Before nightfall, Reginald delivered the medicine Sean used to take.
"Dr. Fordham, Mr. Sean used to take these medications."
Olivia checked the ingredients. They were common antipsychotics. There wasn't anything off about them.
She nodded. "Thanks, Reginald."
"Don't mention it, Dr. Fordham. If you need anything, just tell me. As long as you can cure Mr. Sean, the Fordhams will be greatly indebted to you."
"I'll do my best."
After Reginald left, Olivia waved, gesturing for two people in the distance to come over.
Vance and Vanta were bodyguards Ethan had assigned to her.
With just one gesture from her, the two obediently went up to her.
"Dr. Fordham."
Olivia handed the medicine to Vance. "Take this and get someone to conduct a chemical analysis on the ingredients."
"Understood."
When all that was done, Olivia finally walked into Troy's temporary studio.
It was as bright as day in the room.
Models, drafts, palettes, sewing supplies, scissors, and various other stuff littered the room.
A man and a little girl were crouching on the ground.
Holding the embroidery sample he had just completed, Troy asked, "What about this? Is this nicer?"
Various samples were lying around them. By the looks of it, they had been quite busy that afternoon.
Olivia looked at Troy's earnest expression.
She had read in the files that as soon as he started working, he would be so absorbed in it that he forgot about himself.
He only had eyes for design, and by the looks of it, the rumors were true.
He didn't even notice that she had entered the room.
For some reason, a thought occurred to Olivia.
Why did Avery, Sean, and even Quinn endure varying degrees of injury or death, but Troy was completely fine?
In just an instant, Olivia dismissed that idea. She wondered why she would have such evil thoughts.
Based on the information she read and how the siblings behaved around each other, the siblings seemed quite close to each other.
Why would Jacqueline do that?
Olivia shook her head as she put on a self-mocking smile.
That night, the results of the analysis were out.
Vance replied respectfully, "Dr. Fordham, after a professional analysis, we found that the medicine only contained normal ingredients. There aren't any traces of poison in it."
The medicine was fine, so how exactly did Sean get poisoned?
It was a slow-acting poison, so it had to be hiding in items that he would be in contact with every day.
Those things could either be objects or food.
If the chef were to poison Sean's food every day, how bold would they have to be to achieve that?
It wasn't quite possible.
Olivia couldn't figure anything out for now, so she could only send someone to sneak into the kitchen to investigate.
