Maggie couldn’t quite articulate the reason, but her heart inexplicably tightened, adding a touch of

“Okay.”

She accompanied Samuel to a nearby seat and extended her wrist across the table.

Samuel gently took her pulse, his concentration unwavering.

Meanwhile, Timmothy stood nearby, a slight furrow creasing his brow.

With each passing moment, Maggie’s heart grew heavier. Samuel’s demeanour lacked optimism, signalling a worrisome development.

After some time, Samuel withdrew his hand slowly, deliberating before speaking.

Maggie and Timmothy refrained from pushing for responses, and it wasn’t until later that Samuel asked, “Ms. Adam, do you have any particular tastes in food? Have you been prescribed any medication to maintain your health?”

Maggie halted to ponder. “I haven’t been on any medication lately. When you mention particular food. could you clarify what you’re referring to?”

“Like something that might have poisonous substances,” Samuel elucidated gradually.

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.

“Are you suggesting that I’m displaying symptoms of poisoning?” Maggie fixed her gaze on Samuel, her voice barely above a whisper.

Samuel paused briefly before replying, “Based on the analysis of your pulse, it seems that the effects of the poisoning have been building up in your body for quite some time. It’s a worrisome circumstance.”

Maggie was shocked suddenly.

I was poisoned?

But in my previous life, I never heard

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. I
