Chapter 839

“What’s happening? Why would they have seizures all of a sudden? They were all fine before they went
out.”

The moment Jonathan got back, he saw the three children lying down neatly in the nursery. He was
hopping mad!

Kira was so frightened that she got down on her knees.

“Granduncle, I’m sorry. This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have taken them out for dessert. The desserts
must have been too cooling for the children, but I didn’t know they couldn’t take it. I’m so sorry.”

Tears were flowing down her face as she apologized. She even started to kowtow to Jonathan as a
gesture of her remorse.

Before Jonathan could respond, Sasha, who was attending to the children, stood up.



“It has nothing to do with cooling desserts. Old Mr. Jadeson, I think you should arrest the boss of the
dessert shop. These children have been poisoned.”

“Poisoned?”



Everyone froze.

As for Jonathan, his face looked thunderous!

“Say again! How?”



“The dessert they consumed was made with tapioca flour and sea buckthorn. There is nothing wrong
with the combination of these two ingredients. However, he added lychees afterward. The combination of
the three ingredients can cause a sudden high fever in children and subsequently, seizures.”

Sasha proceeded to share her findings.

At the same time, she had brought back the ingredients from the dessert shop in order to convince the
old man.

When Jonathan saw that, a fierce, murderous aura shot out from his eyes!

Kira was paralyzed with fear.

Poisoned?

That can’t be true. Aunt Jasmine had said nothing of that sort.

All she wanted me to do was to bring the children to that street and have them tainted with bad luck. How
in the world did it become a case of poisoning?

Kira was petrified. “No, it’s not like that. Granduncle, I-I don’t know anything about this. I really don’t…”

“We will know soon. By the way, Old Mr. Jadeson, if the owner of the dessert shop denies it, you can do
a check on the desserts that he has done in the past. Ms. Woods has mentioned that this was his
signature dessert.”

“You-”

Right there and then, Kira could no longer refute anymore, and her face had turned pale.

Since it was a signature dessert, then it must have been served before.



However, none of the other children had encountered such a reaction after consuming the desserts. If
they had, the business of that shop would not be thriving.

Why then has it happened this time around?

There can only be one explanation. Either Kira or the pastry chef is lying.

Jonathan immediately sent his men out.

More than ten minutes later, his bodyguards informed him that the dessert shop was already closed, and
the pastry chef had taken his own life.

Taken his own life?

Darkness fell on Kira.

All the while, Sasha stood at the side and saw that evil woman being dragged away. She stayed in the
nursery to tend to the children. In a basin of hot water, she dissolved some powder.

After wetting a towel with the solution, she wiped the bodies of the three children with the towel. Their
eyes opened up instantly, and they were back to normal.

“Mommy, how did it go? Did the evil witch show her true color?”

“That’s right, Mommy. I thought I saw her being executed.”

Sasha was speechless.

I can’t believe they know about execution.

Sasha placed her daughter in her arms and said, “Yes, she has been executed. Just wait and see. The
person behind all of these will soon show themselves.”



Hearing that, Matteo’s eyes brightened up!

“Mommy, so you knew she has a backer.”

“Of course! Do you really think Mommy is a fool?”

“Eh…”

When the three kiddos saw their mommy’s face changed, they laughed out awkwardly.

In truth, Sasha did know that there was a mastermind behind Kira. After she got back, she contacted
Sabrina. Initially, Sabrina was unwilling to share certain information with her. After finding out what had
taken place that day, Sabrina finally told Sasha everything that Kira had done to her at Oceanic Estate.

After their conversation, Sasha was very certain that the culprit was none other than Kira’s aunt,
Jasmine.

True enough, the very next day, Jasmine was taken away by Jonathan’s men. Stephen failed to stop
them. Just then, both Devin and Sebastian came back together.

“What did you say? She instructed somebody to poison the children? How can that be?”

Devin could not believe his ears.

Jonathan was unable to restrain his anger. In front of everyone, he blurted, “Why is it not possible? Your
mom is a horrible person, and she is capable of such deeds just to secure your position in this family.
That’s very predictable of her.”

Devin’s face instantly turned pale.

Everything happened so fast that even Sebastian could not put a stop to it.



“Devin…”

“Fine. I understand. So all this while, Mom and I mean nothing in your eyes. We are never good enough
for you. I get that now.”

A melancholy smile appeared on his face.

After so many years, that was the first time such a heartbroken look appear on Devin’s face. His usually
kind and gentle eyes were filled with ridicule and self-deprecation.

All that was left was a feeling of deep sorrow and ultimate disappointment.

Sebastian’s face fell and reached out to grab his arm.

Devin shirked at his touch like a plague.

Then, he turned around and left.
