Maggie was startled, feeling her spirits plummet.

Poisonous substances in my food? Was he insinuating that I might have been poisoned?

Maybe there weren’t any poisonous substances in her food after all. It might have been Samuel’s subtle way of cautioning her.

Maggie was shocked suddenly.

Hold on, Mr. Hudson remark about the prolonged poisoning suggested it wasn’t a recent occurrence since my rebirth. So, is it conceivable that I was also poisoned in my previous life?

Maggie tried to catch elusive thoughts that slipped away from her mind like quicksilver.

“Is there any remedy?” Timmothy inquired, his brow creased with worry and voice resonant.

“It’s a formidable predicament.
