No ordinary human being could understand why Steven was 60 adamant about his perspectives.
âIs that kindâhearted doctor still in Huma?â I asked, still feeling concerned, I distrusted Steven because he was too bloodthirsty at times. When I asked him if heâd killed a man before, he hesitated and didnât answer me, which showed clear deflection on his part.
Did Steven actually kill people before then? Was it connected to the orphanage serial killer case?
âThe doctor is still in Huma.â Ewan nodded.
I sighed in relief. Investigating the matter would be far easier now, especially with eyewitnesses from that incident still present today.
âLetâs go back.â I was scared Steven would get hysterical again once he woke up.
Ewan nodded. âMrs. Lincoln, I brought you over because I hope youâll better understand Mr.
Lincoln⦠Mr. Lincoln didnât have fortunate beginnings. He needs unconditional love and care.â
I understood Ewanâs intention. He thought Iâd be the one to save Steve. We were husband and wife now, after all.
But⦠I could never be Stevenâs savior. Steven wanted love, something that couldnât give him.
I could only do my best to be kind to him and pray that Steven wainât one of the murderers from the orphanage murder caseâ¦
But after my visit today to the asylum, I was scared that Steven mightâve actually killed. someone before. I was worried he might be connected to the serial killings.
What should I do if I found evidence that he was the one behind them? Should I hand him over to the police?
I kept on going through Saint Sahns Asylumâs records and articles from the past on the way back.
The whistleblower was a kindâhearted doctor who reported the incidents for Chiater 142 the patientsâ sake.
217 He ended up pissing off the asylumâs director and the other doctors in the process. In the end, the doctor lost his leg in a car accident and was now crippled.
But when some netizens asked the doctor whether he regretted doing what he did and putting himself and his family at risk, the doctor replied that someone had to do it regardless. Someone had to bear that burden and shed some light on the darkness.
âMrs. Lincoln⦠weâre here.â
The car came to a stop while I was still in the midst of reading those articles.
Many people shared their hellish experiences at Saint Sahn Asylum. They claimed that the asylum director had a thing for watching attractive people be tormented, and those doctors he hired were the real psychos there.
I couldnât imagine what someone as handsome as Steven wouldâve experienced there.
He was the kind of person who refused to yield and would continuously fight back. That would only agitate his tormentors and inflict more pain on him.
I was already trembling from how tense I felt after reading the articles.
I couldnât imagine how desperate Steven mustâve felt then⦠being tormented over and over again.
If I were in his shoes, Iâd probably kill someone too.
âStephie!â Steven yelled from the courtyard. None of the house helpers were able to restrain him as he searched for me, still barefoot.
Steven quietened down when he saw me. He came over and held me in his arms, saying hoarsely, Iâm scared, Stephieâ¦â
In that instant, I suddenly felt like what Steven was scared of was nothing more than losing me.
âStephany!â
Right when I was about to try and get Steven back to his room, Zionâs car suddenly came to a stop outside the center. He exited the vehicle in a hurry. âStephany! Have you seen Rachel?â
I replied, shocked, âRachel hasnât contacted me at all todayâ¦â
âSheâs gone missing!â
