Seeing  Patricia shut her eyes without uttering a word, the nurse simply figured she must have been too exhausted to make small talk.

Placing her medicine on the table beside her, she exclaimed, "Miss Sampson, Mr.Reynolds is really sweet on you! He was fraught with worry that no one would be looking after you, so as he was leaving just now, he instructed us to take good care of you! Is he very busy with his work?"

When Patricia didn't reply to her question, she just scoffed and added, "Miss Sampson, I have placed the medicine on the table for you.Do remember to take it later.This medicine can only be taken at night, and it will aid you in sleeping.Mr.Reynolds informed us that you didn't sleep well last night, so he had asked the doctor to prescribe you something.You must remember to take it!"

The nurse left after her little speech.

"Bang!"

After hearing the door close with a slam, Patricia opened her eyes slowly, but not before she burst into tears.

At that moment, she didn't want to think about the meaning behind the nurse's words, nor did she want to figure out how Zac had known she hadn't slept well the previous night.

And even if she knew, she wouldn't speculate too much on it.

She endured another sleepless night.

She got up early the following morning, intending to return to the Sampson family.

To her surprise, as soon as she'd gotten up from the bed, in walked Giselle.

"Patricia, my poor daughter...What happened to you?"

The moment Giselle had pushed the door open, she had seen the gauze wrapped around Patricia's head.

Seeing this saddened her, so she went and hugged her daughter while bursting into tears.

"Mom, don't worry about me.I'm fine!"

Patricia patted Giselle on her back, trying to comfort her."Patricia, tell me.Are you really feeling better? I can't believe Sullivan was such a bastard! How could they do this to you?"

Through her tears, Giselle reached out to touch Patricia's forehead.

But she withdrew her trembling hand just before she could touch it, and covering her face instead, she continued crying.

Patricia tried to distract her weeping mother by saying, And even if she knew, she wouldn't speculate too much on it.
