“Fine, we'll talk properly tomorrow.” With that, Richard leaped out of the window. Arthur frowned, but he didn’t give Richard another look as if he knew that the man wouldn‘t fall to his death.

Arthur didn’t feel anything weird about himself these days, but everyone around him noticed the changes in him.

He had becmore indifferent, and even when faced with things he should be angry about, he simply responded calmly without much fluctuation in emotion.

Richard went back to his room and rested his head on his own arm, but he couldn't fall asleep despite his fatigue. He still felt that the matter with Arthur was of great importance, and he had to investigate this in order to find out what caused his best friend to act so coldly.

In the morning, Richard purposely went to the villa for breakfast. Even though it was a bit shameless, he still sat opposite Arthur and studied him with an unabashed stare.

Arthur simply swept an indifferent glance over him and continued his breakfast in elegance, undisturbed.

“You're here, Richard,” said Martha as she cover and greeted.

“Hello, Grandma. Long tno see,” responded Richard, returning the greeting politely.

“Long tno see, indeed! You're still handslike always,” Martha praised before she continued to ask, “Is your grandfather still in good health?” “Yes, he’s still up and about.” Martha nodded, then looked toward Arthur. “Artie, why don’t you take Richard on a walk after breakfast? You must have a lot to catch up on.” “| still have smatters to attend to. | don‘t have tfor him.” Arthur unexpectedly declined the suggestion.

Richard felt like his heart had been stabbed as he said to Martha, “It's okay, Grandma. I'm used to doing things alone.” “Chere, Richard. | have something to ask you about,” Martha called him over to a wing at the side of the building.

Richard also hastily got up and followed. Martha looked at him worriedly and said, “Richard, did you notice anything wrong with my grandson? | feel like he has completely changed after coming back this time." “Yes! | noticed that too, Grandma.” “I wonder what happened to him; he acts as if he doesn’t care about family anymore. He doesn’t even look excited about his wedding, and he just treats it like a job he’s supposed to do. | don‘t understand him at all.” “Grandma, when did this change happen?” “The day after he cback. When he chome, he still huggedhappily and acted like a spoiled child, but now, it seems like he can’t even stand it when | speak more than two sentences. Oh, dear!” Martha was also heart-broken.

“Doesn‘t Arthur realize that himself?” “He seems fine, but also unusual at the stime. | even asked him to see a doctor, but the doctor couldn‘t find anything wrong with him either. He just said that Arthur has had a change in personality, and his emotions and feelings have toned down. He's in good health, and there’s nothing wrong in that aspect.” “Can you get the butler to givea copy of Arthur's itinerary when he comes back? I'll look into it.” Richard was determined to carry out the investigation.

“Ill leave it to you.” Martha was also terribly worried. Her grandson had turned into a cold and aloof person, and she was anxious about it.

Meanwhile, in the laboratory, Johnny was also gathering data on Arthur's recent emotional changes. In the end, he found out that his medicine had destroyed Arthur's nervous system as a side effect, robbing the man of his emotions.

Something was wrong with Arthur's emotional mechanism, but Johnny‘s wife and daughter were still in the dark about this as they were still rejoicing over the wedding.

Johnny thought that he should observe for a while longer, hoping that these symptoms would heal with time. He couldn‘t offer a better treatment, after all.

Nonetheless, Johnny knew that if his daughter married Arthur, he wouldnt have to worry about funds for his laboratory anymore. He could make the best use of this laboratory and invent even more wondrous things than this. By then, he would be famous all over the world.

Thus, out of concern for his own prestige, he decided not to cure Arthur. He could treat the man as a research subject so that more observations could be carried out.
