The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 578

Even Charles was helping Lyra. Travis can't argue with her, grunted sorrowfully, made a gesture to straighten out his suit and left the room.

Once he left, Lyra asked all the servants in the room, except Charles, away with excuses.

"There are so many people at the villa today. It's a mess. You guys go down and greet them, serve fruits, snacks and great tea. Don't allow anyone to come near the door of this room until the doctors examine Rudolph's body. Do you hear me clearly?"

"Yes, Mrs. White."

A group of servants soon left the room.

The bedroom instantly became quite spacious. Except Rudolph who was unconscious on the bed, only Micah, Lyra, Charles and the medical team were in the room.

Micah finished examining Rudolph's body and checked the medications he was taking recently.

He shared basically the same opinion as the medical team, "It should have been food poisoning from eating foods that are compatible with the medication. So it resulted in unconsciousness."

Now that the room was full of her own people, Lyra simply said, "How could he eat foods that are incompatible? Charles, you prepare the food and watch him eating, right?"

Charles was deep in thought, "I really did not leave Rudolph. I have checked everything he ate. All is edible. And the chefs are aware of Mr. Rudolph's conditions so they make food particularly carefully. There should no problem."

Everyone in the room fell into silence.

For no reason, Lyra recalled the episode when Travis knelt bedside and cried.

Although he was showing his filial piety, Lyra disliked him from the bottom of her heart, and even felt that he was acting very pretentiously as if he was deliberately crying in front of them.

With that in mind, she asked Charles, "Was Travis there when grandpa had his lunch?"

Charles shook his head, "Mr. Travis came in in the afternoon. Probably spent some time alone with Mr. Rudolph in the study reading books. It seemed they have drank a pot of tea."

Tea?

Lyra frowned, "Has he eaten anything else?"

"This is not so clear. After all, there are fruits and snacks in the study. They were at the study alone. I am sure it is not convenient to go in and listen to their conversation. But after coming out of the study, Mr. Rudolph said he did not eat anything, and Mr. Travis did not bring anything over today."

The room fell silent again.

Although Charles said so, Lyra always felt that things were fishy.

It was too coincidental.

No one can be trusted and it was not easy to investigate.

Lyra said decisively, "It is not like he accidentally ate the wrong thing on his own but it's more like someone deliberately did this to him. It's really not that easy to investigate this. We can call the police directly. Get the police down here, bring in everyone who's been in close proximity to grandpa today. Then we'll find something. "

Charles objected, "Mrs. White, you can't do this. If Mr. Rudolph wakes up, I'm afraid he'll not be in favor of making it a big deal. Once this matter becomes a deliberate murder. Mr. Malcolm is not there and the clan will be chaotic."

Lyra just said that she was aware of the stakes of the situation.

As soon as Malcolm returned, the White family will have a backbone and these matters will be handled well.

But Malcolm was not here. It was best to keep this matter secret and see what the offender will do next.

She said, "So let's just forget about all of this. The medical team and Micah will do their best to save grandpa. When he wakes up, he may know it clear what happened."

Charles bowed, "Yes, Mrs. White."

Lyra looked at Micah and thanked him again, "Thanks, Micah. I'm relieved to have you here to keep an eye on this."

Micah's expression was bland, "It's not a big deal. You can rest assured about that and leave it to me. You can keep dealing with your business."
