“You… Who are you… Who are you?!” Sophie’s eyes were wide with shock as she flailed her hands wildly in the air, her nails raking two deep scratches across Christopher’s fair, handsome face.
“You’re not my son… My son, Christopher, would never be so cruel! He would never be this cruel!”
Christopher knelt on one knee, his face composed and resolute, as he watched his mother descend into madness.
He felt as if he had gone mad too—just a very quiet kind of madness.
Hearing the commotion, two caregivers rushed over to restrain the trembling, struggling Sophie.
“Call the police… Call the police… He’s a murderer… A murderer!”
But who would believe the words of a late-stage Alzheimer’s patient?
Sophie’s frantic cries finally died down as the caregivers escorted her away.
“Mr. Iverson… Please don’t be upset. Madam Sophie isn’t in her right mind anymore. Don’t take her words to heart,” Taylor continued comforting him, but seeing the distressing scene was heartbreaking enough. He could not imagine how much harder it must be for Christopher.
“How much longer… How much longer do we have to wait?” Christopher shut his eyes tightly, his breaths quickening with frustration. “He can wait, but my mother doesn’t have time to spare!”
Taylor bit on his lip and spoke softly. “Mr. Iverson, perhaps... Perhaps you should let Madam Sophie try this drug? Who knows, it might just work out by some lucky chance?”
“Absolutely not!” Christopher rejected the dangerous suggestion without hesitation. “The drug has only been in trials for less than six months, and it’s already killed several people—healthy, living people! It’s clearly potent and highly unstable! I can’t… I can’t let my mother take that risk!”
