A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 225

Hearing this, Kelly turns her head to look around, only to find that it is indeed as Ellison said.

The place here is indeed very desolate.

With the surroundings being surrounded by trees, it should be a vibrant scene. However, there isn’t a single household within a radius of ten kilometers around, making it look very desolate.

Kelly nods with a partial understanding, "It turns out that it is so..."

Although Kelly doesn’t quite understand why Ellison wanted to buy a villa in such a desolate place, she will disregard it for the time being.

After all, the most important thing now is to finish solving the things on Butler’s side first.

The villa hasn’t been cleaned up for a long time. And a thick layer of dust has accumulated on the inside of the villa, on the desk, on the fireplace, and so on.

Kelly reaches out and waves her hand in front of her nose as if such an action could make her inhale less dust.

The dust in the air makes her so uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Ellison quickly opens the dark compartment and then presses the switch. After that, the fireplace, which originally seems to be embedded in the wall, is slowly moving.

Soon, a deep entrance appears in front of their eyes.

Kelly slightly hesitates and then makes up her mind, walking with Ellison towards the inside.

The corridor is deep and dark. But the good thing is that there are wall lamps on the walls on the side. So it is not like it is completely pitch-black that they can’t see the way ahead.

Soon, they arrive at the bottom. Passing through an empty corridor, they finally walk to the front of a closed iron door.

After they knock on the door, someone soon comes over to open it.

The person inside looks through the peephole on the iron door. Only after seeing that the visitors are Ellison and Kelly does he open the door.

The person who opened the door is Simon, a retired military veteran.

There is a very hideous scar on Simon's face. If the ordinary girl sees his look, they surely will be startled backward by several steps. But Kelly doesn’t.

On the contrary, with a gentle smile on her face, she looks at Simon without any disdain or fear in her eyes.

Simon feels that Kelly gets a sense of calmness and solitude accumulated over the years.

Simon greets them both respectfully, "Mr. Ellison, Mrs. Kelly."

Kelly nods and then follows Ellison, walking towards the inside.

"Mr. Ellison, Mrs. Kelly, arrangements have been made according to your request, that is, to find someone to heal Butler."

Simon follows behind them. Upon seeing them sit down at the table, he stands behind them without moving as well, explaining to them in a low voice about what happened here over the day.

Ellison nods, "Bring her out."

Hearing that, Simon is stunned. But he nods and goes over there to have Butler, who is in a coma, brought out.

While Kelly sits there. And it is unknown what is going on in her head. Ellison doesn't say anything after a glance at her.

Soon, Butler is brought out.

At this time, Butler is in a coma. To be precise, she fainted in pain.

When she was given medicine, no pain relief measures were conducted on her. And the medicine was applied directly onto the flesh that had been torn off. And even a grown-up man will find the pain unbearable.

Although someone has already changed Butler's clothes, it is unknown why there are some blood stains on her clothes again.

There are some blood stains on Butler’s light shirt. And Kelly is stunned after seeing those bloodstains.

Ellison glances at her and purses his lips. Then he doesn’t say anything. Neither does he make any move to cover her eyes.

In Ellison’s opinion, Kelly will have to face some things sooner or later. And she has to learn how to face these things calmly.

If Butler alone can scare her out of her wits, then he simply has no idea about how she should face those things that are more frightening than this one in the future.

Kelly tries her best to calm herself down.

The horrible environment previously didn’t scare her. And now, it is just a little blood on the clothes. She surely won’t be startled with ease.

She, who understands the purpose of Ellison to bring himself here, doesn’t complain why he didn’t cover her eyes when she encountered such things.

Because she knows that from the moment she became a member of the Quinn family, she couldn’t avoid these things.

Instead of constantly running away and living under the protection of Ellison, she should learn to face them, overcome them, and cope with them.

After calming herself down, Kelly glances at Ellison beside hers and sees that he has no intention of speaking up. Then she understands roughly what he is waiting for.

Kelly says in a cold voice, "Wake her up."

Seeing that Ellison doesn’t show any signs of opposition, Simon directly fetches a basin of cold water and then pours it on Butler's body violently.
