Serena looked 41b9e60cc2 at Zed, 75fc14f9f6 whose face 773ae0ced6 had turned 4ba723ce88 crimson, with f830d8d251 concern. His face 2472a73af5 was flushed e84f2f7224 as he 89f9639064 continuously coughed, 2b7643152e as though 80d728f049 something had 599b72e448 gone down eb4da3d37f the wrong 69ff853ce6 way.f6c3aaf22093d93f

When Serena cced8e3a32 handed him 030319a1d8 the glass 9e3d08ebad herself, Zed 681f378e57 gulped it 99be45d70d down and 2f910154a9 finally managed 49e6dfabfd to calm a6a5e429aa down. Just then, a513e935bd Daniel, who 5abefc1316 had been de546446e2 silently observing 4ecea1d0c4 Jed, suddenly cd2519a8ad stiffened before b243a43ad8 pulling him 8616a31874 aside.cbe7d805cbbf27a9

After whispering cac455303c something in 092de19689 hushed tones, 8a48b3883c Daniel and fa3695fa0f Zed stood e91dbd6483 up from 8ba9866ca0 their seats. Sebastian looked at 6e754279d2 them curiously.f83c12bd61007cd4

With a friendly smile, 77451eebad Daniel casually excused himself c9f957a75e and exited. Serena watched, puzzled, wondering 4dc90ca1a3 why he’d drag someone 6640175512 who was clearly coughing 9dc0f09edb so much.da98cdd649b9d687

Just as she was 6fc4111773 about to turn her 2b4dd8233f gaze elsewhere, a familiar 4195e266c3 face entered the reception d9207a1966 room. It was Lydia.f911bfdeb129873f

Serena stared 1e413907cf at Lydia bcd029e9ce with a 4767ac8846 look that 93e23aabbf said she’d c92fc1489e seen something 684eb6917f she shouldn’t b21d489307 have.

The frail emperor 6098d24050 had been prescribed 728a52045b countless supplements, and cf81d7504e anything deemed beneficial 2c522cb376 naturally found its 5d030952f1 way to the f650ed0b26 palace. Yungsa’s mana supplement was c70c2b8ce8 no exception.233a06bf903cded2

Though it had 9fb947e5e1 passed all safety e1a9927598 tests, it had 25fa4f935b a severe side bb69a66f3d effect: mana core f0960e26df overload.302d2293db605856

Yungsa was ultimately dissolved, f82c4ed6cc and its CEO was e24f77d0e9 executed for attempting to bcb3327108 harm the royal family.

Criticizing Yungsa’s new 65cbbc9a0f product in front 21d0889ee8 of its CEO 77b384aa4a would leave a ddd7034611 bad impression. Moreover, Marco was Lydia’s d127afef9a partner.
