The Lies He Told Me (Grace and Antonio)

After returning to Cruxfield, Antonio locked himself in the Kaufman's villa, going nowhere and seeing no one.

Every day upon waking, he would have someone deliver several crates of alcohol to the room Grace used to live in, and he would drink himself into a stupor.

Each time he drank, his stomach would be wracked with convulsive pain. He would then take some medicine along with the alcohol and continue to drink himself senseless.

After half a month of such self-harm, his body could no longer

withstand it, and he was taken to hospital after vomiting blood.

When the Kaufmans

heard it and rushed over, the doctor handed them the diagnosis report.

When Quinten saw the

words "malignant gastric perforation" on the report, his face turned extremely ugly. Antonio' mother, Marlene, even fainted on the spot.

However, when Antonio woke up and learned about his condition, he showed no reaction. He just lay listlessly on the bed, his face lifeless.

The subsequent treatment was also fraught with difficulties.

No matter who tried to persuade him, Antonio wouldn't listen. He didn't follow medical advice and take his medication. He even sneaked out of the hospital multiple times to avoid examinations.

Under such circumstances, his condition deteriorated rapidly.
