Omnipotent Mrs. Finn novel Chapter 409

Levi never thought that things would take such a turn for the worse.

"Who exactly is behind this to help the Williamson’s? At this juncture, everyone is backing away from it, no one would be foolish."

Ruby had no idea, but only said, "I've asked Josie to continue to investigate, let's wait for the results."

She paused and was about to say something, but Layton came knocking on the door.

"Raphael has woken up, Ruby, come and see."

At these words, Ruby could only put her thoughts away for the time being and turned around to go to the next room.

Raphael was leaning against the bed at this moment, drinking his medicine, when he heard the movement, he looked up and revealed a weak but gentle smile.

"Ruby, you're here, thank you, it's been hard work for you."

Ruby shook her head, looked at his still pale face and reached out to check his pulse.

A moment later, she withdrew her hand and said in a light voice, "The residual poison has been cleared, so you need to drink more medicine to consolidate it."

Raphael nodded, "Okay."

Ruby was silent and took the initiative to ask, "What are you going to do?"

Although she didn't ask for specifics, Raphael instantly understood it.

His eyes were half-lidded, hiding the emotions beneath them, and the curve of his mouth narrowed as he did not immediately reply.

In the bedroom, silence spread around.

After a few moments, his voice, slightly hoarse from having been asleep for so long, rang out.

"No idea, Layton has already told me about the whole story, I know you are fighting for me, thank you very much."

Ruby pursed her lips, "It's not all for you, he went to such great lengths to get my grandfather's relics, and I won't swallow this anger easily."

"Well, I understand."

Raphael nodded, his pale face almost visible as red blood beneath the skin.

"I've been in the Williamson family for years carefully, afraid that if I make a mistake, I'll cause trouble for myself and the Williamson family, but even so, he still didn't treat me as a member of the Williamson family, and poisoned me, something I never expected, but it's something he would do. He is a man with a lust for profit, for money, he can do anything, kinship to him is just a bargaining chip, when it is useless, it is a discard, family in his eyes is just as worthless as rubbish."

His dry lips looked paler as he said so much.

Ruby could only say: "Your body is still not well, you will stay here to recuperate these days, don't worry, there are people from Levi and I guarding this place, no one can break in, as long as you want, you can stay here forever. When you want to go back to the Williamson’s, you can leave anytime."

Raphael reluctantly pulled up the corners of his lips and smiled, "Okay, thank you, Ruby."

After talking for a while, tiredness returned and he drank some more porridge and drifted off to sleep again.

Ruby exited from the room and stood in the corridor, silent.

Seeing this, Levi raised his hand and rubbed her hair.

"Don't think too much, Josie is checking it out, as for Raphael, let him make his own choices about the Williamson family, you've done a good job."

Rubys eyes were half-lidded as she nodded gently.
