Chapter 2032


    As if grasping at a lifeline, Ayden held Betsy so close, as if trying to physically meld her into his own


    body.


    It was written in Osmond’s case files.


    That day, Betsy asked him countless whys, and her tears were almost dry.


    Osmond even provided her with a counseling session,


    The scene of their reunion was so emotional, so touching, that even Natalie, with her usual icy


    demeanor, didn’t stand in their way anymore.c2


    In order to encourage Ayden to ept his treatment, Betsy promised him that she would be there with


    him every day, as long as he cooperated with his therapy.


    The psychological treatments of thirty years ago were not as advanced as today.


    Rosalynn read through the treatment ns listed in the case files, the yellowing paper only enhancing


    the feeling of pain and suffocation that was evident all those years ago.


    But Ayden persevered, motivated by the promise of seeing Betsy each day.


    Half a year passed. Spring was in full bloom when Ayden’s condition was finally brought under control.


    The case files noted his discharge from the hospital on April 8th.


    Turning the pages of the file, the next record was a yearter.


    Betsy was dead. Because Ayden had rpsed, attacking Natalie at their home before being sent back


    to Osmond.


    Upon his return, Osmond noted: “The patient is unusually agitated, a significant change from before”


    Underneath this was a transcript of Osmond’s sessions with Ayden.


    “Natalie is heartless, she knows Betsy saved my life! She should be grateful, shouldn’t she? But she’s


    not. She told me that Betsy was a good girl, that she agreed to let us be together. But she said I must


    still marry another woman and that Betsy could be kept on the side. She promised Betsy wouldn’t be


    mistreated!”


    “What does she think Betsy is? She not only said these things to me, but she even went to Betsy!


    Betsy is in pain! I won’t get married with another woman, I won’t, not even if they kill me. I only want


    Betsy, I can’t live without her


    “Betsy’s dead, she’s dead! It was Natalie! Natalie must have hired someone to kill her! I was so close,


    so close to killing Natalie and avenging my Betsy! Dr. Lange, I’m in so much pain. Every cell in my body


    aches. Stop treating me, let me be!”


    “What kind of professor are you? Did Natalie’s dirty money make you forget your ethics and your


    duty?!”


    “Just treat me, I’ll cooperate. When I get better, I can leave, right? Only when I leave can I avenge my


    Betsy”


    The words were silent on the page, but Rosalynn could almost hear Ayden’s hysteria and despair.


    After that, Natalie started visiting more frequently. She had to manage the Silverman Group’s business


    while worrying about her son whom she’d driven to insanity.


    ording to the visitation records, Natalie came almost every week.


    Much more often than what Jaime had found in the flight records.


    Three years passed like this, and Ayden’s condition fluctuated.


    Perhaps it was fate.


    One day when Ayden was feeling well, and he managed to leave his room.


    By chance, he overheard a conversation between two new interns.


    “Patient 6 has been surprisingly calmtely”


    “He’s on and off He’ll probably have another episode soon”


    “Have you guys ever seen his other personality? The one who killed his fiancée and eviscerated her?”


    “Who told you that? one of them asked, shocked.


    1 identally saw it in his case file”

    “If you don’t want to die, you’d better not mention this again!”


    The interns were startled


    These details were found in Ayder’s suicide note at the end of the case file. He had written, “They were


    too busy being afraid of my mother to notice me, the person involved, standing night behind them”


    Perhaps it was the mere mention of the incident that triggered something in Ayden
