Aurora looked back and happened to notice that Roman did not seem well. But this was his residence.
"Roman, what's up? You don't look well," she asked deliberately.
Roman came to his senses and gulped. He pretended to act confused. "Mom, what are these things? Why do they resemble the prenatal medication that you used to take?"
"You know about that?" Aurora stared at him for a moment, her sharp eyes filled with resentment.
Roman held back the terror in his heart and obediently held onto her arm, saying, "I pay attention to anything related to you, Mom. I want to quickly help you catch the culprit who swapped out your medicine."
Aurora felt slightly better after hearing his explanation. She had noticed how obedient and thoughtful Roman was when she went to the orphanage back then. That was why she adopted and raised him.
She had watched him grow up all these years and understood what kind of person he was. He would not do anything that would harm her.
…
The next day, Jamie's report was ready. The pills were the poisonous drug that Camille had given her before, not Hera's prenatal medication.
Aurora sighed in relief. If they were the prenatal medication given by Hera, Roman would be the biggest suspect since the pills were discovered in his backyard. She wouldn't have been able to accept that he would do such a thing.
Aurora had no idea what Hera was trying to imply. She immediately took the test report and headed toward Youngworth Miracle Clinic to meet with Hera.
…
At that moment, Hera was treating patients in the consulting room. After finishing up with her current patient, it was Catherine's turn to treat patients.
Before returning to the western wing, Hera calmly called James, who was having a meeting with the managers of various departments.
He was taken aback when he noticed it was Hera calling. He had saved her phone number a long time ago, but it was her first time taking the initiative to call him.
