Aurelia's gaze grew hazy as tears cascaded down her cheeks.
The woman handed her a small vial, continuing, "Find Leopold and sneak this into his coffee. Then he'll never be able to harm you again." Outside the cabin, the female assassin had rotten luck, bumping into the overpowered Leopold while on the run.
With a single punch, he knocked her out cold.
Yuna cuffed her and handed her over to other bodyguards.
"Where's Aurelia?" asked Leopold.
"Mrs. Stirling is in her room." Leopold returned to the cabin to find Aurelia standing at the door, holding a steaming coffee.

"Waiting for me?" "Yes," she nodded. "I made you some coffee." Leopold took the coffee, opened the door, and together they entered.
As evening approached, the captain announced an emergency that required the cruise ship to dock at the nearest port.
Whispers of Mr. Leopold's sudden illness spread among the passengers.
The medical room was heavily guarded by bodyguards while doctors attempted to resuscitate Leopold.
"What exactly happened to Leopold? How could he fall ill so suddenly?" Tanya wore a mask of concern.
"The specifics are unclear," Kevin replied.
Megan's mind raced with worry. Could it be the Boss' doing? With her child yet to be born, would it still inherit if something happened to Leopold? Lana and Aurelia sat together. Aurelia put an arm around Luna’s shoulder, comforting her in a low voice, "Leopold's a tough cookie. He'll pull through." Arnold, accompanied by William and Skyler, hurried over.
"How's Leopold?" "He's being treated in the medical room," Aurelia whispered.
"Did Leopold get poisoned? Let me see him. | might be able to help with an antidote," Skyler said anxiously.
"The crooked hypnotist must have poisoned Uncle Leopold," William clenched his fists, vowing revenge.
The door to the medical room opened, and the doctor emerged. "I've just pumped Mr. Leopold's stomach. He's doing a bit better but is still unconscious." Kevin instructed, "Everyone should head back. We'll stay with Mr. Leopold. Once we reach port, we'll take him straight to the hospital." The crowd dispersed as the sky dimmed.
A nurse approached with a cart. "I need to put an IV on the patient." The bodyguard opened the door.
The nurse entered the observation room, looking at the unconscious man on the bed. A sly smile crept across her lips, hidden behind her mask. "Oh, such a handsome man. What a pity." After hearing the doctor had improved Leopold's condition by pumping his stomach, she grew concerned that the poison wasn't lethal enough. She came to increase the dosage and ensure his demise.

As she readied the syringe, she felt a gun suddenly pressed against her head.
The ship docked, and a team of medical staff rushed aboard, quickly carried the patient off the ship, and put him into an ambulance.
Everyone on deck had witnessed the scene.
Lana followed the crowd, and Megan tried to join them, but Kevin stopped her. "Ms. Lanacan go stay with Mr.
Leopold. The others should stay onboard.." Megan was livid. "I'm his wife!" "That's Mr. Leopold's order," Kevin retorted coldly.
Aurelia approached. "Notify us immediately if anything happens." "Will do," Kevin nodded and disembarked.
William stood on the deck, watching the ambulance drive away, his eyes filled with concern. "Mommy, Uncle Leopold will be okay, right?" "Yes," Aurelia stroked his hair. "Don't worry. Uncle Leopold will be back before you know it." She turned to see Tanya standing not far away.
Nobody knew what Tanya was thinking in her mind. But she wasn't hoping for Leopold's recovery, was she?
