Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 705

Chapter 705 

“Your question wasn’t rude or anything, it’s just that you hit the nail on the head, and that’s a bit awkward for me” 

Well, since we were already on this topic, Granny Luisa spilled her doubts. “I had suspicions that Brennen might have wanted to harm Marc, but unfortunately, I didn’t have any proof, so the matter was left at that.” 

Comelia was taken aback by this. “Granny, when did this happen?” 

Granny Luisa sighed deeply, and then said, “This happened many years ago. Back then, Marc was just a three–four–year–old kid who was still craving his parents‘ love. One day, Brennen, who didn’t really like him, said he was going to take him to a theme park, and he went in high spirits. 

“Around nine in the evening, Marc hadn’t returned, so I called Brennen, and he said the driver had already picked Marc up. But the driver responsible for picking up Marc said Brennen told him he could leave, that he would take Marc home himself…. 

“We didn’t know who was telling the truth, but Marc didn’t come home that day. We sent many people out looking for him, even called the police, and they helped us look for him too. 

“That night, hundreds of people searched all night, but we couldn’t find him. The next day, a staff member on patrol found him unconscious in a haunted house in another theme park about ten kilometers away from the amusement park that Brennen had mentioned. 

“Such a small child, yet someone had taken him to a terrifying haunted house. I can’t imagine how many times he was frightened, or how scared and desperate he must’ve felt… 

“Anyway, when we got there, Marc’s little body was quietly lying on the ground, looking lifeless. 

“Many people thought he was dead, but I refused to believe it. I had Dr. Lester and others rush him to the hospital immediately, contacted the best doctors around, and after a day and night of rescue, Marc’s life was saved. 

“But in the following month, Marc didn’t say a word. In the hospital, he would curl up into a ball under the blankets, and when he got home, he stayed in his room and wouldn’t let anyone close his door. If someone closed his door, he would scream and shout, and he was even afraid to go to the bathroom by himself…” 

Comelia clenched her fists as she listened. Such a small child, locked in a haunted house overnight, only a heartless person would do such a thing. 

Cornelia speculated that the root cause of Marcus‘ claustrophobia might have been this incident. If the cause was found, he could be treated specifically and helped to cure this disease. 

That day’s events were still fresh in Granny Luisa’s mind. “Marc was less than four years old, locked in a haunted house. Can you imagine how scared, how desperate he must’ve been…. 

“What made me most angry was Brennen. The child had an accident, and he only came home to check on him on the third day. He even said, ‘Isn’t the kid still alive? You’re making a big fuss about it, making it seem like someone in our family has died.
