Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1618 Auntyâ¦
Catherine was stupefied. Did Shaun call her Aunty?
âShaun, whatâs wrong with you?â Lea and Brennan immediately approached him.
âNo. Donât come closer. I donât know you guys.â Shaun used the blanket to cover himself and curled his tall figure into a ball. He was trembling.
Catherineâs heart sank. Lea and Brennan were dejected as well.
Brennan anxiously stripped the blanket away. â Shaun, Iâm your dad.â
âGo away. You look scary.â Frightened, Shaun began to bawl like a baby. âI donât want to stay here. I want to go home.â
âShaun, weâre your parents.â Lea held his hand with worry.
âNo, you guys arenât. My daddy and mommy arenât so old. You guys can be⦠my grandpa and granny.â
Shaun pouted and kept his hands to himself to stop them from approaching him.
Grandpa and Granny⦠Brennan and Lea were riveted.
Unable to watch on anymore, Catherine quickly gave Chester a call.
Upon learning the news, Chester, who had not returned home, hurried to the room. At the sight of Shaun, he was dumbfounded.
When Shaun saw Chester, he began to blubber in fear. âI donât want to see the doctor. Doctors are scaryâ¦â
Although Shaun could not recognize anyone, he held onto Catherineâs skirt, considering she looked pretty and gentle. âAunty, I donât want injections. â
Seeing Shaunâs handsome, tear-filled face, Catherine realized that his behavior could compare to Suzieâs. As much as she felt like killing herself, she had no choice but to endure the situation.
âAlright. No injections for you. The doctor just wants to take a look at your head.â She forced herself to calm Shaun down gently.
âUh⦠Thereâs nothing wrong with my head. I donât want an injection.â Shaun shook his head violently, looking frightened.
âBe good. I promise I wonât give you an injection. Let me play a little game with you.â Chester tried to put up with Shaunâs behavior and treated him like a kid.
They spent some time talking Shaun into it. When they finally managed to calm Shaun down, a few neurologists came and took turns examining Shaunâs condition. At last, a neurologist said, â Aside from the minor concussion, everything else is fine. Itâs our first time encountering such a condition. If itâs not caused by internal factors, Iâm afraid itâs due to external stimulation that took place before he was injured.â
âExternal stimulationâ¦â
After Catherine and Chester exchanged glances, their hearts thumped, and something crossed their minds.
Lea was so unsettled that her eyes reddened. â Doctor, is it possible to cure him?â
âWeâll try our best, but weâre not confident about it because thereâs nothing wrong with his brain.â The doctor forced a smile. â Based on my preliminary analysis, his intellectual capacity has regressed to the stage of a two-year-old.â
âTwo years old?â Catherine smiled ruefully. In this case, his intellectual capacity was even worse than Suzieâs.
âLetâs hope that his intellectual capacity will improve. If it doesnât, itâll be really troublesome.â The doctor sighed.
After the doctor left, Catherine glanced at Shaun who was sucking his finger on the bed. Then, she said gloomily, âI finally understand Wesleyâs motive for fooling him into showing up. It must be Sarahâs doing.â
âSarah forcibly evoked Shaunâs tangled memories to cure him, but she made him lose his sanity instead. â Chester clenched his fists so tightly that they cracked. âThat woman has become so vicious.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldâve killed her.â
âA cure? His memory canât be restored at all. She obviously meant to make him go insane. Iâve always been cautious not to let him recall the past, yet he still ended up in this state.â Catherineâs eyes reddened as she felt extremely upset.
