Chapter 391: Chapter 390: Truly Tormented

Aiden Shaw didn’t dare linger long, holding her as he quickly left.

The servants in the villa were taken aback at the sight, Tiana Thorne was covered in blood, as if she had been stabbed multiple times.

What happened?

How could it end up like this?

Is Tiana dead?

Everyone looked at each other, afraid to ask more.

…

Hospital.

Tiana Thorne was rushed to the operating room.

Jesse Rivers frowned, looking at the tightly closed door ahead of him.

He thought of a possibility in his mind.

Master Four’s wine, treasured for nearly twenty years, had been completely consumed by Miss Tang in one go.

But not entirely.

There was a little left in the bottle, and Master Four, unable to bear losing his cherished wine, drank the rest.

Could it be that Master Four, in heartbreak, stabbed Miss Tang?

Uh…

It seems Master Four isn’t that petty.

But considering Queenie Grant and Crystal Donovan’s docked wages…

It’s hard to say.

“Jesse Rivers.”

Jesse Rivers jolted in surprise, quickly responding, “Ah, Master Four?”

“Tell May Sloane about Tiana Thorne’s situation, and ask the crew for leave.”

“Okay, I’ll go right away.”

After Jesse Rivers left, he was the only one left in the corridor, looking at the tightly closed door with increasingly deep eyes.

No one could have imagined that she was full of vitality just before, bewitching with charisma, and now she was at the brink of life and death.

May Sloane and Jesse Rivers arrived forty minutes later.

Jesse Rivers saw the operating room light still on and felt a bit uneasy.

May Sloane’s eyes reddened instantly, her heart pounding nonstop, thinking how one night apart led to such a situation?

No wonder her eye kept twitching all day, it turned out something bad happened to Tiana.

When looking at Aiden Shaw, hidden within her eyes was anger, she lowered her voice as much as possible, yet couldn’t hide the slight blame in her tone, “Master Aiden, what happened to Tiana?”

Aiden Shaw’s voice was a bit hoarse, “Massive hemorrhage.”

Massive hemorrhage…

May Sloane’s face turned pale again, her eyes losing focus for a moment.

As a woman, the first thing that came to her mind regarding massive hemorrhage was the uterus, and she was immediately horrified, “What did you do to my Tiana?”

Aiden Shaw looked at the anger in her eyes, gently frowning, “What does Miss May think?”

May Sloane thought he had assaulted Tiana, and quite cruelly…

Aiden Shaw’s lips gradually curved into a faint, almost elusive smile, raising his eyebrows, with a tone slightly mocking, “Didn’t Miss Tang tell you about my condition?”

May Sloane felt utterly embarrassed for a moment.

It was the first time she’d seen impotence described with such gusto, as if implying the unmanly one was her.

May Sloane apologized, saying, “Sorry, I misunderstood you.”

“Mm.”

He replied lightly, without further words.

May Sloane’s feelings were very complicated.

If not Master Aiden, then what on earth happened…

Why did it become like this?

With a feeling of unease, they waited in the corridor for a long time, and finally, an hour later, the door opened.

The leading surgeon took off his mask, lightly sighed, “After a series of resuscitations, the patient is out of danger.”

Out of danger…

May Sloane’s heart skipped, she asked anxiously, “What exactly happened to her? Why was her life in danger?”

“Who here is the patient’s family?” the doctor asked.

May Sloane looked at Jesse Rivers, then at Aiden Shaw, but couldn’t pinpoint any of Tiana’s family members.

After a moment, Aiden Shaw asked, “What’s needed from the family?”

May Sloane: “…”

This remark sounded as if staying in a hospital didn’t require informing family.

“The patient’s condition is quite special, if there’s another massive hemorrhage, the uterus would have to be removed to save her life, a family member needs to be present.”

May Sloane’s face turned ashen after hearing this, “How could it be this serious?”

If her uterus were removed, her entire life would be over.

Especially since Tiana cherished her beauty more than life, losing her uterus would accelerate aging, cause spots, and lead to various symptoms…

This was more severe than taking Tiana’s life.

After contemplating briefly, May Sloane said, “Doctor, we’d like to admit her first. I’m her agent. We’ll wait for her to wake up and follow her own wishes, is that okay?”

The doctor looked at Aiden Shaw, aware that this hospital belonged to Master Four, so naturally, his words mattered.

“Jesse Rivers, handle the admission procedures,” Aiden Shaw said.

Upon hearing this, the doctor then said, “When the patient wakes, inform her of her condition immediately. I will have a nurse come over to inquire about her decision.”

“Thank you, doctor.”

Only then did May Sloane feel relieved.

Afterward, Tiana Thorne was wheeled out.

May Sloane watched her pale visage, her heart ached, uncertain of what Tiana had gone through, wondering how someone in perfect health ended up like this.

She could only hope the heavens would treat her kindly.

Once they reached the ward, May Sloane realized that Aiden Shaw had come too.

May Sloane stood up, politely saying, “Thank you this time, Master Four.”

“Take good care of her.” Aiden Shaw’s tone was like a supervising superior reassuring a subordinate, without excessive personal emotion.

May Sloane nodded, “I will.”

Aiden Shaw said in a deep voice, “Her condition was due to menstrual hemorrhage, a few days of rest and she should be fine.”

May Sloane understood his meaning.

He wanted her to relay this to Tiana to prevent any negative emotions affecting her recovery.

“Mm, I understand.”

Aiden Shaw took one last look at the now very fragile Tiana Thorne before turning and walking out.

Once in the doctor’s office, he sat down.

Dr. Caldwell, the leading surgeon, seeing him arrive, softly said, “Master Four.”

“Tell me, what exactly is her condition?”

“She has a chronic toxin in her body that has been there for some time, presumably since she was young. As a result, she has severe uterine cold and inflammation, especially the uterine cold is very severe. Every menstrual period would be a hundred times more painful than the average girl, and it was due to this drug being triggered during her period that she had a massive hemorrhage.”

Aiden Shaw: “Drugged?”

“The specifics of the drug can’t be determined, but it affects her fertility, making it very difficult for Miss Tang to have her own children in this lifetime.”

Aiden Shaw kept his head down, silent, a chill slowly spreading around him, cold and fierce…

Especially the light in his eyes, so cold that it repelled anyone who dared to approach.

He remained silent, and the doctor dared not speak.

“Is there any possibility of a complete cure?”

The doctor furrowed his brow, contemplating for a long moment before replying, “At present, there’s no such possibility, because the poisoning has been ongoing for at least ten years. During the recent examination, we discovered the patient’s uterus was malformed, which was surgically corrected to be like a normal person’s. However, she will suffer greatly with each menstrual cycle and it’s challenging for her to conceive.”

Aiden Shaw reclined in his chair, remembering her pitiful demeanor when she suffered from menstrual pain.

He had once suspected her pain might be somewhat theatrical.

Not until today did he realize she truly was suffering.

He interlaced his fingers, applying some pressure.

His alluring Adam’s apple moved, his breathing deepened, and he looked up, his gaze chilly, reconsidering how to question the doctor.
