“Miss Powell’s internal injuries aren’t serious. From the lingering drug concentrations, we can see that
someone injected Miss Powell with drugs meant to damage nerves and stimulate desire, but they
haven’t affected her body too much. She just needs to rest and heal up.”
The doctors spoke to Emilia’s parents, with Georgia and Robert standing behind. Everyone was slightly
relieved.
If there were physical problems to go with the mental trauma, that was big trouble.
Only, mental trauma wasn’t something so easily cured.
They still didn’t know what Emilia had been through to turn her willful, straightforward personality so
sensitive and pained.
Nobody could approach Emilia as she was now. They’d already put her in a room similar to those in
mental asylums so she couldn’t hurt herself, and they had her stay there alone.
Other than people taking food and drink over, they also had to give her regular tranquilizers. In other
times, nobody dared approach her.
The moment anyone approached, Emilia grew anxious and afraid, and nobody wanted to stimulate her.
“Thank you, doctor.”
Margie turned to the doctors, who left. Georgia instantly bowed her head before Emilia’s parents.
“I’m so sorry, Oscar, Margie. It’s my fault for dragging Emilia into this. I’ll find a way to cure her. No
matter what doctors we have to find, I’ll work hard to fix this.”
Georgia didn’t even know what to say to express her apology. She just wanted to think of a way to fix
Emilia’s mental trauma.
But she wasn’t a professional in that field, and her words seemed good for nothing.
It tore Georgia up inside. She hated how she was useless.
And before Emilia’s parents, she felt even smaller, like a sinner.
She even wanted Emilia’s parents to yell at her and scold her. She felt like she deserved it.
Emilia was such a cheerful and independent girl, but she’d been tortured to this state.
Georgia couldn’t forgive her lapse this time.
“There’s no telling what could happen in life, Georgia. You might have been the cause of this, but I
know who the real culprit is. Eric’s escaped this time, and I hope you can deal with him sooner to take
revenge for Emilia. As for Emilia’s mental state, her father and I are going to try to cure her. Of course,
if you can introduce any good psychiatrists, I’ll be very grateful.
“But you don’t need to be so guilty. As her parents, we didn’t do a good job of protecting her. We just
trusted her and let her play around out there.”
At what Margie said, Georgia’s eyes reddened.
Oscar spoke up as well.
“What’s happened has happened. The most important thing to do right now is to make up for it and try
to completely suppress Eric. I’ve heard of him and seen him several times. Now’s the time to pile on
the pressure.
“Robert, Georgia, the Powell family is going to help you against Eric and the Wimbledon family. I hope
our two sides united can deal with this problem.”
“Don’t worry, Oscar. I’ve put some plans in place. If you want to know the details or to join in, I’ll provide
assistance.”
Robert turned to Oscar and promised. Oscar looked at him steadily and finally spoke.
“Take me over there to discuss it. I want to know the details and to avenge my daughter. At the very
least, I have to let the people out there know how they’re going to end up if they move against us
Powells!”
Robert complied and went somewhere else to speak with Oscar in private.
Georgia stayed there and didn’t know what to say. Margie raised a question.
“Where’s Aston? Why haven’t we seen him?”
“The girl who’d saved Emilia was called Kayden. She was Aston’s girlfriend before. She wanted to
leave, and Robert and I agreed to her request. We’re afraid of Aston coming to mess things up, so we
knocked him out and had him go unconscious in a room for a while.”
Margie showed a strange expression.
“That Kayden girl saved Emilia? How strange. She was working for Eric, then turned to help us in the
end. Did you ask why she did so?”
“I guess it was for love.”
Georgia didn’t explain the details of Kayden’s story.
Margie didn’t know about the past, and it was troublesome to explain.
Besides, it was such a complicated relationship that it was hard to clear things up in a couple lines.
Margie flashed a smile, though.
“How the wheel turns. Aston was conned by this girl in the beginning, but because he devoted himself
fully, the girl ended up helping us bring Emilia back. That’s how unexpected life is. We can only hope
the best for Emilia.”
Georgia nodded.
After a while, Ivan walked over.
His face registered sorrow, and from leaving the hospital depressed yesterday, he’d only come back
now.
“Mrs. Powell, I’ve got a grasp of Emilia’s mental and physical condition from the doctors. May I meet
her? I’d like to stay with her. I’ve also taken psychology as a second major. I’m not the peak experts of
the field, but I’d like to see her situation and help her.”
“Emilia might not wake up until the evening. To give her the medication she needs, the nurses injected
her with an anesthetic. If you really want to see Emilia, Ivan, I hope you’ll treat it professionally as a
doctor and avoid stimulating her or making her condition worse. Can you promise me that?”
“I can, Mrs. Powell.”
Ivan promised sternly.
In the afternoon, Robert and Oscar had finished their discussion.
They had dinner near the hospital, but Emilia still hadn’t woken up. Ivan decided to wait outside
Emilia’s room.
He was going to go in to chat with her after she woke.
As for Georgia and Robert, they faced an out-of-control Aston.
“How could you knock me out? How could you keep me from seeing Kayden? Have you two lost your
minds?”
After knowing that Kayden was gone, Aston had gone to Georgia and Robert, yelling with rage.
“I’m sorry about this, but Kayden had requested it. She doesn’t want you to see her. Her body needs
treatment. Robert and I have arranged for professionals.”
