After she returned to her office, Minerva sat down, her head still spinning.

It was most likely due to the side effects of the gastric problems the day before. She reached out her hand and massaged her temples with much force. She felt much more energized. But this time... her gastric problems seemed to flare up more severely than before, and she was in great pain even until now.

Minerva remained seated for a while before Vera came in.

She walked over to Minerva with a pile of documents in her arms, pulling a chair, and sat down beside her.
