The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1764

Mirabella raised an eyebrow but didn't bother calling out the flimsy excuse. She could tell he wasn't up to any harm.

Just then, a nearby bodyguard unhooked a flask from his belt and handed it to Lockie. "Your Highness, it's time for your medicine."

Lockie eyed the flask, knowing full well it contained that intensely bitter herbal potion. His brows knitted tightly, but with a beautiful girl present, he accepted the flask without a fuss. He unscrewed the cap, tilted his head back, and downed the concoction in one go.

As soon as he finished, the bodyguard smoothly handed him a piece of candy, the kind usually reserved for kids. Lockie stared at the candy, feeling a wave of embarrassment wash over him. But he managed to keep his cool and took it, turning to Mirabella. "I've been unwell for a while and need to take medicine regularly."

Mirabella nodded understandingly. "Your condition does require herbal remedies."

She paused, her eyes landing on the flask, and asked, "Mind if I take a look at the medicine you’re drinking?"

Lockie handed the flask over to her. She opened it, took a quick sniff, and returned it with a knowing smile. Well, isn't this a small world?

"Is there something wrong with the medicine?" Lockie asked, noticing the curious expression on her face.

Mirabella simply smiled and said, "The doctor who prescribed this knows what they're doing."

Lockie was taken aback.

"If you keep taking this for six months, your health should improve a lot. You might not be as strong as some, but you've got another thirty or forty years in you, easy."
