this water in the morning—it can’t possibly be poisoned," Julie said. She had been diligently caring for the old lady for months now and had come to regard her as family.

"What time did you replace it?" Rosemary’s tone was gentle. She seemingly wasn’t considering Julie a suspect.

"Around eight. After the doctor’s morning rounds, I went to replace the water. No one else had been here until you all arrived."

"So, you replaced the water for everyone in the room?"

"No, the water I replaced was solely for the old lady. Helen and I both fetch water from outside. The old man’s water was replaced by Helen."

Rosemary then opened her grandfather’s water bottle. It wasn’t poisoned. Could it be that the person who poisoned the water was targeting her grandmother alone?

"Besides you two, who else knew that my grandparents use separate water bottles?" Rosemary inquired again.

"The doctors and nurses probably didn’t pay attention to these details. Apart from us and the family, no one else should know."

By this time, Helen’s face had turned somewhat unnatural. She knew Rosemary was knowledgeable in medical matters, but she hadn’t expected her to instantly spot what was wrong with the water.

Now, Rosemary turned her attention toward Helen. She was sitting beside her grandfather, her head bowed, trying to keep a low profile. However, Rosemary could make out a hint of panic in her demeanor.

"So, Helen is the one who poisoned the water."

Rosemary’s words startled Helen, making her jump to her feet. "Ms. Rose, you can’t speak recklessly!"

Julie, standing by, jumped to her colleague’s defense. "It couldn’t have been Helen. She’s always been devotedly taking care of the old man."

"This potion, when mixed with water, becomes toxic. It will lead to a person feeling drowsy all day, losing their appetite, feeling weak, and becoming sensitive to the cold. In less than a week, the person would waste away."
