Chapter 350 Force Margaret to Drink It!
Mary, with Margaret's help, sat up, her face a bit pale, and took the cup from Margaret's hand.
"Mary, this is all for your pregnancy. Drink it slowly," Margaret said with a cheerful smile, sitting beside Mary. Her kind and gentle demeanor really warmed Mary's heart.
Mary smiled slightly, took the cup, and tilted her delicate neck to drink a few sips.
Margaret watched as Mary drank half the cup, feeling very sad. However, at this point, she had no way out.
After drinking, Mary lay down to rest.
Uneasy, Margaret asked, "Mary, how's your stomach? Does it hurt?"
Mary shook her head and weakly murmured, "It's okay."
Upon hearing this, Margaret started to worry. She thought, 'Is the medicine not working? Or has the effect not kicked in yet?'
At that moment, William returned. Instantly grasping the situation, he frowned, hurried over, and seized the cup Margaret was attempting to clean up right out of her hand.
Margaret was startled by his sudden action. When she saw it was William, she panicked.
"Oh, William, you're back?" Margaret said with a forced smile, feeling like a thief caught in the act.
When she saw William staring at the cup for a few moments, she felt even more uneasy, her legs trembling.
"You guys chat. I'll go out with your dad," Margaret said.
This place was not safe to stay in, so she quickly pulled Tyler, trying to take the cup from William's hand.
However, William questioned angrily, "What did you give Mary to drink?"
He stared at Margaret, his hand gripping the cup with veins bulging.
'Damn it, how dare you!' William thought angrily.
"It's just a tonic for the pregnancy. Give it to me,"
Margaret said, trying to stay calm and reaching out to take it.
"A tonic for the pregnancy?" William repeated.
Furious, he shouted, "Margaret, do you think I'm an idiot? Do you really think I don't know what you've been up to?"
He smashed the cup on the ground, the liquid splashing everywhere, scaring Margaret.
Margaret was also furious, glaring at William and shouting, "William, what's wrong with you? Oh, you're angry and taking it out on me, right? How dare you? I'm your mother-in-law!"
William directly slapped Margaret's face, angrily saying, "Margaret! Do you know the consequences of what you just did? Do I have to expose you before you admit your mistake?"
Margaret covered her face, both angry and scared.
William hit her again!
Damn it!
How dared he?
She was his mother-in-law!
And it was in front of Tyler and Mary!
Tyler and Mary watched in a daze, especially Tyler, who felt anger rising in his heart at William's seemingly unprovoked rage.
"William! What are you doing? Can't you talk it out? Why are you hitting her?" Tyler shouted angrily.
William turned, glaring angrily at Tyler and warning, "Tyler! Didn't I warn you a long time ago to keep your wife in check? If she dares to harm Mary again, I will make you both regret it!"
"William, what happened? Why are you so angry?" Mary asked.
She also noticed something was wrong. William wouldn't get angry like this for no reason.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the tonic?
But it was given to her by Margaret.
Margaret, covering her face, simply sat on the ground, throwing a tantrum and crying loudly. She wailed, "Oh no, the son-in-law hit the mother-in-law. How can I live now?"
It was a familiar scene.
But today was different.
William glared angrily at Margaret, who was wailing on the ground. He took out three small plastic bags of white powder from his pocket and threw them hard at her face.
"Margaret, this is what you tried so hard to make me and Mary drink. Do you really think I'm fool?" William shouted angrily, his eyes burning with rage. "This stuff was swapped out the moment you left Cloud Peak Manor!"
If it weren't for Benjamin, William would have been kept in the dark.
Margaret looked at the three bags of powder on the ground, shocked. She looked up at William in disbelief and accused, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have no idea what you're talking about!"
How could this be?
Margaret felt her breath catch. In an instant, she realized that William had seen through all the little schemes she'd employed over the years.
She felt the urge to die from embarrassment and shame.
Tyler immediately picked up the stuff and asked, "What is this? What do you mean by swapped out?"
"Poison!" William gritted his teeth and coldly shouted, his eyes flashing with murderous intent!
