The Intoxication

Dr. Sophia's face paled as she heard Victor's appalling words. "What?! Someone poisoned you?! Do you know which chemical they used? I'll get the antidote immediately!"

Victor had broken into a vigorous sweat. "I'm unsure since it was in my food and was tasteless and odorless."

The female doctor felt a crippling pang of anxiety rush over her, but she made a resolute face. She wouldn't let the man she loved die before her eyes. "How did the poison enter your system?"

"It was in a slice of cake." Victor realized Courtney Blackwell had tried to kill him with a nefarious plan. She used Carol to lower his defenses.

Based on the symptoms, it was a fast-acting chemical. An ordinary guy would probably be already dead. However, Victor was functionally immune to poisons and toxins. Even the most potent substances like hemlock wouldn't even make him drowsy. But there was something different about Courtney's poison.
