Chapter 1454

He wanted to return to the previous topic about Diana’s birth circumstance. He still wanted to talk about Kate.

That was also something that Diana cared very much about.

She fell silent immediately, and stopped talking.

Jim started speaking again, “My mother was a trained medical professional too, but her work was never recognized. That was because she believed that testing out drugs on humans was necessary to concoct medicines that were truly useful.”

Diana nodded. She had heard about drug trials. The late Professor Ian Lemmington’s daughter, Anna, probably died from a drug trial.

Her heart started beating faster.

Jim continued-this time, he threw Diana a bomb.

“For example, the first memory-loss pill your mother Kate Renforth took was the same as the one you took. She’s considered the first to test out the drug, and the effects were pretty good.

“But because the drug wasn’t exactly complete, her memories weren’t completely cleared like yours did. Although she forgot my mother and what she worked as before, she didn’t forget the pain from being pregnant with you and giving birth to you.”

Diana felt her heart ache in pain when she heard what Jim said.

In her memories, Kate was either scolding or hitting her. The only few times she showed her concern was because of Kayla.

She never understood why.

She didn’t understand why a mother would ignore her own biological child and choose to dote on another child raised from young.

Now, however, she finally seemed to be getting close to the answer. Her chest tightened in anticipation.

She could almost empathize with Kate’s pain.

“She really loves you,” Jim said.

Tears fell down Diana’s cheeks. They fell on her palm.

Jim pretended not to see it.

He went on, “My mother wondered what kind of medicine would make a mother give up on her relationship with her child. A medicine that could achieve such effects must be impressive. Only something like that could qualify as a genuine memory loss pill.”

These people turned a person’s deepest affections into cold, hard experimental subjects. They weren’t fit to be doctors!

Diana wanted to kill them!

Yet, she could do nothing. She was still pregnant with her twins. Betty was also in the same room as her, treated as hostage.

She could only pretend as though nothing happened, and continued listening to Jim.

“But a mother’s love for her child is too deep,” he continued, sounding slightly disappointed. “My mother went to great lengths to adjust the medicine many times, but she never managed to achieve the effect of complete elimination of one’s memories.”

Diana could almost imagine how Kate was gradually manipulated by her good friend, whom she trusted, to take those pills that would cause her to lose her memory.

“Finally, on the 38th try, my mother finally succeeded in making Kate Renforth forget everything.

However, such a pill is best paired with another pill that can help restore memories.”

He was worried Diana didn’t understand him, and explained to her with great consideration.

“For example, in this gene selection case, we wanted to leverage medical extraction expertise and use pills to replace gene technology. Under ideal circumstances, these pills can be used to control people’s memories.

“We want to be able to control various aspects including the dosage, prescription, how many memories to suppress, and how many memories we can awaken.”

The more Jim explained, the greater the doubt in Diana’s heart. Not just doubt, but also shock.

“Are you developing this drug for the sake of treatment, or to control the human body?”

Jim replied with a chuckle, “Of course, it’s to control the human body. The human body is so mysterious! If we can be the master of it, it’ll be interesting.”
