The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss

Chapter 2626 Accidental Death

Jade was silent for a moment. Then, she pursed her lips.

“I don’t care what method you use. You must get your parents to see Selena. Otherwise, I will make your parents drink this bottle of potassium cyanide.”

Jennifer raised her head abruptly. Her face was extremely pale.

“Okay.”

She spoke in a low voice.

The uneasiness and fear in her eyes could not be concealed.

......

A few days later, the opportunity came.

Eric specially brought Selena to attend a charity auction to relax her mind.

Moreover, he also bought a lot of jewelry and antiques. Soon, he became the focus of the crowd.

After the auction, there was a charity dinner.

Jennifer’s parents managed to get an invitation through various channels.

Jade was already in the center of the venue. She wanted to watch this good show, but Jennifer’s parents came late, and the crowd dispersed when they arrived.

Jade was furious.

If they missed this opportunity, how long would they have to wait for the next opportunity?

The Stanton family would definitely deal with the shares as soon as possible.

Thus, Jade had to get rid of Selena before the Stantons allocated the shares.

That way, no one else would compete with Jade.

Soon, Jennifer’s mother panicked and hid in a secluded place.

She held that bottle of familiar medicine and was about to pour it into the wine as soon as I opened it.

Coincidentally, a drunk man came out of nowhere and knocked her over.

Jennifer’s mother screamed in pain, which quickly attracted the attention of others.

The bottle of medicine rolled into a corner where no one noticed.

They were so close.

Jade watched the scene indifferently.

The Nelsons truly were a family of failures.

Jennifer’s father also turned pale with fright and trembled all over. He went over, grabbed his wife’s hand, and shouted for help in a panic. He asked someone to call for an ambulance.

There was a doctor at the venue, and under everyone’s watchful eyes, the Nelsons were put on a stretcher and sent away.

Jade’s face turned red with anger.

After the crowd dispersed, Jade walked to that corner by herself and held the bottle of medicine in her hand while no one was paying attention.

She took the opportunity to put the medicine in the red wine, which quickly dispersed into the rich liquid.

After doing all this, Jade found that her palms were sweating.

She was sweaty and nervous when the time came for her to kill someone.

Jade swirled the glass of wine, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down.

She held the glass of wine and walked toward Selena.

The passing waiter was also carrying a few glasses of wine. She paused, took one of the glasses down, and put the drugged wine on the tray.

“Go and deliver this wine to Mrs. Ferguson. I’m going to toast her.”

The waiter paused and followed her without asking any further questions.

Jade felt relieved.

As long as she did not deliver the wine on her own, it would have nothing to do with her even if Selena died before her eyes.

Jade thought about it and walked over with a smile.

Selena did not know who Jade was, but she knew Selena.

Long before the plan started, Jade already knew Selena well.

Eric was not by Selena’s side, and Selena was surrounded by a group of ladies chatting away.

Jade walked over and put on her usual facade.

“Mrs. Ferguson, it’s an honor to meet you for the first time…”

Jade raised her glass to drink with Selena.

“I came here especially to say hello to you. My husband and Mr. Ferguson are cooperating in many projects.”

Jade introduced herself vaguely.

She looked like the other rich housewives who wanted to curry favor with Selena.

There were many insignificant people like Jade at this banquet, so Jade was sure that Selena would not ask who she was in detail.

Sure enough, Selena just smiled politely and nodded.

“Hello.”

Jade raised her wine glass as a signal.

Selena did not move.

The person next to her could not help but laugh.

“You’re asking Mrs. Ferguson to drink, but you filled your glass with pomegranate juice? You’re bullying her, huh?”

Jade was slightly taken aback.

Only then did she realize that the glass she was holding was diamond-shaped, while the other wine glasses were common.

Jade guessed that the red wine and the pomegranate juice of the same color were segregated by the type of glass.

She was secretly annoyed at herself for being careless because she had focused all her attention on the Nelson family.

Jade quickly took a new glass from the waiter and put another glass in front of Selena.

“I made a mistake. Please don’t blame me, Mrs. Ferguson. Here’s a toast to you.”

Jade was sure that she put the poisonous wine on the outside of the tray, so she took the cup inside.

Selena accepted it with a smile and drank the wine in front of everyone.

Jade looked shocked and immediately drank the wine in front of her.

As soon as Jade swallowed it, she felt that something was wrong.

For a moment, there was a burning sensation in her stomach.

The cup in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Suddenly, Jade heard a shocked scream.

Everyone immediately gathered around.

Jade only felt that she was in so much pain that even her breathing hurt. Her internal organs felt like it was exploding. The boundless pain overwhelmed all her rationality.

She curled up on the cold floor, trembling and shivering uncontrollably.

The pain got worse.

Jade’s dreary eyes saw that Selena was screaming for help in shock. Selena was perfectly fine.

That glass of wine...

No, Selena drank the non-poisonous wine!

How so?

Her consciousness gradually caved.

Jade could smell the blood flowing out from her nose.

Gradually, her eyes dimmed, and she lost consciousness.

......

Everyone was terrified and backed up.

The security guards quickly came to surround and protect the scene.

The police also got the news and rushed over.

The ambulance came first, but it was too late.

When the ambulance arrived, Jade had no pulse and had become stiff.

Eric was socializing in other places and rushed over when he heard the commotion. He saw Selena sitting there. Her face was pale from fright.

He hurried over and hugged her, covering her eyes.

The person next to him reacted and immediately began to explain.

“Mr. Ferguson, I don’t know whether this woman wants to hurt Mrs. Ferguson or commit suicide. She drank the wine herself and even handed over a glass to Mrs. Ferguson. This is terrifying! You should go to the hospital to have a look.”

“Yeah, how could this happen?”

......

Eric’s face tensed, and he did not speak.

The event organizer dispersed the crowd.

As a close contact, Selena stayed behind to be questioned by the police.

Selena was startled, so her complexion was poor.

After all, someone died before her eyes.

The police were also considerate and asked Eric to accompany Selena.

The event organizer had already obtained the surveillance footage. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

The weird thing was that they saw Jade pouring the medicine into the glass from an angle. She also shook the glass for fear that others would find out.

Then, Jade put the drugged wine on the waiter’s tray.

Jade went to Selena at the first opportunity, but why did Jade die?
