Chapter 196 Lost Hearing
“Okay,” Patrick agreed without hesitation. “I’ll take you to Kransbay, where it’s warm all year round. There is also a magnificent sea. You’ll definitely like it.”
Genevieve nodded.
I don’t care where we go as long as we can get out of here.
Seeing that Genevieve was feeling a little upset, Patrick opened a bag of snacks and handed it to her, telling her she would not have the energy to leave if she did not eat anything. Following that, he started thoroughly inspecting the hotel room.
Later, he discovered two pinhole cameras under the set-top box and in the bathroom, which he immediately destroyed.
“Genev, do you want to take a shower?”
It was pouring rain as they left Jadeborough. Genevieve’s clothes and hair were drenched, and she still had not cleaned up.
Patrick saw her curled up in the chair, her legs encircled in her arms. He asked again because she did not seem to hear the first time.

However, the woman continued to ignore him.
Noticing that something was amiss, he approached her and squatted down so that they were at eye level. “Genev?”
After a while, Genevieve blinked blankly and typed on the phone, inquiring: What’s the matter?
“I just called you. You didn’t hear me?”
In response, Genevieve shook her head and replied: No.
Immediately, Patrick’s expression darkened. He then gave her ears a quick glance before abruptly lifting his hand to cover her right ear. “Can you hear what I’m saying right now?”
Gazing at him, Genevieve tapped away on the phone: I saw your lips move, asking if I could hear you…
At that moment, she came to a realization, and her fingers stopped moving on the screen.
She lost hearing in her left ear.
The next moment, Patrick removed his hand from her right ear and queried, “Did you hurt your ear before coming out? Or did something happen?”
Genevieve replied: When I went into the study to look for Grandma, I found her dead on the couch. Later, Marilyn and the housekeeper came in. I failed to stop her from slapping me across the face.
Marilyn slapped her so forcefully that she could hear a ringing in her ear for a brief moment before she could hear clearly again.
Once Patrick learned that the deafness in her left ear might be caused by Marilyn, he had a vengeful look in his eyes.
Taking a deep breath, he handed the pajamas and a clean towel to Genevieve. “Genev, go take a shower and go to bed. I’ll take you to the hospital first thing tomorrow morning.”
However, she did not move and merely dipped her head and tightened her grip on the pajamas.
