Maggie was startled, feeling her spirits plummet.

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.
