Chapter 908
Shawn raised an eyebrow. “With her abilities? She’s not capable of fooling me.”
“Mr. Wood, where did these herbs come from? Did she buy them?”
“Aurum gave them.”
Fiona was stunned. “Mr. Lefting?”
That was what Shawn had been confused about as well.
Aurum had helped Gale wholeheartedly. Aurum had even dared to help Gale fake her death. Gale
trusted Aurum quite a lot as well. He had no reason to harm Nicole.
If Aurum really wanted to harm Nicole, he would not use the Lefting family name to send the
herbs over!
It was just too st**pid!
Yet, who would it be if it was not Aurum?
Who switched out Aurum’s gift?
Fiona thought about it. “Based on what I know, Mr. Lefting is usually quite busy with work. Ms. Yarn is usually the one who deals with all the household affairs.”
Shawn bit out every word. “Natalie Yarn?”
The name triggered some of his memories.
Before Gale jumped into the sea, she had been meeting Aurum very frequently. The two of them constantly discussed things, and Natalie had found it strange.
Natalie had even approached him! She told him Aurum and Gale had a secret between them!
He ended up believing her and had Joe look into it.
Unfortunately, Joe had not been able to find anything. Right after that, Gale jumped into the sea. So the matter was set aside and forgotten.
Shawn narrowed his eyes slowly.
There was no way Aurum would hurt Nicole, but Natalie was different.
“Fiona.”
“Yes, Mr. Wood.”
“Call the housekeeper of the Lefting household right now. Ask him where he got those herbs and that you want some too,” Shawn said.
“Yes.”
Fiona did as she was instructed, switching the speakers on.
“Hello, who is this?”
“Oh, I’m the assistant of Wood Group’s president, Fiona. I’m sorry for troubling you so late.”
The housekeeper said, “It’s fine. Do you need anything? Are you looking for Mr. Lefting?”
Fiona laughed and answered, “No, no. It’s already so late. Who would dare to disturb Mr. Lefting? I remember Mr. Lefting asked you to send over some herbs before Ms. Nicole had her surgery.”
“Yes, Ms. Yarn was the one who picked out the herbs and asked me to send them.”
Fiona deliberately asked, “So, they weren’t from Mr. Lefting. They were from Ms. Yarn?”
“Now that’s something surprising’ to say. Ms. Yarn will be Mrs. Lefting soon. They’re one family. We don’t differentiate them.”
“Haha, that’s true. I just feel like those herbs were really good. I want some as gifts as well. I just wanted to ask you where they’re from.”
The housekeeper answered, “I don’t know. Ms. Yarn bought them herself. They aren’t cheap. I don’t think they’re gifts we can afford, honestly.”
With the answer in hand, Fiona chatted for a bit more before hanging up.
Shawn had a cold smile on his face as he leaned into the chair. “Natalie Yarn.”
“Mr. Wood, Natalie and Winnie were best friends in the past. Could…”
“Monitor her. If anything strange happens, tell me immediately!” Shawn ordered. “Yes!”
“Also, issue a reward for anyone who’s able to figure out how to cure that poison in secret will be able to get anything they want from me!”
