Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Psychiatric Assessment Report

"I went to the hospital to see Abigail Perry a few days ago."

Edward Stephens glanced at her with a half-smile, seemingly aware that she was changing the subject. He played along, "Oh?"

The steak was served, and Daisy Ginger lowered her head, slowly cutting it with a dining knife, "She woke up, but her will to live is very low. The infection in her amputated thigh is quite severe, and they’ve been treating her with antibiotics for days. I told her I would make sure she gets well."

Edward poured her a glass of red wine, "You didn’t do anything wrong; there’s no need to blame yourself." If it were him, and someone dared to harm his mother, he probably wouldn’t give them the chance to lie comfortably in bed.

"Her vocal cords are damaged, and she can’t move anything below the neck." Daisy’s expression was calm, "I wish she was even worse off, how could I possibly feel guilty?"

"..."

"When she saw me, she was very scared. I mentioned Emily Ginger to her, and she didn’t have much reaction, just stared at me in fear. I think you’re right; the person she loves most is herself." Even at a time like this, she hadn’t thought about her daughter.

Edward noticed her mood deteriorating as she spoke more and finally said, "You don’t need to visit her in the future. Anyway, someone will take good care of her."

Daisy sighed softly, eating her steak with her head down, "I just want to sort everything out, so I won’t have to care anymore."

Whether it was Emily Ginger or Abigail Perry, she wanted to see them one last time, and once she had, she wouldn’t need to see them anymore.

For her, this matter was already settled, the dust had settled.

After finishing their candlelit dinner, as they left the restaurant, Daisy saw Chloe Brooke, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.

She seemed to be dining with her parents, looking less vibrant and youthful than when she was with Ian Linton, but her complexion seemed decent. Ian Linton’s deception hadn’t left too much of a mark on her.

Daisy, holding onto Edward’s arm, gave her a glance, wanting to avoid any awkwardness, then averted her gaze, not greeting her.

As they walked out the door, Chloe’s clear voice called out from behind, "Daisy!"
