CHAPTER 39
Lious arrived at the hospital immediately,the nurses helped him in bringing Ella on a stretcher in to the hospital.
“quick, where are the damn doctors?call them!.” Lious said in such an angry and loud voice.
“Calm down sir, this is a hospital and there are other patients” A nurse replied.
“If anything should happen to my fiancee and my unborn child, I swear I’ll burn down this building,” Lious yelled.
“Nora, quick call the doctor, Sydney help me take her to the emergency ward,”The chief nurse said immediately.
After she gave her orders, the nurses started working according to the orders. Not too long after, the doctor came out putting on his coat and hanging his stethoscope on his neck, He briskly walked towards the emergency ward.
“Doc, make sure my fiancee is saved,”Lious said.
“She will be fine,I will try all my possible best Mr Maxwell,”The doctor replied.
The doctor walked into the emergency ward, he checked Ella’s heart beat, and the sound was almost not heard.
“Quick, prepare toxicological consultations.” The doctor said to one of the nurse.
After a minute of consultation, the doctor found out that she was acute.”Get me the water fast.” The doctor said.
Water is usually the first thing given to a poisoned pregnant woman. A lot of it.
They forced about a liter of water into her mouth before commencing the treatments.

“Let’s take this drink to a test lab.” Clark said.
“It will take time for the test results to be out, so why don’t we do it this way. I’ll go to the party and look for clues about what really happened to Ella while you will go to the test lab.”Vera said.
“That’s a good idea,I will get going now,”Clark replied and left the party immediately.
Vera walked in circles, she didn’t know where to start finding clues from. Just when she was about to give up, an idea popped up her mind.
“The maid!” She shouted.
Vera hurriedly ran to the kitchen looking for the maid who offered Ella a drink She searched, but it was to no avail.
She palmed her face and was very frustrated at the moment, suddenly her eyes sighted something,it was a CCTV.
Vera then ran to the securities.
“Please I need the footage of what happened in the party thirty minutes ago.” She said.
“What for?” One of the securities asked.
“It’s very important and urgent, that little footage can save a life.” Vera said while breathing heavily.
“Alright, give us a minute, and we will deliver it.” the security man replied.
After few minutes of searching all the footages and none were corresponding to the case on ground, she found the footage which she was looking for.
“Lia! ” She shouted.
“I have to inform Lious about this.” Vera said and picked up her phone. She dialed Lious number, and he picked up almost immediately.
“Lious, I’ve found the culprit. It’s no other person than .”
“Then you know what? Inform the corps about it. Make sure she hasn’t left the party, cus she will pay dearly if anything should happen to my baby and fiancee.”
Vera ended the call and started searching for Lia everywhere while putting 911 on line. She reported the case to them, and they promised that they were on their way.
Vera searched every nook and cranny of the building, but couldn’t find Lia. She concluded that Lia had left the party.
Just then, Clark came in with the test results.
“Ella had polonium in her drink.”
“Oh my goodness! Polonium is a very deadly poison and can lead to convulsion or even coma when taken at a high dose. Good thing Ella didn’t finish the drink.”
“So, did you find out who is responsible for the poisoning?” Clark asked
“Lia… It was Lia.”
“Let’s head to the hospital now.” Clark said.
“No, I’ll wait here for the corps, you can go.”
“Alright, take care.” Clark said and started leaving for the hospital.

“Lious, how is Ella?” Clark asked from afar after sighting lious who was pacing around.
“I don’t know, I haven’t heard from the doctor. So from you guys test results, what really happened to Ella?”
“Ella was poisoned by…..” Before Clark could complete his statements, the doctor walked in and completed the statement.
“Polonium,Polonium is a very deadly poison and can’t be cured.”
“What are you trying to say doctor?” Lious asked curiously.
“Calm down sir,had it been you wasted a minute in bringing Ella here,we would have lost her and the baby. We succeeded in removing the poison from her before it started eating her delicate organs, but she will take few weeks to be on her feet again and also the baby is safe,”The doctor announce.
“Can I see her now?” Lious asked.
“Although,the patient needs rest but you can go and see her,”The doctor replied.
“You mean we can go and see her?” A voice said and they all turned back to see Vera.
Clark gave her a questioning look, she understood and the look.
“The corps are on their way to arrest Lia so rest a-ssured she will be where she deserves to be any minute from now,”Vera said.
“How is Ella and the baby doing?”Lious mother asked immediately she arrived at the hospital.
“They are both save mum,”Lious replied.
“And what about the culprit?”Lious mum asked.
“They will be behind bars very soon mum,”Lious replied.
