The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 182
Mirabella flicked through the assorted bottles and jars in the chest with a rare hint
of solemnity gracing her usually impassive features.
Solace Stem was a neurotoxin, not aggressively potent, but insidious enough to
slowly ravage every nerve in a human body.
For most, the poison would remain dormant without causing noticeable harm
unless the body suffered a nerve-related injury. However, once triggered, it
would spread like vines, stealthily assaulting the neurons until the victim was left
a shell of their former self.
The clinical signs were intermittent mental agitation, a distinct purplish hue at the
temples, and, as the poison advanced, rapid weight loss accompanied by subtle
reddish blotches on the skin. Its insidiousness lay in its affinity for nerves, eluding
detection by standard blood tests.
Mirabella was baffled as to how Leo had contracted Solace Stem. Judging by his
current state. the toxin was proliferating into a more advanced stage. Without
intervention, the outlook was grim.
The concoctions at her disposal were merely suppressants, not antidotes.
Crafting a cure was a complex task, exacerbated by the absence of proper
alchemical equipment. It was a headache, to say the least.
Massaging her temple, she eventually selected a vial that could offer temporary
control and exited the room.
Downstairs.
Shawn, about to retire to his room, halted at the sight of his daughter descending
the stairs. “Mira, you're still up?”
“Yep.” Mirabella glanced around the living room. “Has Leo gone to bed?”
Nodding. Shawn replied. “He just flew in and said he was beat. He’s probably
resting.”
“Then you should get some sleep too, Dad,” Mirabella suggested before turning
to head back. upstairs.
The entire back-and-forth took less than a minute.
Watching his daughter's retreating figure, Shawn stroked his chin, feeling a
twinge of discontent. Zach was enough trouble; now, Leo was back. Was a
simple, cozy family life of three too much to hope for?
The following morning.
Approaching the stairwell, Mirabella peered down to see Leo in the living room.
She paused. retreating to her room before reemerging with the vial she had
picked the previous evening.

Descending, she approached him with a polite greeting. “Morning, Leo.”
“Good morning. Mirabella,” Leo nodded slightly.
