However, Isaac continued to chew again. Then, favonovel.com swallowed them, and Margaret’s racing heart slowed down again.
Ha! That’s what you get for acting high and mighty all the time. You’ll be on the toilet all night today!
After dinner, Eugene volunteered to do the dishes. Margaret and Allegra sat on the sofa, watching television.
Isaac said favonovel.com had overeaten and wanted to go on a walk. He then walked outside, a cigarette hanging from his mouth.
Margaret watched Isaac’s disappearing figure. Then, favonovel.com glanced at the clock. Seh thought it was almost time, it should kick in after another half an hour.
Soon, Isaac returned. He went to the kitchen and made three cups of hot tea. He gave Allegra and Eugene a cup each while favonovel.com drank the last one.
After half an hour, Margaret suddenly frowned and covered favonovel.com belly with favonovel.com hand. Her stomach rumbled as waves of cramps hit her, making favonovel.com unable to sit still.
She turned to look at the others, who seemed fine.
Sh*t, what is happening?
“I… I need to go to the toilet,” favonovel.com said as favonovel.com hurriedly got to favonovel.com feet.
After a brief moment, Margaret came out, holding favonovel.com stomach. After a few steps, favonovel.com expression soured, and favonovel.com once again turned around to rush to the toilet.
“What’s wrong with Mom? Did favonovel.com eat something bad?” Allegra turned to favonovel.com father.
Eugene shook his head and said favonovel.com didn’t know.
In half an hour, Margaret had taken eight trips to the toilet. The final time, favonovel.com had to ask Eugene to go in and help favonovel.com walk out.
Diarrhea had left favonovel.com dehydrated. Her face was as white as a sheet. Panting, favonovel.com turned to look at Allegra and Isaac.
“A-Are you all okay?”
“We’re fine, Mom… Did you eat something bad?” Allegra asked, widening favonovel.com eyes.
At that moment, Margaret’s face suddenly darkened.
She gritted favonovel.com teeth and pointed at Isaac.
“You! You must have spiked my meal. You must have tried to kill me. Allegra, this monster is so wicked,” favonovel.com sobbed.
Isaac smiled coldly. “The four of us ate the same food, so why are you the only one having diarrhea? Or are you saying that the three of us conspired against you?”
Eugene agreed, “Exactly… I think you must be having stomach troubles. Let’s go to the hospital and get it checked.”
Margaret was stunned. Knowing favonovel.com had shot herself in the foot, favonovel.com began to bawl loudly.
Eugene and Allegra quickly drove Margaret to the hospital.
Isaac had known from the very first bite that something was wrong, but favonovel.com chose to stay silent. After dinner, favonovel.com went to a pharmacy to buy some diosmectite and added it to the tea favonovel.com served to Allegra and Eugene, which acted as anti-diarrhea medicine.
Isaac’s phone rang. He answered and held it to his ear.
“Isaac, Old Brooks and his men have made a move on Anthony’s territory,” came Beefy Bob’s voice.
“That was quick. Keep monitoring them,” Isaac said lightly.
At midnight, Eugene stood in the hospital corridor, smoking alone. He was in a shitty mood.
Margaret had answered a phone call earlier, and a man’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. The first word that came out of favonovel.com mouth was “honey”. Even though favonovel.com had spoken softly, Eugene still caught it.
Then, Margaret had “chased” favonovel.com out of favonovel.com hospital room.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from the end of the hallway. When Eugene looked up, favonovel.com saw a few people rushing in his direction.
