Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 1239 The Same Scheme

Veronica's lips curved slightly. She wasn't surprised by Zac's words.

"I came here today to ask about my two children. If you don't want to tell me, then forget it."

She paused for a few seconds. "As for cooperation, do you really think I would work with someone who killed my husband?"

Only a fool would willingly engage in such a dangerous alliance.

Veronica couldn't understand why Zac believed she was foolish enough to think they could work together.

Zac maintained his composure and swirled the red wine in his glass. His azure eyes fixated on the swirling crimson liquid, completely ignoring Veronica.

It seemed that he was confident in the matter of cooperation.

Seeing that he had no intention of responding, Veronica rose to leave.

However, as she attempted to stand, her vision darkened. She collapsed back on the sofa, feeling utterly weak.

In an instant, Veronica felt completely powerless, unable to exert any strength. Even sitting up became a challenge for her.

"What... What did you do to me?"

Her eyes flared with anger at Zac, demanding an explanation.

She struggled to muster her energy, and her voice came out as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

"Your cleverness has outwitted you." Zac laughed and reclined. "Knowing how clever you are, I had a special incense burned, one that's both colorless and odorless."
Veronico's lips curved slightly. She wosn't surprised by Zoc's words.

"I come here todoy to osk obout my two children. If you don't wont to tell me, then forget it."

He raised his hand slightly, wiggling the stemmed glass, gesturing to Veronica. "Here, the wine is the antidote. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."

Zac placed the antidote in the wine and poured it for Veronica.

Yet, he was confident that she, with her cautious nature, would never drink it.

As expected, everything went as planned.
