Can't Win Me Back

"W-Who are you... Who are you?" Lily's bloodshot eyes widened, and she scratched wildly in the air, leaving two bloody marks on Jameson's face. "You're not my son... Jimmy is not as wicked as you! He's not!"

Jameson remained kneeling. Without moving, he watched Lily go mad with a cold and resolute expression.

He felt like he was going mad too-just that his madness was quiet.

Upon hearing the commotion, two nurses hurried over to restrain Lily, who was trembling and struggling.

"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?

Lily shouted incoherently and was eventually pushed away by the nurses.

"Mr. Schmidt... don't be too upset. Madam Lily is not in her right mind now. Don't take her words to heart," Carl kept comforting Jameson.

Witnessing the scene, even he felt extremely uncomfortable, let alone Jameson.

"How much longer... How much longer will it take?" Jameson closed his eyes. His chest heaved restlessly. "Mr. Justin can wait, but my mom can't wait any longer!"

Carl clenched his teeth and said softly, "Mr. Schmidt, why don't... why don't you try giving this medicine to Madam Lily? What if it works?"

"No!" Jameson firmly rejected his dangerous idea. "This medicine has only been tested for less than half a year and has already killed several healthy people. It shows how potent and unstable it is! I can't... I can't let my mom take this risk!"

"But now you have no choice but to try anything!"

Carl couldn't hold back any longer.

He blurted out the diagnosis he heard from the doctor, "The doctor

said, if you continue with

conservative treatment, net

Lily

will only have... at most half a year left. Or even shorter!"

Jameson had anticipated it, but hearing it with his own ears felt like a heavy blow to the back of his head, leaving him unsteady on his feet.

"If that's the case, why don't you give it a try? You might extend her life!"

Just then, Carl's phone chimed with a notification. As he checked it, his pupils shrank. "Mr. Schmidt! Something's happened!"

Jameson's eyes darkened. He took out his phone and opened Twitter.

A trending topic was raging like wildfire. #Human Drug Experimentation.

A Twitter post with over a million shares originated from the official account of Solana Daily. And everyone in Solana City knew that Beckett Group was one of the major shareholders behind it. S

The statement was blunt, indicating that a deep blue pill in the

el

underground market was being sold as a recreational drug. However, behind this façade, it was being used for human drug experiments. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Not only that, the Twitter post also included a video showing a member of the Ivory Gang overdosing on the drug. The scene was shockingly intense. Twitter was ablaze with public opinion, so much so that the platform experienced lagging.

It was evident how severe the impact was.

"Solana Daily really has guts! How dare they openly publish such news? Are they crazy?" Carl panicked. His phone in his hand seemed like a hot potato.
