Chapter 88
I was shocked. Then, my heart skipped a beat. Something had happened to Benedict
“What happened?” Alex was also shocked.
minn reacted first and dashed upstairs. I caught up with him in a panic. From afar, we could hear Benedict wailing.
We rushed into the roorn and saw Benedict lying on the bed. His originally perfect face was covered in rashes.
Maybe it was too itchy. He waved his little hands and scratched his face uncontrollably. In the blink of an eye, his skin was scratched and blood dripped
The nurse was standing in from of the cribs. Her face was pale as she said with a trembling voice, “He was fine before he went to bed. I don’t know why he suddenly became like this?
“Benedict!” I shouted. I was heartbroken as I rushed forward. I wanted to carry him to the hospital.
“Den’t move“” Quinn stopped me. He frowned and observed Benedict’s face. He said in a low voice. “It’s a genetic pollen allergy. There should be an anti–allergy ointment at house. Hurry up and find it!”
When Drake heard this, he immediately reacted and rushed downstairs.
Listening to Benedict – painful cries, I was beartbroken.
looked up and asked Quinn nervously. “Are you sure it’s a pollen allergy?”
He wasn’t a doctor. How could he know it without even testing him?
Joseph told the softly. “Natalia, you might not know this. The Madden family has an inherited pollen allergy. Quinnand and I had similar
experiences when we were young. Therefore, we always prepare an anti–allergy ointment. However, they have always been very careful Why would pollen suddenly appear in our house!”
Soon Drake brought over the ointment. Quinn took it and personally applied it to Benedict.
I was burning with anxiety. I wondered if it would work
Fortunately, the ointment took effect faster than I expected. After a while, Benedict stopped scratching and crying.
“It’s indeed a pollen allergy. Joseph said. He turned to me and said, “It stopped itching now, but the rashes on his face will only disappear after
abou: duce hours.”
“Alright, I see.” I nodded, feeling a lingering fear.
I only felt at ease after accompanying Benedict and personally hushed him to sleep.
Quinn did not look good. He looked at Alex, who looked even more gloomy.
Alex said, “Ask everyone present tonight to go to the living room!”
Benedict fell asleep. I put him back in the crib
When I came to the living room. Alex was asking Drake to strictly search the rooms of the domestic servants.
The servants stood together and looked at each other. Everyone was nervous
It was obvious that Benedict’s allergy was very
y strange. It seemed like someone did it on purpose.
with a frown.
I was furious. I really wanted to know who wanted to harm him. I sat on the sofa and quietly watched them w
“Mr. Madden, we have searched. We didn’t find anything related to pollen Drake came to report.
frowned and fell into deep thought
Tina muttered, “Did some plants containing pollen grow in the garden?”
“That’s impossible. Ever since I was young, it has strictly prohibited planting plants containing pollen. Every landscaper knows this very well,” Joseph said firmly.
Drake also echoed, “That’s right. I’ve served Mr. Madden for decades. I’ve already memorized this matter. I’m very sure that there won’t be such plants in the old mansion”

Time frowned and said, “That’s strange. But if someone did it on purpose, what motive does that person have Could it be that the one has a grudge
Tina’s words completely enlightened me.
Tautionsciously looked at Georgia. She was the only one who had a grudge against me in the Madden family.
The next second, Georgia’s eyes met mine and she instantly asked irritably. “Why are you looking at me? Are you suspecting me?
it weren’t you, why would you be so nervous?” I asked her coldly.
ould bribe Owen to harm
Georgia frowned and opened her mouth, wanting to defend herself, Linterrupted her and continued, “Hack then, you could i the. Now, vou also could do something to harm Benedict.”
“Natalia, its true that I don’t like you, but I don’t have to harm a child!” Georgia argued.
I was hunous. All the old and new grudges instantly surged into my heart. I said, “You’ve never had a child and can’t empathize with a mother. This
also the reason why you can harm a child!”
Georgia panicked at my words and could only say, “Natalia, stop slandering me!”
“Georgia, did you really do it? Tina widened her eyes in shock.
Georgia glared at her and sad hysterically. I told you, it wasn’t me!”
Joseph had a complicated look. He looked at Alex and suggested, “We can’t conclude without evidence. I believe Georgia won’t harm Benedict. How about letting Drake search Georgia’s personal belongings?”
Alex looked deeply at Georgia and said in a deep voice, “That’s the only way.”
He gave Drake a look. Drake was about to approach Georgia when Quinn suddenly reached out and stopped him.
Everyone was stunned. 1 looked at Quinn in confusion.
His face had been gloomy from the beginning to the end, and his gaze was very cold.
Quinn looked at Alex and asked in a calm and dangerous voice.“Grandpa, if the mastermind is found, I wonder how you will deal with that person?”
Georgia was his biological daughter. After what she had done to me in the past, Alex did not punish her too severely.
If she really hurt Benedict, what would Alex do!
As if he did not expect Quinn to ask first, Alex’s frown deepened.
After a while, he snorted coldly. “Our Madden family can’t tolerate such a vicious pi
Tina was shocked and asked, “Alex, you mean you want to chase the person out?”
person.
As soon as she finished speaking, Georgia shouted in frustration, “Are you guys done? I already said it wasn’t me! You want to search my belongings. right? Go ahead:”
Georgia picked up her handbag, unzipped it, and poured the contents all over the floor.
She reared, “Didn’t you want to search? Hurry up! If you can’t find anything, all of you have to apologize to me!”
Georgia’s sudden reaction stunned me. I thought that since she dared to make such a big fuss, it meant that nothing strange could be found in her bag.
However, I didn’t expect Drake, who was squatting on the ground to check, to suddenly find a sealed plastic bag.
He said, “Mr. Madden, there’s a lily in it”
