Chapter 412
“I’m not going to hurt her, Chris. Don’t get all jumpy, will you?” Julia shouted at him and tried to drag me
out with her. However, Christopher stepped up to stop her. “I said no!” he answered adamantly.
“Chris!” I pushed him softly, telling him to stop.
However, he didn’t let me go. “Now that everyone’s here, I think it’s time to make things clear once and
for all. Let’s not waste anybody’s time.”
“What are you talking about? We’re in the hospital, and Monica’s still recuperating. You’d better not
make things worse.” Julia was starting to panic. She thought Christopher was going to say something
bad, so she tried to stop him.
“What do you think, Monica? You don’t want to drag this out anymore, don’t you? Especially with how
the media is talking about me. Honestly, they’re getting on my nerves.” Christopher was still holding my
hand tightly, but he was looking at Monica sharply.
I had no idea what Christopher was talking about, but Monica wasn’t looking too good. It was as if she
was… afraid. All the color drained from her face, and she clutched her head. “M-My head hurts, Julia. It
hurts…”
“I’ll get the doctor right away. They’ll be right here, so don’t worry.” Julia quickly called the doctor after
Monica said she wasn’t feeling well. A momentter, a doctor and some nurses came in to check on
Monica.
Monica was lying in the bed, looking as weak as a wilting flower. She was so beautiful and weak, or at
least that was what I would think if I hadn’t found out what she did. If I didn’t know any better, I would
have felt guilty for hurting her.
Christopher was gazing straight at Monica. “I see. You’re worried I might expose you,” he blurted
something out, not giving her any chance to defend herself.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Chris. If you really hate me that much, you can leave. I’m really
tired, and I don’t want to argue with you right now.” Monica held her head with one hand, her eyes half-
closed.
“Chris!” Julia shouted. “Get out!”
“You know what I want to say, don’t you? You knew it all along.” Christopher ignored Julia and hugged
me. “After we came back from the ind, you told the doctor to spike my and Eve’s meds with a
debilitating drug, didn’t you?” Christopher yed with my hair, asking Monica coldly.
I froze up, for I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I couldn’t believe Monica was already drugging me
when she had just met me for the third time.
“Julia, I want them out, please. I’m really feeling ufortable right now, and I don’t want to see them.
Please tell them to get out!” Monica suddenly screamed like a maniac, and she squirmed on her bed
violently. The nurse was trying to inject some meds into her, but because of her sudden movement, the
needle pricked Monica’s arm and drew blood instead.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
Julia went over to her in an instant to calm her down. “Calm down, Monica. I’ll chase them out right
away.” Then she shrieked at us, “You heard her! Get out! You’re not wee here!”
“You’re scared, aren’t you, Monica? Scared of me exposing the truth.” Christopher refused to get out. “I
didn’t want to tell anyone about this because I still think of you as my sister. But what did you do? You
kept using my mother’s guilt to hurt the woman I love.”
“Julia! Julia!” Monica started crying helplessly, clutching at the air. She looked at Christopher in horror,
pleading for his mercy. “Please, Chris. Please don’t tell them! Please!”
I nced at Christopher. This was the first time I saw him looking so determined. The me of fury was
roaring in his eyes, threatening to engulf everything in its way. I had never seen Christopher looking so
terrifying before. He looked like a different person, but I wasn’t afraid at all. Instead, I huddled closer to
him.
“Don’t tell them what? About how you spiked my meds and kept me in aa? About why I was
wheelchair-bound after I woke up? About how you yed a part in that?”
