"You... Who are you... Who are you?!" Sophie's eyes were wide with shock as she flailed her hands wildly in the air, her nails raking two deep scratches across Christopher's fair, handsface.

"You're not my son... My son, Christopher, would never be so cruel! He would never be this cruel!" Christopher knelt on one knee, his faceposed and resolute, as he watched his mother descend into madness.

He felt as if he had gone mad too—just a very quiet kind of madness.

Hearing themotion, two caregivers rushed over to restrain the trembling, struggling Sophie.

"Call the police... Call the police... He's a murderer... A murderer!" But who would believe the words of a late-stage Alzheimer's patient? Sophie's frantic cries finally died down as the caregivers escorted her away.

"Mr. Iverson... Please don't be upset. Madam Sophie isn't in her right mind anymore. Don't take her words to heart," Taylor continuedforting him, but seeing the distressing scene was heartbreaking enough. He could not imagine how much harder it must be for Christopher.

"How much longer... How much longer do we have to wait?" Christopher shut his eyes tightly, his breaths quickening with frustration. "He can wait, but my mother doesn't have tto spare!" Taylor bit on his lip and spoke softly. "Mr. Iverson, perhaps... Perhaps you should let Madam Sophie try this drug? Who knows, it might just work out by slucky chance?" "Absolutely not!" Christopher rejected the dangerous suggestion without hesitation. "The drug has only been in trials for less than six months, and it's already killed several people-healthy, living people! It's clearly potent and highly unstable! I can't... I can't let my mother take that risk!" "But right now, you have no other choice. You have to try anything that might save her!" Taylor couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out the diagnosis he'd overheard from the doctors. "The doctors said that if we continue with conservative, treatment, Madam Sophie has, at most... just six months left! Maybe even less!" O Christopher had expected this, but hearing it still felt like a blow to the back of his head, leaving him struggling to maintain hisposure.

"If that's the case, why not take a chance? If it could prolong her life, it's worth it!" At that moment, Taylor's phone rang.

He pulled it out, and his eyes suddenly widened in response.

"Mr. Iverson! There's been an incident!" Christopher's expression darkened as he pulled out his phone and checked Twitter. He saw a trending topic causing a stir online. "Human Drug Experiment!" A Twitter post from the official Savrow Daily account had gone viral, being reposted over a million times, After all, everyone in Savrow knew that the Salvador Corporation was one of the newspaper's major shareholders. l The Twitter post boldly declared that a mysterious blue pill, spreading like a virus in the black market, was being marketed as a medicine. However, in actuality, the pill was being secretly used for human drug experiments. Not only that, the Twitter post included a video showing a member of the Southern Star Syndicate violently reacting to the drug. The footage was incredibly disturbing.

Public outrage over the post was intense, causing the news platform to crash. The consequences were severe.

Taylor was stunned. His phone suddenly felt like it was burning a hole in his hand. "Savrow Daily must be out of their minds! How could they post that news publicly? Are they crazy or something?"
