My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 1020
At the moment, Tiffany was wearing a hospital gown. She leaned against the wall, and walked forward little by little. However, it seemed that her body was extremely weak. After just a few steps, her body swayed and she almost fell down.
Nelson quickly rushed toward her and reached out to hold her.
"Mom!"
Tiffany's entire body trembled. Her ice-cold hand firmly grabbed onto Nelson's hand.
The next second, she raised her head, and her eyes were filled with pleasant surprise.
"Nelson? You've come here to see me?"
Nelson's eyes were slightly teary as he spoke, "I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't know that you were ill. If I had known, I would have come to visit you earlier!"
"It doesn't matter!" Tiffany shook her head. "You were busy. At least you're here now!"
"Let me help you to your ward!" Nelson said.
Tiffany nodded. After she returned to her ward, she began to enthusiastically introduce some of her things to Nelson.
"This is delicious. Why don't you have a try?"
When Nelson took a look at it, it was actually just an ordinary piece of bread.
"What food do you like to eat? I'll buy you more."
"There's no need for that! It's good enough to have such a simple meal. Do you remember when we were living a hard life when you were little? There was once when you had cried out of hunger, and a kind man had given us two dollars. I then used the money to buy you this bread!"
Nelson nodded. How could he forget about the past?
During that period of time, Tiffany failed to disclose all details about their past. Truth be told, they would starve for several days.
Nelson felt that he might have starved himself to death at that time!
Tiffany failed to tell him that she had knelt down to that man to beg for that particular piece of bread. However, the man actually felt disgusted instead, and said that they were beggars who were blocking his way, proceeding to throw that piece of bread into the trash can.
Tiffany had picked the bread up from the trash can and torn the dirty parts, quickly handing it to Nelson.
She herself had secretly eaten all the dirty parts of
the bread!
As he thought of the past, Nelson's heart ached again.
"Mom, I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing for? I'm fine now. Fortunately, Miss Chilton helped me and arranged for such a good doctor for me."
Monique shook her head and replied, "It's nothing, Auntie!"
Later, after Tiffany chatted with Nelson for a while, the doctor entered for an examination, and Nelson came out of the room.
Nelson asked the doctor a question when he came out from the ward.
"My mother is still so young, so how could she suffer from such a serious disease?"
The doctor sighed and said, "This illness has nothing to do with age. Furthermore, when your mother was sent to our hospital, she was extremely weak. From what we understand, she was in prison for a few years, right?"
Nelson frowned slightly. The doctor hurriedly said, "Sir, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean any harm! After our investigation, we discovered that during her years in prison, she had suffered a lot. As a result, her body suffered a lot of serious damage, which resulted in her illness!"
The doctor sighed again and said, "Now, the only thing we can do is to take good care of her! We will do our best!"
Nelson frowned as he asked, "She suffered a lot in prison?"
"What's the matter? Are you still in a bad mood?" Monique asked. Then, she added, "It's okay! I've already told the doctor to give Auntie the best treatment and try not to make her suffer!" "Thank you!" Nelson said indifferently.
"You're welcome! I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. Why can't they let me have a good rest now that I'm back? If you need my help, you can contact my assistant!" "Alright!"
After Monique left, Nelson immediately dialed a phone number.
As soon as the phone call was connected, he heard whining from the other end.
"D*mn it! You've finally contacted me! It's been a long time since you've been back! Where's Richard? Didn't we make an agreement to go out for a drink together?"
"I'm sorry, Patrick. I have something to do this time, so I can't meet up with you! I'm looking for you because I remember that you are in the business of private investigators and you have a lot of friends. Can you help me to investigate some matters in Rosaville City?"
Patrick was taken aback and asked, "Rosaville City? Isn't that where you're from?"
"That's right."
"I have an old friend there who I haven't contacted for many years. However, as you know, it's not my territory. It'd be okay for me to investigate but it'd be difficult to take any actual action!"
"You don't need to take any action! I just need you to help me investigate Rosaville City's prison and what Tiffany Leon experienced in there!"
"Tiffany Leon?" After Patrick asked more questions about Tiffany, he then hung up on the phone call in a hurry.
Tiffany's voice came from the inside, and Nelson quickly entered.
"Mom..."
Tiffany was not in a good condition. She seemed to be having nightmares as her forehead was covered in sweat.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me! I'll listen to you, I'll do my job, don't hit me! Don't make me drink that water, I don't want to drink it!"
Tiffany became incredibly anxious, even beginning to hit herself.
She had an IV drip on her arm. As she moved frantically, fresh blood began to flow from her arm.
Nelson hurriedly rushed over to hold her hand. He said in a gentle voice, "Mom, it's me. Don't be afraid! It's fine now, it's fine!"
Tiffany heard Nelson's voice and finally quietened down.
After a while, she went back to sleep.
However, fear was still apparent on her face.
Nelson saw her helpless expression and felt extremely upset.
He spent the whole afternoon silently staring at Tiffany.
During the evening, his mobile phone rang. There was news from Patrick!
"Nelson, I've found something. I've sent the information to you through WhatsApp. Take a look at it!"
Then, Patrick sighed and said, "I'm sorry, but some bad things have indeed happened to her. I hope you won't become too sad upon seeing them!"
Nelson felt that the results of the investigation were not too positive, and he no longer had the mood to chat with Patrick. So, he quickly hung up on the call and opened the document.
There was a lot of information. He opened the file, and read it bit by bit.
Everything that Tiffany had experienced in those years in prison was much more serious than what he had imagined.
There had been a dedicated personnel who was in charge of watching her in prison. Every day, he would torture her. Not only that, but Tiffany had also attempted suicide seven times in prison but she had failed each time.
More than once, Tiffany was discovered with feces all over her body, her clothes ragged...
Nelson no longer dared to read on. He stretched his hand out and pushed Tiffany's sleeve up. There were indeed several slit wounds on her wrist.
Looking at it, he suddenly felt his eyes starting to burn. Then, a tear from him dripped onto Tiffany's arm.
"Mom, I'm sorry!"
After he calmed down, he quickly called Patrick again.
"How could such a thing happen in prison? Help me to investigate those people..."
"There's no need for that!" Patrick said. "I've already checked everything. Turn to the last page. The information I've found is there. That personnel seems to have been arranged to deal with her by someone with the last name Granger."
