Chapter 12
Chapter 12 Finley rushed into the bathroom and cautiously picked up Sofia, who had fainted on the cold floor. A touch of surprise graced his expression. How was she so light? It’s not like he hadn’t held her before. Back then, she still weighed like an average woman. But now it was like holding a bag of feathers. Finley settled down and carried her to the sofa in the other room. Sofia had soiled the entire bed with her blood. He pulled out his phone and dialed Justin. “Mr. Stewart?” Justin didn’t dare leave his post and waited at the elevator doors. “Have Dr. Paul come over to my room. Someone passed out.” Justin was silent for a moment, but he quickly recovered and called Dr. Paul to examine someone at the Charming Bar. Ending the call, Justin shook his head and smiled bitterly. His boss was just too cruel. How long did it take for that woman to faint in his clutches? Finley asked Meroy to have room service clean the master bedroom, and soon after Dr. Paul arrived with a medical kit.. 0.00% Chapter 12 que vouchers Everyone who worked under Finley understood his nature, including Dr. Paul. He had been Finley’s personal physician. for a few years. He was a tall, well-kept man in his late twenties. Yet, Dr. Paul was already a well-known medical doctor. Compared to Justin’s nervousness, he always kept a calm and demure demeanor. “Mr. Stewart,” Paul greeted as he walked in carrying his suitcase. Finley nodded to the sofa in the living room and ran a hand through his hair. “The patient is in there.”
Paul raised a surprised brow. Never had he seen Finley so panicked. Before his heart condition was diagnosed, Finley was known for his calm demeanor. So, who was this person that unsettled the typically composed Mr. Stewart? Curious, Dr. Paul walked into the living room and almost dropped the suitcase case in his hand when he saw the woman lying on the sofa. Was that Sofia? What happened to her? Why was her dress in tatters?
“Go on! Find out what’s wrong with her!” Finley’s expression turned grim. Paul didn’t dare delay, and he crouched in front of Sofia. After a few moments, he looked up at Finley, who was pacing anxiously behind him. Chapter 12 “Mr. Stewart, please step out for a moment.” 1288 Vouchert The pacing was interfering with Dr. Paul’s ability to focus. At his request, Finley inhaled a sharp breath and walked out of the living room to gaze at the city skyline from his French. windows. His heart was beating rapidly, his irritability unable to be suppressed. It made him itch for something to do, anything to keep him from thinking about the woman in the living room. Finley clenched the cigarette between his long fingers, rolling and rubbing it nervously as time seemed to come to a standstill. After a few minutes of torture, Paul came out of the room. “Well?” Finley turned to look at the doctor. Paul’s face displayed a mix of shock and concern as he turned to Finley and spoke, his lips moving slowly. “Mr. Stewart, Miss Campbell is in a fragile state. I have administered an IV to her, and she should be able to rest peacefully for a while. However, I highly recommend taking her to the hospital for a
comprehensive examination.” Finley’s brows furrowed in confusion as he responded, “What are you trying to say?” Paul felt a little wary about the man standing opposite to him. “Miss Campbell has experienced significant gastrointestinal Chapter 12 11 bleeding and will require hospitalization for a period of time to recover,” Paul explained. “She’s also been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, compromised lung function, and her heart condition isn’t stable.” Finley’s expression turned even more grave as he absorbed. the information. “Was she…was she abused?” Paul didn’t answer that question. Paul could sense that Finley was especially concerned for Sofia. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have allowed her to be present in this place. It was a known fact that Finley never brought women here, not even Miss Grey, who was on the verge of getting engaged to him. Now that there was a woman here, and Finley seemed to care for her, Dr. Paul didn’t want to keep anything from him. “Answer me, Doctor.” The cigarette Finley was holding dropped to the ground as he stomped out its flames. “The extent of her injuries is quite severe,” the doctor explained cautiously to Finley. “Her vocal cords have been severely damaged as if someone forcefully made her swallow something toxic. Also, she has numerous wounds all over her body, with the ones on her face being the most visible. It seems that she has suffered from a combination of old and new wounds, which indicates a history of abuse.” “It seems like she was cut with a sharp object often, and some of her wounds are deep.” Paul’s tone was kept lowered and cautious as he gazed at Finley’s handsome yet darkened features. 40.02% Chapter 12
He suddenly didn’t dare say anything else. However, during the examination of Sofia’s body, the doctor also noticed a h***tal scar on her lower abdomen, resembling a cesarean section scar. Upon closer inspection, the doctor found the cut unusually large and inconsistent with typical C-section scars. At that moment, Finley couldn’t bear to continue discussing the physical traumas any further. Dr. Paul decided to respect Sofia’s privacy and opted to ask her about it discreetly later on. Recently, Justin mentioned that Mr. Stewart became emotionally unstable due to this woman, and there were concerns that discussing her injuries might further exacerbate his condition. “I understand.” Finley took a deep breath, his brows knitted, indicating he was deep in thought. He may have sent her to prison, but he never intended for anyone to harm her. What did she endure during those three. years of confinement? He and Sofia knew it was over that day, and they would share no future together. Finley had thrown her into her cell and avoided news related to her like the plague. He wanted to forget her, thinking that three years was enough to forget someone. But he didn’t expect that Sofia would be abused in prison. He had ruined her family but didn’t kill her. But who had given her those scars? Finley’s panic surged as he subconsciously glanced at the 57.00% Chapter 12 798 Vouchers woman lying on the bed in the inner room. He couldn’t help but wonder if she believed he was responsible for her suffering. Paul excused himself and left the room.
As Finley approached Sofia, who lay there pale and curled up like an abandoned kitten, a sharp pain pierced his heart. He instinctively clutched his chest, recalling the injury he had sustained during his underground boxing days. The strenuous exertion during that time had caused a minor issue with his heart, leading him to quit drinking and smoking. These last few days, he had been drinking and smoking intensely, causing his heart problems to flare up. The smoking probably kept his heart from aching for this Campbell woman. Finley m***y psyched himself up and slowly raised a hand to touch her face. He carefully tucked Sofia’s hair behind her ear, revealing the shocking scar on her face that looked like was caused by a knife. Finley’s eyes turned cold as his fingertips grazed the scar, but he quickly withdrew them as if they had been burned. He then turned and sat on the other side of the sofa, watching the sky darken, did not turn on the lights as he fixated on looking at Sofia’s thin silhouette. After a few hours, the medication Paul used kicked in, and 73.27% Chapter 12 734 Vouchers Sofia woke up disorientated as she realized she was on a sofa. The room was dimly lit, with only a wall light casting a soft glow. Sofia wondered about the time and whether Daisy had finished work yet. But her vision cleared, and she jumped, startled at the man sitting on the couch across from her. Half of his handsome features remained hidden in the shadows. It felt as if he were a predator lurking in the dark, ready to pounce and unleash himself on her. Sofia quickly sat up, pulling off the IV from the back of her hand, wincing as the needle moved inside her skin. “Lie back down if you don’t want to die.” Finley got up and strutted over to her, grabbing her fidgeting
hands, his voice so cold it made Sofia shiver. What did Finley want to do with her? He could have beaten her up or mutilated her other hand, but he actually wanted to… Finley had almost raped her. Sofia didn’t dare try to stay in the wolf’s den and decided to keep pulling the needle out the back of her hand.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
