Just as Vivian Drew finished speaking, a servant rushed downstairs, panic-stricken, and shouted, "Miss Drew! Something's wrong! The family head... the family head has fainted again!"
Everyone was initially puzzled that Sir Drew hadn't yet come downstairs with all the commotion below. But now the servant was saying that Sir Drew had fainted again!
Vivian Drew was dumbstruck, standing still, with a buzzing sound in her ears. After a long while, she managed to speak, her lips trembling, "What did you say? My father has fainted?"
Doctors from the Medical Association quickly went upstairs to diagnose Sir Drew. In a short while, the doctors came back down and determined that Sir Drew had been poisoned, and Boyd's blindness was also due to poisoning.
