Chapter 832
With her maid in tow, Amelia arrived at Arcane Sanctum and quickly inquired about the price of the Evergreen
Pills. They were far from cheap-five silver coins each, and she needed eight of them. In the frigid weather, she
felt the sweat on her forehead and struggled to hold back tears, unable to make a
decision.
The shop assistants at Arcane Sanctum recognized her by now and were aware of her situation.
One of them, Paul, spoke up. “Madam Amelia, these Evergreen Pills are intended for women who are weak and
anemic after childbirth. If you're looking to replenish energy and blood, you can brew the medicine yourself,
which is much cheaper. Besides, one pill is usually sufficient for childbirth. There's no need to buy so many. It's
not like eight women are giving birth at the stime.”
Wiping away her tears, Amelia hurriedly asked, “One is enough? Really?”
“Absolutely. If you're still worried, you could buy two. The pill isn’t a guarantee for easy childbirth. It’s mainly for
those who are severely depleted. If the labor is prolonged and tiring, one pill can help give them the strength to

Amelia handed over the money. “Then, I'll take two. And please gettwo Snowdrop Pills as well,”

Paul shook his head sadly.

Amelia forced a smile, holding back her tears. “It's just how it is. We can’t even afford to call Sebastian anymore.
We can’t rely on the sprescription forever. We need to adjust the medicine according to her condition. When
we can afford Snowdrop Pills, we'll buy them, and if we can’t, there's nothing we can do.”
Paul fell silent and handed Amelia the medicine, advising her on how to take the Evergreen Pills.
He reiterated, “Make sure to space the doses at least four hours apart-don’t take two at the stIf the
fatigue is due to prolonged labor, one pill will suffice. But if there are other complications, like difficult labor or
heavy bleeding, this won't help. The extra pill can be taken two weeks after delivery.”
“I'll remember that. Thank you so much!” Amelia said as she left the shop, her maid by her side.
When she returned home, Amelia first administered the Snowdrop Pills to Rebecca before sending someone to
give the Evergreen Pills to Viola. She was genuinely afraid of Viola's unpredictable temperament and didn’t dare
to go in person. So, she gave detailed instructions on how to use the medicine to be passed along
The physician had already seen Rebecca but had only prescribed sremedies to help stabilize her condition.
The key lay in taking the Snowdrop Pills. Although it wasn’t tfor her to take them yet, Rebecca was feeling so
unwell that Amelia had no choice but to let her start early.
Seeing her daughter-in-law’s woeful expression, Rebecca's temper flared. “What's wrong with you now? You look
like you're mourning! I'm still alive!”
Amelia felt a swell of frustration but didn’t dare to retort.
Instead, she spoke softly. “Mother, Barrett has putin charge of the household, but there’s no money left in
the accounts. | just pawned all my jewelry and spent the last of the money on medicine. There's nothing left for
household expenses, and it’s tto pay the staff their monthly allowances. What are we going to do?”
“Didn’t you just pawn your jewelry? How is there no money left?” Rebecca asked, her displeasure evident.

for Viola, which weren't cheap-five silver coins each. The remaining money isn’t much, but our daily expenses
for food and lamps are also considerable. | was wondering if you or Viola might consider pawning sjewelry
so we would have money for emergencies?”
Rebecca was nearly speechless in disbelief, her anger flaring. “What did you just say? You wantto pawn my
jewelry? Are you trying to rebel? You think you can run this household while asking your mother- in-law to pawn
her jewelry?”
“Mother, please calm down,” Amelia begged as she knelt beside the bed. “I know times are tough now, but the
men will receive their salaries soon. Once they do, we'll have funds again. This is just a temporary solution. The
jewelry that can be pawned...”
Slap!
A powerful blow landed on Amelia’s face, leaving her momentarily stunned.
Having just taken her Snowdrop Pills, Rebecca was gradually regaining her strength. The slap, fueled by her
humiliation, was delivered with all her might.
“You can’t manage this household? Then, get out! Ill write you a letter of divorce and throw you out of our
family!”
