After drinking a part of it, he looked at Maria. It was as if he just drank a normal soup.

“Trust me. It might not be very tasty, but it doesn't taste bitter. Drink some first, and you'll know." This time, Anthony's tone became firmer, as if there was a trace of authority in it. He also wouldn't let this go until Maria obeyed him.

Finally, Maria took the cup from Anthony's hand. But there was still an evident hesitation on her face as she pouted.

Then, her lips eventually touched the rim, and she carefully took a small sip.

Immediately after, her eyes slightly widened. To her surprise, the horrible-looking tonic tea was not bitter at all.

In fact, although its herbal aroma was quite strong, it tasted just like normal tea, and there was even a faint sweet aftertaste. Without any more reluctance, Maria drank up the whole cup in one go.

She felt the tonic tea pass through her throat and into her stomach. After finishing all of it, Maria realized that she was more awake and energetic.

The tonic tea was so amazing, and its effects were fast.

She had never taken anything before that actually alleviated the symptoms of her narcolepsy to this extent.

Maria couldn't help blurting out, “Wow. This is really good. I may want to drink it every day from now on."

Hearing such an unexpected response, Jack, who was responsible for making the special tonic tea for Maria earlier, dropped his jaw and almost stumbled down.

Of course, he heard it right. Maria did say that she wanted to drink it every day. But at the back of his mind, he thought that it wasn't possible.

This was something Anthony bought from a medical expert at a very high price.

In fact, the price of each package, which could only make a single bowl of tonic tea, was already as high as fifty thousand dollars.

Jack started to calculate in his mind. If Maria drank a bowl of this expensive tonic tea per day... It would cost Anthony over a million dollars in just a month. That was such a huge sum of money.

“Jack, order more."

However, Jack was more surprised when Anthony said this without any hesitation.

“O-okay. I will, Mr. Wilson." Jack nodded, but there was a slight frown on his face.

He was aware how wealthy his boss was. But this was his first time seeing Anthony spend money this way.

It was at that moment that Maria regained her senses, remembering that this tonic tea was only offered to her by Anthony.
