    “I see. It’s a slow-acting poison that takes a long time to kick in but is extremely deadly. Have I got that


    right?” She sighedmentably. “I didn’t expect Lena to be that sort of person. Our family has always


    treated her very well, and she has worked many years for us.”


    Severin smiled and said, “Lena looks like an honest person, and she wouldn’t have understood. what


    she had been doing. She must’ve ced the incense under someone else’s instruction, and now that


    I’ve rid you of your poison, Lena will very likely meet the person who told her to do it. We just need to


    follow her to find out who’s the true culprit!”


    Zachariah gave Severin an enthusiastic thumbs up. “You truly are amazing, Mister Severin. I am fully


    convinced by your abilities, for you have a perceptive mind in addition to your excellent medical skills.


    You have my utmost admiration.”


    She finally had a realization. “Now I understand why Lena panicked and had such at frightened look


    when you yelled at her earlier. She wouldn’t have reacted like that if she did not do anything wrong!


    Now that I think about it, something is off about her reaction earlier!”


    “Mister Severin, when you say that, do you mean that the poison from the wooden chair will only be


    effective if mixed with the incense that Lena lights in my room every night? Will I be able to keep the


    chair and just avoid lighting any incense?” Zachariah said.


    He remembered Lena telling him a few months ago that there was a kind of incense that would. help


    him sleep, hence the reason she rmended it to Zachariah. He did not think too much. about it at


    the time, and he did feel a noticeable improvement in the quality of sleep after using it for a period. As a


    result, he continued to use it until the present day. Had it not been. for Severin’s help, he might well


    have died suddenly without ever knowing the cause of his death.


    Severin smiled wryly when he heard Zachariah’s words. “Are you that reluctant to part you’re your


    wooden chair? I understand that it’s a rare piece of workmanship that you cherish deeply, since the


    material is good and the carvings are detailed too. Unfortunately, you cannot use that wooden chair


    anymore. Take it out and burn it, and make sure to do it in the courtyard in front of everyone, especially


    Lena!”


    “I understand,” Zachariah said with a nod.


    “The incense won’t hurt you if the chair’s gone. You can continue to use it if you like!” Severin then


    added.


    “Not a chance! I’m traumatized by that incense now, and I wouldn’t dare to use it again!” Zachariah


    smiled bitterly.


    “Alright, I’m almost done here, so I should be heading home. Call me if there’s anything else you might


    need!” Severin then prepared to leave.


    “She, could you please send Mister Severin off?” Zachariah immediately said.


    “Sure thing!” She was overjoyed of course. Though Zachariah still did not want her to marry Severin,


    it was obvious that his attitude toward Severin had improved tremendously. With time, she believed that


    Zachariah would eventually ept Severin.

    She followed Severin with her hands behind her back and she peeked at Severin’s handsome profile


    from time to time as he walked out with her “Thanks, savior! I wouldn’t know what to do today if you


    weren’t around!”
