Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1959

Instantly, Justin could taste the stench of blood in the back of his throat. His organs felt like they were immersed in a vat of medicinal concoction. He felt so bitter that he couldn't say a word.

"As per my knowledge, there is no drug that can heal mental disorders. At most, it can only be controlled. If the patient takes too much medicine, they would become lethargic and lose the will to do anything."

Alyssa shook her head in disbelief. "If drugs were useful, Lauren would have healed from her depression."

"Ms. Alyssa is right, but that only applies to this country." Justin explained patiently and gently, "In the past two years, Mosgravia has been researching a drug to control the symptoms of mental disorders. Although it's still a supplementary drug, its effects are much better than our local drugs.

"Afterward, let Mr. Landon spend more time to accompany Lauren. Let her feel completely supported with love and care. I believe that Lauren's condition will improve vastly, which would work better than electroconvulsive therapy.

"To sum it up, patients with mental disorders need to feel loved. The more, the better."

Javier nodded. "Justin, this makes a lot of sense!"

Despite Alyssa being very rational, her gaze was chilly.

"Justin, forgive me for being blunt, but I'm doubtful about using drugs, especially drugs from foreign countries. After all, it will be consumed by the patient, and if there are any issues, it might bring irreversible harm to their body.

"Previously, my father suffered from cerebral infarction. If he continued with the approved treatment, he would have recovered. But to let himself heal faster, he consumed drugs given by someone who wanted to harm him. Then, there were serious side effects that even made him lose control of his urination.

"I do not wish for the same awful fate to befall Lauren. Lauren is like a sister to me. I cannot take this risk."

"Ms. Alyssa, I understand your worries."

Justin pursed his lips lightly. The gentleness in his gaze did not lessen. "Hence, I will take the drug with Lauren. Whatever her dosage is, I will take the same. Would that be acceptable?"

The other four were stunned!

"Justin, you, what are you doing?"

Javier felt extremely worried, and he immediately rejected this idea. "Are you out of your mind? You aren't even suffering from the same disorder. How can you simply take the same drugs? No, that's out of the question!"

Alyssa was confused. She never thought that Justin would be so foolhardy as to test the drugs himself! Moreover, his only reason was to ease her worries!

"All these years, the types of drugs I've taken must number up to a thousand or at least a few hundred. What does it matter if I take one more drug?"
