The Willy family can certainly afford to feed all of you for a meal." Ken heartily laughed. “Ms. Quillen, please cinside!" Mackenzie nodded and followed Ken into the garden.

Rhett walked silently behind her. His sharp eyes were like those of an eagle, constantly scanning his surroundings.

Quintus and the others followed as well.

Despite being a group of skilled fighters, none of them sensed anything out of the ordinary.

Soon, Ken led Mackenzie and her group to an outdoor banquet area, where tables were already covered with delicious food.

"Ms. Quillen, please take your seat! Allow me, as the host, to properly thank you on behalf of West End for your help! 17:28 Tue, Dec 3 Chapter 2019 Everyone Has Been Poisoned! Ken maintained his formal tone.

Mackenzie calmly took her seat.

Lexi, Rhett, and Quintus sat beside her.

As for the seats near Ken, aside from Anthony, there were only a few insignificant people. None of Ken's family members were present.

"Mr. Willy, where is your family?" Mackenzie asked.

"Yes, with such a large home, are you really the only one here? Haha." Quintus added with a laugh.

It seemed unrealistic.

However, Ken had already prepared his response. He smiled and said, "Unfortunately, my wife's younger sister is getting married today. She took the children to the wedding, so I am the only one left at home." 10 17:28 Tue, Dec 3 Chapter 2019 Everyone Has Been Poisoned! "What a coincidence!" 3 Quintus laughed again. "I hope there will not be another coincidence later, like all of us suddenly getting stomach aches!" His comment immediately killed the conversation.

Everyone at the table fell silent, exchanging uneasy glances.

Ken paused for a moment before laughing and asking, "Who might you be?" "I am the most loyal, brave, and handsknight of the beautiful Ms. Quillen, Quintus Lenoir!" Quintus introduced himself, leaving everyone at the table speechless for a moment.

What a character! Ken laughed. "Mr. Lenoir, you have a great sense of humor! Do not worry! Though West End is not as economically developed as Nuthana, and I cannot compare in wealth, the food here is clean and safe. No one will get a stomach ache from it Despite his reassurance, everyone exchanged glances, and no one dared touch the food.

# Ken raised his gloss, turning to Mackenzie. "Come, Ms. Quillen. A toast to you and to all the heroes here!" No one moved, Mackenzie was unsure whether the food or drink was tainted. As a guest, however, if the host had already raised a toast, she, as the leader, could not doubt him without appearing rude or causing tension. Fortunately, at that moment, an elderly man entered with a few others, laughing "Mr. Willy, you have arranged this banquet for Ms. Quillen, yet! cuninvited. Surely, you will not thinktoo bold and askto leave?" Mr Abovos? 17:29 Tue, Dec 3 3 Chapter 2019 Everyone Has Been Poisoned! Mackenzie immediately stood up to show her respect for the elderly man.

One, she did it to gain his favor.

Two, it would prevent Ken from dismissing him.

"Haha, how could I? Mr. Abovos, you are an honored guest too. I am delighted you came!" "Really? Then let us drink!" Jidrus grabbed a bottle from the table and took a drink.

As a native of West End, Jidrus knew the internal politics of the West End Chamber of Commerce and was aware of Ken's connection to Teddy.

Since Mackenzie was Teddy's opponent, it was certain Teddy would want Mr. Willy to eliminate her.

The most effective way was through poison.

14% Jidrus did not know for sure if Ken would follow through with the scheme, but being an old man with little to lose, he was willing to risk himself. Mackenzie had helped the disaster victims in Riverhaven and was a righteous figure. Even if it cost him his life, Jidrus would find a way to protect her. Mackenzie and the others kept a close watch on Ken's expression but saw nothing unusual.

Could we have been wrong? Not only Mackenzie, but the others also began to wonder if they had misjudged Ken. Had he never intended to poison them? "Come, let us drink!" Ken, knowing everyone was suspicious, realized that if he did not drink first, they would not relax. Thus, he and Jidrus drank.

"Come, Ms. Quillen, let us drink together!" Jidrus raised his glass.

Mackenzie raised hers, smiling, while closely watching Ken.

Ken did not hesitate and toasted her.

With that, everyone's doubts were eased.

74% They might not know much about poisons, but they all understood one thing.

The idea that taking an antidote beforehand would prevent poisoning was just fiction from books and TV shows.

In reality, that was impossible.

At Mackenzie's signal, the others followed, raising their glasses inm raising their response. Rhett and the experts from Dark Night Islands had sknowledge of poisons but found nothing suspicious in the food or drink.

"Could it be that this guy does not intend to poison us? Perhaps he plans to face us head-on?" Quintus whispered to Rhett.

Rhett gestured for him to keep quiet. No one knew Ken's true intentions yet, and Mackenzie still hoped to win him over. It would not be wise to sour relations now.

However, before long, the glass in Jidrus hand slipped and shattered on the ground.
