The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 426

Chapter 426: NANNY NIA’s INVESTIGATION

Nanny Nia nodded. She said a thanks to the cook and turned around to leave the kitchen.

She was already at the door when the Cook’s voice stopped her.

"Why are you asking all these questions?" He asked.

Nia turned back to face him.

What was the point telling him if he had said twenty four girls came in?

There was no way he would have seen who had tampered with tea and taken the spoon.

But then her intuition kicked in and she shrugged and let out a heavy sigh.

"There was a soon next to the tea." She pointed out. I can’t find it anymore. I know it sounds utterly ridiculous. But it was dear and important to me."

"Oh the spoon you has used to stir the tea when you were making it?" He asked.

Hope lit in her chest.

"Yes!" She exclaimed.

She was absolutely stunned that he even remembered.

"We left it here before we stepped out to see the commotions outside and did not find it." Nia explained.

"Well I might not know who picked it up." He said and Nia felt her heart shattering. "But I know none of the girls that came in after took it."

Nia frowned. "How? You just said you didn’t see it anymore."

"Yes I did." Cook answered as he out his big hand on his waist. He set his knife aside. "Because when I came in, it was already gone. I figured you had carried it out."

Nia blinked. "Are you sure?"

"I’m never wrong about my kitchen." He said. "I can tell when someone has take from my sack of flour or stolen into cheese or eaten into my bread."

Nia wasn’t really interested in hearing if he could tell whether a rat had stolen his soup or a staff had eaten his food.

She wanted to understand what he was saying clearly.

"You are sure that the spoon went missing only after we stepped out and that it was not on the table when we returned or even when the twenty kitchen staff came in." She asked him.

"That’s what I said. I can never be so sure about anything other than the accountability of my kitchen. I know when something has been moved." He pointed

He gave a slight shrug of his shoulders. “I had just assumed that you had been the one to take it when it was no longer there so I didn’t ask about it.

Nia took in a very deep breath.

This meant that someone had come into the kitchen and conveniently carried the spoon when they went out.

Which is why it was possible someone had tampered with the tea.

But why did they carry the spoon?

This changed everything and if her suspicions were right.

Someone was trying to kill Jasmine.

Someone within the pack.

Nanny Nia felt weak to the bones.

Who?

There were so many people in the pack. It could have been anyone. freēwēbnovel.com

Who could she tell this to?

And then it hit her

He frowned. "What?"

"Erik I have reason to believe that Jasmine was the target of a poisoning." She explained.

"Poisoning?" Erik said lost.

"Yes." Nanny Nia said. "And Jasmine may have lost her baby or even worse if she took that tea. But Kire somehow. I think he knew."

And then Nanny Nia bent down to where Kire was and very gently rubbed his large head.

"You knew didn’t you?" Nanny Nia asked.

Kire howled in response.

"Shouldn’t you be able to know what he thinks?" Nanny Nia asked him.

Erik shook his head. "Kire has been away from me for so long that it’s really hard to figure or know what he is thinking anymore. I can only sense him."

Nanny Nia sighed. "Hmmm. well that’s at a loss to us now. We could have asked him what he knew."

Erik shook his head in disbelief. "Poison. Who made that tea?"

"It was me." Nanny Nia said and Erik’s eyes widened in shock.

"I didn’t mean I did it." She said stopping him right in his thought tracks. "I served her tea as usual and only stepped out when I heard some noise. By the time

I returned back I took it to Jasmine. It was

Then Kire went straight for the tea and pushed it down. After that he was growling at Lily."

At the mention of her name, Kire began to growl aggressively.
