Chapter 1292
Maja, cradled by lan, was already lying on the bed. However, she was far from sleepy. All she could feel was a
throbbing pain in her head.
‘Did Phelps ever tell you why my head hurts so much?”
“You suffered a head injury. There’s still some internal bleeding, which causes dizziness from time to time. You need
to rest‘
Maja finally relaxed in his arms, but within these short moments, her forehead was already covered in sweat.
lan’s hand was gently patting her back, reaching for a poetry book nearby
“Til read to you
His voice was soothing, especially when he was reading poetry
Maja initially felt wide awake, but his voice lured her into drowsiness
She felt both sleepy and blissful
In her hazy state she heard Mr. K’s voice again, just like the conversation she had overheard outside the study that
day
The voice was too close as if whispering right into her ear
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja was instantly filled with fear When she first woke up, she was told she had been in a coma for a few days and
could now speak.
Now after another nap, how long had she been out this time?
Her body stiffened as she listened to the voice talking beside her, which was discussing how to make her obey
She felt as if she had been paralyzed, until a hand started to roam her body
Frightened, her breath became ragged as she desperately tried to avoid the intrusion, but her body felt heavy, too
heavy to even lift a finger
Let go of me Let go of me
She forcefully knocked away the hand on her, her face pale as she attempted to roll off the bed, but Mr. K’s voice
came over again.
“Maja, this is the price you pay for disobedience Who told you to remove that earring? I am very angry now”
“I said before, whether we can cooperate depends on you, but you’ve disappointed me
K’s tone was as gentle as ever, but he was a master of disguising his true intentions
Maja felt her body stiffen She couldn’t hear anything clearly anymore, only Mr. K’s instructions on how to torment
her
“Get away get away!”
Sweat was streaming down Maja’s forehead, completely oblivious to the fact that she was tightly gripping lan’s wrist
Her fingernails even dug into his skin, staining it with blood.
lan seemed oblivious to the pain as he pulled her into his arms
“Maja, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me like this, okay?”
His tone was pleading especially when he saw her staring blankly at the ceiling, which made his heart ache
Maja opened her mouth slightly, feeling as if countless voices were swirling in her mind
Roaring, pleading she felt nauseous
The voices were too chaotic, making her want to vomit
She pushed lan away abruptly attempting to get off the bed, but she forgot that she was still blind, and ended up
falling off the bed. Luckily, lan caught her in time
He held her tightly, his heart pounding with lear
“What do you need? I’ll carry you there
Maja nodded, her face completely drained of color
He carried her to the bathroom, where she began to vomit after finding the sink.
lan gently wiped the sweat off her forehead Did you have another nightmare?”
“lan, my head hurts so much. There are so many people talking in my head, saying all sorts of things I can’t hear
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmclearly, but it’s so annoying. I just want some peace sleep it hurts
After vomiting she quickly rinsed her mouth.
lan held her in his arms
Til call Phelps over again
Maja leaned weakly against him
“Give me some painkillers or sleeping pills. I don’t want to hear those strange voices anymore, especially Mr K’s He
said he would torment me, and you too He succeeded.
I feel terrible
Seeing her like this, lan felt his heart breaking.
He even called Bernard, asking him to send Eric over
Eric was a genius doctor who had access to the research base He must know what was wrong with Maja
In the meantime, lan also asked someone to fetch Phelps
Two men who had achieved numerous accomplishments in the medical field, surely they could figure out the cause
of her condition
Patric arrived promptly. He had recently revealed to Bernard that he knew about the chip As a result, his superiors
were closely monitoring him, forbidding him to interact with anyone unless he was willing to hand over the chip
However, if he did hand it over Enc would become disposable to some extent. No one would care about his fate,
and those in other countries who were still hoping for the chip would ruthlessly target him.
