Chapter 1632: She Worries About Him

"What is this?" Jennifer asked, puzzled.

"It's a handkerchief stained with coffee, milk, and juice residue. The paper contains food particles," Ivan explained as a flash of the moment they sent the plant to Rowan's palace crossed his mind. He and Claire had intentionally kept some samples for him to bring back to Arkpool City.

He said, "This is the king's breakfast, sampled from the kitchen. Can you detect any poison in it?"

Jennifer met his gaze, her chest tightening as she listened. "Are you investigating alone?"

Before Ivan could answer, she worriedly reproached him, "Do you know how dangerous this is? If they dare to poison the king, they are nothing short of desperados. They might come after you too! It's not your territory!"

She could feel her nervousness and fear.

Ivan reached out and grasped her shoulder, his tone gentle and apologetic, "I'm not alone; I have Claire, Rowan, and our construction team. Isn't that enough?"

Jennifer didn't think about anything else; she was just terribly worried about him. "You're going there again, aren't you?"

"Of course," he replied to her, "Rowan is my friend, and we must find the killer for him."

But the dangers involved were easy to imagine.

"My dear, I know you're very worried about me, and you're equally concerned about Rowan, so we need your help now," he said.

Jennifer wasn't the kind of woman who feared death. Her gaze fell on the box on the coffee table. "Let's go to his laboratory and see if these foods are poisoned."

"Okay."

So Ivan released her shoulder and took the box, standing up.

Jennifer put on her shoes too. "You act too quickly; you haven't figured out the situation in the royal palace yet."
