Clara found Jerrell's behavior utterly bizarre—was he treating her like some rebellious child who refused medicine?
But... she didn't have a damn clue what these mystery pills were for! What's more, she wasn't even sick!
Asking too many questions would seem fussy, yet swallowing them blindly would be completely irresponsible—both to herself and her unborn child.
Noticing her hesitation, Lori flashed a reassuring smile. "Come on, you're not actually doubting Jerrell, are you? He might act all playful, but his medical skills are impressive. I always go straight to him for minor ailments."
With that endorsement, Clara couldn't refuse outright. A clever idea struck her—she'd put on an act, placing the pill in her mouth with just a sip of water, then discreetly dispose of it later.
