The ugly red marks that crisscrossed her forehead were gone!
Moreover, the red marks on the rest of her face had become noticeably lighter, without the obvious bumps, as if a child had been naughty and used a red paintbrush to draw them on.
Her face, now, still did not look too good, but it was no longer as hideous as it had been at first.
After a brief moment of dumbfoundedness, Freya quickly lifted up the clothes on her left arm, and the ugly red marks on her left arm were nowhere to be found!
Freya looked at herself in the mirror in a daze. She did not expect that after she had jumped down into the insect pit, she had not been bitten to death by those horrible insects, but had been blessed by the disaster, and those ugly marks had mostly faded away.
In the past, when she had prepared medicine for her face, she had always gone for the idea of detoxification, but had never thought of fighting poison with poison.
Little did she know that the best way to cure her face would be to fight poison with poison!
Now that she had the thought process, as long as she could leave this hellhole, she would soon be able to cure her face!
The improvement of her face made Freya only have a brief moment of elation.
What she was most worried about now was Alistair's safety.
Perhaps, Alistair would not be in fear of his life anytime soon, but what about his psyche?
If Helen kept on torturing him with those cruel methods, he would definitely become even more self-absorbed!
As soon as she thought of Alistair, Freya's heart felt so painful that she couldn't breathe, and she pressed her heart hard, but the pain continued unabated.
No! She had to see her Alistair quickly!
"Miss Stahler, I haven't been properly introduced, my name is Dora, and from now on, I'll be replacing Mandy and looking after you by your side." Just when she was lost in her own thoughts, Dora carried the medicine and walked right up to Freya.
Freya really didn't want to take anything from Caelan's place, but her body was the essence of the revolution, and if she stayed sickly, she wouldn't be able to save her Alistair.
Even though the smell of this medicine made her want to vomit, she thought about it and picked up the bowl of medicine in front of her and drank the contents in one go.
"Tell Caelan! I want to see Alistair!" Putting down the pills, Freya said to Dora in as calm a tone as she could manage.
"Helen is no good! She's always hurting my Alistair! Caelan can't give my Alistair to her! She'll get my Alistair killed!"
"Miss Stahler, you really mustn't get so worked up! Dr. Lister said that you can't have violent ups and downs with your emotions! You have to take good care of your health."
After a pause, Dora then spoke, "Moreover, your child is in Dr. Helen's hands, you really don't have to worry about it. Dr. Helen is a great person, she is so nice, she would never hurt an innocent child!"
As soon as Dora's words left her mouth, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Freya thought it was Caelan coming over, and her nerves, instantly, tightened up.
She didn't want to let anyone outside in, but Dora had already run briskly to the door and pulled it open.
Seeing Helen standing in the doorway, Dora's sweet face held a distinct surprise, "Dr. Helen, what brings you here?"
"Dora, I have something I want to say to her." Dr Helen spoke lightly.
