q“Did you drink it?” Francesca was still eating.
Eva held the cup of fruit tea and gave Francesca a helpless look.
“You'll be fine, don't worry.” Francesca then took a sip of the tea.
“What?”
Eva was stunned. Didn't she say there's poison in the fruit tea? Why did she drink it?
While Eva was working out the logic in her mind, she started feeling dizzy. She cupped her head with her hands and panicked. “M-My head is spinning. Is it because of the poison?”
“Go on, and take a little nap. You'll be fine.” Francesca continued taking another sip of the fruit tea as if she was not bothered.
“Help-”
The color drained out of Eva's face. She wanted to run out to get help, but the moment she stood up, she instantly collapsed onto the couch.
“You poor thing. I must have frightened you.”
After taking a glance at Eva, Francesca turned around to check the surroundings. There was dead silence outside the room. It looks like someone had distracted the two female bodyguards.
She was determined to find out the culprit who tried to poison her.
Francesca clapped her hands and lolled on the couch. She then shut her eyes and pretended to fall asleep.
Seconds later, someone opened the door and entered the room.
“Quick.”
“All right.”
Someone walked up to Francesca.
Francesca could feel danger approaching. She opened her eyes and saw a woman standing in front of her.
The woman dressing as a maid was about to inject her with a syringe.
Upon noticing the hard glint in Francesca's eyes, the maid froze and did not know what to do.
She was surprised that Francesca was wide awake.
Another maid, who seemed to be more alert, immediately stepped up and pinned Francesca to the couch. She then turned to her partner and said, “Quick!”
The maid was ready to jab Francesca with the syringe.
Francesca immediately lifted her leg and kicked the maid. She then grabbed the other maid's shoulders and shoved her to the back, causing the maid to collapse onto the coffee table.
“You-”
