"There's only one way for you to get Felton. For now, it might be your best option." A determined voice resonated from the narrow trail outside."Felton has been bedridden for years, and his body has yet to fully recover. This makes him vulnerable. Employing this strategy against him is currently the most efficient approach."Another woman drew in a deep breath. She nodded and said, "Alright, I'll trust you. Lead the way.""Let me be clear, Blake. I'm confiding in you and bringing you here because I value our friendship. If anyone asks about this, you must not reveal that I brought you."Blake said, "Don't worry, I'll claim I stumbled upon it during a casual walk. Your secret is safe with me.""When we return, I'll assist you in obtaining what you desire. A mix of pride and satisfaction appeared on Blake's face, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor around Felton.The other woman nodded. "The banquet is about to start. Let's go inside."With a key, she unlocked the tightly

Faye had foreseen that Felton might encounter difficulties sooner or later. However, with Cedric's arrival, she momentarily overlooked checking on Felton. When she noticed Karston guiding her toward a lounge beside the hall, she sensed something significant had occurred.Sure enough, Karston led Faye to a quiet room where Felton lay unconscious on the bed. Without uttering a word, Faye approached Felton and checked his condition, her expression quickly darkening."When did he lose consciousness?" Faye asked Karston."It happened about half an hour ago. He sent me a message asking me to find him in the back lounge," Karston explained. "I had some business to attend to and reported to Roy. When I saw the message, I hurried over."The numerous lounges made it challenging for Karston to pinpoint Felton's location. Attempts to call him were fruitless as his phone was turned off. Karston had to search room by room until he discovered Felton, eyes closed in a deep slumber.Initially, Kar

As Margot concluded her words, she refrained from advancing further, instead crouching beside Felton in an attempt to feel his pulse. She continued, "In the Reed family, every member, even the servants, possesses a certain understanding of medicine. I can't vouch for other places, but within the Reed family, the only problem is that there's no chance to showcase our skills."While expressing this, Margot's hand had already settled on Felton's wrist. However, the moment her hand made contact with Felton, he reflexively pushed her away with surprising force, causing the unprepared Margot to tumble backward onto the ground.Margot sat frozen on the ground for a moment before regaining her composure. Hearing Margot's earlier words, Sandra, who had hastily approached, found the scene displeasing. She sternly commanded, "Margot, step back."Margot hadn't expected such a trivial matter to catch her grandmother's attention, and her face paled with fear. She quickly rose, bowing her head in

"If you don't believe me, you can find some time to visit the mountain yourself," Faye replied calmly.Sandra's spirits plummeted further with Faye's reply. If she asserted it, it was likely the truth. "How could you possibly know?" Sandra inquired.The rear expanse of the Reed estate was entirely encased by walls and electric fencing. Regular individuals couldn't approach without triggering infrared alarms and being apprehended by guards. Even those with some expertise would struggle to gain access. The medicinal herbs flourishing on the back mountain were indispensable treasures for the Reed family's survival. It was impossible for just anyone to enter casually.Naturally, the demand for medicinal herbs from the Reed family was significant. The herbs cultivated on the back mountain were only a fraction of the vital ones they produced. The primary plantation was located elsewhere. Furthermore, most of the herbs from Yale Pharmacy were directly provided to the Reed family.Indeed

The Reed family, formerly infamous for numerous scandals involving Lovers' Poison, had weathered significant turmoil over the years. For decades now, Sandra had taken charge, strictly overseeing the family's pharmaceutical research. She promptly suppressed anything related to banned substances, particularly those linked to Lovers' Poison, determined to prevent the family from repeating past mistakes.Layla's predicament, initially an accident resulting from manipulation and framing by others, raised internal suspicions within the Reed family. Sandra's two sons, one of average talent but ambitious, constantly sought control through Taylor's skills. The other, despite modest natural gifts, delved into researching various peculiar drugs, especially poisons. Though not directly involved with banned substances, what if, by chance …Furthermore, the Reed family held a position in Jorn City equivalent to the royal family's official medicine supplier. Sandra, a woman in control, faced
