Although Cian Channing was seriously injured and one leg was disabled, the fact remains that she attempted murder by drugging.
After recovering at the hospital, what awaited her was a lifetime imprisonment.
And the drugging incident completely enraged Eleanor Whittaker's grandfather, resulting in her expulsion from the family; she would no longer receive any assistance from them.
This is the nature of wealthy families, where familial ties are often shallow; once the family's interests are severely violated, one will be disowned and forbidden from receiving help from family members.
Her antidote is out of reach—without money, naturally, no one would assist her in developing an antidote.
Even with money, it's unlikely that an antidote could be developed in a short time.
She was given a blood transfusion at the hospital, temporarily preserving her life, but the transfusion would only last a week, meaning she would need another one after a week, or else death awaited her.
