However, Dominic had not interfered with matters of the outside world for a long time, and Lily did not want to involve him. Living as a carefree recluse was nice, and he should be enjoying his life in old age.Therefore, Lily did not say anything in the end and left with Galen in a hurry, bringing the herbs she had collected. Reaching home, she saw everything was as usual, but her mind was not at rest.She had always thought their house was safe, as she and Alexander had carefully installed various surveillance and safety devices all over the place, and her housekeepers underwent a rigorous selection process.Still, even a palace could not ensure it was 100% safe, let alone an ordinary home like hers.“Galen, you’re back!” Daisy, the nanny, came to welcome them warmly. She wore ordinary loungewear and looked pleasant, with her hair pulled into a bun.Barely over 30, she was relatively young, and her skin was so well taken care of that she looked like someone in her 20s. Even thou

Rhea placed the wooden case on the desk, thought for a moment, then brought the pen holder to the front. Turning around, she took two steps away, then returned to put the wooden case inside the pen holder. She took out several pens and pencils, fit them nicely inside, and let out a slight sigh of relief. She took her clothes and a towel, then went to take a hot bath in the bathroom, as she had not been home for many days. Although there were bathrooms and restrooms at the research institute, she could not take a nice bath there as they were not well-equipped. Lying in the bathtub, she felt her overworked mind and body start to relax, and she grew sleepy. After some time, Rhea jerked awake and was shocked to realize she had fallen asleep in the bathtub and there were footsteps outside. Her brain grew sharp immediately, and she quickly rose from the bathtub. Putting on a bathrobe, she neared the door and heard the footsteps stop outside, not far away. She suddenly pulled the door

Maria noticed her daughter’s disdainful tone and hurriedly said, “Ree, you have no idea because you weren’t there. The miracle doctor is amazing. Out of so many doctors, only he knew that Tasia had gotten poisoned and her obesity had an uncommon cause. Besides, after taking his prescription, I can see that she’s getting better.”“Oh, yeah? How is she better?” Rhea smirked, but no one could tell if she was smiling.Maria thought her daughter’s reaction was weird but did not think much about it. As Rhea rarely showed concern for Anastasia and was willing to talk more, Maria started to babble on the topic, “She looks slimmer, but a fatty can quickly lose weight anyway, and there’s no telling how much she would eventually lose.“However, Tasia has been in good spirits. She used to look sick whenever I talked to her, but not anymore. Anyway, I now feel strange going to your uncle’s house. Every time I step through the gate, I feel like I’ve entered the wrong house.“I haven’t gotten use

Looking on as Anastasia gulped down the herbal soup, Lily handed her a napkin and took the empty bowl from her. “Can you handle the taste?”Wiping the corners of her mouth, Anastasia nodded. “It’s not bad!”“Not bad?” Lily frowned. ‘Even the smell was so pungent. How could she still think it’s not bad?’Seeing her doubtful look, Anastasia chuckled, then picked up a glass near her to take a sip of water and said, “I’ve had God knows how many weird medicines that taste worse than this. The bitter ones were still acceptable, but some were truly disgusting. I…”Pausing, she waved to indicate that she better stop or she would throw up.“You ate them to lose weight?” She could guess so, and Anastasia nodded.“What else? Anyway, I suffered a lot before this, and looking back, I wonder why I should waste my effort. I might as well eat normally and perhaps become a 650-pound fatty and stay that way. Who knows? At least I didn’t have to go through all that.” She sighed. Although it happene

Anastasia stayed until nightfall as Lily wanted to see how her body responded to the medicine.The young woman had gone to the toilet five times in the afternoon. She did not feel much pain in her stomach, which kept growling and making her fart. Embarrassed, Anastasia wanted to leave several times, but Lily stopped her.Lily told her that these were normal reactions to the medicine and she did not need to feel embarrassed. Besides, Lily had to observe Anastasia to make sure she was okay before she could make further adjustments to her prescription.Anastasia had asked her if she should try the prescription given by Austin, but Lily did not allow her, saying that it might clash with hers. However, if she wanted to, she could try it after finishing Lily’s prescription.Fully trusting Lily now, Anastasia, however, had given up that idea.Stepping out of the toilet for the last time, she felt drained and sweating, like she had taken a hot bath. As the weather was not too warm, she th
