He Gave Me Hearing, Then Taught Me What Silence Really Means novel Chapter 372

Meanwhile, Juniper leaned against the headboard and saw Yvonne Saint walk in from outside.

Yvonne probably got the news not long after Nelson sent her to the hospital.

Yvonne's eyes held a gentle smile as she slowly sat down. "It hasn't been many days since we last met. How did you lose so much weight again?"

Juniper felt like throwing up just hearing this woman's voice, so she didn't respond.

Yvonne rested one hand over the other in an elegant posture. "I heard your father passed away, and it was suicide. Do you know why he killed himself?"

Juniper's eyelashes trembled as she turned to look at her.

Yvonne unhurriedly revealed the agonizing truth. "Because I knew Nelson went to find you that day, I followed him into your father's room. I scolded him for making a deal with you, and the terms of the deal were to sleep with you. Right in front of your father, Nelson said he would throw you away once he got bored. Maybe your father couldn't accept that the daughter he was so proud of was actually selling herself for his sake. After all, in his heart, you were still that good girl who went to a prestigious university."

Juniper's fist clenched instantly. She grabbed the cup nearby and smashed it straight at Yvonne.

The cup broke the skin on Yvonne's forehead, but she didn't seem to care about the pain. "Do you know that with this strike, I could have you locked up in prison for the rest of your life? Juniper, I warned you a long time ago not to pester Nelson, but you wouldn't listen. Now both your parents are dead. This is karma."

Juniper didn't completely break down, because she had long known Yvonne's true face. She suddenly became very calm. "Mrs. Saint, you always sternly warn me not to get close to Nelson, but you never warn your son. It seems you know he won't listen to you. Your marriage is a massive failure. Your husband has another woman on the outside, even a son. It's perfectly normal that living in such a rotting marriage would turn you so extreme."

Yvonne hadn't expected this truth to be exposed by Juniper. Furious, she stepped closer and raised her hand to slap her.

Juniper was waiting for her to come close. She fiercely grabbed Yvonne by the hair and slammed her head against the nearby wall.

"Juniper Lane!"

Juniper's ears were ringing, and she forced a smile. Her mouth was stained with blood.

Yvonne scoffed. "Does it break your heart to know your father's death was related to Nelson? Juniper, this is the price you pay for cursing the Saint family. I refuse to believe you can still shamelessly get close to Nelson. Your father's soul in heaven won't rest in peace. I wonder how much it hurt when he tried to pull out his own oxygen tube. He probably regretted giving birth to a daughter like you, right?"

Juniper smiled. Because there was blood at the corner of her mouth, she tasted iron when she smiled.

She was indeed heartbroken, practically crushed by Yvonne's words.

But she knew that the more Yvonne feared this, the more afraid she was of her getting tangled up with Nelson.

She lowered her eyelashes, her tone suddenly turning very light. "You guys forced me. You're going to push me to become a psycho..."
