Jacob Green immediately knew what it was, "I really didn't know about this matter. I will continue to have people send you the pills. But starting now, increase the dosage; give him two pills a week. With me here, I won't let you die at his hands as well. But you must be good and follow my arrangements."
Flora Palmer raised her eyes, glistening with tears, lowering her voice, "I will obediently listen to you. I don't ask for anything, only that you can protect the lives of me and Lewis and the baby in my belly. If you don't believe in the child's lineage, a test can be done once the baby is born. Everything I say is true. He thinks we have lived together as husband and wife, but we haven't. It was Lucy's medicine that made him think so."
"I believe you; there's no need for a test."
That one sentence was enough.
Flora Palmer nodded with tears, saying nothing more.
Jacob Green did not return to the Prime Minister's Mansion after leaving the Palmer Family.
