Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 539

The next morning, Martha arrived at Catherine's palace, and found that the servants had cleared out most of her belongings.
The once magnificent palace was now almost empty.
After Catherine went mad in the hall, many ministers demanded that King Ducasse execute his own mother.
However, King Ducasse could not bring himself to do it and instead chose to send Catherine to a mental institution abroad.
Although Catherine did not die in the end, in Martha's view, she had received the punishment she deserved.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly as she looked around Catherine's bedroom.
The servants were still busy packing Catherine's belongings, preparing to throw away everything related to Catherine.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling emotional.
Maybe Catherine would never lead such a good life in the future.
Just as she was about to leave Catherine's bedroom, she glanced sideways at a pile of medicines in a corner.
She frowned slightly, walked over with some doubts, and reached out to pick up the medicines.
Without exception, there were no sticky notes or labels on those medicine bottles.
She walked over and picked up one bottle before smelling it curiously.
To her surprise, it emitted an unpleasant bitter smell mixed with sourness that made her want to vomit upon inhaling it. She couldn't fathom how Catherine managed to swallow such things down.
Martha opened several more bottles and each had its unique scent which only deepened her confusion about what they were used for. She turned around and asked one servant nearby,
"What are these medicines for?"
"Lady Martha, these are the medicines that Catherine Queen Dowager has been taking," said the maid who was serving by Catherine's side.
Martha looked at the maid with confusion and repeated, "The medicines that Catherine Queen Dowager takes?"
"Yes," nodded the maid. She respectfully lowered her head to explain to Martha-
"I have been following Catherine Queen Dowager for years and know that she suffers from insomnia, occasional illnesses, headaches, nightmares and so on. These medicines are often used by her to control her illness."
"When Catherine Queen Dowager is seriously ill, she even goes crazy, only this medicine can ease her symptoms and help her sleep normally without any headache."
Martha didn't think much of it when she heard this. She just nodded slightly before turning around to put the medicine bottle back in its place.
When the maid saw these medicine bottles, she suddenly remembered the terrifying scenes every time Catherine fell ill. Her body trembled as she couldn't help but sigh emotionally.
"Speaking of which, these medicines are really miraculous. Every time Catherine takes them, she will return to normal."
If it weren't for these medicines, those servants might have been subjected to some kind of torture.
The maid had heard that when Catherine Queen Dowager hadn't taken any medication before, she had killed someone in a fit of rage.
Thinking of this, the maid trembled slightly with fear.
Fortunately, Catherine Queen Dowager had faced justice; otherwise, the servants like them wouldn't know how long they would continue living in fear.
Initially, Martha wasn't too concerned, but now after hearing all this, she narrowed her eyes slightly, having some doubts about these medications not being quite right.
She thought inwardly, "These medications seem off."
She turned around asking, "You just said that when Catherine Queen dowagers falls ill, taking those medications will restore her to normal?"
