My mystery lover

Chapter 356 The Death of Jacob

When everyone wanted to send Jacob to hospital immediately, Allison insisted on calling the police.

"There is no time left. If we don't send him to hospital now, his life will be in danger," said Amy to

Allison.

"No, I'll call the police first. It is impossible for him to have a stomachache immediately without reason.

There must be someone doing harm to him." Then Allison called the police.

Due to the stomachache, Jacob had fainted for several times. Cathy came here, too. Allison, however,

didn't agree to send him to hospital unless the police came.

Luckily, the police came quickly and investigated the scene. Then they kept the scene intact and sent

Jacob to hospital.

He was indeed poisoned. After arriving at the hospital, his guts decayed. It was a really strong poison.

Amy and Allison were controlled by the police and were interrogated to give some evidence.

"What happened just now?" asked the police to Amy. Amy told what happened in detail and said she

didn't know why he got poisoned.

"Hold out your hand. We need to get something," said the police. He observed her hands carefully and

found that there was something in her fingernails and the ring finger, which had not been rubbed away

completely yet.

"What's this?" asked the police.

"This? Maybe I got it somewhere. Perhaps it was dust." Amy took a look at it. It was light flesh-coloured

so she took no notice of it.

"OK, we're going to test it. Jacob is poisoned so everything on your body needs to be tested," said the

police to Amy.

"Alright." Amy nodded.

After the interrogation, the three people were not allowed to get back. Instead, the police arranged

three rooms for them to rest and let them wait for the result of the test.

When they were waiting, a bad news came that Jacob was poisoned to death. Amy recalled what had

happened but she didn't find any evidence showing that Allison poisoned him. At that time, Allison

wanted her to drink Jacob's water but she didn't do that. Didn't Allison want to poison her? But why

didn't she stop him from drinking that cup of tea?

Amy kept thinking about it. Suddenly, something occurred to her. Allison was calm since the accident. It

was she who offered to call the police. That meant she got into Allison's trap.

Richard stayed outside and felt very anxious but the police didn't allow him to see Amy. Cathy had

called him and told him what had happened. Since Jacob was poisoned to death, the police was strict

about this case. Therefore, they three could get home and see their families.

"My wife is timid. She must be very scared. May I go to comfort her?" said Richard to the police.

"No. They three are suspects now and your wife is the most suspected one. We have found something

in her hands, which is being tested. Please wait for a while. When the result of the test comes, you can

go to see her," said the leader of the police. He was very responsible. Even other people in the police

office said he could go to see Amy but he didn't agree.

"OK, when will the result come?" asked Richard. Hearing Amy was the most suspected one, he felt a

sense of a bad omen.

"It won't be so long. It has been sent to the laboratory already. Mr. Carter, I hope you can support my

work. As soon as the result comes, I will let you see her," said the leader. He showed respect for

Richard. He was always a policeman who insisted justice.

"Fine, I'll wait here." Richard called Cathy and asked her not to worry so much.

Sine someone was poisoned in the tea house, the surveillance footage of the VIP room was taken by

the police. All the guests in the tea house left quickly because it was very frightening to hear poisoning.

There were few people in the tea house now so Cathy went into the VIP room again. All the stuff they

had used including teapot were taken away. She stared at the empty room and had a lot of puzzles in

her mind.

Although Richard called her, she was still uneasy. Her son and Amy were in the police office and the

result hadn't come yet. How could she feel unworried?

Finally, the result came. The leader had mixed feelings when he saw the result. He told Richard that

the things in Amy's hands were what poisoned Jacob.

"Mr. Carter, since I promised you to see her, you can go now. This evidence is against your wife," said

the leader. Then he let Richard get in.

"Richard, you are here finally. I think I get in Allison's trap," said Amy. As soon as she saw him, she told

him that she had fallen into the trap.

"Yes, you have fallen into a trap. Tell me, where did you get the things in your hands?" asked Richard.

He was eager to know where Amy got those things in her hand.

"I don't know. I didn't poison him and I have no idea where I get those things. Oh, Allison held me once,

but I broke free immediately." Amy recalled what had happened.

"Amy, if those things are given by Allison, she must have them in her hands. I'll ask the police to see

whether there is something in her hands," said Richard. Then he went out to see the police.

"But she went to the toilet after that. Before Jacob was poisoned, she said she wanted to go to the

bathroom to freshen up. If she aimed to frame me, she must have destroyed the incriminating

evidence," said Amy. She felt upset now.

"Don't worry. I'll be always by your side and find the evidence to save," said Richard. He held her

tightly.

"I was so careless. I can't believe she is so cruel and merciless that she framed me by Jacob's life,"

said Amy. She was scared. How ruthless this woman would be to put lives at risk.

"She is inhuman. You can't consider her as a normal person. You don't have to worry so much. I'll think

about the solutions immediately." He comforted Amy.

"OK, I'll wait for your good news, Richard," said Amy. She knew the only one who could save her was This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Richard. She got into trouble again.

Allison was relieved. As the family of the victim, she cried bitterly when she was interrogated.

Nobody would suspect her because she never touched that cup and all the evidence showed that she

was innocent and had nothing to do with this poisoning.
