Chapter 1214: Chapter 1214: A Plan to Kill Two Birds with One Stone Chapter 1214: Chapter 1214: A Plan to Kill Two Birds with One Stone After a moment of silence, Xaviera Evans swept a glance at Mia Reiser with a compassionate yet amused look, wondering if the young girl would explode in rage if she knew that her sense of taste was lost and everything she drank tasted as plain as water.

Xaviera picked up the cup, drank all the echinacea water in one gulp, then flipped the cup upside down to indicate to Mia that she had finished drinking. All the while, her expression remained unchanged.

Her calmness stupefied Mia, who after a long pause hastily picked up Xaviera’s cup to examine it, and then checked the floor to confirm that Xaviera had indeed drunk the water. In complete astonishment, she asked, “You drank it all. Don’t you feel anything?”

Mia had taken up medical studies from a young age and was always playful, fond of tinkering with things to tease people. The bitter echinacea powder she had mixed herself had caused her body to tremble with bitterness at just one sip. Yet, this woman had finished an entire cup without any reaction.

Xaviera glanced at Mia with a calm demeanor and remarked casually, “Only little girls like you would find it bitter. But I, as a mature woman, do not.”

Mia stiffened and retorted, “Who are you calling a little girl?”

She leaned closer to Xaviera and suddenly detected a strong medicinal scent. She hadn’t noticed earlier that Mrs. Mamet was exuding a heavy aroma of medicine.

Mia, being the second daughter of the Reiser family, often socialized with many noble ladies and noblewomen. All the women she encountered usually emitted the fragrance of expensive perfumes. However, Mrs. Mamet, who was elegantly dressed and well-groomed, exuded a medicinal aroma.

Could she be ill? But she looked fine.

After much thought, there was only one possibility. Mrs. Mamet was also a practitioner, who frequently used medicinal herbs, resulting in a vague aroma of medicine that only those who practiced medicine over the years could detect.

Mia leaned closer and sniffed at Xaviera. Her scent was very similar to that of her master, Mr. Mansker.

Mr. Mansker was an elder of the Medical Association who had accepted her as his disciple several years ago. This was something she had kept hidden from the members of the Reiser family. Mrs. Mamet also had this aroma of herbs. Could she also be a disciple of Mr. Mansker?

Considering Mrs. Mamet had consumed an entire bowl of echinacea water with no reaction, it seemed that her medical skills were superior to her own. It was possible that she had become a disciple earlier than Mia. Could it be that she had offended her older sister in the school?

“Miss Reiser, I have already drunk it. Remember what you said earlier,” Xaviera gestured toward her with a raised eyebrow.

Grinding her teeth, Mia retorted, “So, you’re also the teacher’s–”

Before she could finish her comment, an angry voice came from behind, “Mia Reiser!”

Mia quickly turned her head to see her sister Fiona full of fury and urgently headed her way. Seeing that the cup in Mia’s hand was empty, Fiona’s brow furrowed.

“Mia Reiser, what exactly did you give Mrs. Mamet to drink?”

As her words echoed, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop. Caleb Mamet exuded a chilling aura. Before Mia could react, she was restrained by several bodyguards.

The entire scenario caught Xaviera off guard. She looked up at Caleb, and before she could speak, Fiona’s angry voice filled her ears, “Mia, I just told you not to upset Mrs. Mamet and to respect her. But what did you do? You poisoned Mrs. Mamet with your self-made concoctions!”

Fiona looked truly irate, her body trembling. She couldn’t help but glance at Xaviera. She hadn’t expected the plan to proceed so smoothly; in fact, Mia had executed it all and she had no involvement whatsoever.

When the Reiser family felt obliged to give Caleb an explanation, they would undoubtedly turn Mia over to him for punishment. In this way, they could get rid of both Mia and Mrs. Mamet, achieving two goals with one move.

Mia, a girl of dubious origin, had claimed the position of second daughter in the Reiser family for many years. Fiona had been patient for so long, but now she could finally expel Mia. And then there was Xaviera, a lowly girl who had mysteriously married Caleb. She must have used underhanded means.

Fiona knew very well that many women would naturally surround a man like Caleb. But she didn’t care. Those women were only passersby, none of them could possibly marry Caleb. But Xaviera had claimed the position she had dreamed of.

She wouldn’t allow it!

Fortunately, she had seized this opportunity. Using Mia to poison Xaviera, as long as Xaviera’s face was ruined, Caleb would be repulsed and abandon her. Without having to take any blame herself, she would eliminate two irritating presences.
