Chapter: 862
Mitchel shook his head, disappointing Ariana's expectations.
"I'm afraid I don't possess that knowledge yet."
Ariana felt lost again. How was that possible? Shouldn't they have a clear understanding of the medication's target?
Mitchel continued, unveiling another Layer of complexity, “Azamentum is a proprietary creation of Mercy Hospital, withheld from the public market. Acquiring some internal information on it necessitated certain clandestine measures, consuming a considerable amount of time."
Ariana had not anticipated the intricate web surrounding a mere vial of medication. It also wasn't something she expected to have to do with Mercy Hospital.
On top of it all, the mention of Mercy Hospital roused a clouded state in her mind.
Mercy Hospital was also the facility where Helen was treated. But Theodore had unfettered access to BRD Group's private hospital, which exclusively treated a select group of A-listers and the ultra-wealthy.
Though the Anderson family possessed prominence, they were far from attaining the stature that warranted access to Mercy Hospital. Yet, somehow, Theodore had secured their proprietary product?!
Now, Ariana's memory resurfaced, recalling instances at Mercy Hospital where the doctors showed all their respect to Theodore.
Theodore's ties to Mercy Hospital raised eyebrows!
Ariana's mind turned into a Labyrinth of confusion as she grappled with the tangled mess before her. It was as if a whirlwind had swept in, bringing together a motley crew of unrelated individuals and circumstances.
Lost amidst this intricate web, Ariana found herself at a loss on how to navigate the situation.
Just as she was entangled in her thoughts, Mitchel interjected once more, his tone serious as he said, "Unraveling the specific symptoms this drug targets will take time, but its primary ingredients, cyproheptadine II and cyproheptadine III, possess a calming effect."
Mitchel continued, his words carrying weight, “Although we are currently uncertain about the precise ailments this medication aims to address, similar drugs are typically employed to combat common illusions or hallucinations induced by toxic agents in the market."
Illusions or hallucinations? These words caused Ariana's heart to skip a beat as she thought back at Theodore's peculiar state during his illness.
No matter how much she called him, he remained motionless. Could it be... that he was trapped in a realm of hallucinations?
This realization stirred up a whirlwind of emotions within Ariana, leaving her in a state of profound perplexity.
Curious, Mitchel inquired, "Who is the intended recipient of this medicine?"
His question interrupted Ariana's train of thought. Ariana glanced at Mitchel, her heart filled with hesitation.
Mitchel assisted her to figure out the origin and components of this medication. While it was Logical that he deserved to know, considering Theodore's current condition and the strained relationship between the two, she couldn't overlook the fact that Theodore had previously Lashed out at Mitchel.
