Frank nodded to confirm Vicky's words. "I already refined the drakeroot when your mom called me earlier."

Helen was disappointed, but there was nothing she could do either—there was no way to revert the pill back to the drakeroot.

Still, she simply resigned herself.

She was not particularly disappointed anyway since the drakeroot was not all that important.
