Chapter 821

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

Evadne was taken aback.

"I don't know the name of this medicine, but its composition is almost identical to a treatment for mental illness developed a year ago by the National Biomedical Research Institute. However, that drug was only announced to the public and hasn't officially been released yet. I'm not sure if this is the one they developed."

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."

At that moment, a casual knock on the door echoed.

"Mr. Chad?"

There, sitting in a wheelchair, was Chad alone outside the door, gracing her with a smile as fresh as a spring breeze, as he looked up at Evadne.
