There was one bottle which had not been broken, Phoebe opened it and she took a sniff.
[I can't believe this.] She scoffed.
There was no need to check the ingredients of the tonic, the Saxon spirit was right. There was a smell a deadly foreign poisonous substance that had been added to the tonic.
"Grandma were you wearing the ring when you touched the bottles?"
The old woman nodded.
"That explains why they kept breaking, the ring provided protection. The tonic was poisoned, all of it, including the ones which are not broken. You would have died if you had drunk this."
All of them were stunned at the news, the old lady even gasped. Luke asked to take a look at the bottle Phoebe was holding and she handed it over.
Grinding her teeth, grandma Mayfair slammed her fist on the table.
