Chapter 727

Steven was never one to be overly sentimental, but he cried for the longest time that night, clearly feeling aggrieved. I could only hold him close while comforting him.

Perhaps it was due to losing a leg that he had become extremely sensitive -he couldn't even sleep soundly.

Linda had mentioned that Steven could only manage to sleep with the help of some medications while he was still in the asylum's underground sterile ward

As such, I forbade him from taking those sleeping pills after bringing him back, and he had never complained about it.
