Chapter 3 - Maya Decides To Secretly Swap Out The Toxic Meds

She retrieved a concealed pouch from her father’s old medical kit, containing harmless organic vitamin supplements of identical color and shape.

Maya wiped down the tray with deliberate slowness, making sure her professional composure remained completely bulletproof.
