Chapter 1286
Ninian’s eyes welled up immediately. She never would
have guessed that Everett would try to bite his own
tongue!
Guilt slowly crept into her heart. She could not imagine what she would do if something bad happened to Everett as a result of her actions earlier.
Duncan rushed over quickly with a towel in hand and forced Everett’s mouth open. There were already signs of bleeding within the mouth cavity.
“Bite the towel, Everett!” Duncan said sharply.
Everett continued to struggle and would not listen to any of the words.
“Everett! Everett!” Ninian said anxiously while patting his face in an attempt to bring him back to consciousness. “Please listen to us, Everett. Open your mouth and bite the towel. Don’t worry, everything will be okay really soon!”
Her words had an immediate effect.
Despite being disoriented, Everett still obeyed and
opened his mouth.
Duncan quickly shoved the towel into his mouth.
Ninian exhaled a sigh of relief. She even shed some tears of joy.
Alden was watching the whole thing unfold, but with mixed emotions in his eyes.
He was well aware that controlled humans were
completely devoid of their own sanity.
That was why, at the time, his mother could end up walking into Harold’s room with a knife.
But Everett was able to hear Ninian’s words…
Everett’s feelings for Grapie were much deeper than he could have ever imagined.
He silently backed out of the room, picked up his phone, and dialled a number.
