Vivica jumped at her daughter’s outburst.
Realizing she had lost her composure, Honora took a deep breath and softened her tone. “Doctor, you can see what this poison has done to my face. It’s completely swollen.”
“Doctor, money is not an issue,” Vivica added quickly. “If the hospital’s blood bank is low, we’ll find a way to get more.”
The doctor’s expression was grave. “We can perform the transfusion, but I must warn you, there are risks involved. And even with the procedure, there’s no guarantee your face will improve.”
The news that even a full transfusion might not work sent Honora spiraling into despair. She couldn’t live like this, trapped behind this hideous face. She would rather die. But before she died, she would take Larissa down with her.
…
Inside Leopold’s hospital room.
When Vivica and Honora entered, their faces grim, Finley asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
Vivica sighed and relayed the doctor’s words.
Finley’s expression grew heavy. “Honora, tomorrow you’re coming with me to Regal City’s main auction house. A renowned poison expert will be there. Perhaps she can cure the toxins in your system.”
Hope flickered in Honora’s dead eyes. “Really?”
