At the age of 64, I married a 31-year-old man. Six months later, I noticed that every evening he secretly added something to my drink and insisted that I drink it to the last drop.

I was staring at him.

Experimental?

  • Yes. It is a substance that should not be administered without proper medical supervision and informed patient consent.

Suddenly, my exhaustion and concentration problems took on a much more worrying dimension.

Dr. Reeves asked if I had been visiting a private clinic recently.

  • Yes. My husband organized my research.

Was Adrian Cole a doctor?

I stopped my breath.

  • How do you know?

He opened the briefcase.

“My lab cooperated with organizations affiliated with this facility.

Then he turned the computer screen towards me.

I saw my name and surname.

Your address.

Date of birth.

And beneath them two words:

PARTICIPANT OF THE RESEARCH.

"I've never volunteered for any medical research," I whispered.

However, the documentation showed that I was included in an experimental program, the subject of which was biological processes related to aging.

The file was accompanied by consent forms with my signature.
