Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Sorry, my friend didn’t come to Country W Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Sorry, my friend didn’t come to Country W Outside the hospital, the driver had been waiting at the back door for a while.

Seeing Baron Lawrence and Enna Clark coming out, he hurriedly opened the car door, “Lord, Ms. Clark.”

As the dignified and proud man approached, the driver noticed the injury on the man’s left face and was clearly taken aback for a moment.

The Lord injured?

Who did this?

He was momentarily stunned, then a chill ran down his spine as he felt a cold, stern gaze upon him. He immediately wiped the surprised expression off his face and lowered his head, afraid of sparking any ire.

“Baron Lawrence, is your face alright?” Enna Clark, oblivious to the driver’s minor actions, asked worriedly as she pulled back on the man striding forward, hesitated for a moment, and added, “Shouldn’t you get some ointment for that at the hospital first? And what about Grandpa, aren’t you going to see him?”

No sooner had she spoken than the pressure on her wrist increased, as if intending to crush her bones.

“Do you want to end up in the police station?”

Damn it, why all the chit-chat?

So noisy!

Baron Lawrence’s handsome brows furrowed and his thin lips formed a straight line as he commanded authoritatively, “Get in the car!”

The doctor had said that the Old Man needed to stay in isolation for the time being, he wouldn’t be able to see him even if he wanted to. Instead of standing uselessly outside a glass window, it was better to do something meaningful until the Old Man was moved to a regular room!

Enna Clark was forcibly pulled into the car by him.

The driver, with quick awareness, promptly shut the car door for them, and ran to the front to get the car moving.

“Lord, where do we head to now?”

“Back to the resort!”

“Yes.”

The car turned and sped off in the direction of Elysion Resort—

…
In the car.

The atmosphere was silent for a while.

From the moment they boarded, the handsome man had not spoken a single word; with his side profile sharp and concentrating, it was impossible to decipher his thoughts.

In the midst of the extreme quiet, Enna Clark suddenly broke the silence, saying, “Baron Lawrence, I’m sorry.”

Taking a deep breath, she continued, “I shouldn’t have lied to you. My friend didn’t come to Country W, and I wasn’t out for tea with a friend this morning. I went to meet Grandpa. The housekeeper called me to say that Grandpa came to Spirelin City and suddenly wanted Tomato and Egg Noodles, asking me not to tell you, so… I lied.”

“I’m sorry.”

Had she known that one lie would lead to so many events, she might not have lied.

Instead, she would have honestly told Baron Lawrence that she was going to see the Old Master.

But given the circumstances at the time, it was impossible for her to tell Baron Lawrence. After all, the Housekeeper had said that the Old Master didn’t want Baron Lawrence to know about his visit to Spirelin City and wanted her to keep it secret. As a younger family member, how could she go against the Old Master’s wishes?

She still didn’t understand what had happened after she left, why the Old Master would suffer from food poisoning. And the Housekeeper, why did he suffer the same fate as the Old Master from food poisoning? Could it be that after she left, the Housekeeper ate what was left of the Tomato and Egg Noodles she had made?

But the Tomato and Egg Noodles she had made were absolutely clean, there was no way they could be poisoned.

Enna Clark was frustrated and disconcerted, the events had unfolded so suddenly. She knew it was a trap, and she had fallen into it, but she couldn’t figure out who did it and why.

She was certain that there was nothing wrong with the tomato and egg ingredients, and nothing was wrong with the Tomato and Egg Noodles she made. Then who put the poison in the Tomato and Egg Noodles? If the hotel’s surveillance videos only showed her going in and out, then how had that person behind the scenes gotten into the Old Master’s room? And by what means did he poison the Old Master and the Housekeeper? She was completely in the dark.
