Chapter 255

Hearing this, Victoria smiled and explained, “The best stuff is always hard to come by, and this poison’s no different. It’s like I can whip up a bunch whenever I want–I only ever made five”

“To be honest, Simon was the lucky one, the second person to get hit with it”

“Faye was the third, so I’ve only got two left on me now.”

She continued. “The reason this poison can’t be found in someone’s system is because the venom is actually extracted fr Blackie’s mouth.”

“Blackie’s the one who controls it. As long as Blackie doesn’t trigger a reaction, the person won’t show any symptoms, an won’t show up in any tests.”

“If I take too much venom from Blackie, it’ll hurt him. And if anything happens to Blackie, the poison loses all its power- that’s how you really get rid of it. The antidote I made just suppresses the poison, so anyone who’s been poisoned has to the medicine regularly.”

Jackson got it and said, “If anyone finds out the real way to cure the poison, Blackie’s life would be in danger. The more people get poisoned, the more danger Blackie’s in.”

Victoria nodded. “Yeah, that’s how it is.”

Jackson said, “So, using such a rare poison on Faye seems like a bit of a waste, doesn’t it?”

“Waste or not, if I get the urge, I’ll just go ahead and do it,” Victoria shrugged, unconcerned. “Anyway. I’ve got other types poison. They might not be impossible to detect, but if I just want to make someone suffer, they’ll do the trick.

After finishing the acupuncture, Victoria took out some essential oil and rubbed it onto Jackson’s knees and calves. Then si called out Whitey and Greenie.

Normally, Whitey would just quietly get to work, but this time, instead of starting the massage, he climbed onto Jackson thigh and just stared at him, eyes locked.

Jackson shot Victoria a puzzled look.

Victoria explained, “Whitey’s probably warning you–don’t spill the secret that if Blackie dies, the poison’s gone.” Jackson was momentarily stunned, then flashed Whitey a gentle smile. “Don’t worry, I won’t breathe a word”

Only then did Whitey curl around his knee and start the massage.

Jackson couldn’t help but sigh, “Honestly, they care more about loyalty and bonds than most people.”

Speaking of that, Victoria looked at Whitey and Greenie wrapped around Jackson’s legs and couldn’t help but smile. “Yeah, otherwise all three wouldn’t have ended up in my care. One of them bit Master Icon’s wife, so he tracked them dow The other two refused to leave their friend behind, so all three got caught together.”

Jackson glanced down, and somehow, having these two little stake’s massaging his legs didn’t feel as

visit. I’ll tell Zoe not to cook for you tonight.”

“Mm–hmm-“Victoria replied.

After work, Victoria hopped into the car Jackson drove to pick her up, her coworkers shooting her envious looks as she le

At seven o’clock that evening, the car pulled up to the Thornton family’s mansion.

After getting out, Victoria personally pushed Jackson’s wheelchair and headed straight for the front hall

“Jack, you were right–it really is Faye,” Victoria whispered with a knowing smile in Jackson’s ear, glancing at Faye and Xa sitting in the front hall.

But there was one person whose presence she hadn’t expected.

That was Simon.

The moment Victoria saw Simon, she instantly figured out why he was there.

‘Heh, of course–he’s just here to be Faye’s witness and testify that I actually poisoned her, Victoria thought with a hint of

sarcasm.

With that thought, Victoria didn’t even bother to acknowledge Simon–she acted like he wasn’t even there.

In stark contrast to Victoria’s icy disregard, Simon stiffened up the moment he spotted his sister. For a brief second, he nearly sprang to his feet, ready to call her name.

But when he saw she wasn’t going to look his way, Simon swallowed the impulse, and the excitement drained from his fact Seeing Victoria’s face, totally unfazed, Faye had to hold herself back from teaching her a lesson right on the spot.

Jackson grinned. “Grandpa, I brought Vickie over.”

As he spoke, he shot a glance at Xavier and Faye, his smile warm and easy. “Look at me, I almost forgot. Xavier, glad you found Faye–just as long as she’s safe, that’s all that matters.”

Faye was speechless.

‘Ugh, I can’t stand that smug smile!‘ Faye grumbled to herself.

Xavier stayed silent.

Jackson went on, “Grandpa, why are Xavier and Faye here too? Is this a family dinner tonight? If so, why didn’t you invite Cassian and Darren as well?”

Faye forced a smile, barely keeping her anger in check. “Jackson, you know perfectly well why I’m here–why bother playing dumb?”

Jackson raised an eyebrow, sounding genuinely confused. “Playing dumb? What makes you say that?”

Faye was speechless.

Victoria stifled a laugh. Jack just loves to drive people crazy with his over–the–top politeness, she thought

Gerry waved her over. “Alright, Vickie, have a scat”

“Okay, Grandpa Victoria replied.

Victoria wheeled Jackson to the sofa across from Faye and took a seat beside him.

“Grandpa, did you call me over today just because you missed me?” Victoria teased, playing coy just like Jackson always de not even sparing Faye a glance despite her obvious irritation.

Gerry smiled warmly. “Of course I missed you. It’s been ages since you last visited.”

Victoria let out a dramatic sigh. ‘Grandpa, you have no idea how crazy busy I am running the company these days. But if you ever miss me, just let Jack know like you did today, and I’ll drop everything to come see you!”

“Alright, alright… Gerry couldn’t help but laugh. For some reason, just hearing Victoria talk always put him in a good moc

How is Grandpa still laughing right now?! Faye grumbled to herself.

Seeing this, Faye, struggling to keep her cool, shot Gerry a look and reminded him, “Grandpa, don’t forget why you invite Victoria over tonight.”

Victoria put on an innocent face. “Grandpa, what does Faye, sis, mean by that? Are you saying you didn’t call me over just because you missed me?”

Sis? Seriously? Faye thought, completely thrown off.

Unbelievable! At a time like this, Victoria still has the nerve to call me “sis” like we’re best friends?

How does she even have the guts to pull this off? Faye muttered bitterly to herself.

Faye shot Victoria a glare. “Enough with the act, Ms. Binder. This isn’t the time for games.”

Gerry’s smile faded, and he let out a sigh. “Vickie, Faye claims you poisoned her.”

Victoria blinked in surprise. “Poisoned her? Gerry, why would I poison Faye, sis, out of the blue?”

‘She says you threatened her because of Jackson,” Gerry said, glancing at his grandson. “Jackson, Faye claims that when she came to the old mansion that day, you suddenly kidnapped her. Is that true?”

Jackson said helplessly, “Grandpa, why would I kidnap Faye for no reason?”

After saying that, he turned to Faye and added, “Seriously, Faye, what reason would I ever have to kidnap you?“

Secing Jackson deny it with a straight face, Faye burst out angrily, “Because you wanted to hold me hostage so my brother would drop out of the race to be the Thornton family heir!”

Xavier knew Faye was lying through her teeth. Jackson only kidnapped her because Xavier had taken Cassian first, trying to use him as bait to force Jackson to go to Afriska.

But what really caught Xavier off guard was that Jackson didn’t just stop there—he went all in and had Faye kidnapped right

back!

Jackson just sighed, still sounding helpless. “If I really wanted to pull that off, wouldn’t it make more sense to just grab your brother? Why bother kidnapping you to threaten him?”

Xavier knew there was no way to prove Jackson had kidnapped Faye. Even if Gerry suspected it, he’d never admit in without evidence. Bo Xavier cut straight to the point, “Who took my sister doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is she’s been poisoned and only Ms. Binder can fix it“.

I made sure to check with Simon about it,” Xavier said.

Tant that night, Simon? You got hit with the same poison as my sister, didn’t you?” Xavier asked, looking right at him
