The Lovers' Herb that Selena handed to Flora had just started budding. "Flora, I plan to grow this plant and give it to my crush. Rumors are saying that giving this plant to one's crush would convey your feelings and get them to accept you. I've been keeping this for a few days, but it's starting to brown. I'm worried that it won't survive. "Your family specializes in growing herbs, right? I heard that you have a talent for it."Selena asked with pleading eyes, "Can you help me out? I won't blame you even if you fail. I'm just running out of options. If this plant dies, I'll be really upset. You're my best friend, so just try your best for me." Flora couldn't say no. After all, it was just a plant. The Reeds were a family of doctors and Flora practically grew up in the herb garden. As Selena mentioned, Flora had a talent that allowed her to easily grow herbs that others struggled to raise, including herbs that were close to being extinct. For decades, the Reed family hel

When Sandra saw the Lovers' Herb in Flora's room, she started secretly investigating the whereabouts of the Lovers' Herb. Worried that the Lovers' Poison might reappear in the market once again, Sandra spared no effort. Although they eventually traced it back to Selena, she seemed to be well-prepared. They could only discover that Selena had gone through several suppliers to obtain the Lovers' Herb.After that, there was no way to find out more. Sandra had a good relationship with the mayor of Jorn City and contacted him. She informed him of the dangers of the Lovers' Poison and requested more help in the investigation to prevent a recurrence of the tragedy from years ago. However, the mayor dismissed Sandra's concerns, thinking she was exaggerating. He had never experienced the power of the Lovers' Poison and simply couldn't believe that it could have such great influence.While Sandra was resourceful, she couldn't match the cunningness of Selena and the people behind her.

However, it was hard to get away even if she knew something was wrong. The politician kept trying to prolong the conversation, and other guests joined. Even Selena came to stall as well. By the time she noticed it, she no longer had the strength to get away. "Layla, why are you so weak with alcohol? Let me help you back to your room." Selena took Flora's arm and tried to drag her away. Flora had already discovered Selena's true personality and couldn't trust her. She waved her hands. "It's okay. I can leave on my own."She stumbled away, but Selena couldn't possibly let her leave. Flora was practically dragged into the politician's room and delivered to his bed.She knew she was no match for these people and Selena's plan for her. She was devastated, and when Selena reached a business deal with the politician outside, Flora was livid. She had been right. All the concern that Selena showed her was fake, and her target had always been the Lovers' Poison. More precisely,

"So, because of this incident, you became utterly disappointed with Mr. Victor and Jorn City, therefore choosing to leave?" Faye's voice was devoid of any emotions.Flora was still immersed in past grief and stared blankly at Faye, unsure of what to say.Her daughter was indeed different from her past self. Faye was smart and clever, unlike Flora when she was younger, who looked smart but lacked experience. She had been so naïve that she was tricked into doing someone's bidding for them. Thinking back to those years, Flora still found it difficult to let go. Faye's voice successfully brought her back to reality, and she nodded. "That was just the tipping point."What truly led Flora to leave was Victor and Diana. After the incident, Flora was disoriented. She thought everything could still be salvaged, only to realize it was already too late.Ever since she successfully developed the first Lovers' Poison pill, Selena and the people behind her had begun their meticulous plan

Faye left Flora's room and returned to her own room with Cedric. Worried that Flora's story might affect Faye's mood, Cedric stayed and chatted with her. Only when he was sure that Faye was fine did he go back to work. Faye sat on the balcony of her room and gazed at the beautiful scenery outside. However, her mind was still pondering over her mother's words.Since the events in the past were orchestrated by Selena and her backers, why couldn't Victor and the Reed family completely deal with Selena back then? Who were the people behind Selena? There was also a political figure involved. Since he didn't succeed in defiling Flora that night and ended up beaten by Victor, his deal with Selena would be voided. Therefore, this politician couldn't be the mastermind.Faye felt that this matter was related to the Anderson family. The events over 20 years ago didn't seem to have much to do with Diana. In this story, Diana only played the role of Flora's love rival. However, Faye
