The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1959

Instantly, the taste of bile rose to Justin’s throat, rendering him speechless.

“To my knowledge, no medicine can truly cure autism. It can only manage its symptoms. Moreover, overuse can lead to lethargy and mental dullness.” Bella shook her head skeptically. “If truly it worked, Carrie’s autism would have been cured by now.”

“Ms. Thompson is right, but that was in Savrow.”

Grant’s expression was gentle and patient as he explained. “In the past two years, a new medication has been developed in Meridan to suppress autism. Though it is still a supplementary treatment, it is still far more effective than our medicine. Additionally, I believe that if Mr. Hoffman spends more time accompanying Carrie and surrounding her with love, her condition will improve significantly. It will be much better than electroshock therapy. Ultimately, autistic patients need to feel loved as much as possible.”

Gregory nodded in agreement. “Grant, you raise a lot of good points!”

However, Bella remained impassive. “Mr. Salvador, with all due respect, I am very skeptical of medication, especially foreign ones. This is something you ingest, and any mishap could cause irreversible damage. My father recently suffered a stroke. Conservative treatments could have saved him, but he instead took medication from an untrustworthy person, leading to severe side effects, even incontinence. I do not want the same terrible things to happen to Carrie. I see her as my own sister. I am not willing to take that risk.”

“Ms. Thompson, I understand your concern.”

Grant kept his gaze gentle. “That is why I will accompany Carrie in taking the medication. Whatever she takes, I will take the same amount. Is that acceptable?”

The other three were left stunned.

“Grant, what are you doing?!”

Gregory immediately objected. “All medicine has side effects. You do not have that kind of illness. How can you volunteer to take that medication? This is absolutely unacceptable!”

Bella was surprised. She had not expected Grant to go so far, risking himself just to ease her concerns.

“I have taken over a thousand kinds of medication over the years, so one more won’t make a difference.” Grant remained calm. “I understand Ms. Thompson’s concerns, especially given what her father has gone through. It’s only natural to be extra cautious. It’s decided, then. Within three days, I’ll have Clarice deliver the medicine. As the oldest brother, I have no other desire but for my sister to be safe and sound.”
