Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 687
Now, Ariana’s memory resurfaced, recalling instances at Mercy Hospital where the doctors showed all their respect to Theodore.
Theodore’s ties to Mercy Hospital raised eyebrows!
Ariana’s mind turned into a Labyrinth of confusion as she grappled with the tangled mess before her. It was as if a whirlwind had
swept in, bringing together a motley crew of unrelated individuals and circumstances.
Lost amidst this intricate web, Ariana found herself at a loss on how to navigate the situation.
Just as she was entangled in her thoughts, Mitchel interjected once more, his tone serious as he said, “Unraveling the specific
symptoms this drug targets will take time, but its primary ingredients, cyproheptadine II and cyproheptadine III, possess a
calming effect.”
Mitchel continued, his words carrying weight, “Although we are currently uncertain about the precise ailments this medication
aims to address, similar drugs are typically employed to combat common illusions or hallucinations induced by toxic agents in
the market.”
Illusions or hallucinations? These words caused Ariana’s heart to skip a beat as she thought back at Theodore’s peculiar state
during his illness.
No matter how much she called him, he remained motionless. Could it be... that he was trapped in a realm of hallucinations?
This realization stirred up a whirlwind of emotions within Ariana, leaving her in a state of profound perplexity.
Curious, Mitchel inquired, “Who is the intended recipient of this medicine?”

His question interrupted Ariana’s train of thought. Ariana glanced at Mitchel, her heart filled with hesitation.
Mitchel assisted her to figure out the origin and components of this medication. While it was Logical that he deserved to know,
considering Theodore’s current condition and the strained relationship between the two, she couldn’t overlook the fact that
Theodore had previously Lashed out at Mitchel.
Even she ignored their grievances momentarily, Horace’s reluctance to divulge any information and Theodore’s avoidance of the
matter also played a part in Ariana’s internal struggle.
After wrestling with her thoughts, Ariana shook her head and replied, “I apologize, but I cannot disclose that information at this
time.”
Mitchel refrained from pressing the matter further, simply nodding in acknowledgment. “Respecting patient privacy is an
admirable trait. I just wanted to caution you that medications of this nature often carry side effects and the potential for
dependency and addiction.”
It dawned on Ariana why Horace had mentioned Theodore’s addiction issues. It seemed he had been reliant on this medication
for quite some time.
Concern etched on her face, Ariana couldn’t help but ask anxiously, “What happens if the patient stops taking the medication
abruptly?”
“Abrupt cessation of this medication can trigger mood disturbances such as extreme shifts in personality, paranoia, and
irritability.”
Mitchel’s response was disconcerting. Receiving this answer, Ariana’s mind immediately connected Theodore’s erratic behavior
and peculiar displays. After a brief pause, she tentatively ventured, “Could the withdrawal reactions from the drug be responsible

for extreme possessiveness or controlling tendencies?”
Pondering for a moment, Mitchel nodded in contemplation. “It is indeed plausible. Ordinary individuals may experience some
negative and eccentric emotions and desires, but they typically remain within manageable boundaries. However, the
components of this medication disrupt self-control, eradicating emotional boundaries and amplifying existing negative emotions.”
As Mitchel spoke, Ariana began to piece together the puzzle.
Theodore’s automatic response in the hospital when he retrieved the medication hinted at a long-standing reliance and the
likelihood of numerous side effects.
And when Horace saw this medicine, he repeatedly implored Theodore not to take it, indicating that they were already aware of
its severe adverse effects and that Theodore had already developed a dependence and addiction to it, so he was very Likely to
be withdrawing from it now.
Could Theodore’s previous behavior, his surveillance methods, control desires, and extreme actions all be attributed to the
medication, causing him to Lose control completely?
And judging by Mitchel’s tone, the side effects of this medication should be highly dangerous. And yet, Theodore never truly
harmed her.
