Upon ingesting the pill, Ira experienced a refreshing coolness that seemed to flow through her body before converging at her eyes.
Gradually, her previously listless gaze started to sharpen.
Ira surveyed her surroundings as an exceptional sense of excitement welled up within her.
Her body was trembling as she shouted, “I-I can see now! I can see everything...”
Hearing Ira's shout, Emily hurried into the house and discovered that Ira was now able to see. The young lady's own excitement was nearly impossible to conceal.
She lunged forward and embraced Ira tightly, her voice filled with anticipation as she asked, “Grandma, can you see now?”
“Emily, I can see you now. You're such a lovely girl!” Ira exclaimed, her hands holding Emily's face as tears of joy streamed down her cheeks.
They both hugged each other and burst into happy tears.
Seeing that, Percy felt his nose sting.
It took a while before Emily and Ira finally calmed down.
“Thank you so much, Jared. I don't even know how to repay you,” Emily said gratefully as she got to her knees.
“Silly girl, you saved my life. This is nothing.” Jared prevented her from kneeling and handed over the remaining pills. “Hold onto these pills carefully. Give one to Ms. Ira every day. Once she finishes this batch, she will recover completely!”
Emily nodded and kept the pills carefully.
“Emily, Percy, please step outside for a moment. I need to have a private conversation with Jared,” Ira said.
Hearing that, Emily quickly dragged Percy out.
Once Emily and Percy left, Ira started rummaging through her cabinets and found a wooden box tucked away in a corner.
