“Yes! The doctor suggested | continue attending weekly sessions, and they also prescribed some medications,” Sarah replied, her smile emanating contentment as she reached for her bag. She handed the prescription over to Ariana.
Ariana scrutinized the prescription meticulously. It comprised sedatives and soothing elixirs, but they bore little resemblance to those Theodore took.
Inwardly, Ariana couldn't help but sigh out of frustration.
The parallels between Sarah's condition and Theodore’s episodes had caught her attention the previous day, although Theodore’s condition was far more dire and alarming.
If Theodore’s state truly stemmed from psychological trauma, Ariana shuddered at the depths of his suffering. She found herself both sympathetic and anxious for his well-being.
Her online investigations had proven fruitless, offering no traces of the medication Theodore used. It looked like it wasn’t easy to come about.
Furthermore, she had received no updates from Mitchel concerning his investigation.
“So, what occupies your thoughts?” Sarah waved her hand before Ariana, snapping her back to reality. “It’s time to get something to bite.”
Sarah appeared to be on the road to recovery, taking back the prescription from Ariana and safely putting it into her bag before they left the clinic.
Ariana nodded unconsciously, falling into step alongside her. Since they had an upcoming dinner engagement with Mitchel, Ariana resolved to talk about the investigation in person.
The designated dinner hour was yet to arrive, so Ariana and Sarah made their way to the reserved restaurant to discuss the menu options beforehand.
Ariana had chosen the venue. The ordinary eatery nestled amidst a bustling locality. Its unassuming interior design welcomed a steady stream of people.
Ariana found solace in such humble surroundings, always relishing the simple pleasures of dining in unpretentious establishments.
With an hour to spare, they had ample time to settle in and make themselves comfortable. Surprisingly, as Ariana and Sarah stepped inside, they spotted Mitchel.
A brief moment of bewilderment washed over Ariana as she fumbled for her phone to check the time. It was indeed early. She rubbed her eyes and asked Sarah, “Isn’t that Dr. Chadwick over there?”
Sarah too caught sight of him and nodded uncertainly. She said to Ariana, “Could | have mistaken the timing? Why is he here so prematurely?”
As Sarah uttered those words, Ariana confirmed that Mitchel had indeed arrived ahead of schedule.
In the bustling restaurant, he sat alone at an unoccupied table, clad in a crisp white shirt, engrossed in an abundance of medical literature. His fingers danced across the keys of his laptop.
Immersed in his work, he remained oblivious to the incessant ebb and flow of people, his gaze unyielding.
Despite his unassuming attire, there lingered an undeniable air of elegance, setting him apart from the chaos that enveloped his surroundings.
Ariana and Sarah exchanged puzzled glances and started making their way toward him. As Ariana drew closer to Mitchel, her regret about choosing such an ordinary restaurant intensified.
Given that they were treating Mitchel, Ariana couldn’t help but feel that they should have selected a place more befitting his elevated status, like a grand ballroom befitting a king.
