?Chapter 1497:
These thoughts apanied her as she showered. Stepping out of the bathroom, exhaustion weighed on her. She sank into the bed and quickly drifted into a deep sleep.
The next day, Katelyn didn’t wake up untilte morning. She yawned heavily in the dining room, still sleepy but visibly refreshed and cheerful.
Sophia entered and raised an eyebrow at Katelyn’s messy yet happy appearance. “Looks like someone had an exhausting timest night.”
Katelyn merely offered Sophia a casual look. “I had ns to help you recuperate today, but you seem quite lively already,” Katelyn remarked.
Hearing that, Sophia stered on a cheerful grin. “Did you sleep well? If not, feel free to sleep more. Your well-being is paramount.”
Katelyn was momentarily at a loss for words. Since when had Sophia be so overly eager to please? Katelyn didn’t respond but focused on her meal.
After finishing, Katelyn turned to Sophia and announced, “Prepare yourself. I’ll being overter to assist in your recovery.”
Pulling out a piece of paper from her pocket, Katelyn handed it to Sophia, exining, “These are the guidelines you need to follow. Read them carefully.”
Sophia epted the note, slightly surprised. She had assumed Katelyn was only teasing. Was Katelyn truly serious about this after all these days?
Her face broke into a broad smile as she agreed, “Alright.”
For Sophia, regardless of Katelyn’s actual ability to cleanse her body of toxins, the attempt was a wee endeavor. With the note in hand, Sophia exited quickly, her swift steps betraying her joy.
Katelyn watched Sophia for a moment before turning away. Feeling somewhat exasperated by the need to initiate things herself, Katelyn let out a gentle sigh. She then began gathering the herbs that would be used in the detoxification process.

Once everything was prepared, Katelyn made her way to the courtyard to meet Sophia. Upon her arrival, she saw that Sophia had already set up everything as instructed in the note.
The setup included arge bathtub within the household. A pot filled with water was ced on the stove, the heat turned up high, with a servant standing nearby, keeping an eye on the heat.
Katelyn added the herbs to the boiling water, which began to emit a strong medicinal aroma that mingled with a touch of bitterness. The scent was overpowering and slightly nauseating from a distance. Just looking at it was enough to make one feel lightheaded.
Sophia wrinkled her nose at the scent, her brows knitting together. She turned to Katelyn and asked, “Are you sure this will actually work?”
Katelyn stopped stirring for a moment to face Sophia, replying, “Or perhaps you have another suggestion?”
