Chapter 509

Nara had just finished writing a sentence and was about to show it to Gary’s mother when the latter knocked the notebook out of her hand and pointed at her, cursing angrily. “You can’t even speak. What makes you think you’re good enough for my son?”

Nara looked at her in astonishment.

She waved her hands frantically, her mouth opening and closing as if she wanted to say something but couldn’t manage to speak.

Gary’s mother immediately stepped forward and slapped Nara across the face with a swing of her hand!

Nara toppled to the ground. She was already frail, and now, she could taste blood in her mouth once again…

This taste was all too familiar to Nara lately.

Jackson and Austin had abused her. When she jumped off the rooftop, her mouth was filled with this very

taste…

Clutching her face, Nara looked at Gary’s mother in

shock.

Gary’s mother continued to glare at her. “Let me tell you, stop messing with my son! Stay away from him!”

Nara was utterly dumbfounded.

She looked helplessly at Gary’s mother, wanting to say it wasn’t like that…

Between her and Gary, Gary had always been the one

who took the initiative.

Being mute, she always felt inferior and had been struggling for life since she was young, fighting to escape poverty. How would she have the time to fall in

love?

Gary courted her at university, helping her…

She remembered that Gary looked down on her at first, thinking she didn’t deserve to be the top student. Since she was mute, he wondered how she could

succeed in medicine if she couldn’t communicate with

patients.

But later, in the lab, Gary got frightened by a dissected mouse and vomited until he was half dead, while only Nara remained calm, undisturbed by anything.

Gary started following her around.
