Chapter 187 - 187: 187: Caleb Mamet Gets Poisoned
Caleb Mamet: ‘
This guy must be out of his mind! He should think about getting a new assistant.
At this moment, the butler knocked on the door, “Sir, the lady said she went to find Master Sullivan, so she won’t be coming back tonight.”
Crash!
Caleb’s face darkened, and the cup in his hand shattered into pieces.
She dares not to come home for the night?
And even stay at Albert Sullivan’s place?
Caleb’s face turned gloomy, while Steve Price quickly changed the subject, eager to please his boss to get a raise.
“Sir, I think…”
Albert Sullivan frowned: “Who had night blindness? Why are you so anxious to find me?”
Xaviera Evans looked somewhat guilty: “Just tell me if you can cure it.”
Albert Sullivan thought for a moment, he had stopped cooperating with the Evans family, causing the company veterans to pressure Derek Evans, and thought little Xaviera was here to thank him. To his surprise, she hurried over to ask why someone would go blind at night.
Albert Sullivan looked at her curiously, “Little Xaviera, based on what you described, I don’t think it’s ordinary night blindness. People with night blindness have weakened vision at night, but they don’t go completely blind.”
“Maybe it’s not a disease, but poisoning.”
Xaviera’s face changed, realizing that this might be the case.
She asked immediately: “Could it be a mental illness, because he was always locked in a dark room as a child, and was only released after many days, could it be the shadow of his childhood that caused his blindness?”
Albert Sullivan pondered, “That’s possible too, but I think the chance of a mental illness causing complete blindness is not high because I’ve heard of a person who had the same symptoms as your friend.”
Albert Sullivan’s face turned serious: “She would also go blind at night and regain her sight during the day, so she had to keep the light on even when she slept. Not long after, she couldn’t stand the torment and died.”
Xaviera asked hurriedly: “Who was she?”
“Winni Drew.” Albert Sullivan said word by word.
Xaviera’s heart skipped a beat!
If that’s the case, it means Caleb Mamet and Winni Drew were poisoned by the same substance!
“Miss Drew was poisoned for many years, and the old man (miracle doctor) was powerless to save her.”
Albert Sullivan frowned; the old man (miracle doctor) could save even those at the brink of death.
But he couldn’t save Winni Drew and watched her pass away.
“After Miss Drew’s death, the old man (miracle doctor) has been researching the antidote for this poison. Maybe he has a way to detoxificate now. There is still hope for your friend.”
Xaviera’s head was heavy. She remembered her grandfather mentioning that he had saved many people in his life, but there was only one person he couldn’t save despite doing everything he could.
Now, there might be no cure for Caleb…
At this moment, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts. Steve Price’s trembling voice came through, “Madam, sir, he…”
Xaviera became instantly worried, “What happened to Caleb?”
Steve Price sobbed twice and said helplessly, “Sir got injured when he saved you, and the wound is infected, sob…”
Xaviera’s pupils contracted sharply, “Go to the hospital quickly!”
“Madam, he refuses to go. Can you persuade him?” Steve Price’s sad tone continued as he played along, “Sir won’t take any medicine and won’t go to the hospital. I don’t know what to do with him. Only the lady can manage him…”
Xaviera hurriedly got up and quickly left.
Albert Sullivan was stunned.
Could it be that the friend Xaviera mentioned is Caleb Mamet?
He had to admit that Caleb Mamet is indeed a good man and treats little Xaviera well.
However…
The old man (miracle doctor) might not agree, after all, Miss Drew…
Little Xaviera respects the old man (miracle doctor) the most, and when the time comes, she might have to make a tough decision.
Lowen Clubhouse.
Steve Price grinned, “Sir, madam will be back soon!”
Caleb Mamet responded indifferently, with a hint of fatigue between his brows. It was almost evening, and though the sun had not set, he felt a sting in his eyes.
Opening them again, his vision was blurry and unfocused.
He could only see Steve Price’s silhouette, but not his expression.
Caleb closed his eyes, seemingly getting worse.
Xaviera rushed back to the Lowen Clubhouse just as the sun was setting. Caleb was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed and forehead furrowed. All the lights in the living room were on, and Steve Price and the butler were nowhere to be seen.
Xaviera walked slowly toward Caleb.
He was said to be injured, but there were no visible wounds on his body. He just looked weary and weak…
Xaviera suddenly remembered Albert Sullivan’s words, her heart trembling.. Could it be that Caleb is having a case of poisoning?
