Chapter 1492 A Miracle To Be Alive

After a while, Olivia looked at Madison with a puzzled look.

The woman had too many health problems.

There wasn't a single healthy organ inside her body, especially her liver and kidneys, which were almost failing. Her whole body had accumulated nearly ten kinds of poison.

With such a condition, it was already a miracle for her to be alive.

No wonder she looked so sickly.

How could a healthy person like her accumulate so much poison in her body?

Joseph saw Olivia's serious expression and asked, "What's wrong? Is her body suitable for ovulation induction?"

Olivia glanced at Madison and saw the latter's expression remain unchanged as she withdrew her arm calmly without even looking at Olivia. It was as if she didn't care about her health.

"Her liver and kidneys are failing, and several poisons have invaded her internal organs. With her current condition, she can't take the ovulation injections," Olivia advised.

Joseph was somewhat surprised because he didn't expect Olivia to tell all that just by taking Madison's pulse.

He asked, "Does the poison in her body affect ovulation?"

Olivia was also surprised to see that Joseph showed no signs of astonishment. Did Joseph already know about Madison's physical condition, so he wanted to use her master's artificial uterus?

She looked at him and explained, "It's not about affecting ovulation, but the eggs she produced can't be used. Even if we manage to give birth to a child, the child will be unhealthy."

Joseph asked, "What if we remove the poison?"

Olivia asked, "Mr. Joseph, do you know what kinds of poison Miss Houghton has been poisoned with?" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Joseph glanced at Madison with a pained expression. "I have a general idea."

With pursed lips, Olivia suggested, "Then, we can give it a try. But detoxification is basically using poison to counter poison, so you must prescribe the right medicine. Miss Houghton's health cannot withstand any errors."

Feeling impatient, Joseph asked, "I understand. So, she can't have the ovulation injection now, right?"

Olivia replied, "Yes, for the sake of having a healthy baby, detoxification must come first."

Joseph said, "Okay, you can go back now. I'll come and look for you once we're done."

Olivia nodded but turned back to look at Madison before leaving.

There was still no expression on her face, but her eyes were fixed on Olivia.

…

At night, chains clanking echoed in a dark prison cell, followed by the door opening. A man walked in carrying a lunch box and threw it on the ground. He sounded displeased. "Hurry up and eat. Do you think going on a hunger strike will change anything? Don't think about leaving alive once you're here."

A woman was curled up in the dark corner, her hands and feet chained with iron chains, ignoring the man's words.

The man seemed dissatisfied with the woman's attitude and took two steps toward her before kicking her in the back. "D*mn it! Can't you make a sound to show whether you're alive or dead?"

However, the woman still didn't move and kept her back to him.

The man became even more furious. "F*ck. Do you think I'm being nice to you?"

As he spoke, he bent down to grab the woman's collar.

Unexpectedly, before his hand could touch her, the woman moved. Her hand moved incredibly fast, and the iron chains on her wrists swiftly wrapped around the man's neck, choking him.

The man struggled to breathe but couldn't break free, no matter how hard he tried. His flailing hands and feet eventually attracted the attention of the patrolling guards outside, and someone soon noticed something unusual in this prison cell.

Several big men rushed in, punching and kicking the woman. Throughout the ordeal, the woman never let go or even cried out in pain.

When they finally managed to rescue the man from the woman's grip, he had already stopped breathing.

The others spent a long time performing emergency resuscitation on the man.

After barely regaining his breath, he met the woman's gaze and was so frightened that his body was covered in a cold sweat. That woman was truly terrifying.

He didn't dare say anything and hurriedly crawled out of the cell.

With this example, the others didn't dare to provoke her and quickly left the cell, closing the door behind them.