In that instant, the tension in the ward became palpable, as though the very air had turned to ice.
Tyler glared at Margaret, full of uncontrollable anger!
He had a bad temper, but he had always held it in at home. But today, he was furious. He went up and slapped Margaret angrily, then kicked her hard!
He scolded, "Margaret! Do you have any humanity? How could you do something so awful? Mary is your daughter, and William is your son-in-law!"
Shaking with anger, he collapsed onto the sofa, holding his head, feeling a headache.
Mary couldn't believe Margaret would do such a thing, her eyes filled with tears, looking at the trembling Margaret on the ground, and asked, "Mom, how could you do this?"
Margaret, knowing she was exposed, immediately denied it, shouting, "You're talking nonsense! I didn't do it! William, you're framing me!"
She couldn't admit it. If she did, she was finished!
Everyone would turn against her!
However, William didn't let Margaret continue her antics. He directly called for someone to come in.
Two bodyguards in black suits instantly controlled Margaret.
Then, William picked up a bag of the powder from the ground, grabbed Margaret's jaw viciously, and said, "Since you don't admit it, then you eat it yourself!"
With that, he poured an entire bag of the powder into Margaret's mouth!
Margaret was scared to death, struggling desperately, but it was useless!
William picked up a nearby cup of water and poured it into Margaret's mouth, then covered her mouth tightly.
Margaret was forced to gulpe it down.
She knelt on the ground, coughing desperately, trying to gag herself.
But she couldn't throw it up.
She cried loudly in regret, kneeling on the ground and hugging William's leg, pleading, "William, William, I was wrong. I was wrong. Is there an antidote? I don't want to die. No!"
Tyler and Mary watched her silently.
Margaret admitted it.
William looked coldly at the kneeling Margaret and said coldly, "There isn't one. You should go to the gastroenterology department for a stomach pump. Maybe you'll survive."
Upon hearing this, Margaret immediately got up, stumbled out of the ward, and shouted, "Doctor, help! I need a stomach pump!"
Meanwhile, Tyler felt very ashamed. He stood up, tried to speak several times, and finally apologized to William and Mary with his head down, "William, Mary, I'm sorry."
"Dad, it's not your fault," Mary said, her eyes red.
She wiped her tears and looked at William, asking, "Did you really give my mom poison?"
William, now calm, shook his head and said, "No, it was just flour. I wanted to teach her a lesson so she would behave in the future."
Tyler, who hadn't left yet, felt relieved upon hearing this. He said a few words to William and then left the ward.
What happened at the hospital had naturally reached Jessica.
"Failed?" Jessica repeated, furious.
Standing in the large hall, she exuded a chilling aura.
Zoe stood beside her, head down, eyes flashing with malice, and said, "Madam, let me go. I'll do it myself."
Jessica turned and slapped her, scolding, "Do you think William is an idiot?"
Zoe didn't dare to speak.
"Contact the offshoots of the Jones family. Execute the plan immediately!" Jessica commanded coldly, looking out the window, her bright eyes filled with coldness.
A few days passed peacefully. During these days, William was constantly running between the company and the hospital.
To prevent a repeat of the previous incident, William arranged for many bodyguards at the hospital.
As for Margaret, she had been behaving herself since that night as she was constantly worried about when she would die.
And she was also afraid that Jessica would come after her.
She was on the verge of collapse!
But that day, an uninvited guest showed up in the ward.
Jeffery came specifically to visit Mary.
William had just walked into the ward with the chicken soup he had made when he saw Jeffery sitting by the bed, chatting and laughing with Mary.
"What are you doing here?" William snapped, his face dark, his tone cold.
Jeffery stood up, smiled, and said, "I came to see Mary. I heard BK Pharmaceuticals is in trouble. Do you need my help?"
William rolled his eyes.
"No need," he said indifferently, sitting down and serving a bowl of chicken soup to Mary.
Jeffery chuckled, a hidden coldness flashing in his eyes, and suddenly said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you; I just had someone pick up Sarah. She should be having a lot of fun right now."
