Chapter 1057
Renee turned to the man, clearly confused. "Weren't you risking your life just to leave? Why the sudden change of
heart?"
"I just wanted to show you that none of you could stop me if I tried to leave. So, if I do stay, it would be of my own
volition," Stefan replied arrogantly.
"But... why?" Renee still couldn't understand. However, she now believed that Stefan was telling the truth, he did in
fact have the ability to escape this place.
'But wasn't he missing Seraphina? Why is he so willing to stay now? This makes no sense!'
"You mentioned that I risked my life to leave, but you risked your life to save me as well. That shows that we aren't
just hospital buddies as you said..." Stefan paused, then

He wasn't sure if he had lost parts of memories, but he could tell that this 'Renee Everheart' had played an
important role in his life. Otherwise, her existence alone wouldn't have been such an uncomfortable topic to
Seraphina, and even his mother.
Since everyone else wasn't willing to tell him the truth, he had no choice but to look for answers himself.
Renee froze. After a moment of silence, she spoke up softly.
"If you'd really like to know, then cooperate with us on your recovery. Once you regain your sight, you'll be able to
see my face. Maybe then you'd remember who I am."
"That sounds good," Stefan said, displaying a genuine smile he hadn't shown since losing his sight. "I look forward to
that day."
Renee didn't reply, mixed emotions stirred with her chest as she thought, Maybe... when you do see me, you'll
realize how unworthy I am of being in your life!'
When Stefan returned to the sanatorium, he no longer disobeyed orders. Hence, Margaret conducted a full body
check up on him, only to leave her shaking her head and sighing repeatedly.
Renee felt rather anxious as she stood nearby. She was worried that this might give Stefan unnecessary pressure,
and requested Margaret to step outside for a moment."
Margaret, how is he now? Is it possible for him to ever see again?"
Margaret seemed troubled. She wanted to say something, but stopped herself. After some struggling, she finally
explained, "Miss Ren, I'll be honest with you. His sight isn't the biggest issue here. His pulse indicates that his
condition is worsening, especially his brain. He might have suffered severe trauma, which led to the blood clot in his
brain. We should first think of ways to nurse him back to health, or else he..."
Margaret couldn't bring herself to explain further. Her diagnosis was similar to Layla's, in that Stefan was in quite a

"Severe trauma? Blood clot? Then... Can we still save him?" Renee turned pale, panicking since she merely thought
Stefan sustained external wounds. She had always believed that his constitution was fine, and didn't think it'd be so
severe.
"Calm down, it's a good thing you brought him here in time. We're not too late yet. My father, who I severed ties
with, was an expert in curing blood stasis. I learned some skills from him back then, so we should let him try some
medicinal tea for now."
"Once his brain has healed, his eyes might even recover along with it." Margaret patted her on the shoulder,
consoling the woman gently.
"That'd be great!" Renee sighed in relief. She was secretly happy that she was shameless enough to have
kidnapped him in time. Otherwise, healing him would have become mere wishful thinking.
"But... There is still a small issue..." Margaret seemed reluctant to speak again.
