Chapter 22 Poison Can Harm and Heal
But he never considered himself.
Daphne unconsciously sighed as she thought about this. She placed a pair of flats in front of Samantha. “Mrs. Dean, I noticed you wore high heels yesterday and ended up hurting your feet. Since high heels don’t suit you, wear flats instead.”
Samantha looked at the flats, which were roughly her size, and curiously asked Daphne, “Ms. Stuart, how do you know my size?”
Of course, she didn’t know! The shoes were sent over by Finley early in the morning. However, since he forbade her from telling the truth, Daphne simply came up with an excuse. “I estimated.”
Daphne, whether in her past life or this one, was quite attentive. Moreover, in her past life, Daphne took care of everything for her, so Samantha didn’t doubt Daphne’s words.
After putting on the flats Daphne provided and expressing her gratitude, Samantha went to the bathroom to freshen up. When she came out, Daphne was still in the room. Samantha asked curiously, “Ms. Stuart, is there anything else?”
“Mr. Dean went to the company today. Before leaving, he instructed that if you want to go anywhere, you should have the chauffeur drive you instead.”
Samantha felt a little awkward after hearing Daphne’s words.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Although she didn’t mention to Finley last night that she had damaged his car, Finley, being Finley, could certainly find out easily where the car went if he wanted to know. So, when he had Daphne tell her not to drive, it was probably because he didn’t want her to ruin another of his beloved cars, right?
After all, he still didn’t like her at the moment. It wouldn’t make sense if he forbade her from driving because he was concerned about her safety.
Samantha scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly. “Got it. I won’t drive anymore.”
“Let’s go down for breakfast then, Mrs. Dean.
“Okay”
After breakfast, Samantha instructed the chauffeur to take her down the mountain. The matter of detoxifying Finley was urgent, so Samantha planned to head down the mountain that day to buy medicinal herbs that could be used to detoxify Finley and help him prepare the medicine.
The poison in Finley’s body was complex, and to detoxify, they needed to fight fire with fire. Also, the dosage had to be precise, or Finley could die from it. Additionally, Samantha didn’t know the poison’s formula, so she planned to experiment on herself. As long poisoned while taking the medicine, it would indicate that she had succeeded.
Under the escort of the chauffeur, Samantha arrived at a traditional pharmacy.
s she didn’t get
Looking at the bustling traditional pharmacy, Samantha handed over the list of herbs she had noted down beforehand to the pharmacist. Seeing various poisonous herbs on Samantha’s prescription, the pharmacist unconsciously frowned. “Miss, what do you want to do with so many poisonous herbs?”
“I have plans for them.”
Besides, the combination of multiple poisonous herbs might not necessarily create poison. It could also possibly be a cure. She remembered the genius doctor told her this in her past life: poison could harm and heal. A blend of multiple poisonous herbs could also be a cure to save lives.
After hearing Samantha’s words, the pharmacist said to her, “Miss, for us to dispense these kinds of poisonous herbs, we need to register with your real name. After all, if something goes wrong, we need to be able to locate the person responsible.”
Samantha acknowledged and took out her ID. Following the pharmacist’s instructions, she completed a real–name registration before waiting for the pharmacist to prepare the herbs she needed.
