Chapter 1223: "Then Catherine and I went to find Verena," Bethany said. "I kept her distracted while Catherine quietly switched her drink with the one from the maid." She shrugged and added, "You all saw what happened next." "I see!" Johnson said, his face lighting up with realization.

He heaved a long, weary sigh.
"So Verena bribed a maid in the Alvarado household?" Johnson asked.
Belinda narrowed her eyes. "We can't really be sure about that yet, but that maid is definitely connected to Verena somehow. I just don't know if she had any other accomplices." "What do you think Verena was trying to drug Belinda with?" Catherine suddenly asked.
"Yeah!" Bethany said, equally curious. "What kind of drug was it? How did Verena lose control so quickly? And those vile words... Well, even Verena wouldn't normally say such things." Lucas, who had been silent with a grim expression, finally spoke. "Judging from her behavior, it seems she has taken a hallucinogen." "A hallucinogen?" Bethany asked.
"That actually makes a lot of sense," Johnson agreed with a nod. “After taking it, one would experience visual distortions and auditory illusions. It can also amplify one's emotions, whether they are positive or negative. It all lines up with the symptoms Verena exhibited, wouldn't you agree?" Vincent narrowed his eyes. "Verena knew that simply drugging Belinda wouldn't have much effect, since Lucas was there. But if Belinda took a hallucinogen... That would be a different story altogether.

Belinda pursed her lips. "But... there's just one thing that has been bothering me..." "What do you mean?" "What is it?"

"I'm familiar with hallucinogens and their effects," Belinda said.
"Technically speaking, they shouldn't e cause seizures or incontinence-unless Verena has an existing condition like epilepsy. Otherwise, her reaction is a bit off."
"Maybe she took a higher dose than was necessary? Bethany. Suggested. NO.
"That could have worsened the effects."
