"What about the security camera footage?" Charlotte asked coldly.
"We're getting it right now. I'll send it over to your phone in a bit. Do you want me to come back now?" Morgan said.
"Wait till I finish viewing the footage."
"All right."
Charlotte received the security camera footage from Seacrest Restaurant moments after hanging up, and everything seemed just fine.
That was until she noticed Cynthia gently bump into the restaurant owner when he was bringing some tea to the kitchen.
The only thing Ellie did last night that her brothers didn't was she drank this tea!
With that in mind, Charlotte paused the footage and went over the scene frame by frame, but was unable to see anything odd about Cynthia's actions whatsoever. I don't know if the screen is too small or if she's simply too fast, but my gut instinct is telling me that there's something wrong with this woman!
Charlotte then called Morgan back immediately, "Have the restaurant owner bring us the teacups and teapot he served the tea with last night. Oh, and ask him if he remembers seeing Cynthia drop anything into the teacups!"
"Understood!" Morgan hung up the phone and went off to carry out her orders.
"Are you suspecting Cynthia, Ms. Lindberg? I knew there was something off about that woman! She looks all gentle and weak on the outside, but she's got a cunning look in her eyes!" Lupine asked. Charlotte's frown deepened. "I can't say for sure as we don't have any solid evidence yet, but she'll have hell to pay if I replace out that she's the one who poisoned Ellie!"
Lupine clenched her teeth in anger. "This b*tch better pray we don't replace any evidence against her!"
"That's enough. Have someone keep a tight lid on the news of this incident. We need to make sure that not a word of it gets out, so I'm putting you in charge of this. I'm going to meet up with Morgan at the Seacrest Restaurant now," Charlotte said while glancing at her watch.
"Roger!"
While Charlotte was busy investigating Ellie's poisoning, Cynthia managed to have Ellie puke up some poison along with some blood.
Ellie began crying in a hoarse voice moments later, but any and all signs of life from her came as music to everyone's ears.
"Oh, god... Ellie is awake! You're really amazing, Ms. Blackwood!" Raina exclaimed with tears in her eyes.
Cynthia let out a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off her forehead before slumping weakly to the floor.
"Ms. Blackwood!" A few of the medical staff quickly helped her to her feet, feeling nothing but respect and admiration for her accomplishment.
"What happened?" Zachary asked anxiously from outside.
"Ellie is awake! Things are starting to look better now! We'll proceed with the next step of the treatment right away! Rest assured that her condition is stabilized now!" Raina shed tears of joy as she delivered the news to them.
"Thank goodness..." Zachary breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, that's great... We should've had Cynthia come over sooner!" Spencer said excitedly.
"Yeah! I told you, Cynthia's medical skills are top-notch! We're all family here, so just feel free to consult her if anything happens!"
Taylor was ecstatic as he felt like they had successfully become a part of the Nacht family.
"Ms. Blackwood? Are you all right, Ms. Blackwood?" the medical staff asked as they helped a pale and exhausted Cynthia out of the ICU.
"What happened to her?" Spencer asked.
"She's probably exhausted after tending to Ms. Elisa for three hours straight while severely wounded," the medical staff replied.
"Hurry up and get her somewhere she can rest. Wouldn't want her to be the next to collapse now!"
Taylor stepped forward to hold Cynthia steady. "Yeah! Zachary and Ellie are still counting on you to complete their treatment, so you need to take good care of yourself! Isn't that right, Zachary?" Zachary nodded and flashed Cynthia a grateful smile as he said, "Yeah... Thank you, Cynthia. I'll repay you generously for this!"
