The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 49

Palmer had certainly heard of the Nourishment Pill before!

The Abyssal Organization had previously tried to acquire the Nourishment Pill under the guise of the Pollack Group. All their attempts to send out feelers had sunk like a stone in the sea. which showed that the power behind the Nourishment Pill wasn’t something the average Joe could fathom.

“How the heck did this thing end up in Grandpa’s meds!”

Annie pulled up the surveillance footage from Sexton’s hospital room.

Sexton’s eyes nearly popped out of his skull when he saw it!

“Hey, when did you sneak a camera into my room? Didn’t I say no cameras allowed?”

Marcel frowned. “So why hasn’t he passed out now? Last time he got poisoned so he passed out. It should be the same deal this time!”

Noella was silent for a moment.

“Because Grandpa Sexton is picky with his meds. He doesn’t take the ones that aren’t pretty, so he avoided the ones that would react with the Nourishment Pill”
