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.

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.

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.
