Chapter 50 Got Tired
Faye was seven years old when Mr. Nash and Madam Nash had a car accident.
That day was one of the few joyful days that Faye remembers.
Mr. Nash promised Madam Nash that he would return to family, and he took her on an outing in great delights.
The joyful expression on Madam Nash was obvious, and little Faye laughed along in the back seat.
Perhaps it was because of Mr. Nash was in a good mood that day, he drove at a fast speed of 120 mph the whole way.
Later, when the car was driving on a winding high-speed road, suddenly a large truck passed by their side.
Mr. Nash was already driving fast, and so was the truck. The two cars were about to collide, Mr. Nash slowly stepped on the brake to slow down, but unexpectedly, the brake didn't work at the time.
Mr. Nash struggled for a moment, he looked at Faye sat behind the right front seat, turned the wheel, and hit the guardrail on the side of the highway.
A tremendous sound came.
Mr. Nash and Madam Nash, who was sitting behind the driver's seat, died on the spot.
When Faye was carried out of the car by the traffic police, she was scared to death, and her face was full of tears.
Later on, the traffic police found out that the car crash was not an accident, it was because the car's brake had been tampered with.
Someone had done something to Mr. Nash's car, and Mr. Nash's family both agreed that it was Madam Nash who did it.
After all, it was not a day or two for Mr. Nash and Madam Nash to try to get divorced; it was also not a day or two that Madam Nash threatened to kill Mr. Nash, the man who failed her.
Just like that, the deceased Madam Nash became the arch-criminal, and the dead couldn't tell.
At the funeral of her parents, Faye didn't even shed a tear.
Her uncles and aunts called her an ingrate for being indifferent.
A child supposed to be comforted by all people when her parents died suddenly became the object of abuse at this time.
After the funeral, Faye was sent to an orphanage.
Faye was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder in the orphanage.
When saw Faye was deeply immersed in her memories, Jake knocked on the desk twice with his signing pen.
Faye regained her consciousness, her palms were sweating a little, "Sorry."
Jake smiled gently, "You don't need to apologize to me. Did you think of the past again?"
Faye nodded and answered truthfully, "Yes."
Jake said, "Actually you are doing well given the background you have. Don't push yourself too hard. At least, you can live and make friends normally now. The only thing missing is that you can't have a normal relationship."
Faye sighed, "I don't like being in a relationship."
Jake smiled at her, "Faye, it's not about what you want. If you hadn't experienced those things, you would be a normal person, and you told me you don't want to be in love, OK, I get it. But your situation is different, do you get it?"
"Yes," said Faye.
After a brief conversation, Faye looked down at the watch on her wrist. "It's getting late. I got work to do. I'll come back another day."
Jake got up to see her off, "You should hang out with your friends more often, don't be alone by yourself."
"Okay," Faye said.
After Faye came out of Jake's office. A young nurse stepped forward, "Dr. Thomas, just when I handed Miss Nash a glass of water, I found her hand shaking."
Jake put his hands in the pocket of his white uniform. "Looks like that dream last night scared her pretty badly."
