Chapter 414
Winnie was seated next to Yolanda. She tugged on Yolanda's sleeve worriedly. "Is there really something wrong
with the soup?"
"Yes." Yolanda was just planning to ignore Diana and the rest. She nodded toward Winnie and added, "Don't drink
it."
As for others, it didn't matter to her if they drank it or not. She had already told them not to. If someone were to
drink the fake goldenseal and get poisoned, it would no longer be her problem.
To be fair, having drunk fake goldenseal in a soup might not guarantee poisoning if someone had amazing
health. If they were to consit, they might be okay.
However, those with not that great bill of health might get mild food poisoning symptoms like abdominal pain. If
the symptoms were unfortunately in the severe stage, it could cause one's body to shut down and even lead to
death.
Yolanda wasn't too worried. Since she was there at the scene, it was very easy for her to handle mild symptoms

Winnie looked at her bowl of soup and pushed it aside, making her decision clear. She didn't know why, but she
subconsciously trusted Yolanda.
Maybe because Yolanda had exhibited extraordinary wit and poise earlier at the Cerulean Abode sales office,
Winnie felt like the Yolanda she knew now was completely different from the little girl she once knew.
"Hah, ignorant bumpkins. Such a wonderful soup, and you don't know how to appreciate it. Ignore her.
"Let's drink up! | want a second serving of this soup!"
Alice downed the entire bowl of soup as she spoke. Their family usually lived frugally, saving on food wherever
they could. Since they cto feast for free today and had deliberately bought a bottle of red wine, they had to
drink their money's worth of such amazing goldenseal chicken soup.
"Come, let's drink. Ignore her. The soup wouldn't taste as good once it's cold."
Diana was feeling helpless and angry. No matter how she told Yolanda off, she was still nonchalant, and she
didn't seem to do anything about it. Diana felt like her advice had fallen on deaf ears, making her very irritated.
Harold, Joe, and the others lifted their spoons and were about to put them in their mouths when they heard a
crack.
The bowl Alice was holding had fallen to the ground and had shattered into pieces. Alice cradled her stomach
and fell to the floor. She was howling in pain. "Ahhh! My tummy!"
In just a few minutes, Alice's shirt was soaked with sweat. She was rolling on the floor in anguish. "It hurts!
Ahhh!"
"Are you okay, Mom?"
"Honey!"
Paul rushed over immediately and tried to help Alice up.
Harold was flabbergasted. "What's going on?"
Diana and Joe's faces contorted. Fear flashed in Yvonne's eyes.
Alice collapsed after drinking the chicken soup. She didn't believe Yolanda
previously, but fortunately, Alice collapsed before Yvonne drank any of the soup. If not, it would have ended
badly.
"Quick, call 911!" Joe was still somewhat calm.
"If she has food poisoning she needs to have her stomach pumped immediately!
What are you still standing there for? Make the call, hurry!"
Paul was trying to comfort Alice on one end and yell orders at Diana on the other end.
"Okay..." Diana scurried to the living room to grab her phone.
At the stime, Yolanda went to Alice's side and squatted down.
"What are you doing?" Paul looked warily at Yolanda.
"You foul mouth! You've been saying something about poison since just now. Now that my mom's really
poisoned, are you happy?
"Why are you so evil?"
