He Gave Me Hearing, Then Taught Me What Silence Really Means novel Chapter 239

When Juniper got back to her apartment, she immediately applied the ointment. As her fingers grazed the bruised skin, she squeezed her eyes shut, fighting desperately to ignore the crushing waves of humiliation.

The cool relief numbed the worst of the ache. She curled up on the sofa, pulling her knees tightly to her chest in a deeply protective stance.

The memory of Lydia's taunts echoed in her mind, leaving her feeling utterly powerless.

Her phone suddenly shattered the silence. When she answered the call, Brooks's voice came through the speaker.

For a man who had accomplished absolutely nothing in his life, losing the use of his legs was the equivalent of his entire world ending.

He had spent years believing it was just a tragic stroke of bad luck. Never in his wildest nightmares did he imagine Nelson was behind it.

Nelson!

When the truth was delivered to his hospital bed, the sheer force of his rage sent him tumbling onto the floor. His legs screamed in agony, his body drenched in cold sweat.

He hated Nelson with every fiber of his being, yet he was completely paralyzed to do anything about it.

He violently slammed his fists against the hospital floor, his teeth grinding together as tears streamed down his face.

"Nelson! Nelson!"

He clenched his jaw so hard he thought his teeth would shatter. Beside him, his newborn baby wailed loudly.

Beatrice rushed back into the room and immediately dropped to her knees to help him up. "What happened? Why did you fall?"

"Mom! It was Nelson! Nelson ordered his men to break my legs! He thought I pushed Josie into the pool that night, but I don't even know his kid! I was just standing by the water! I was just standing there doing absolutely nothing, and he destroyed my legs! He's doing this to punish our family because of how Juniper obsessed over him years ago!"

His heart bled with pure hatred. He had even been told that Juniper had spent last night sleeping with the man who ruined him.
