The news was so terrifying that it filled Adriana with despair. She didn’t dare to take another step
forward. Her only hope rested on Jean. She hoped to hear words of hope from him.
Jean’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and his voice was hoarse to the point of being unrecognizable as
if he was speaking with a mouthful of sand. “She’s still alive. Is the doctor here yet?”
Upon hearing those words, Adriana suddenly burst into tears, unable to utter a single word.
Chad was also terrified, his eyes filled with heartache. He quickly nodded in agreement. “They’re here,
waiting
inside.”
Jean subtly nodded, holding Neera in his arms, and strode in.
When the doctor saw Neera’s terrible condition, he was genuinely taken aback. “Ms. Garcia, she’s…”
Jean spoke in a cold voice. “She has fainted, her body is trembling, and her body temperature is very
low.”
As he spoke, he gently laid Neera on the bed.
The bedroom remained exactly as it was when Neera left. However, the person in the bedroom was no
longer the same as before she left.
The doctor didn’t dare to slack off and promptly conducted a preliminary examination.
When her temperature was taken, the doctor’s brow furrowed. His expression was very serious. “Ms.
Garcia’s body temperature is significantly below normal. We must warm her up as quickly as possible,
otherwise the situation could be dire.”
Upon hearing that, lan immediately turned on the air conditioning in the room and increased the
temperature. At the same time, he said, “I’ll go find some hot water bags.”
After speaking, he quickly left the room and descended the stairs.
The doctor looked at her drenched clothes and said, “Just doing this won’t be enough. We need to
change Ms. Garcia’s clothes first and dry her off. Otherwise, she’ll only get colder.”
At that moment, Adriana also came in. Hearing that, she immediately volunteered, “I’ll do it.”
However, Jean said, “Let me do it.”
Without delay, he scooped up Neera and carried her into the bathroom.
As he filled the bathtub with hot water, he couldn’t help but recall the moment when he kicked open the
warehouse door and what he saw inside.
On the first floor, there was a bathtub. Inside it were floating ice cubes, not yet fully melted. One of
Neera’s shoes was still submerged at the bottom of the tub.
At the railing of the second floor, a slender figure leaned, with more than half of her body exposed,
teetering on the edge of danger.
It was as if a gentle breeze could make her fall at any moment.
At that moment, he felt as if his breath was about to stop. His heart seemed to be tightly gripped by an
invisible hand, almost crushed. The pain was so intense that he couldn’t help but shudder slightly.

The moment he pulled the trigger, his eyes were filled with malevolence, radiating a bloodthirsty
gleam.
However, looking back, he felt that doing so had really let that crew-cut man off too easily.
Back then, he shouldn’t have acted impulsively. Instead, he should have spared that man’s worthless
life.
He should thoroughly torment the crew-cut man, let the latter taste what it was like to be in extreme
pain.
Lost in thought, his eyes filled once again with a deep crimson. The bloodshot corners of his eyes
looked somewhat terrifying, a hint of malevolence subtly dancing across his brow.
It was Neera’s soft whimper that pulled his thoughts back from the brink of fury.
“Neera? Are you awake?” He quickly turned around, lifting Neera from the chaise lounge.

However, Neera had her eyes tightly shut. Her brows furrowed deeply as if she was in great pain yet
unable to wake up.
The bathtub gradually filled with hot water, and the steamy heat permeated the entire bathroom.
Jean was drenched in a thin layer of sweat due to the intense heat.
Yet, he couldn’t care about anything else. He scooped up Neera sideways and gently placed her into
the bathtub..
As the hot water filled up around Neera’s body, she seemed to sense something. In her unconscious
state, she restlessly shifted, seemingly resisting.
Jean’s heart ached terribly. With a hoarse voice, he gently stroked her face, comforting her. “Don’t be
afraid, Neera. It’s just hot water. Don’t fear. I’m by your side. No one can hurt you anymore.” novelbin
In her unconscious state, Neera seemed to hear his gentle voice. Gradually, her brows unfurled, and
her body began to relax.
Next, Jean carefully undressed her.
The marks of the beatings she had received gradually appeared before his, eyes, grotesquely vivid.
When Jean saw the crisscrossing scratch marks, he was first taken aback. Then, a fierce and ruthless
aura suddenly erupted from his eyes. His entire aura instantly became terrifying, as if it wanted to
deyour everything and destroy the world!
He had noticed the scars on Neera’s body, but he never imagined there would be so many!
He simply couldn’t fathom how Neera managed to endure so many beatings!
She was so delicate, her skin so tender, yet she became like that.
He wondered what kind of inhuman torment could have left so many shocking scars on her body.
In an instant, Jean clenched his teeth tightly, his large hand forcefully forming a fist. It trembled slightly,
the bones of his knuckles cracking as if they were about to be crushed.
Yet, the woman in the bathtub remained with her eyes tightly shut, oblivious to everything around her.
She was as tranquil as a lifeless doll.
Watching her like that, Jean suddenly lowered his head, his shoulders subtly trembling.
After a while, a whimper, akin to that of a trapped beast, escaped from his lips.
His voice was intermingled with malice, rage, and heart-wrenching pain.
After a while, when the hot water had warmed Neera’s body a bit, Jean draped a bathrobe over her and
carried her
out.
Inside the bedroom, Adriana and Chad were anxiously waiting.
They could all tell that when Jean came out, his eyes were frighteningly red.
Adriana hurried forward, eager to see Neera.
Yet, Jean quickly and carefully placed Neera on the bed, making sure to tuck her in snugly with the
blanket.
“Where’s the hot water bags?” He turned to look at lan, who came over with hot water bags.
Jean stuffed a few into Neera’s quilt, careful not to burn her. Then, he straightened up and asked,
“Where is the doctor?”
Chad pointed toward the door. “I’ve arranged for a female doctor to come and prescribe some medicine
downstairs. Given the circumstances, it may be inconvenient for her. Once the medicine is ready, could
you apply it to Neera?”
Jean nodded slightly.
After the doctor had prescribed the medication, she gave a few more instructions. “Ms. Garcia has
mostly superficial injuries, but we can’t be sure if there’s any internal damage. I suggest waiting until
her body temperature returns to normal, then taking her to the hospital for a full-body check-up. Also,
she may develop a fever. If it doesn’t subside after a while, you should immediately take her to the
hospital. Don’t delay.”
Jean meticulously noted everything down, then, holding the ointment, he returned to the bedroom.
