Chapter 381
t
Evadne was admitted to the ward, having IV drips. Physically and mentally worn out, she lay on the bed without a hint of sleepiness.
Cassius sat by her side, holding his sister’s foot on his lap, carefully tending to her ankle wound with a cotton swab.
It was only then that Evadne felt a twinge of pain. She furrowed her brows slightly, remaining silent.
“Evadne, you didn’t return to the Elmsworth villa or Skyrim last night. Where did you go?” Cassius asked softly, his hands trembling as he applied ointment to her wound. Evadne didn’t make any sound.
“Did you go to see Thaddeus?”
The man’s name was like a ticking bomb, and every time Cassius mentioned it, he was cautious. “Chasel said that you took him to see Thaddeus yesterday, and the meeting wasn’t pleasant. Then you received a phone call and left alone. Did you go to see him?”
“Cassius.”
After a while, Evadne finally focused her hollow eyes on Cassius‘ face, her voice hoarse, “I hate who I am now. I feel so cheap.”
“Silly girl, don’t belittle yourself.”
Cassius felt a pang of heartache, his breath hitched as he leaned closer to hug her, “Anyone who says a word against my sister will have to answer to me.”
The blood ties between siblings were more important than any other things.
All he wanted was for his sister to live a smooth and happy life.
Evadne sobbed in her brother’s arms, not understanding why she was so affected by the sight of Thaddeus and Acacia’s picture together.
It was as though her soul had been shattered.
At this moment, a nurse entered from outside the room.
“President Ashbourne, it’s time to change Ms. Ashbourne’s dressing.”
“Alright.”
Cassius let go of Evadne and stood up, his eyes filled with worry.
The nurse helped Evadne remove her loose hospital gown. Underneath, she was wearing a silver silk slip dress. Her exposed skin was as white as ivory, her arms, slender and fragile.
Even though Cassius had helped Evadnie dress and comforted her when she was little, she was now a grown woman, and it was necessary for him to leave the room during her dressing change.
Just as he was about to turn and leave the room, he caught sight of the numerous red marks on Evadne’s neck and collarbone. They were so vivid and glaring! They extended from her neck, all the way down to her chest. They were everywhere!
In an instant, Cassius was stunned. Adam’s apple bobbing, he rushed over, his fingers digging into her skin as he held her shoulder.
The nurse was startled. Seeing the dark expression on President Ashbourne’s face, she quickly excused herself.
“Evadne, did he touch you?”
Cassius stared at her, his voice hoarse, “Did Thaddeus touch you? Did you two?”
Evadne looked at him with dull eyes and pulled at her dry lips.
Her silence was her answer.
“Did he force you?” Cassius spat out the words through gritted teeth.
“No, I wanted to.”
There was a thunderous sound in Cassius‘ head as if his heart had collapsed.
When Cassius emerged from the room, his face was as dark as hell.
