Chapter 429:
“You're Joanna's brother. I'm not just going to stand by and watch you sink into despair without doing anything to
help. So there's no need for you to thank me.”
Norah couldn't bear to see Joanna looking unhappy, so helping to find evidence was just a simple matter for her.
Bryson downed the entire glass in an instant.
“If you ever need my help with anything, just say the word, all right?”
“Sure. I'll keep that in mind.”
After all, she was used to letting others handle the things that she didn’t want to deal with. She took a sip of the
liquor, tasting its strong flavor. She watched Bryson drink another full glass, his body swaying a bit.
“Here. Take this and eat it,” she said with a sigh, handing him a Mind Clearing Pill. “It'll relieve you of your
hangover.”
Bryson didn’t even look at it and swallowed it right away. Within five minutes, the dizziness was gone.

“lI can’t believe it works so well!” he remarked in surprise. In the business world, drinking was unavoidable. He
had long been used to feeling awful after drinking. The only reason why he drank so much today was to thank
Norah for her help.
Darwin's eyes lit up.
“Can you giveone, too?” he asked eagerly. He also wanted to know if the pill really worked. Earlier, he'd
been chatting and drinking so much that he lost count of how many glasses he had before he started feeling
nauseous.

Raina patted him on the shoulder. “Just cut down on the drinks next tand you'll be fine without the
medicine.”
She turned to Norah and smiled. “No need to give him any. I'll make sure he doesn’t overdo it.”
With those words from his wife, Darwin gave up and stopped pushing the matter.
Norah found it amusing and handed him one anyway.
“This isn’t your typical over-the-counter medicine for hangovers. It's more like a remedy for various knockout
drops. Hangover relief is just one of its effects.”
Hearing this, Darwin paused, his hand hovering near his mouth. If that was the case, wasn’t this pill far too
valuable for him to use it for such a trivial problem? Bryson looked a bit regretful.
“If it’s so valuable, you didn’t have to give it to me.”
Norah waved her hand dismissively. “Don’t worry about it. I've got plenty to spare. If you ever need hangover
remedy one, I'll make sfor you when I'm free.”
The recipe for the hangover remedy was relatively simple, using only common ingredients. It wouldn't take much
tto make a large batch.
Bryson had experienced the effects of the Mind Clearing Pill, and the sobering effect was immediate. He rubbed
his hands, looking interested.
“But wouldn't that be a bit of a hassle for you?”
Norah could see the eagerness in his eyes. “It's no big deal,” she said. “Just remember to pay for it. That's all.”
It was only because they were members of the Andrews family that she agreed so readily.

Darwin carefully put the pill away. Such a potent medicine should not be used just to relieve a hangover. He
turned to his son, whose eyes had regained their clarity, and gave him a stern look. He felt that it was such a
waste that his son had consumed the pill to sober up.
And it shocked him that Norah was surprisingly talented at making medicine. The ones she made worked really
well, too.
Bryson turned and met Darwin's gaze, feeling a shiver run down his back. Why was his father looking at him like
that?
As the dinner cto an end, Darwin brought up the main topic.
“Norah, we invited you to dinner tonight to show our appreciation for all that you've done for us,” he said, taking
a black card out of his wallet and sliding it across the table.
“This is a black card with unlimited credit. With this, you can get the best discounts in any of our family
industries.”
He looked at her intently, his tone serious. “This is what our family should give you in return. Please accept it.”
Joanna had no idea about this. But she had to admit, Norah had been a huge help to her family.
