Their Villain, The Mogul's Beloved

Yannis asked gently, “Zinnia, what would you like to eat? I can make something for you.”

That afternoon, Yannis walked into the home lab to find Zinnia busy preparing a herbal bath remedy for Nathan.

For Nathan’s condition now, merely taking medicine wouldn’t do much good. But soaking in the herbal bath remedy at night could help alleviate some of Nathan’s pain.

“Don’t worry about me, Yannis. I’m not hungry yet,” Zinnia replied without looking up. She was meticulously preparing the mildest restorative formula.

Yannis squatted down in front of her and said, “How about I make you some sweet soup, honey? You barely ate at lunch; your body can’t take this.”

At lunch, she barely touched her food before rushing upstairs and burying herself in the home lab.

Nathan was already in bad shape. Yannis couldn’t afford to let anything happen to her now.

“Thanks, Yannis. That’s really kind of you.” Meeting his worried gaze, Zinnia paused briefly in her work before nodding.

“Don’t mention it. I’ll go make it for you right now,” Yannis said affectionately, gently ruffling her hair.

At the moment, Nathan’s condition was unstable, and Jackson was in the room keeping watch over him. Meanwhile, Yannis stayed by Zinnia’s side.

Yannis left the lab and went downstairs to make some sweet soup for her.

Right now, she couldn’t stomach anything else. Only something sweet might get her to eat a little.

Zinnia watched Yannis walk away. She then lowered her gaze, her eyes unconsciously drifting to the box of seeds on the table, her mind elsewhere.

As she kept staring, she noticed something unusual–the wrinkled surface of the seed seemed different.

Zinnia shot upright and snatched up the box.

She picked up the seed from the box and leaned in close, examining it intently. Then she gently ran her fingers over the wrinkled surface of the seed.

Although the seed’s surface was still wrinkled, Zinnia could sense a subtle change in it.

The wrinkles on the surface weren’t as hard or sharp as before. It was almost as if something had softened them.

Zinnia carefully ran her fingers over it, verifying the changes.

Once she confirmed the change was real, her heart raced and tears welled up in her eyes.
