Chapter 956
Johanna brought Genevieve back to Swallow Garden. Like a ghost, Genevieve walked up the stairs and into
Amanda's room mindlessly.
The image of Amanda running around in her room floated in Genevieve's mind. She remembered how Amanda
would lie in bed every morning, refusing to get up, or how Amanda would ask her for help when putting on her
clothes.
Devastated, she slumped onto the rug and began bawling her eyes out.
For the next few days, Genevieve stayed in Amanda's room, neither eating nor drinking. Even when Johanna forced
a spoonful of soup into her mouth, Genevieve would spit it out the next second.
Seeing that Genevieve was starting to lose weight, Johanna felt her heart ache. “Genev, Mandy's death has nothing
to do with you. Please eat something, okay? What will Lucian do if something happens to you?”
When Genevieve heard that, a glimmer of light seemed to appear at the far back of her hollow eyes. She took the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbowl from Johanna and began to take small bites of the fish stew.
As she swallowed, she turned to look at Johanna. “I'm craving sweet corn pie.”
“All right. I'll ask the housekeeper to bake you one right away.” Johanna let out a breath of relief to see that
Genevieve had finally got herself together. Without hesitation, she hurried downstairs to ask the housekeeper to
bake the pie.
When Johanna returned to the room once again, however, she saw Genevieve lying on the floor.
Genevieve had smashed the bowl into pieces and used a shard to cut her wrist. Fresh blood had stained
Genevieve's clothes while her face had turned as pale as a piece of paper.
Johanna let out an ear-piercing scream before rushing forward and wrapping up Genevieve's bleeding wrist with
towels.
Genevieve had a coagulation disorder. Even though her wrist had been tightly wrapped up by towels, fresh blood
kept gushing out of her wounds. Before they could even reach the hospital, Genevieve's breaths were getting
shallower and shallower.
The doctors immediately rushed Genevieve into the operating room and commanded the nurses to get blood from
the blood bank.
When Timothy got to the hospital, Johanna collapsed into his arms and broke down. “I-It's all my fault. I-I didn't keep
an eye on Genev. She broke a bowl a-and use a broken piece to cut herself...”
Timothy was feeling anxious as well.
“There's still some of Marilyn's blood left,” Timothy comforted Johanna as he stroked her head gently. “Genev will
be fine. Don't cry.”
Once the blood transfusion was done, Genevieve's blood loss was recovered. She had barely made it out alive.
Nevertheless, Genevieve was stuck in a nightmare. The memory of her killing another person and Amanda's
passing kept resurfacing in her mind. The emotional torment caused her breaths to be unstable when she was
unconscious.
Harry had been at the hospital all that while.
He did not enter the ward Genevieve was in. However, through the listening device on Johanna's phone, he knew
that Genevieve's condition was unpleasant.
Guilt overwhelmed Harry. If he had not let Genevieve go to Baykeep, she would have remained by Amanda's side.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat way, Amanda would not have lost her life to a high fever.
Jesse also mentioned that Armand had suffered from a heart arrest because of Amanda's passing and was being
treated in the military hospital.
Harry turned his gaze mindlessly to the window. To his surprise, he noticed a black Chevrolet outside the hospital.
Seeing the familiar license plate on the Chevrolet, Harry narrowed his eyes as he walked to his laptop on the coffee
table before switching it on.
Genevieve was asleep for a long time. When she woke up, she stretched her arms and felt a dull ache on her wrist
as she moved.
Cooper had been working in the waiting room. Upon hearing movement, he quickly figured that Genevieve had
woken up and immediately head to the bedside. “Genev, how are you feeling? Are you feeling any pain anywhere?
Any discomfort? Do you want me to call the doctor?”
Genevieve shook her head in response and pushed herself up into a sitting position.
She accepted the cup of warm water from Cooper. After sipping on the water, she finally felt much better. Feeling a
little confused, she asked, “Why am I in the hospital?”
Cooper did not answer. He merely took out the food from the thermal lunch box and placed it on the table silently.
“Where's Lucian and Mandy?” As Genevieve spoke, she caught sight of the bandage on her left wrist. Opening up
the bandage, she saw a huge scar. The wound had almost healed.
All of a sudden, she remembered everything.
