Chapter 74 Quiet Ride
“Give her small sips,” Seraphina said. “Slowly.”
Victor glanced at the bottle in his hand and nearly choked.
What the hell?

Wasn’t this Calmia Tonic, the one that had been driving every major auction house and underground market insane lately?
This stuff was no joke. Its effects were brutal in the best way, especially for long-term chronic heart conditions and sudden cardiac episodes.
At critical moments, it could save a life.
A bottle this small went for two to three million. Scalpers flipped it for five or six million without blinking
That wasn’t even the main issue.
The real question was, how did Seraphina have this?
Did she buy it herself? Or did she keep it on hand because of her medical background, saving it specifically for patients who needed it most?
Victor’s mind short-circuited.
That was generosity on a ridiculous level.
Saving lives. No strings attached. She was basically an angel.
By the time he snapped out of it, Victor was staring at Seraphina with pure awe, admiration written all over his face.
Cassian’s eyes narrowed the moment he saw the small black bottle, a slow, knowing smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
So that explained it.
That day at the auction, when she kept appearing near him again and again.
There was a very real chance she’d been the one in the private suite competing with him for the Lunaria Core.
Interesting.
He hadn’t expected the girl to be this capable. Not just a miracle doctor, but someone with serious backing.
Calmia Tonic was legendary in the pharmaceutical world. People waited years just for the chance to meet the person behind it.

And here she was handing it out without hesitation Looks like he d packed up something preless
Cassian reached out and ruffled her hair clearly pleased. You did great
Seraphina paused What is wrong with you now?
Cassian only smiled at her, the look unreadable
Seraphina sighed and let it go. Soon, the pulmonary specialist team arrived and assessed the child’s condition Based on the current vitals, they put together a tailored treatment plan.
Crating
First, stabilize oxygen saturation Then control the infection. Once all indicators were within range, they could move forward with heart surgery
With everything arranged, they finally left the hospital
It was late and everyone was hungry There happened to be a late-night food district nearby, so they planned to grab something quick
Seraphina had been running on almost no sleep these past few days while developing the Lunaria Pill As the car moved steadily along her eyelids slowly fell shut
Victor noticed through the rearview mirror that she’d fallen asleep
What shocked him even more was watching Cassian gently lift her head and let it rest against his shoulder
Cassian even adjusted his collar lowered hus shoulder and leaned slightly so she’d be more comfortable.
He looked down at her sleeping face then, without realizing it, reached out and lightly brushed her forehead: her temple her cheek and finally her chin
It hit straight in the chest Up front Victor’s eyes nearly left his face
Dude what happened to your whole clean-freak thing? Does that just go out the window when its Seraphina? Unreal Seriously shameless
Suddenly the car skidded slightly
Seraphina lurched forward, but Cassian caught her instantly pulling her into his arms He patted her back gently: calming her until she relaxed again and stayed asleep
Victor’s heart nearly jumped out of his chest. That was on him. He shouldn’t have let his attention drift
When he glanced up again, the rearview mirror reflected a look that felt like knives aimed straight at him
Yeah. No doubt about it. Mr. Drayven’s in deep.
Looks like he’d better stay firmly on Seraphina’s good side from now on
