Chapter 517 The Blood Test Results

"Got it, Madam. I’ll go pick up Alpha now." "Go ahead." Natalie nodded. Soon after Shauna left, Baron walked out. Seeing the blood test report in his hand, Natalie instantly stood up. "There really is a problem with my mother’s blood test report?" Baron nodded gravely. "This blood test report shows components of chronic poison, initially estimated to have been present for at least fifteen years. So, Mom’s guess is true: Rachel really did target Mom. The recurrence of Mom’s illness over the years was likely manipulated by Rachel." Baron took out another blood test report and said, "I refined this blood test report and found that the components in Mom’s blood had mutated, which is why I didn’t detect a problem during the last checkup. Otherwise, the chronic poisoning in Mom’s body might have been detected then." "It has nothing to do with you. No one would have suspected that Rachel was the biggest danger by my mother’s side. Can my mother's body still be healed now?" This was what Natalie cared about most. The event had already happened. Complaining or getting angry would be useless. The most important thing was how to resolve the issue. Baron nodded. "It can be treated, but it will take a long time, and she will need to strictly control her diet." "As long as it can be treated, nothing is better than a person being alive."Baron greatly admired Natalie’s mentality and positive attitude. "I thought you would be upset for a while." "Of course I’m upset. After all, she is my biological mother and has been very good to me, but sadness won't solve the problem. When a problem arises, you solve it—that’s the way to deal with things, isn’t it? Is there another way?" Baron looked at Natalie’s questioning eyes and suddenly curled his lips. "No, whatever my wife says is right!" Natalie’s face flushed slightly at his sudden compliment. "Oh, right, Shauna came by earlier and said Alpha was being targeted because Jensen is missing." Natalie recounted what happened. Baron frowned slightly. "Alpha’s skills mean ordinary people wouldn’t be able to capture him on camera. Furthermore, his face is common, and people who meet him generally don't remember him. How could someone like that be caught on surveillance? You arranged for him to stay here?" "Yes, Shauna went to pick him up." Natalie nodded. Baron said quietly, "To be cautious, have Alpha stay outside first. My people will protect him. Since they aren't our immediate family, don't let outsiders into this house. After all, we don’t know who else around us might be an unseen enemy." Hearing Baron say this, Natalie nodded. He's right. Rachel had been with Ruby for over twenty years and was the one who pulled Ruby back from the brink of death. Who would have thought she would be administering chronic poison to Ruby?"I’ll follow your advice." This was Natalie’s best trait. Regardless of the situation, as long as the argument was rational, well-supported, and capable, she wouldn't insist on her own opinion. After they talked for a while, the sound of a car engine suddenly roared outside. Baron narrowed his eyes slightly and said quietly, "I don’t know who’s here now. You stay inside the house; I’ll go take a look." Natalie was somewhat worried but didn’t try to stop him. Sometimes, a man needs affirmation. She said quietly, "Be careful. If anything feels wrong, come back immediately." "I know. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine." Baron kissed Natalie on the forehead, then got up and headed outside. Natalie, still uneasy, went to the floor-to-ceiling window and saw a black SUV parked outside the electronic gate. She felt like she recognized it. When Baron came out, the security guard quickly said, "Mr. Baron, there’s a car outside. They can’t give us the password. What should we do? Should we tell them to leave?" Baron suddenly thought of Flynn. "Open the gate. I’ll go take a look." "Yes, Mr. Baron." The security guard opened the electronic gate. Baron looked at the familiar SUV outside and felt somewhat amused. "Remember this license plate number. In the future, this car doesn't need a password or check to enter or exit. The people inside are my father-in-law and my elder brother-in-law." Baron gave the security guard a look and quickly walked over. "You brought Dad back?" Waylon immediately leaned his head out of the window. "Are Natalie and your mother alright?" "My mother has gone to her room to rest. Natalie is in the living room. Yvonne’s injuries are a bit severe, so she also went back to her room to rest." Baron said this while moving aside to clear the way. Flynn drove the car in. Waylon immediately got out of the car and walked inside side-by-side with Baron.
