Chapter 3451 Sending Good News And Leaving Out The Bad

If Shanks' prescription could help Hera sleep earlier, that would not be a bad

thing.

"Then I need to be treat..." Hera paused for a moment, realizing she could not say the word treatment. That would imply she was sick, and she could not let people know that. Instead, she corrected herself and asked, "How long will I need to take this herbal medicine?"

"You can stop when your test results are back to normal," replied Luca as she picked up the medical waste and headed out of the room.

Gerald followed closely behind and asked with curiosity, "Ms. Craw, how long is that?"

"How long is a standard treatment cycle?" Luca asked in return.

Gerald pondered for a moment. "Usually about a month?"

"The average endocrine cycle for women is three months, so the minimum duration for proper regulation is three months," explained Luca.

Although Abel could take action at any time, there was no way Hera could endure three full months of treatment.

However, until Abel made his move, she would have to keep taking the medicine.

Gerald shuddered. "Three months of drinking that awful stuff? I'd rather die."

Luca shot him a glare. "For someone who values their life so much, if you had to choose between three months of herbal medicine and death, which would you pick?"

Gerald chuckled sheepishly. "Ms. Craw, no need to take it so seriously. If three months of herbal medicine was the only way to survive, of course, I'd choose the medicine. But seriously, what's wrong with Ms. Sanchez? Why does she need to take herbal medicine for so long?"

Gerald's curiosity was burning, especially now that the question had popped into his head.

If he did not get his questions answered, he would feel restless and uneasy.

"Does taking herbal medicine automatically mean there's something wrong?" Luca dodged the question, unwilling to risk Gerald's loose lips.

"Well, not necessarily...” Gerald shook his head. “But it's still strange, isn't it? Why would someone perfectly fine need to drink that stuff for three months?"

He held up three fingers for emphasis.

As they reached the second-floor hallway, Luca turned to him. "Do you think your body is in perfect health?"

"Of course! I eat well and sleep great. Ever since I started practicing the fighting skills Lucius taught me, I feel like I can breathe more easily. My body has never felt better!" Gerald answered confidently.

Luca glanced at him. "That's what you think. But if someone took your pulse, you'd probably end up needing herbal medicine too. That doesn't mean you're unhealthy; it just means your body could use some fine-tuning."

Gerald shivered at the mention of drinking herbal medicine himself. "I get it now! So, Ms. Sanchez isn't actually sick. She's just trying to improve her health. That's what you mean, right?"
