Micah clutched his head in agony, releasing a pained scream. Seeing him like this was gut-wrenching for Nina, but even more so for Freya, who had been by his side every day.
Nina stepped forward, gently placing a hand on his shoulder, her voice soft and soothing.
"Micah, this isn't your fault. Please don't push yourself like this—"
"It is my fault! If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have made that sacrifice. I've seen death so many times, but I've never felt like this before. Nina, you don't understand! I watched her die right in front of me..."
Micah's voice was hoarse, cutting through Nina's words, each word carrying the weight of his torment. Nina had never seen him so broken, and it left her feeling helpless.
Afraid he might lose control, she quickly called their father. Before long, Pharaoh arrived with a team from the lab. Seeing Micah in this state, Pharaoh felt an overwhelming sadness. This was his son, after all.
But when Pharaoh examined Micah, he discovered that Micah had been secretly taking phenobarbital. It was a drug Pharaoh had modified, which had addictive properties. Micah's recent breakdown was a result of withdrawal from not taking the medication on time.
Pharaoh immediately set new rules. From now on, any medication from the lab would require approval. Additionally, anyone who knew about Micah's drug use was silenced. As the leader of the Yaren Tribe, Micah had many enemies who would exploit this weakness if it became public.
Freya wanted to stay by Micah's side, but Pharaoh stopped her. "Micah can be absent because of work, but what reason would you have for being absent?"
Freya realized the implication immediately, but she couldn’t bear to leave him. "He wasn't with me on our wedding night. He’s been in so much pain lately. If I can't stay with him now, then what am I?"
Her voice trembled, as if something was lodged in her throat. Her heart felt as if it was being squeezed by an invisible hand.

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me 🤯 Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
