The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 761

"Take these for a while. We'll monitor the effects, and I'll adjust the dosage accordingly."

Clive stared at the assorted, brightly colored pills resting on the napkin, an unsettling pit forming in his stomach. He hesitated, then glanced up. "Zeus... where exactly did you get these? Are they even safe? I don't need things getting worse."

Zeus let out a sharp scoff. He crossed his arms, looking down at his younger brother with a mix of pity and arrogance. "This is the latest targeted therapy our research institute is developing. It's currently in the clinical data collection phase. Even though it's experimental, the clinical efficacy is incredible, and the side effects are far more controlled than standard treatments. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought them to you."

He leaned in slightly. "Let’s be real. If you weren't my brother, you'd never get your hands on this. People out there would pay a fortune for these."

Knowing Clive’s tendency to brag, Zeus’s tone hardened into a warning. "I’ve given you the medication. If you actually want to survive this, take your pills, eat properly, and track your reactions down to the minute. Don't ask questions, and keep your mouth shut about this. It’s for your own good."

Clive’s face paled. After a tense silence, he muttered, "Got it."

He scooped up the pills, shoved them into his mouth, and chugged a glass of water. The bitter aftertaste made him wince in disgust.

Zeus watched him coldly. "It’s just us here. It’s time you tell me exactly how you caught this."

Zeus studied him for a long moment, easily seeing through the bravado. With a dismissive sneer, he backed off. He tossed a notebook and pen onto the coffee table.

"Fine. I won't ask. But write down every single side effect you experience. Send me the logs every night."

Clive grabbed the notebook, flipping through the blank pages with overt annoyance. "I just need to take the pills and get better. Why do I have to do homework? Are you treating me like one of your lab rats?"
