Despite being treated for three days, the wound was still terrible and even beginning to rot.
Even Sonny couldnât help but gasp at the sight of it.
Sonny asked Lonnie to fetch a basin of hot water from the bathroom, wiped off the bloodstains from Nathanielâs wound with a towel, and removed the rotten flesh with tweezers.
Nathanielâs forehead was covered in a cold sweat and blue veins stood out on his temples.
Seeing his agony, Sonny suggested, âDo you want me to give you an injection of anesthetic? Itâs too painful to bear.
â
Nathaniel shook his head.
âNo, I can endure the pain.
â
Sonny had no choice but to bite the bullet and apply the medicine to Nathaniel, despite the blood staining the ground.
Lonnie took the opportunity to clean up the mess.
From the corner of his eye, Lonnie noticed several figures rushing toward them.
Suspicious, he paused and looked closer.
âMiss Lucinda is back with Rickey and Pierre!â he exclaimed, his eyes widening.
Frowning, Nathaniel asked, âSo soon?â
After examining Lucinda and the others, Lonnie added, âShe came back on foot.
Kysonâs not with her.
â
Sonny quickened the pace of applying for the medicine while Lonnie hurriedly cleared the floor.
Lucinda was headed towards the garden.
Lonnie exclaimed in shock, âOh my god! There are still several bodyguards of the Simmons family lying on the ground in the garden.
She grew increasingly flustered as she made her way back to the villa.
Having been rescued by Nathaniel at the Crane Bridge on their Last encounter, she no longer harbored any resentment towards him.
Moreover, he had no obligation toward her.
Given that they were divorced, it was in her best interest to avoid seeing him altogether.
She had no intention of remarrying him or returning to the Roberts family and their suffering.
However, it didnât mean she could stand by and watch him die.
Her mind was in disarray.
Upon entering the garden, she saw Abel and the others lying on the ground.
