Marie brought a glass of water and placed the pill in Victoria’s mouth.
Victoria took it reluctantly. She held no hope and could see that Marie was a two-faced schemer who was just putting on a show for her son. This medicine would be useless.
However, Marie insisted, holding the pill to her lips.
Victoria had no choice but to swallow it.
Marie asked with a sinister tone, "So, Mom, how do you feel now?"
Victoria hadn't expected anything, but after taking the pill, she realized she had stopped drooling. The twitching in her face seemed to have lessened as well.
"I think… I feel much better."
Although Victoria still stuttered slightly, her voice was no longer the grating, gravelly sound it had been before.
Darren looked on, his excitement growing.
"It really is a special medicine! Mom, you can be saved!"
Victoria was overjoyed. This was just the first dose, and it was already working. She still couldn't control her body, but there was a definite improvement.
She never thought Marie would actually find a competent doctor this time.
