After Rebirth She Strikes Back (Simone) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117

Simone had no memory of what happened to herself. Worried he might upset her, Cyrus didn’t mention it. When Simone asked him about it Cyrus quickly changed the subject.

“Simone, you must be starving. Dad got you your favorite porridge from Sundrift Avenue. Why don’t you have a little first?” Cyrus asked.

As he spoke, Cyrus thoughtfully set up the linle table and laid out all the food in front of Simone,

Once he was done, Cyrus asked everyone else to leave the hospital room, and then quietly stepped out himself.

Outside, the Irwin family all nummed to look at George. Cyrus lowered his voice and asked, “What’s really going on? Why can’t Simone remember anything?”

George let out a long sigh and said helplessly. “Simone’s condition is much worse than before. Every time Simone loses control, she ends up hunting herself. Afterward, she forgets all about it?

George’s face grew even more serious and continued, “Simone didn’t hurt herself this badly at first, but it’s gotten worse. She’s been hurting herself more. And since she doesn’t remember it when she loses control, she’s in danger anytime.*

George warned them seriously, “Simone’s situation is really severe right now. You all need to keep a close eye on her emotions.”

The hospital room was quiet.

After the others left, Simone didn’t eat right away. She lifted her left hand and slowly unwrapped the bandage from her wrist, layer by layer, until the deep red wound was exposed. Simone thought. Td hurt myself again.”

Simone pressed her lips together, staring blankly at the gash and thought, It was deeper than before. If this kept up, would I end up killing myself one day?

Simone let out a cold, bitter laugh and said, “What a monster.”

Simone thought with self–disgust, I really was a monster. No wonder nobody loved me. Who could love someone like me? Still, I’d make sure all who hurt me paid before I went. This was just the beginning!

A twisted smile tugged at Simonc’s lips, a flash of madness in her eyes. The porridge on the table had gone cold; Simone hadn’t touched a single bite.

When the Irwin family came back in, this was what they saw the food on the table, untouched, not even a spoon moved.

Simone was lying on her side in the hospital bed, her arm limp at her side, her eyes empty and lifeless. Simone was so quiet, it was almost eerie. The Irwins had never seen her like this before.

rlet anyone get to her.

The Simone they knew was always in control, no matter who she was with or what she faced, Simone never

But now, curled up silently on the bed. Simone looked just like a wounded little animal. It was heartbreaking.

The Irwin family watched, feeling as if a piece of their hearts had been torn away. The pain was unbearable.

Cyrus would have preferred Simone to argue with him like before, rather than see her looking so fragile and broken

Cyrus walked over to clear away Simone’s untouched, cold food, asking. “Simone, don’t you like the porridge? Then, he caught sight of white gauze on the floor and saw blood seeping through a large patch of bedsheet from Simone’s injured wrist.

“Simone, why did you take off the bandage?” Cyrus’s expression changed instantly and asked. He immediately called for a nurse to come and re- bandage Sune’s wound

Simone stayed silent, quietly cooperating the whole time. But the more Simone kept to herself, the more it tore Cyrus up inside.

Once Summone’s wrist was bandaged. Cyrus asked gently. “Simone, what do you want to eat? Dad will go get it for you right now.

Simone didn’t move. With her back to him, she replied in a flat voice. Ti not hungry.”

Cyrus was about to say something, but Simone spake first. “Can you all leave! I’m tired and want to for a while.”

Cyrus and the rest of the Irwin family exchanged glances, then quietly left the hospital room without another word.

The Irwin family all looked teuse, their faces dark and their moods just as heavy

“And why should I?”. Nolan looked up and answereil, his eyes colil.

Cyrus stared at Nolan, his voice icy. “Hecause I’m Simone’s father”

Nolan let out a low laugh, clenching his fists. “Cyrus, F’in Simone’s Uicle Nolan. I have every right to see her. You don’t get to order me around There’s no way I’m staying ancay from Simone.

“If it weren’t for Sunone, I would’ve warned you a long time ago. I don’t care what you’re after, but I won’t let anything or anyone put my daughter in danger.”

Cyrus thought, before Simone, I never thought much of Nolan. But ever since Simone came into the picture, Nolan felt more and more like a

Cyrus still couldn’t shake off what Nolan had said to him after that car accident years ago.

A few years back, Cyrus and Nolan fought tooth and nail over who would inherit the Irwin Group. That battle only ended when Nolan’s accident left him unable to walk.

After Nolan’s injury, he rarely showed his face in public. People said he’d been crushed by his disability, but Cyrus knew better. Even in a wheelchair. Nolan never gave up on the Irwin Group.

Nolan had been quietly building his own power behind the scenes, and his attacks on the Irwin Group never really stopped

Rumor had it in high society that Cyrus was the mastermind behind the car accident, all to wipe out Nolan, his biggest rival. Nolan believed it, too.
