Chapter 219 You Are Getting Bolder

“Madam…”

Josephine looked up at him, waiting for him to continue speaking.

Phineas hesitated and said, “It’s nothing. Get some rest, Madam. I’ll take these two puppies away for now. I’ll bring them to you after you’ve recovered.”

As he spoke, he stood up to pick up the puppies, placing them back into the cage. The puppies started howling after being locked back inside. They scoured around in the cage, wanting to escape from it. However, they were mercilessly taken away by Phineas.

Josephine lowered her gaze to look at the gauze on her calf. She remained silent for a while before reaching out to undo the bandage. She removed the gauze bit by bit, revealing the wound. She saw a stitched injury with a raised swelling, and the center of the wound had a purplish hue with a ring of pockmarked abrasions, presenting a shocking sight. Josephine’s pupils contracted when she saw the injury. Josephine thought, “Why can’t I remember what happened even though I was so badly injured?”

She remembered the dream, and there was a sharp pain in her head. She held her face and took a few deep breaths. She felt as if needles were pricking her brain, irritating her mind, hurting her more than the pain she felt in her calf. She curled up in bed, panting. Beads of cold sweat broke out on her forehead again.

Right after Phineas put the dogs down, he received a call from Lewis. Lewis did not waste time and got straight to the point, asking, “Is she down from the mountains?”

Phineas was slightly taken aback and quickly explained, “Madam is still sleeping. I’ll send her back when she wakes up.”

“Okay.” After replying, Lewis paused for a moment before continuing to say, “Are those dogs to her liking?”

“Yes, she liked them very much.”

“I thought you mentioned she hasn’t woken up yet?”
