Taylor escorted Cynthia back to the room while asking nervously, “What happened? Why were you getting bullied by her again? Didn’t I tell you…”
Before Taylor could finish his sentence, he got startled by what came into his sight. “Oh my God. Cynthia, your face…”
Responsively touching her face, Cynthia felt something was flowing out.
Beyond panic, she ran to the mirror to check her face. A second later, she fell onto the ground while trembling incessantly.
“Holy shit. What’s going on?”
The two nurses at the scene also recoiled in fear. At that moment, the area on her face pierced by the needle was decomposing rapidly as pus flowed out.
“What’s happening to you?” Taylor could not suppress his anxiousness. “Could it be the needle got poisoned? Isn’t this your needle?”
He recognized instantly it was Cynthia’s medical needle.
Right away, he realized what had happened. It looks like she tried to kill Charlotte while the latter was injured badly. But who would have thought that she got pierced by Charlotte with her own needle…
“Quick! Bring me medical kit number one,” Cynthia signed anxiously.
The nurse immediately found her the medical kit.
Cynthia nervously searched through the box and took out a bottle of medicine. Just when she was about to apply it, there was an abrupt knocking on the door. The next second, Spencer’s voice appeared.
“Cynthia, Mr. Nacht is here to see you. Is it convenient now?”
Cynthia was about to go crazy. I’m about to put on the medicine, and I’m running out of time. The rotting area is becoming bigger and bigger. What’s Mr. Nacht doing here now?
Cynthia gave a signal to the nurse to ask her to reject Henry. But right then, Taylor suddenly spat out a sentence. “No problem! Please give us a second!”
Upon saying that, Taylor made a gesture toward Cynthia, asking her to tidy up herself.
Cynthia got utterly pissed by her brainless father. But at that moment, she had no other option but to comply. Helplessly, she put on her mask and hid away the medical kit.
Taylor opened the door and welcomed Henry courteously. “Mr. Nacht, is there anything? Why do you come here at this hour?”
“I’m here to see Cynthia.”
After witnessing Cynthia getting bullied by Charlotte until she nearly lost her life, Henry felt utterly guilty. With that, he came purposely to comfort Cynthia.
Cynthia was leaning against the couch. She tried to get up, and her body fell weak. As such, the nurse rushed to support her.
“Grandpa,” Cynthia signed casually.
“Cynthia, how do you feel? Is your injury serious?” Henry asked with deep concern.
Cynthia lowered her head without a word as tears began flowing down her face.
“The Nacht family owe you an apology. We’ve wronged you.”
Recalling Charlotte’s merciless gesture, Henry bit his lips in exasperation.
“Initially, I still felt sorry for her as I thought it was my stubbornness two years ago that caused her and Mrs. Berry to end up like that. But now, her crazy behavior is unforgivable!”
“Indeed. It’s unacceptable.” Taylor also stomped his feet in rage. “Probably she has found out that Cynthia took her place two years ago. That was why she’s been wanting to revenge the latter and bully her.”
Just then, Cynthia bawled out her eyes while signing, ”Actually Daddy had advised me to go back. But I’m worried about Ellie, who’s sick, and Zachary, who has been poisoned. If I go back now, their life would be in danger. That’s why I took the risk and stayed. But who would know that Ms. Lindberg refused to back off from me? She’s been trying to take my life.”
“What? Is Zachary poisoned?” A dark expression immediately loomed over Henry’s face. “How did he get poisoned? I thought he merely suffered some slight injury.”
“Have you not known about it?” Cynthia signed anxiously, ”Danrique poisoned Ellie, and her life’s at stake now. Zachary tried to confront him, but he let loose a snake to bite Zachary. Zachary almost lost his life too…”
Right then, Spencer was shaking his head forcefully, signaling her not to reveal it. Yet, Cynthia ignored him utterly.
