Chapter 78 Michelle Confronts Dem
“After thinking about it, I believe the locals have built up their immune systems to these mushrooms, wild vegetables, and fruits after consuming them for so long.
“Even if some are poisonous, they wouldn’t feel ill because their bodies are used to them. This was definitely our program crew’s oversight. I’m truly sorry.” Matt said apologetically.
Upon hearing this, the Pitt family members exchanged glances.
Ana, her eyes swollen and reddened from crying, miffled as she sobbed, “It’s all my fault. I should’ve asked Demi to help check the mushrooms. If I did so, Thomas wouldn’t have been
Her sobs made the Pitt family members frown, particularly Michelle, who was fueled with anger.
Michelle, who had been following the live stream on weekends, couldn’t hold back her anger when she heard Ana cry.
“How could Demi be so cold–hearted? Thomas is her brother! How could she be so cruel? Won’t she feel guilty if something terrible happens to Thomas?” Michelle roared
“Enough!” Stephen snapped with a low voler, his face darkening with anger.
Their once–peaceful family had descended into chaos. First, Demi was trapped in a burning ear, and now, Thomas had been poisoned. All these devastating events stemmed from family

He had watched bits and pieces of the live st growing up with hardship.

After hearing this, the Pitt family, Matt, and the crew members all sighed in relief.
Matt asked, “Doctor, was this caused by eating poisonous mushrooms and wild vegetables?“”
He needed to know what exactly went wrong!
“Yes. But fortunately, the food Thomas had was mildly toxic,” the doctor replied.
“Then why can the locals eat them?” Matt pressed. Although he had made his own assumptions earlier, he wanted to hear it from the experts.
The doctor explained. “Because the toxins are mild, people who eat them regularly or have strong immune systems can consume them without any issues. The locals probably war quite often, and their bodies have developed resistance over time, so they don’t get sick.”
It was just as Matt suspected
De stayed up late, waiting for the William family. She sat propped up in bed, reading a seventh–grade math book
Suddenly, Demi heard a loud pounding at the door. She frowned slightly, as she could tell it was the must family, specifically Michelle and Harold
The pounding sound continued.
Demi’s gaze turned cold. To avoid disturbing others, she quickly got up and opened the gare.
“Demi, I have something to ask you!” Michelle said loudly and was about to step into the courtyard.
Demi’s expression fed cold as she stepped forward, blocked Michelle’s v and closed the door behind her.
Michelle was taken aback by her actions.
“What do you want?” Derri asked coldly
