Meanwhile, in the study.

Bradley sat on the sofa discussing the antidote with Gordon.

Obviously not getting the desired result, Bradley's face was very ugly.

"Her medicine has already been taken. She almost fainted today. I'm worried that if this continues, she may not be able to hold on much longer."

Gordon consoled, "Currently, the antidote is at a bottleneck period. Once we break through, it will be successful. But I really can't predict how long this bottleneck period will last."

"Can you develop some more of the medicine she took last time?"

At this point, Bradley couldn't find any other way. Acupuncture can relieve the symptoms, but it comes with great pain. He couldn't bear to see his woman suffer this way.

"Leonard, the reason I only gave a month's worth of medicine to Freya is mainly because the side effects of this medicine are uncontrollable. The more medicine she takes, the pain of each outbreak will intensify several times, and even harm Freya's body functions in various ways. So, I don't recommend continuing to take this medicine. Of course, if you insist on giving it to her, I can continue to develop it."

Bradley listened, his heart was enduring a painful struggle. Taking medicine would only double the pain. Not taking medicine, the pain of acupuncture was equally unbearable. Feeling powerless, he clenched his fists and slammed them heavily on the table, "Is there really no other way?" Gordon on the other end remained silent for a long time, before finally speaking softly, "I will try to overcome this bottleneck as soon as possible, give me another half a month..." "Okay, I'll wait for good news!" Bradley hung up the phone, sat in his seat, pinching his brow. At that moment, a knock on the door could be heard from outside, "Bradley, can I come in?" Hearing Freya's voice, Bradley immediately got up from his seat, walked over to open the door, surprising her by embracing her tightly. "What's wrong?" The sudden embrace made Freya unable to help but laugh.

Just half an hour after they separated, he couldn't bear it?

Bradley didn't say anything, he held her and sat down on the sofa, then went to the study to turn up the heater.

After being poinsoned, Freya's constitution was sensitive to cold, so the temperature in the house had to be higher than outside, otherwise she would easily tremble.

As he was accustomed to colder temperatures, when he first entered, he had adjusted the air conditioning to the lowest setting. So when the temperature rose, Bradley's body couldn't handle it and he got goosebumps.

"I just called Gordon and he said the antidote is still being developed, there will be a breakthrough in half a month..."

After some thought, Bradley decided to discuss with Freya, after all, she was a doctor and needed to have an understanding of her own body condition.

Freya nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Tell Mister Kane not to worry, I can still manage for now."

Freya also noticed the side effects of those medications, prolonged use would make each episode more painful, all because her body had become dependent on the drugs.

That's why recently she experienced dizziness accompanied by muscle soreness all over her body.

Freya had no intention of taking these medications to control the poison, even though acupuncture was several times more painful, at least it minimized the damage to her body.

If she wants to survive, she must endure the suffering of acupuncture. "Let's not talk about that for now. Just a moment ago, Gang Madeline came to see me and we were chatting happily. But then she suddenly received a text message saying Patrick was bringing Ariana to the villa to celebrate Lina's fiftieth birthday. Madeline left in a hurry and upset,"

"You quickly contact Patrick to see what's going on, how could he create such a mess at this critical moment? anyone would be upset in this situation, right?"

Freya said, getting more and more anxious. Knowing Madeline's character, with an old witch and a green tea gathering at home, she would go crazy. Seeing her so nervous, Bradley reached out and touched her hair, smiling helplessly, "Don't worry, Patrick will handle it properly."

"What can he handle? If he could handle it properly, he wouldn't have dying things to upset Madeline."

Just a moment ago, she was trying to reason with Madeline, encouraging her to understand Patrick more, but now she couldn't control anything. She only knew that Madeline would be wronged.

That's her sister, when One is in trouble, the other is in a panic too. "I'll call Patrick now to find out what's going on. Don't worry, maybe it's not as bad as you think."

Seeing Freya so anxious, Bradley also felt restless, so he quickly grabbed his phone and dialed Patrick's number right away.

When the other party answered, the man coldly asked, "My wife wants to know, what do you mean by arranging this?" Patrick on the other end hesitated for a while before responding, "You called at the right time, I was also worried about this matter. Originally, I booked a hotel for my mother's birthday celebration, but she said she doesn't like the hotel atmosphere and wants us to celebrate at home together. You know my situation, you definitely wouldn't allow my mother to come over, but my mother said that after tonight she won't interfere in my and Madeline's life anymore, and she will move abroad permanently. I thought, if Everyone can be resolved tonight, it will be the end of our troubles and Madeline and I can finally have a good life together. But as you know Madeline's temper, she already doesn't get along with my mother, and now my mother is suggesting that Ariana should come over to celebrate as well. I'm worried Madeline won't be able to handle it." Bradley nodded, saying, "You better talk to Madeline about this properly. If she doesn't understand, it might only backfire tonight and worsen your relationship." "I just texted her, she hasn't replied, and I've been calling but she hasn't answered." Patrick was clearly very anxious, his voice trembling slightly. Because Bradley had the speaker on, Freya heard every word of the phone conversation clearly. Hearing Patrick's words, she grabbed the phone. "Madeline left angrily from here just now, I think she went back home. I don't care why you're hosting this birthday banquet at home, but what does it mean to have Ariana come to your house?" Lina is Patrick's biological mother, but who is Ariana to him?

"Dear sister-in-law, this matter is a long story. Ya Ting is my mother's godYara. Patrick was grabbing his hair, feeling equally frustrated. He didn't know how to suddenly bring up the identity of godYara, so when his mother invited Ariana over, he had no reason to refuse. He didn't have the courage to tell Madeline face to face, so he chose to inform her via text message. Who knew that she wouldn't respond to his message, and even hung up on his call, and now her phone is turned off. Patrick felt like he was going crazy, recently caught in a war with women, he was beginning to feel like he was going insane."
