Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 428

"Mr. Hansen was poisoned too?"

"Yes, I treated him myself. That's why I'm so certain." Looking at Vic, Yolanda extended her right hand to him. "Let me check you as well."

Vic complied and let her take his pulse.

"There's no toxin inside of you. You can rest easy." Yolanda examined Vic too. She found nothing wrong with his body.

"This goes deeper than I thought..." Vic fell silent for a moment before saying, "Thank you, Ms. Henderson. I'll get to the bottom of this. And I'll speak with Mr. Hansen soon."

He and Nigel represented two generations of power in Riverdale. If something happened to both of them, who would benefit from this?

His eyes darkened as he considered the implications. This was clearly premeditated poisoning. Something must have gone wrong for the poison to end up in Beatrice's food instead.

"Riverdale's about to get interesting again. But don't worry, Ms. Henderson. I won't mention your involvement in my investigation!" Vic assured her. "You won't face any blowback from this."

Yolanda nodded, then remembered something. She said, "Mr. Seinfeld, there's one more thing..."

. . .

An hour later, Vic's security detail drove Yolanda back to the Henderson mansion.

"Even Skylar has been trying to help while you're out fooling around. What an ungrateful piece of trash!" Joe was furious since Harold's family had spent hours stoking his anger.

"A stranger shows more loyalty than you!"

"Uncle Joe, don't worry. Skylar and I will figure something out. Aunt Diana might be released tomorrow." Paul was confident. "Right, Skylar?"

"Mm..." Skylar responded absently.

In truth, she was helpless. There was no way she could talk to Vic. And when she had called her parents for help, they had scolded her and warned her to stay out of it. But with Paul and Joe counting on her, she was caught between a rock and a hard place.
