Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

"Smoking?" Luca's voice was raised a few pitches higher. If what Johann said was true, then Leia had really made a big mistake.

Luca knew Leia had the habit of smoking, but she should have quit smoking after knowing that she was sick. She asked, "Hasn't she quit smoking yet?"

"Yes, but she smoked a cigarette after the woman convinced her to do so. That one cigarette almost took her life away. The nurse persuaded her not to smoke in a serious tone. She was unconvinced, but she stubbed out the cigarette when she had smoked half of it. The nurse took the rest of the cigarette out of her ward. The doctor on duty saw it and asked the nurse to keep the rest of the cigarette. If anything happened to the patient, this would be considered evidence. I bet you know why," Johann explained to her.

For someone with a social status like Leia, if something happened to her and the doctor could not find out the reason, everything she did and every meal she took might become the reason.

It was because the doctor on duty yesterday was attentive enough and that was why they were able to know why Leia's condition worsened.

"Was it because of that cigarette?" Luca wondered. She never heard that Leia had any friends here after she came back.

Although Leia had left the entertainment industry, she took advantage of Jack's fame. Hence, many men were willing to be in a relationship with her. However, Leia secretly came back here this time. Luca never saw anyone visiting her. After all, it had been kept a secret when she was admitted to the hospital.

"Yes. The head nurse mentioned this to me after she was rescued. Then, I took the cigarette to the lab and asked them to examine it. Although the cigarette is available in the market, two types of herbs were added to the cigarette. Here's the result." Johann handed Luca another hard copy report.

Luca knew about herbal medicine and pharmacology. She was able to understand it with just a glance, so Johann did not say anything much about it.

Luca frowned when she looked at the ingredients on the report. Many people were smoking cigarettes for kicks these days. They would add some herbal ingredients to the cigarettes too. People would usually get a thrill after smoking the cigarette, and it worked better than coffee in lifting one's spirits.

However...

The ingredients of the herbs could damage the organs in the human body once they were taken excessively. Although they were herbal ingredients, they also contained poison.
