Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102

Danielle turned around and met the man’s gaze. The cold expression on her face was replaced by an innocent and pure smile, and the ruthlessness from before disappeared without a trace.

David took Danielle’s hands and wiped the blood from her hand with a wet wipe, slowly wiping her flawless and tender hands as if he were handling a rare treasure.

"Are you tired?" he asked, then held Danielle in his arms.

’Come on, Danielle thought, shaking her head. ’How is this even considered tiring?’ She then said, "I’m not tired."

Looking at Danielle sitting obediently in David’s arms, the group of hitmen were completely dumbfounded. ’Is she still the cruel demon from just a moment ago?’ they thought. Meanwhile, in Aleria, members of major families like the Johnson family, the West family, the Graham family, the Barnes family, and the Darling family seemed to be experiencing something unusual in their bodies.

They were fatigued, and their heads felt as if they were about to split open. The pain was unbearable, as if countless needles were constantly pricking them.

Not only that, but they would also faint from time to time and lose consciousness. Every time they woke up from fainting, the pain in their bodies got even more unbearable, as if all their bones had been broken.

Each family had hired renowned doctors in private, but it seemed that no problem could be found. The results showed that their bodies were in perfect health.

This made them terrified. At the moment, they did not know what was wrong, but the symptoms of their bodies seemed to be getting worse with each passing day, as if they would die suddenly in the next moment.

Among them, the Darling family was the worst hit. Five out of the six sons of the Darling family had developed problems.

"What exactly is wrong with their bodies?" Howard and Vivian said, looking at their sons worriedly.

The doctors wiped the beads of sweat off their foreheads, exchanging nervous glances as they looked at Austin.

"We really didn’t find anything wrong," they said. "The examination reports show that their bodies are in perfect health."

As a doctor, Austin’s face was extremely grim. His conclusion was the same as these doctors’, and it was very likely that...

"Please leave for now," he said.

"Alright, call us if you need anything." A group of doctors walked out of the ward.

Everyone then looked at Austin, knowing that he might have something to say.

"Austin, do you have anything to say?" Joseph asked calmly. "Did you discover something?"

The people in the ward looked at Austin.

"I suspect that we’ve been poisoned," Austin said. "The poison is likely very well hidden, and modern medical equipment can’t detect it."

Xavier jumped up in a flash, cursing, "What? I’m poisoned? Which bastard poisoned me?"

"Can you be quiet?" Howard said with a frown and swatted Xavier’s head.

Xavier looked at Howard with a face full of resentment and said, "Dad, I’ve been poisoned and about to die. Why are you still hitting me on the head? No wonder I’m not bright. It’s all because of you hitting me!"

Xavier’s loud behavior left everyone in the ward speechless. "Just let the poison take you then," Matthew said, shooting a glare at the not-so-bright Xavier.

"Matthew, you really don’t love me at all," Xavier said. "I’m a forgotten soul that no one loves. My life is tough. But I still have tens of millions of fans who love me. Hmph."

"Did this silly boy really come from me?" Vivian said, sighing deeply and looking up with a look of disbelief.

"Xavier, quiet down," Elliot said.

With a serious expression, he continued. "Austin, are you sure we’re poisoned?"

He and his siblings had been poisoned without anyone knowing, so he figured it was highly likely that someone close to them did it. He also reckoned that it was very likely done by someone they trusted as that person managed to poison them and still went unnoticed.
