A resounding sound echoed before a satisfied voice echoed out.
"Excellent!"
Davis lightly clapped his hands in approval as he saw Lia Alstreim grab the sleeping pill and pop it into her mouth in a single move that was done without any hesitation. Her eyes shone with determination to take this leap of faith.
She gulped and swallowed the pill. However, her gaze fell on Davis at this moment.
"I trust you, grandson..."
Her voice came out weakly. Her eyes seemed heavy as they shut close a few times, but she tried her best to keep them open to the best of her ability to hear Davis's reply.
Davis did not say anything but just looked at her finally closing her eyes completely after a few seconds, her posture slightly slanting over the headboard as she entered sleep while the book on her lap fell off to the bed.
Right now, she was nothing but a defenseless and helpless woman.
