It was Lara.
She was talking angrily on the phone. “How is the boy getting better?! You said the doses were small and no one would notice!”
Eliana’s heart stopped.
Lara continued, whispering, “If Baher suspects me, everything will be lost!”
Eliana rushed back before she could be discovered.
Her hands were trembling.
The stepmother was definitely involved.
But the more dangerous question was, “Who’s with her?”
Half an hour later, Eliana was trying to calm herself down in Ryan’s room.

As soon as he saw her, he tugged at her clothes and whispered, “Don’t leave me.”
Eliana moved closer to him. “I won’t leave you.”
Ryan swallowed hard. “She comes at night.”
“Eliana, who’s frozen?”
The child looked towards the door fearfully. “The woman who smells sweet puts medicine in the milk and tells me if I tell Daddy, he’ll die.”
Eliana felt her blood run cold.

Eliana replied calmly, “I want a full toxicology analysis.”
