Chapter 216 He Doesn’t Have That Long
Nira’s POV:
A flash of surprise flickered across Mary’s eyes. It was gone almost instantly. She stared at Ivory by her feet and stubbornly repeated, “I already told you. I don’t know anything. Why are you accusing me? I’m, his mom. Why would I poison my own son!
Beside me, Zane’s wolf ears had already appeared. His face was tense with worry. “Luna.” His voice was serious. “Mr. Howell is fighting for his life in the hospital right now. He’s hanging by a thread. If you know anything, please tell us. We’re running out o
time.”
But Mary remained unmoved. Her chin lifted defiantly. She didn’t even bother looking at him.
I’d had enough. Without another word, I signaled Ivory to continue searching for aces of poison.
At the same time, I strode forward. Grabbing Mary’s arm, I flicked out a needle. The needle sank into an acupuncture point
“Ah!” A scream tore from her throat. The color drained from her face. Sweat instantly appeared across her forehead.
She Bit down hard on her lip and glared at me with furious wolf eyes. “You… what did you do to me?”
I met her gaze coldly. “This needle stimulates your pain nerves. If you don’t want to suffer any more…” My voice turned icy. Tell what poison Kade was given. And tell me where the antidote is.”
Mary’s entire body trembled. But she still clenched her teeth. “I… I don’t know! Even if you kill me, I won’t tell you anything:”
frowned. Frustration surged through me. Without hesitation, I pushed the needle deeper.
“AHHH!” Mary nearly collapsed. Her legs gave out beneath her. She slumped onto the floor, paie as a ghost. Blood trickled from he lips where she’d bitten them too hard. Even then, she refused to break.
Zane watched from the side. A trace of pity crossed his face. He stepped forward and sighed. “Luna. Why are you doing this? Mr Howell is your son. Can you really stand by and watch him die?”
Mary could barely speak through the pain. Yet her eyes remained filled with hatred. “Don’t waste your time you it get nothing from me.” She laughed weakly. “I’m his biological mother. The First Luna of the Park Alliance. What exactly do you think you can do NO me?”
My jaw tightened as I realized every second mattered.
Kade didn’t have much time left We couldn’t keep wasting it here.
I pulled the needle free and looked down at her coldly “You’d better pray Kade survives. Because if he doesn’t. “My eyes narrowed “I won’t let you off the hook”
After that, I turned away very had already found something a broken fragment from a coffee cup. Poison residue stillingered of it I picked it up carefully then looked at Zane “Tet’s pu
He nodded immediately Together we left the room
The moment we stepped outside, I started giving orders “Put someone on Mrs. Mary Howell twenty four hour surveillance Don’t let her leave the estate. Also, investigate everyone she’s been in contact with recently” My expression darkened. “Especially whoever supplied the poison”

“Got it.” Zane nodded.
After a moment of hesitation, he asked quietly, “Do you really think Mrs. Mary Howel poisoned him?”
My chest tightened. The possibility itself burt. If the person who poisoned Kade was truly his own mom, I couldn’t even imagine
what that would do to him.
I looked ahead grimly. “I’m certain he was poisoned in fer room.”
Zane’s expression became equally heavy. “Understood.” He didn’t ask another question.
Meanwhile, I rushed back to the hospital with the coffee cup fragments.
Finding the poison was the only way to create an antidote. And the only way to save Kade.
The moment I entered the ward, everything changed. Kade suddenly coughed violently. Then black blood poured from his mouth The horrifying sight nearly scared Briar and the others out of their minds.
Fortunately, I’d arrived just in time. I rushed to his bedside and immediately inserted several needies. Only then did the bleeding inally stop.
silence filled the room. I stared at the black blood staining the floor.
