NovelAppThe next day, Julien arrived alone at Alyssa and Jasper's villa.
"Jul, where's Jonah?" Alyssa and Julien sat in the living room while Jasper, ever the considerate host, brought out a platter of cut fruits for their guest. "Jonah is at htaking care of Dad and managing shousehold errands. We're leaving for Mosgravia in two days." A sweet sentiment welled up in Julien's eyes as he addressed Winston as "Dad" so naturally.

"Lyse, I'm here because the medication test results are out," Julien announced, his voice firm as he handed them the document. Alyssa tore open the brown envelope while Jasper quickly sat beside her.
"The breakdown seems complex," Alyssa said. She was a surgeon, so she knew very little about pharmaceuticals.
Jasper, however, perused the document with ease. "Is this considered medication, not a drug?" "It is a type of medication. I've checked the contents. It's basically an antidepressant and antipsychotic meant to stabilize mental conditions," Julien said sternly.
Jasper's expression darkened. "If it's medication, Jameson could use it as an excuse, even if we catch him. Selling medication is a far cry from illegal drugs." Alyssa, outraged, clenched her fists until her knuckles cracked. "How vicious of him to conduct lab tests on humans!" "There's an unexpected twist, though," Julien interrupted, taking the report back and scrutinizing it further. His brow furrowed. "The components of this medication are remarkably similar to those of a medication recently developed by Lovelace Pharmaceuticals for Alzheimer's disease. Honestly, based solely on these results, I'd mistake it for a generic medication produced by Lovelace Pharmaceuticals." "Alzheimer's disease?" Shock appeared on Jasper's face. "I thought this was an incurable disease. There is no medication for it." Julien nodded. "That's right.
However, the Lovelace Group is determined to develop a drug for it My father had formed the country's best drug research and development team for this purpose. They poured all their resources into it. "I hear there have been recent developments, but I suspect it's not that simple. Releasing such news might be a ploy to attract further investment. The research could even be fabricated." Alyssa's eyes suddenly lit up. "Jameson's mother has Alzheimer's disease." "He might have developed this medication through despicable means, potentially for his mother," Jasper said as he read Alyssa's mind.

Alyssa sensed something was amiss. "Jameson suddenly developed this medication and even secretly an experiments on it. He might be malicious, but he isn't capable of plotting such a deliberate scheme. After all, this isn't his area of expertise. Jasper held Alyssa's waist and gently caressed it. "Lyse, do you think someone is manipulating him? Maybe Jameson isn't the mastermind behind this medication but merely a pawn?" "I can't help but think so. He grew up in the shadows in Kontina for years. Who knows what kind of company he kept?" "However, we have no proof," Julien said, frustration evident in his voice.
"We can't prove that the so-called 'drug addicts' are actually subjects of a human trial or that Jameson is involved. What should we do?" Alyssa and Jasper exchanged thoughtful glances, both lost in contemplation.
It was Cyrus calling.
"Something terrible happened, Lyse!" Cyrus exclaimed. "Nathan Waters was arrested for murder!"
