“So according to you, Elissa is the one responsible for poisoning me? But what motive did she have to do that? I barely know that woman at all.Killing me wouldn‘t benefit her in any way.”

Natalie was wholly taken aback by what she had been told.

At the same time, however, she felt that it would be highly unusual for Elissa to have any desire to poison her.

All it would have done was expose her, which, in all honesty, was somewhat stupid in the grand scheme of things.Sebastian said with absolute certainty, “I think that I must have been her prime target.Perhaps you became the victim purely by accident.”

In the past, Elissa had tried to murder him on numerous occasions.However, she was yet to succeed.She probably just wanted to take another shot at it now.However, he was no longer the Sebastian he used to be.

After that, Sebastian took Natalie to the hospital for two more thorough check–ups.They didn‘t leave until Sebastian was absolutely certain and convinced that she was fine.

Natalie sat in the car, watching the passing scenery flash by, when she asked, “Sebastian, do you remember we went to a Michelin star restaurant for dinner a few days ago? We haven‘t had a chance to have dinner together lately, except for that night.Do you think that was when I was poisoned? She wanted to poison you.I could have eaten the food that was originally meant for you by mistake, so I inadvertently became victim.”

The Michelin star restaurant left a long–lasting and deep impression on Natalie.It had an amazing ambience, delicately balanced cuisine and delicious wine.

When Sebastian heard her words, the restaurant also popped into his mind.

Recently, Natalie had become very busy with her work, so they seldom spent time together.

During that time, Sean was the person who was responsible for bringing Sebastian his food to his office.

Sean was his right–hand man so he was certain that the safety and quality of the food he brought him was guaranteed.

If anyone did want to poison Sebastian, they would have to take the chance while he was out eating at a restaurant.

Last time Sebastian ate out, he had dined with Natalie at that three star Michelin restaurant.

“True.It must have happened at the restaurant,” he conceded after some thought.

His sixth sense told him that something was amiss.He immediately instructed the driver, “Take us straight to Iris.”
