Chapter 394 He Might Be Poisoned
A doctor in a white coat stepped out of the emergency room, his face obscured behind a thick surgical mask. His eyes drifted over to them.

Sienna locked eyes with him and rushed forward. “How’s Samuel? Is he okay?”
“He’s not in any immediate danger now,” the doctor said, letting

ut a long breath.
“But… I don’t know…” The doctor’s brows furrowed slightly; frustration and helplessness flickered in his eyes. “We don’t know what caused it, so we can’t predict when he might wake up.”.
“We need to identify the cause before we can begin targeted treatment.”
He sighed. “Right now, we’re just keeping him stable; his life’s not at risk for the time being… but we still need to find out what triggered this.”
“We’ve already run tests–his organs are functioning normally–so we’re baffled as to why his condition
became so severe.”
As she listened, Sienna clenched her fingers tightly.
Her lips pressed together without her realizing it; disappointment filled her gaze.
Seeing her like that, the doctor couldn’t help trying to comfort her. “Dr. Samuel’s a good man; we all like and respect him very much… Don’t worry. We’ll do everything we can to save him.”
“I think… he might’ve been poisoned.”
Just then, Jean–who had been silent the whole time–stood up from her

The doctor’s eyes widened; Sienna’s face froze in shock, and Dominic raised his brows.
“Jean, do you know something?” Sienna stepped in front of her, gripping her shoulders. “How could he be poisoned out of nowhere? Who would want to hurt him like that?”
Jean shook her head. “I don’t know who would want to hurt him, but I think-”

Jean told them exactly what the novel had described.

The two of them returned to Samuel’s office, hoping to find his asthma medication.
Only by locating the medicine and analyzing its contents could they uncover what had been done to it
But-
They couldn’t find Samuel’s inhaler anywhere.
It was as if it had vanished into thin air.
Jean’s fingers curled tightly; her brows knotted hard.
This doesn’t make sense… Could it be that the mastermind already destroyed the inhaler? After all, it’s the kind of critical evidence that absolutely has to be wiped out–or it could come back to haunt them.
Sienna caught Jean’s murmured thought.
Her eyes narrowed on instinct; she fell into deep thought. A mastermind? What mastermind? How much did Jean actually know…
“Jean, tell me,” Sienna asked bluntly, without hesitation. “What’s going on? Do you know who did this?” Jean opened her mouth, hesitated, then finally spoke after a long pause. “I just suspect… the person who tried to kidnap me before, the one who caused Dominic’s plane crash, and now nearly got Samuel killed… might be the same person.”
At that, Sienna’s pupils trembled.
Her face froze in shock.
It took a long moment before she finally began to process what she’d heard.
