Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 997

Murphy was quiet for some time before he spoke, “There isn’t an antidote for the hallucinogen. The composition of the hallucinogen is very complex. Wicked Palace created it to be used as a lethal weapon. The point of its existence is that it has no cure,” Murphy explained.

Sophia’s expression darkened.

She looked at Evan like he was her last hope.

Evan’s features were twisted with concern. If she becomes worse than she is now, I don’t know how I’ll be able to take it.

“You should get someone to get started on making an antidote, Dad. We might still be able to save Nicole,” Avril proposed.

Murphy sighed. “I already tried many years ago. Your mother’s friend took the drug accidentally. But it was useless. One wrong move would create a poison instead of a cure!”

Murphy’s solemn delivery sounded as though he was sealing Nicole’s fate.

“Nicole is a good person. Nothing bad will happen to her. She’ll be fine.”

Sophia’s assuring words could just as likely have been for her own sake as it could Evan’s.

Evan was stunned for a period of time before he turned to leave.

Sophia’s heart ached as she gazed at his lonely and forlorn figure.

Nicole and Evan were about to get married. How could something like this happen?

“Haven’t the both of them suffered enough? Why are they still being tortured? Nicole’s illness affects Evan as well. They share each other’s burdens. Evan cares more about Nicole than he does himself. No one is more hurt by this than him.”

Tears welled up in Sophia’s eyes as she spoke.

Don’t they deserve their happily ever after? How many more times can their relationship be tested?

If I could rewind time, I would prevent Evan from ever meeting Nicole. Then, he’ll end up with some girl he isn’t as in love with and lead a boring but stable life!

Please let my son be alright!
