Chapter 372 The Truth
Anaya stopped and wanted to walk toward the car.
However, she had just taken a step when she withdrew her foot.
Anaya thought, I have broken up with Hearst. What is the point of me going to see him now?
She stared in that direction for a few seconds and was about to retract her gaze when she saw Hearst get out of the car.
Anaya took a few steps back and hid behind a tree by the side of the road.
Hearst, supported by Samuel, walked into the hospital and went to the integration building.
The bodyguard did not understand Anaya's actions and asked doubtfully, "Ms. Dutt, are we not going back?"
"You can go back first. I have something to do and will be back soon." Anaya handed the bodyguard all the things in her hands.
Then, she went in the direction of Hearst and Samuel before the bodyguard responded to her.
Samuel sent Hearst into the examination room and waited by the door.
Anaya came out of the elevator and instantly met Samuel's eyes.
Samuel was shocked and subconsciously wanted to hide.
However, the corridor was empty. Other than a row of chairs, there was only him and a few bodyguards guarding the door. There was no place for him to hide. He could only watch Anaya walk towards him.
Anaya looked at the tightly closed door in front of Samuel and asked, "What is wrong with Hearst?"
Samuel stammered, "Hearst isn't sick. He just came over to have health care..."
Anaya's face was cold as she said, "If he isn't sick, why would he need you to support him?"
Samuel couldn't find an excuse, so he could only remain silent.
Anaya strode forward, ready to push the door open and enter the examination room.
Several bodyguards lined up in a row, blocking her way.
Samuel quickly came over to pull her and said, "Anaya, Hearst is having a check-up now. You can't interrupt him."
Anaya shook off his hand and said, "Didn't you say that he was here to have health care? Why does he need a check-up?"
Anaya had no expression on her face, and there was a hint of ridicule in her eyes.
"This... Before he has health care, he needs a check-up to confirm his physical condition."
Facing Anaya's doubtful expression, Samuel couldn't continue to make up, and his voice became lower.
"Samuel, tell me the truth. What's wrong with him?" Anaya took a step closer to Samuel. She was slightly shorter than him, but her momentum was not inferior at all. "Otherwise, I will contact someone to break in right
now.
"This way, even if you don't tell me, I will know what happened to him."
Samuel hesitated for a long time, scratched his head in frustration, and
simply told the truth. "Cristian drugged him. We..."
Seeing that Samuel was about to tell Anaya the truth, the bodyguard at the side quickly reminded him. "Mr. Jennings, Mr. Helms said that..."
Samuel gestured to the bodyguard to be quiet.
During this period, he watched Hearst and Anaya torture each other. So he constantly wanted to tell Anaya the truth for Hearst.
Anyway, he couldn't hide it now, so he might as well just tell Anaya the truth directly. Then he would relax.
Samuel continued to say, "Cristian has always liked to study poison. He
often uses stray cats and dogs to do experiments. A few years ago, when Hearst had just returned to the Helms family, Cristian poisoned him.
"Hearst was lucky enough to survive at that time. Under his father's pleading, he only broke Cristian's legs.
"Hearst has been in poor health these past few years and needs to take medicine to recuperate. When you came back with him, Cristian repeated the same trick and poisoned Hearst again.
"The poison he used this time took effect slowly. We didn't notice it at first. It was not until Hearst had a nosebleed not long ago that we found out about this matter. When we came back to find Cristian, he
had already run
away.
"We have been looking for a solution recently, but because we haven't been able to find Cristian, Hearst's treatment has to be delayed. He can only rely on ordinary medicine to alleviate his illness, but he has never been able to
cure it."
Anaya tried to understand what Samuel said. "So, this is the reason why Hearst broke up with me?
"He doesn't know how long he can live, so he wants to push me away?"
"Yes."
"He is really..."
Anaya suddenly did not know what to say. Her chest seemed to be blocked
by something heavy.
Objectively, she could understand the reason why Hearst did all this, but subjective, she hated his choice.
Hearst was always used to protecting her. No matter what he encountered,
he always refused to talk to her and always wanted to face it alone.
But Anaya was his girlfriend, the one who should support him and face all
the difficulties together with him.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Hearst thought his choice was good for Anaya, but he never asked Anaya
about her wishes.
If Anaya knew about this matter after Hearst passed away...
As soon as she thought of this possibility, Anaya felt a burst of pain in her
heart.
Anaya thought, no, I won't let him die.
During this period, he lied to me and tormented me. I didn't get even with
him!
When he recovers, I will make him pay the price for all the grievances I have suffered during this period!
"How is Jared now?" Anaya sorted out her thoughts.
Samuel answered truthfully, "He is not in good condition. He is often in so
much pain that he can't sleep at night. He occasionally has a nosebleed and his muscles are weak. This morning, when I entered his bedroom, I saw him lying on the ground, holding the edge of the bed, but he couldn't stand up..." When he mentioned the scene he saw in the morning, Samuel couldn't help
but feel uncomfortable.
After all, he was Hearst.
In the past, when Hearst was stabbed, he was able to stand straight without changing his expression.
But this morning, he was like a seriously injured beast, trying to stand up,
but he could only try in vain.
He was in a sorry state like a crippled person.
Although Hearst soon recovered, the scene was deeply engraved in his
mind, causing Samuel to feel that his hatred for Cristian rose to the peak. Just listening to his description, Anaya felt extremely uncomfortable.
She calmed down and asked, "Cristian has a way to treat Hearst, right?"
"Yes, but he went abroad. We couldn't find him."
"Are you sure he went abroad?"
"There is a record of him in Customs & Border Protection."
"Is it possible that the record was forged?"
Samuel understood what Anaya meant and asked, "Anaya, do you mean
that Cristian didn't go abroad?"
"I'm just guessing," Anaya recalled the figure she saw on the side of the
road the night before yesterday. "Did you confirm Cristian's leg injury before? Is he really unable to stand up, or is he pretending?" Samuel said, "We confirmed that his leg was indeed broken, and there was
a low possibility of healing him."
Anaya said, "In other words, it is still possible to cure his legs."
"I can't rule out this possibility. Anaya, have you found any clues?"
"I saw a person who looked very similar to Cristian in a supermarket two nights ago, but the person's legs were not broken." Samuel's expression immediately became serious. "I will ask someone to search that area now."
Recently, when they were looking for Cristian, they placed disabled people
with wheelchairs as the first priority. Instead, they ignored the search for
normal people.
If Cristian's legs were cured, then he might still be in Ottawa.
Samuel still had to stay here, so he called the others to find the person.
When he hung up the phone, Anaya asked, "What are Jared's plans for later?"
