Tiffany 505

Chapter 505

Victor's whole body trembled, his breath quickening with excitement, and even his previously dull eyes seemed to light up suddenly.

"Faith... It's Faith?" Victor said weakly.

Before Tiffany could react, her hand was tightly grasped.

The grip was weak and frail. She could have easily pulled her hand free. But the hope in the old man's eyes made it impossible for her to do so.

She frowned slightly without moving and looked at Samuel with a questioning gaze.

Samuel rubbed his face and composed himself before saying. "Mr. Ashton had a younger daughter named Faith. Twenty years ago, she ran away with someone, severing ties with her father, and never returned. "That continued for three years until Mr. Ashton couldn't let go and sent people to find her, only to discover that... she was already gone. All that remained was a child whose whereabouts were unknown... Samuel looked up at Tiffany, speaking slowly, "And you look remarkably similar to Ms. Ashton."

The implication was clear.

Tiffany smiled, then inserted a few needles into Victor. Shortly, he fell into a deep sleep. His vital signs were weak, but at least he had something to keep him going, and his body could still hold on for a while. The ward was so quiet that only the sound of the monitoring devices could be heard.

Tiffany said slowly, "Prepare yourselves. Given his current condition, he may only have a few days left."

"What? Not even the spirit herbs can save him?" Keith's eyes filled with tears, and he almost fell to his knees. "I beg you, please save Mr. Ashion!"

Tiffany shook her head helplessly. It wasn't that she didn't want to save him, but she simply couldn't.

Nothing in this world was absolute. The spirit herbs could save lives, detoxify, and even extend life, but when someone had truly reached the end of the line, no medicine could change that

"But Mr. Ashton was fine before. He was in good shape. How could he collapse so suddenly, and now you're saying there's no way to save him?" Samuel said emotionally.

Tiffany explained, "I already told you, there was something wrong with what he's been eating. It is a slow-acting poison, building up over time and weakening his body. Even though the spirit herbs I provided last time could remove the poison in him, it was already too late."
