Chapter 972 Found Out The Poisoner (1/2)

It wasn't the first time Darren had done something like that. Michelle couldn't think of anyone besides him who could be behind all that had happened. The setting of the fire to the house, poisoning Jacob in the ward—everything reeked of him.

Moreover, it wasn't just a wild guess. She had other reasons to suspect him. It was Darren who had deceived her, almost making her kill her own sister. She didn't trust him at all after all that he had done.

David felt miserable when Michelle announced it was Darren, his brother, who was the evil backstage manipulator of this shit show. With some difficulty, all the affection he felt for him disappeared. Hatred spread in his heart wildly.

He had still not taken revenge on him for abducting his wife and attempting to murder his son. And now, his best buddy had fallen prey to his brother as well. It was high time. He had to avenge his loved ones, even if it meant going against his own blood.

”Is there still no information about my sister?” Michelle asked in a low tone after several seconds of silence.

She had put all her energy on Jacob and his daughter these past days. Whatever she had heard about her sister was from David's accidental mentioning. But since so many days had passed, she thought they'd have gotten some information about her whereabouts.

David lowered his eyes and shook his head. ”Darren has hidden them. We haven't been able to find any traces so far...”

That was the truth. He himself had already looked into all the places Darren could show up at, and even those he never visited. There was no trace of Rita. It was as if she'd disappeared into thin air. He understood Michelle's pain, but really had no base to console her.

”I will find my sister,” she said. 'And take good care of Jacob, ' she thought, worried sick about his condition. She had never anticipated that she and the people she loved would fall into such a mess.

She remained quiet as she turned her eyes to Jacob. In a comatose stage, he lay still on the bed, still in the ICU.

David eyed her sadly, unable to imagine what she might be going through. Breaking his chain of thoughts, his phone rang.
