A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 135 The Truth Comes Out

Gustave hung up the phone. When he rushed downstairs, he thought of the scene in the ward last night.

Back then, Darlene sat on the bed, looked at him imploringly, and said, “Help me.”

At that time, there were so many people in the ward, but he was sure that Darlene said. those words to him. She said so while looking at him.

He went downstairs to the psych room, where the shrink was already waiting for him.

The shrink handed him the results. “Ms. Bullock does have a brain injury from that car accident many years ago, which led to her mental illness. There is certainly no possibility of playing dumb as you call it.”

The shrink then added, “She’s got the IQ of a six or seven–year–old, but she’s not completely nuts. She won’t hurt others for no reason, except that she’s not very clever.”

Gustave recalled that night in the villa, Abigail threw the bowl with medicine onto

Reina.

He thought, even if she is stupid, she can’t be that stupid. Or was she acting on someone

else’s orders?

The more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong. Are things that coincidental? Abigail is Aurora?

Moreover, Vivian’s bad deeds were exposed, and the Bullock family was about to be implicated at the same time I found out about this.

Speaking of which, it can be considered that I did the Bullock family a favor because of

Abigail.

He took the results and went out. Sandra, who was hiding outside and eavesdropping, immediately pulled Abigail and retreated to the corner of the corridor not far away.

Seeing that Gustave came out, Abigail wanted to hand him the thermos that was filled

with soup, but Sandra dragged her away.

Abigail was unhappy. “Sandra, what are you dragging me away for? I made the soup

myself. I wanted Gustave to try it.”
