“If it’s standard digoxin for her heart, a single sip won't harm a healthy thirty-year-old woman,” Garrett replied, his icy gaze locking onto hers like a vice. “Drink it.”

“That medication isn't digoxin, Mr. Weston,” Maya announced clearly. “I took a sample of the liquid from yesterday’s broken glass and had it tested at the university lab overnight.”
Madison gasped, her eyes bulging with sheer panic as she glared at Maya. “You stole my property?!”
“The lab report confirms the presence of high-concentration neuromuscular sedatives,” Maya continued, her voice echoing with absolute clarity. “It causes muscle weakness, loss of speech control, and temporary paralysis.”
