Chapter 200 “Mirabella, what brings you to the hospital?”
Collins was in for a routine prescription pickup and to check on a pal, but bumping into Mirabella was a curveball. Hospitals aren't exactly social hubs like malls, so he gave her the once-over before asking with genuine concern, “Are you feeling okay, Mirabella?”
Mirabella nodded politely at Collins. “I’m fine. Just visiting a classmate’s family member who’s under the weather.” “Gotcha,” Collins said with a grin. “Heading home now?” “Yep.”
“Perfect timing—I’m about to take off, too. Mind if | give you a lift?” Collins offered warmly. Such a lovely young lady shouldn’t wander home alone-it was not safe.

“Where did you get this medication?” asked the elder, none other than Nikolai, who had previously appraised scents for James. He and Dr. Ray were old friends and had run into Collins while discussing some business.
Collins‘ gaze landed on the pill in Nikolai’s hand, pausing before he replied, “A friend gave it to me.”
At that, Nikolai’s excitement intensified. “Does your friend have a background in pharmacology? Could you introduce us?” Watching this unfold, Dr. Ray was taken aback by Nikolai’s fervor-it was a side of his longtime
