Chapter 323 How She Did It?
“It’s fine because I’m not really bothered by it,” said Gianna Silas assured her, “I understand and I know
how to handle this.” She then nodded slightly at him before leaving
Meanwhile, South gave him a wink and bade him farewell. “Uncle Silas, see you next time!” Silas
nodded at him with a smile. Staring at their figures which were getting further and further away from
him, he slowly adopted a solemn face as he turned around and made his way back to the mansion.
Looking guilty, Alex and Hayden followed behind him. For some reason, they felt responsible for the
matter although they were not the culprit
After all, Silas had entrusted Gianna to them because he was worried about her, but what happened in
the end? If Gianna had not been alert enough, she would have been the one who was looking like a
mess now instead of Aleena. No wonder Silas was so pissed with them!
It was only after they walked into a room did Silas turn around and glare at the two guys behind him
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdangerously Feeling coldness creeping down his neck, Alex tried to excuse himself guiltily, “Why are
you staring at us like that? We had no clue that she pulled off so many tricks just now!” Silas confronted
them in his exasperation, “What exactly took place at the table just now?” Alex responded resignedly,
“In fact, I really have no idea. Hayden, did you catch anything?” Hayden answered, “Nope because no
one left the table throughout the entire time. Right from the beginning until the end, Aleena only
proposed a toast to Doctor Aubrey once and they didn’t interact much with each other later on. I really
have no idea when she drugged the drink.”
Alex pointed out, “But when Gianna broke a plate when they were drinking, no one was looking at the
wine glasses as everyone’s attention was on the broken plate. Perhaps it’s during that time that Oilvia
swapped her drink with Aleena’s!” Alex had been busy observing Silas’s expression while talking. “Why
are you so angry over this matter? You should be pleased to have such a smart girlfriend who was not
only sharp enough to tell that her drink was drugged, but she even knew how to give Aleena a taste of
her own medicine!” To be honest, Silas was really pleased by what he said because he knew his
girlfriend was indeed a brainy one. However, did that fact have anything to do with them? Once again,
he shot them a baleful stare and criticized, “If she hadn’t been smart enough, she would have been
drugged.” “Fine, I admit it’s our fault for failing to take care of her properly,” Alex conceded. Still looking
sullen, Silas asked, “Where did Aleena get that glass of wine?” Knitting his brows together, Hayden
wondered, “Now that you mention it, it was rather odd. She took it from one of the waiters so no one
would have thought it could be drugged!” Alex, who was stroking his chin in puzzlement, commented,
“Don’t you think Gianna is even odder? She had been with us the whole time and she didn’t go
anywhere after sitting down at the table. How did she find out that the wine was drugged?” “You’re the
odd one!” Silas shot him another glare. Alex chuckled, “I’m serious. If you were in her shoes, would you
have been able to tell whether that glass of wine was drugged or not? I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to do
that, let alone come up with a plan to get back at Aleena so quickly!” Feeling proud of Gianna because
of Alex’s comment, Silas spoke airily, “I’m going to the control room.” He was curious to know how
Gianna did it
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlex quickly followed after him. “I’m going with you.” Hayden too followed suit because he was keen to
know how Gianna managed to realize the problem. When the three of them reached the control room,
Silas instructed one of the security officers to play the CCTV footage of when they were drinking at the
table. Soon, the footage reached the part where Aleena was taking the glasses of wine from the waiter.
Silas narrowed his eyes to examine the waiter. Could he have colluded with Aleena? “Wait a minute.
Let’s see where the waiter got the drinks from.” The security officer first glanced at Silas before
rewinding slowly. In the footage, the waiter was shown to be walking out of the kitchen with a tray of
drinks and then walking into the kitchen after serving them. Meanwhile, the footage of when he stood
by the table to serve them the drinks was not shown. Upon closer look, the security officer found that
there was something wrong with the time stamps.
