David's eyes lit up as soon as he heard about the ancient remedy. "A lost elixir?" he asked eagerly.

Mirabella nodded softly. "I think it's called the Lotus Elixir."

"Lotus Elixir?" David echoed, holding his phone with a puzzled look. After mulling it over for a while, he shook his head. "I've never heard of it."

The Pharmaceutical Association might have a treasure trove of old texts, but that didn't mean they had every single ancestral recipe. It was normal for some remedies to slip through the cracks.

Meanwhile, Paul, who was nearby, perked up at the mention of the Lotus Elixir.

Unaware of Paul's curiosity, David continued chatting with Mirabella, "Did you say where this medicine is being sold online?"

"I just heard about it," Mirabella replied slowly, as other students began to fill the staircase. She continued her way downstairs.

"Alright, I'll have someone look into it," David nodded, ending the call after a moment.

Lotus Elixir, Lotus Elixir... David murmured to himself, then turned to his assistant. "When you get back, see if you can find out where this Lotus Elixir is being sold online."

"Got it," the assistant nodded.

Paul's curiosity got the better of him, and he asked David, "President, this Lotus Elixir, is it a medicine? The name doesn't sound like the usual herbal stuff."

David pocketed his phone. He'd been getting along with Paul lately, so he saw no reason to keep things under wraps. "It's supposed to be an ancient remedy, but I've never come across it myself."

As for its effects, he was in the dark, but since Mirabella had mentioned it was an ancient remedy, it seemed legit.

Paul toyed with the cigarette holder at his waist for a moment before saying, "President, I won't be able to join you for dinner tonight; I've got some things to handle."

David just nodded, understanding that everyone had their own stuff going on. "No worries, business comes first. We can always grab dinner another time."

Paul gave a slight nod in agreement.

After hanging up, Mirabella felt she'd accomplished what she set out to do and tucked her phone back into her pocket. She quickly left the academic building and made her way to the school's entrance.

Atlas had been waiting patiently at the entrance for quite a while. When he saw Mirabella, he called out, "Miss Mira," and respectfully opened the passenger door for her.

Once in the car, Atlas started the engine and began updating her as they drove away from Prestige College. "The Cunningham family should be returning all of your assets in the next couple of days."

"Alright," Mirabella replied, unfazed. "Thanks for handling that, Atlas."

Atlas gave a modest cough. "Just doing my job."

He then briefed her on Kitty's situation. After listening, Mirabella turned her gaze from the window and said softly, "Make sure they don't bother my mom again."

"I understand," Atlas nodded.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the villa. As they got out, Atlas picked up a document folder from the passenger seat and followed Mirabella.

"Oh, and Miss Mira, Grady's out of the country right now. Before he left, he asked me to give you these documents," Atlas said, handing her the folder.

Mirabella eyed the thick folder, unsure of its contents. She didn't take it immediately and instead asked cautiously, "What's in it?"
