Chapter 392
A loud knocking was heard on the door, and I couldn’t help but wonder who it could possibly be at this hour. I dragged myself to open the door and was surprised when I saw Julia standing outside.
She was still dressed in the same clothes from the night before, and her bloodshot eyes made it obvious that she hadn’t slept a wink. “Where’s Chris? I have something very important to tell him.”
I glanced at the bedroom from the front door and hesitated for a bit before replying, “He’s inside.” Julia clearly doesn’t know about the potent drug that Mitchell gave Christopher, but Darius is still very mad about it at the moment. They’re bound to get into a fight if they see each other now…
“Why are you still standing in my way, then? I have urgent business, and I need to see my son right now! Put your clothes on, Chris! I’m coming in!” Julia then pushed me aside and barged into the house. Because I was very weak at the time, I lost my balance and fell down after being pushed.
Earlier, Christopher got incredibly rough after regaining his strength, and he couldn’t control his force even though he knew it was me. While showering, I realized I was bleeding down there and had bruises all over my body, especially around my waist where the slightest touch would hurt like hell.
“Mom? You’ve got the audacity to come and see Chris after what you’ve done?” Darius asked as he came out of the bedroom. He then helped me to my feet when he saw me struggling to get back up and sat me down on the couch nearby. “I’ll have the doctor examine you after he’s done with Chris.”
“No, that won’t be necessary.” Are you kidding me? Do you want me to have a male doctor examine a wound on my vagina? I’d rather kill myself than let that happen!
“Darius? What are you doing here?” Julia was surprised to see Darius come out of the bedroom. Her eyes were wide in shock as she observed our interaction and noticed the wounds on my neck and arms. Her face went pale when she saw his clothes being worn inside out, and she took a step back in disbelief before slapping me across the face.
“You b*tch! Are you seducing Darius too? I’ll kill you!” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The slap was so hard that it took me a while to regain my composure and realize what was going on. The sight of my wounds and Darius stepping out of the bedroom at five in the morning would indeed leave plenty of room for imagination, but she seemed to have forgotten the fact that Christopher was home as well.
“Have you lost your mind, Mom? How could you set your own son up like that? Have you lost all sense of logic and reason whenever Monica is involved?”
Julia’s lips were pale, and she pointed at us with trembling fingers as she asked, “Me? Lose my mind? What have you two done, you insolent wretch?”
Fortunately, the doctor came over to the door and asked me, “Ms. Tanner, you’ve been with your husband the whole night, right?”
It felt a little embarrassing, but I was worried about Christopher and nodded profusely in response. “Yes, that’s right.”
“Doctor, how is my husband? Is he okay? What side effects will the drug have on his body? Is there any permanent damage?” I asked as I stood up and dragged myself toward the doctor, using the wall
as support.
Darius too, ignored Julia and ran up to us. “How’s my brother doing?”
The doctor shot him a glance before replying calmly, “Mr. Lane is incredibly fortunate that Ms. Tanner was able to find him and relieve his urges in time. However, that drug contains some ingredients that could lead to permanent impotence. It’s often given to women at nightclubs and bars. While the damage isn’t as bad when used on men, he would still require a lot of care to make a full recovery. He will be fatigued and experience weakness in his muscles for a few days. Remember, he must not have sex until his body recovers completely, or it could also result in impotence.”
