Dunstan was assured since Yolanda was around, so he went to the back and boiled swater.
It was another ten minutes when Maria finally woke up.
"Where am I?" She looked blankly at her surroundings only to realize that she was at a clinic.
"You passed out from food poisoning again," Darius replied worriedly.
"I don't know what you ate, but | told you to stop eating leftovers."
"I didn't!" Maria felt like she was wronged.
"The portion of the food we've been making at hrecently is just enough for us. There are no leftovers.
She added, "Also, | don't like snacks. | usually just eat fruits. Would | get food poisoning from eating fruits?"
"Maybe there could be remnants of pesticides on the fruits that weren't washed clean?" Dunstan walked in with a
mug of warm water and asked casually after hearing what Maria had said.

"That's impossible! I'm very particular about cleanliness. | would soak my fruits in starchy water for 30 minutes
and rinse them a few times before eating them."
Maria shook her head and sipped on the water, feeling a little confused.
"That's impossible. How did | get food poisoning?"
The remnants of pesticides on the fruits would cause food poisoning, but Yolanda had assessed Maria's
symptoms. It didn't look like the kind of food poisoning one would get from ingesting pesticide remnants.
Instead, it seemed more like she had eaten something with unknown ingredients. She also vaguely smelt a faint
scent of medicine on Maria.
"What medicine have you been eating recently, Mrs. Singer?"
"I'm not taking anything else besides the ones you've prescribed, " Maria replied.
"All in all, please try to be more mindful of your diet these few days."
After Yolanda saw that Maria was fine, she gave Dunstan the task of closing the clinic so she could eat with
Gavin.
"Don't rush, Mr. and Mrs. Singer. Please rest and leave when you're ready.
"If you're hungry, you can order takeaway, Dunstan, and put it on the clinic's tab."
"It's fine, I'm not hungry." Dunstan waved his hand carelessly.
"You can leave first, Dr. Henderson."
Then, he stole a glance at Gavin, who was nearby. He was the Savage family's prized, youngest son, and Yolanda
had gotten her hands on him!
The admiration Dunstan had for Yolanda deepened as he watched the both of them leave the clinic.
Yolanda and Gavin had just gotten in the car when she received a call from Melina.
"Hello?" Yolanda answered the phone.
"Are you free for a chat now, Ms. Henderson?" Melina's tone was cautious.
"What is it?"
"I have something | need to report to you."
Melina was now very respectful toward Yolanda. If she could worship the ground Yolanda walked on, she
definitely would.
"We had sexpired pharmaceutical ingredients last season, and according to our protocol, they were
supposed to be destroyed. But because of Gregory's greed, he sold those pharmaceutical ingredients to
Henderson Group with a very low price and also received commission off of it."
"Henderson Group?"
Yolanda was a little surprised. Harold had always been doing real-estate-related business, so why would he
suddenly be interested in medicine?
"I know that Henderson Group belongs to your family. That's why I'm calling you to tell you about this."
Melina paused and added, "I've gotten someone to investigate the matter. Henderson Group recently started a
subsidiary selling health supplements. | heard its production department had gotten an unofficial formula to
make a cognitive-enhancing, energy-boosting health supplement pill."
