He used the excuse of doing it for Micah's good but ended up making one mistake after another.

He caused irreparable harm to Sadie, created insurmountable obstacles for Micah, and even left a shadow in the hearts of his three great-grandchildren.

In the past, he couldn't understand why they blamed him. He thought everything he did was for their good, preparing for the future.

Now, after he thought about it again, he realized he was really self-righteous.

It started to rain outside as if to show his deep regret.

Micah returned to his room, took off all his clothes, and took a thorough shower. He even had Dahlia destroy the clothes on the spot.

They were so meticulous and cautious to prevent any residual poison on the clothes from causing unnecessary harm.

Just after finishing his shower, Andrew hurriedly came to report, "The police called. Ella died from poisoning on the way, and her death was extremely horrifying."

"Her own mistakes led to an unfortunate end," Micah frowned and said sternly. "She wanted to use such a vicious poison to harm Sadie but ended up drinking it herself."

"Yes, that poison was really strong," Andrew said with lingering fear. "Luckily, Ms. James wasn't spilled. But are you really okay? That potion was spilled on your face at the time."

"I'm fine. I'm sure I didn't ingest any drop," Micah said confidently, spreading his arms. "Look, I'm perfectly fine now, aren't I? If there were a problem, I would have shown symptoms by now."

"That's true." Andrew looked Micah up and down and, indeed, found nothing wrong. It seemed he was overthinking it.

"What else did the police say?" Micah asked. "What about the other accomplices?"

"Nelson is being investigated by the police for conspiracy, the Lingston Group has been officially sealed, and the funds we previously injected have been returned," Andrew continued. "Everything is going as you predicted." "Good." Micah sat on the sofa.

"Rodolfo called and said he has found Dr. Henry." Andrew poured him a glass of wine. "He also just contacted Ms. James. Dr. Henry agreed to come to Newark immediately upon learning that Ms. James is still alive. Rodolfo has prepared a private jet, and they will be back tonight."

"That's great." Micah finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Mia's illness can be cured. And she can also receive treatment to completely remove the toxins."

"Everything is resolved. It's wonderful!" Andrew exclaimed. "Now we just have to deal with Nick and Amelia, those two villains."

"Keep a close watch on Amelia. Don't let her escape again," Micah instructed.

"Don't worry. We've increased the security this time. She won't be able to escape," Andrew assured.

"As for Nick, we need to carefully consider the next steps." Micah was lost in thought. "Alright, you can go now."

"Yes, sir." Andrew went off to attend to his tasks.

Micah took a sip of wine, got up to change clothes, and prepared to check on the children. However, he felt some discomfort in his eyes, as if something had gotten into them.

He rubbed his eyes and checked in the mirror but found nothing wrong, just some redness at the corners. He thoughtit was probably due to fatigue, and a bit of rest should fix it. Not thinking much of it, he changed his clothes and went out to find the children.

Micah pushed the door open and was stunned.

Noah and Nathan were playing a puzzle game with Mia. Little Coco was standing on Mia's head, and the James family's eagle was perched on a stand next to Noah, watching them play. Seeing someone enter, the eagle immediately spread its wings and flew over, its gaze sharp and imposing.

Micah was about to take action.

"Coco," Noah called out slowly, "Come back."

The eagle glared at Micah, then flew back to stand behind Noah, continuing to watch them play the puzzle. "Did your Mommy leave it here?" Micah asked.

"Mommy said that Coco can protect us while she's not here."
