Chapter 821

Commissioned by Evadne, Chasel immediately tested the medication sent by Chad upon his return.

To their surprise, the drug was astonishingly effective. Aside from causing the patient to feel lethargic and sleepy, it posed no significant harm to the human body.

Evadne was taken aback.

Chasel sighed deeply, "Luckily, this medicine doesn't seem to have any serious issues and it's helping Marilla's condition. Otherwise, administering an unreleased drug to patients would seem a bit like using them as guinea pigs."
