He Gave Me Hearing, Then Taught Me What Silence Really Means novel Chapter 336

Master Zale sighed, closing his eyes for a few seconds. "My intuition tells me whatever happened was incredibly dangerous. Otherwise, Professor York wouldn't have refused to tell me the truth even after two years of me pressing him. Very few people in the industry even know he had a stroke. He's confined to a wheelchair now. He can speak, but he's completely paralyzed from the neck down. His mind, however, is still as sharp as ever."

That timeframe matched the period when Juniper had escaped from the psychiatric hospital—the exact memories she had blocked out.

She couldn't remember how she got out; she only remembered Lucas's abuse and her own frantic begging.

During college, both the professor and his wife had been incredibly kind to her. Knowing she came from a poor background, Professor York had even set up several part-time jobs for her on campus.

When she wasn't in the library, Juniper was soaking up knowledge from Professor York—things that couldn't be found in textbooks. She often studied so hard she forgot to eat or sleep. That was why, even when she was dating Nelson, she prioritized her studies, much to Nelson's annoyance.

But Juniper always felt she needed to carve out a brilliant future for herself so she would be worthy of standing by his side.

She had been so full of drive back then. She survived on three hours of sleep a night and still radiated energy.
