217 Chapter 217: Detoxification Using Blood
Even though everyone knew the truth, they all chose to remain silent, leaving Caleb Mamet to bear the disgrace of being an illegitimate son.
The Drew family should have saved Caleb from the fire, but they became the ones pushing him into it.
Sean Price sighed, “Madam, now the President no longer hopes to clear his name, he just wants to know who killed Miss Drew.”
To Caleb, both the Drew and Mamet families were the same; they would do whatever it takes for their
own interests.
Xaviera Evans sniffled, “I understand.”
In the bedroom.
Steve Price’s face was full of anxiety, “President, does your head still hurt?”
Caleb Mamet remained silent, eyebrows furrowed.
Xaviera cautiously entered and saw him tightly closing his eyes, looking very painful.
Steve Price whispered, “Madam, do you know everything now?”
Xaviera saw Caleb’s forehead seeping with delicate beads of sweat and his tightly clenched fist, and suddenly realized, “Is he having a toxin attack?”
Steve Price nodded, “Yeah, all he can do during a toxin attack is to endure. He’ll be fine once he gets through it, but we can only watch him suffer with no way to help.”
Xaviera bent down and gently stroked his cheek, feeling his pain and uneasiness.
“Was it Mrs. Mamet who poisoned him?”
“Only she would do such a cruel thing. When the President was young, he was always locked up in a small dark room by that poisonous woman, and she also poisoned him to make him die from the attack, so her own son could inherit the family business. Fortunately, the President clenched his teeth and got through it, or any other person would have…
Steve Price said through gritted teeth.
Xaviera’s heart trembled, feeling both angry and heartache.
Caleb was Winni Drew’s child, yet the Drew family did nothing to protect him from the abuses of a mistress?
Steve Price frowned, “Back then when Sir Drew was gravely ill, and the Drew family had no leader, no one stood up for the President. Later, the head of the Drew family became Miss Drew’s father, but he didn’t like his daughter, so of course he didn’t care about the President’s life.”
“The Drew family is even more complicated than we thought, and it’s possible they caused Miss Drew’s death as well!”
Xaviera’s pupils shrank suddenly.

Could the Drew family really be the masterminds behind all these tragedies?
If so, they were even more frightening than the Mamet family!
Xaviera sat quietly by the bed. After Steve Price left, she began flipping through her grandfather’s journal.
The journal was quite old but well preserved. Xaviera was always careful when reading it.
It mentioned that over forty years ago, Sir Drew had asked him to treat seven–year–old Winni Drew. Winni Drew’s condition was similar to Caleb’s. Her grandfather wrote in his journal, “It’s too late. Maybe a year earlier, there would have been hope, but now there’s no cure.”
Xaviera was taken aback.
She originally thought Winni Drew was poisoned after marrying into the Mamet family, but it turned out she was poisoned as a child, almost at the same time as Caleb.
Was there a special reason for the poisoning during their childhood?
Xaviera reached out to wipe the sweat off Caleb’s forehead and sighed softly.
If the poison in Caleb’s body really couldn’t be removed, she still had a last resort.
