Chapter 604



On the outskirts of the city, nestled among green fields, stood the Serenity Rehabilitation Center.

The doctors assured that Hanson was not in mortal danger, but his future seemed confined to a bed.

Yet, with rigorous physiotherapy, there was a glimmer of hope for some independence.

Gregory simply checked him into the center, sparing no expense for his care but dismissing the need for rehabilitation.
