The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 2049 The Culprit
They had to wait for Grant to wake up to find out the truth.
However, overwhelmed with resentment and grief, Roxanne was inconsolable.
While waiting for Grant to wake up, Roxanne noticed her mother's blissful smile in her parents' wedding photo, which was hanging on the wall in Grant's room. Instantly, tears started streaming down her face.
Just then, Lucian entered the room with some food for his wife. While she ate, he gently wiped her tears away with a piece of tissue.
Roxanne did not eat much due to a lack of appetite. When she was done, Lucian passed her a glass of water without insisting that she finish her food.
Fixing her gaze on Grant's face, Roxanne could not help but curse her father silently in her heart. If my mom was indeed poisoned to death by that homewrecker, you would be no different from a murdererlAfter all, you were the one who brought her back. You will have to pay for my mother's death!
A while later, the police arrived. They checked the surveillance recordings, took the statements of two housekeepers, and drew a blood sample from Grant to test in the laboratory.
They left after promising Lucian and Roxanne that, once the laboratory results were out, they would arrest Winnie at once.
At around eight in the evening, Roxanne performed another round of
acupuncture on Grant. The medicine which was given to the man orally was also starting to take effect. Finally, he woke up after the poison in his body was neutralized.
After opening his eyes, Grant stared blankly at the ceiling without movingor talking.
The housekeepers quickly ran to the living room to inform Roxanne and Lucian that Grant had regained consciousness.
Roxanne dashed into the room at once. Standing next to her father's bed, she asked anxiously, "Tell me, how did my mom die? Did Winnie poison her? That was what happened, right?"
Roxanne was feeling extremely emotional. However, Grant did not respond and remained motionless. His expression was blank, and his eyes were empty.
Lucian had entered the room as well. When he noticed the nonresponsive state of his father-in-law, he walked over to him coldly and swung a punch directly at his face.
If he had not stopped himself at the last minute, the force of the punch would be enough to shatter Grant's nose bridge.
However, as Lucian's intention was just to test if Grant was putting on an act, he held back his fist right before it landed on the man's face.
Indeed, Grant blinked and quickly returned to his senses.
"Tell me the truth! Please tell me the truth!" Roxanne could no longer contain her fury and started yelling while grabbing her father's collar.
The next moment, a sorrowful expression appeared on Grant's face, and his eyes reddened.

"Yes, it's definitely Winnie's doing. A few days ago, I found your mother's medical records while looking m through her belongings. It was stated in there that excessive heavy metals were found in her body. I consulted a doctor and was told that it was a sign of poisoning. I... I did not expect Winnie to be so vicious!"

Taking a pause, he continued, "So, I called Winnie and lied to her that I had found the item your mother had left behind and told her to come over to get it. When she arrived, I asked her if she had poisoned your mother. She tried to deny it at first, but after I
questioned her repeatedly and threatened to call the police, she finally admitted it out of fear and
begged me to let her off. I was so mad and wanted her to tell me exactly what she did so that I could record her confession on my phone.
Out of fury, she hit me..." Grant fell back into a daze as his voice trailed off. The content is on

Despite being mentally prepared, Roxanne still felt that she was about to burst
from rage when she heard the truth.
Just then, Lucian narrowed his eyes and asked, "Was it also Winnie who
poisoned you?"
Upon hearing that, Grant burst into tears.

"Sorry! I'm so sorry! I've let your mom
down. I was the one who caused her death! I took the poison myself. I wanted to die! Someone like me doesn't deserve to continue living..."
