Chapter 1289

That evening, Carissa handed Rafael the pill and explained its potential dangers.

Noticing the hesitation in her eyes, he smiled and said, "What's a little harm? There's medicine to counteract it. After the royal physician examines me, I'll immediately take Snowdrop Pills. On the road, I'll follow Sebastian's instructions. I'll take the medicine daily to build up my strength."

"It's still poison," Carissa countered, her brow furrowed. "Maybe we should think of another solution."

"I think this plan is fine. Sebastian is just being cautious. If the poison was truly dangerous, he wouldn't have given it to me," Rafael reassured.

Carissa looked up at him. "Should we talk to Jacob about this?"

"No need." Rafael set the medicine down and pulled her into his arms. "The fewer people who know, the better. When I collapse at the Supreme Court, Matthew can use my emblem to summon a royal physician. If the royal physician accompanies me back to the estate and sees everyone in a panic, there won't be any suspicion."

Carissa rested her head against his chest, feeling a strange sense of vulnerability. She had always been decisive, but now, her worries clouded her thoughts.

"I'm just worried. If you don't fully recover before you set off for the Southern Frontier despite taking the medicine, and then don't get proper rest on the journey, how will you be able to fight when you arrive?" Her voice trembled with concern, but Rafael's heart warmed at the sight of her care for him.
