In the hospital.

After examining Kimberly, the doctor turned to Maddox and said, "The patient must have been frightened."

Frightened? Maddox Yardley narrowed his eyes. She was in the room the whole time. How could she be frightened? Could it be...

Maddox remembered that the villa was dark when he arrived.

Was she afraid of the dark?

"The patient must have been tremendously shocked, which caused her to hallucinate. So..."

Sam Sorrento glanced at Kimberly who was lying on the bed with a strange look. He asked doubtfully, "It's normal for ordinary people to be afraid of the dark, but even if they have a phobia of the dark, they wouldn't have been so frightened like she was, right? Doctor, could she be injured?"

"I have already run the tests. There are no other abnormalities apart from her low blood pressure and weak body. However, isn't she pregnant? She must not be frightened like this in the future. I found that she had some symptoms of habitual abortion. If this kind of situation happens frequently in the future, it will lead to a miscarriage.

"But doctor, why did she become like this?"

Sam explained the situation at that time to the doctor in detail. The doctor thought about it for a moment and then said again, "The patient may have experienced trauma in a similar environment before. This may be the reason why the psychological damage was much more severe on her than on any ordinary people."

"Trauma?" Sam looked at Maddox subconsciously.

Maddox pursed his lips and his gaze fell on Kimberly. He remained silent.

"Doctor, when will she wake up?"

"We should let her rest for the time being. The patient must return to her normal state before she could wake up."

Sam was shocked. What if the patient couldn't return to her normal state? He almost blurted out this question but he immediately restrained himself.

After the doctor left, there were only three people left in the ward.
