Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 665: A Family with Children, Poisoning Incident (5)_1

"Quiet." Glades Horne's expression turned serious, and his eyes sharpened as he spoke in a deep tone. "This is bad."

"Should we make the first move?" Hansen Ruiz looked eager to act.

His favorite thing was to strike at people, especially since Noah Reyes was a formidable opponent—it all made for an exhilarating fight.

RING, RING, RING... Suddenly, Hansen Ruiz's phone started ringing.

He casually took out his phone. He was used to it ringing nonstop every day; after all, he was the executive assistant.

When he saw it was Rachel Bailey calling, he immediately pressed the answer button and called out in the most gentle and mellifluous voice, "Rachel, are you missing me?"

"Hansen Ruiz, I'm at the Police Station." Rachel Bailey's tone was a bit frantic, as if something significant had happened. Hansen Ruiz rarely heard such panic in her voice.

"What are you doing at the Police Station? Looking for Benjamin Robinson? Aside from being slightly better-looking than me, what else does he have?" Hansen Ruiz's first reaction upon hearing his wife was at the Police Station was that Rachel Bailey had gone to see Benjamin Robinson. Okay, he was too suspicious. Rachel Bailey had nothing to do with Benjamin Robinson, but he hadn't forgotten that Rachel was initially interested in Benjamin.

"Hansen Ruiz, I've been brought to the Police Station for questioning." At this moment, Rachel Bailey was in no mood to bicker with her husband over his irrational jealousy; she was frightened by the sudden incident. Her mind was in turmoil, and more than anything, she wished for Hansen Ruiz to appear by her side immediately.

"What? Rachel, what happened?" Hansen Ruiz, who had been teasing initially, immediately dropped all pretense of amusement. He adopted a very serious expression, his grip tightening on the phone.

Nearby, Glades Horne heard his low exclamation, stopped arranging the snack counter, and looked at him.

"My vegetables are all problematic. Many factory workers who ate the vegetables my workers delivered are suffering from symptoms like vomiting and abdominal pain. It's suspected they were sprayed with an excessive amount of pesticide. All the hospitals are filled with these workers, vomiting or in pain. This has alarmed the media and the City Health Department. Now all my vegetables are being tested, and I've been brought to the Police Station for investigation," Rachel Bailey explained, roughly outlining why she had been taken in.

As the boss, she was, of course, subject to investigation.

She wasn't afraid of the investigation. What worried her at this moment were the workers—so many of them, thousands! If they had all been poisoned from her vegetables, her guilt would be immense. Yet her produce and grains had always been organically grown. They never used an excessive amount of deadly pesticides; they were always safe. That's why her business kept growing and her reputation kept improving.

She suspected someone had deliberately poisoned the produce.

All of this she could look into later. Right now, what she wanted most was to visit the hospitalized victims to understand the latest situation. But there she was, with a great responsibility, detained at the Police Station and unable to leave.

"Damn it!" Hansen Ruiz growled after hearing his wife's words.

Noah Reyes! It must have been his doing!

"Rachel, don't be scared! I'll come right away!" Hansen Ruiz roared, then quickly reassured his wife.

"Hansen Ruiz, could you first go to the hospitals and find out the condition of those poisoned workers for me? They are what I'm most worried about right now—thousands of them..." Rachel's heart clenched tightly at the thought of so many people potentially poisoned by her vegetables.

She also wanted to know the test results. She hoped everything was a misunderstanding.

"Alright, I'll arrange for someone to go," Hansen Ruiz said, walking briskly toward the office door. His pace was more urgent than ever before, his face tighter than ever.

"Ruiz, what happened to Rachel?" Glades Horne followed him, asking in a low voice. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Glades, Noah Reyes has made his move!" Hansen Ruiz growled in anger after entering the elevator. "Rachel's vegetables are suspected of being sprayed with highly toxic pesticides. Now, thousands are showing symptoms of poisoning and have been sent to the hospital. All the hospitals are filled with people. Rachel's farm has always used green cultivation, usually without pesticides, and the fertilizers are mostly organic. For many years, no one has ever been poisoned from eating her products. Her reputation is so good; it can only be Noah Reyes's doing! Damn it! He's actually toying with the lives of thousands of people!"

Besides being worried about Rachel, Hansen Ruiz was also filled with boundless anger.

Noah Reyes had completely enraged him, Hansen Ruiz, the so-called smiling tiger.

Sometimes he, Hansen Ruiz, would stop at nothing to get what he wanted, but he would never toy with thousands of lives.

Rachel was framed, and he was certain he could clear her name. But those innocent people, how could they ever be repaid?

Upon hearing this, Glades Horne's face instantly darkened.

He immediately called the hospital under the Valence Group, instructing the Dean to spare no effort in treating all the poisoned patients brought in. He then ordered everyone he could command to carry out a city-wide search to determine how many people were displaying symptoms of poisoning.

He trusted Rachel's character completely; this definitely couldn't be her fault. Just as Hansen Ruiz had said, it must have been Noah Reyes's doing. Noah Reyes is the leader of the Order of the Flaming Gate, an organization that is both righteous and evil. When they turn to evil, they are capable of killing people as easily as squashing ants.

Noah Reyes is truly ruthless! He actually started by targeting Rachel Bailey!

Out of all of them, Rachel Bailey was the most vulnerable and the easiest target. An attack on her would have the greatest impact.

Noah Reyes!

Glades Horne couldn't help but gnash his teeth.

Meanwhile, Glades Horne also instructed his people to thoroughly investigate the matter. Additionally, he urged the sample inspection department to expedite the test results. If Rachel's vegetables were indeed the problem, they would have to go all-out to trace who poisoned them and confirm whether it really was Noah Reyes. Even though they were almost certain Noah Reyes was behind it, they needed evidence. Glades Horne and Hansen Ruiz usually played tricks, but in this matter, they had to have proof, or they wouldn't be able to deal with Noah Reyes.

Glades Horne and Hansen Ruiz rushed to the Police Station as quickly as possible. Julia Bluen, having heard the news, also arrived. Julia was Rachel Bailey's best friend, so naturally, she came as soon as she learned Rachel was in trouble.

A large number of Reporters were gathered outside the Police Station, eager to know the progress of the incident.

When they arrived at the Police Station, both Glades Horne and Hansen Ruiz received calls from their men. The calls indicated that the scope of the poisoning wasn't broad, affecting only a few small and medium-sized factories. These factories provided room and board, and the total number of people affected was over three thousand four hundred. They were all experiencing vomiting and stomach pain, but there were no severe cases so far. No deaths had occurred, and no patients needed their stomachs pumped, proving the poisoning was mild.

Learning that there were no deaths and the poisoning was confined to just a few factories, Rachel breathed a slight sigh of relief. Her vegetables were consumed by so many people; if they were truly the problem, the number of poisoned individuals definitely wouldn't be just a few thousand. If it was indeed found that her vegetables were the issue, the police could then fully investigate the possibility that someone had deliberately poisoned them to frame her.
