Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 558

Chapter 558Chapter 558
Laura groaned and gradually woke up. When she opened her eyes, she seemed disoriented, but her
gaze cleared up soon as she saw Jennifer. Yet, she became agitated after catching sight of Amelia.
“Jennifer, why is she here? Why did you bring her here after what she had put me through? Get her out
of here. I don't want to see her!” she yelled emotionally.
Jennifer hurried to Laura and bent over to hold the latter's hands. It was evident that she was hot with
emotion.
“Mom, do you know who I am?” she asked with red-rimmed eyes.
Ever since Laura was admitted to the psychiatric hospital, her mental condition had been unstable, and
she also suffered from episodes repeatedly. Sometimes, she could recognize her husband and
daughter. However, it only lasted fleetingly every time. Moreover, she could not think as clearly, so it
was rare for her to speak more than one sentence, much less identify others.
Thus, one could imagine how elated Jennifer was.
Laura calmed down and said, “Did something happen to me? You're my daughter. Of course, I know
you.” Distracted by her daughter's question, she forgot about Amelia, whom she loathed, for a moment.
After saying that, she reached out to touch Jennifer's face, only to find that her movement was
restricted. Looking downward, she belatedly realized that she was bound to the bed. Laura looked at Jennifer in horror and shouted furiously, “Jennifer, what is this? Why are you doing this
to me? Hurry up and untie me! I'm your mother!”
Upon hearing that, Jennifer felt as though a dagger had stabbed her heart, and she did not know how
to explain it to Laura.
“Mom, calm down. Something went wrong with your body, and you even banged your head against the
wall. The doctor had to tie you up to stop you from hurting yourself. But don't worry. You'll definitely be
cured. Dad and I will never give up on treating you,” she said while weeping.
At that, Laura slowly regained her composure.
“Where am I?” she then asked. Her expression made it seem like she had forgotten everything that had
happened.
“Mom, did you forget about everything?” Jennifer asked in disbelief as she stared at her skeptically.
“I feel like I've been dreaming this whole time. I kept seeing the Grim Reaper, and I was stuck in a
small dark house. I was frightened, and I screamed at the top of my lungs many times for help, but
nobody came. Instead, many fearsome creatures appeared before my eyes, and I was terrified...”
Laura's face twisted when she tried to recall her memories. Her voice trembled from fear as she
continued, “They were so scary. I was scared to death, but none of you came to save me.”
Jennifer hurriedly held her down to stop the latter from struggling. “Mom, calm down. It was just a
dream; it's not real. Look at you. Aren't you safe and sound now? Everything is okay. You're fine now
since you're awake. Don't worry. I'll stay by your side. Dad has something holding him up, but he will behere soon. We will protect you.”
Only after receiving her reassurance did she gradually recover her repose. “Was that really a dream?”
Jennifer nodded and said, “Mom, you harmed yourself because you sleepwalked. Dad and I were
worried sick, so we sent you here for treatment, thinking that you would fare better with the doctor to
take care of you. But you hit your head against the wall every night. At one point, you nearly killed
yourself, so we had no choice but to get them to tie you up. Although it pains us to see you go through
that, we can't afford to lose you.”
At last, Laura settled down.
However, her gaze darkened when she spotted Amelia from the corner of her eyes. “Why is she here?”
“I brought her here because I want her to know what Oscar has done to you. I also want her to know
I'm not getting back at her for no reason,” Jennifer said maliciously as she narrowed her eyes.
Laura instinctively shivered at the mention of Oscar, as the trauma he inflicted on her was seared into
her brain like a nightmare.
Looking weary, she said, “Ask her to leave. I don't want to see her.”
Jennifer nodded and straightened her body before uttering coldly, “Amelia, get out now. I'll let bygones
be bygones if my mom has recovered. After all, we can't do anything to the Clintons. We're not that
foolish to start a war that would only end in our defeat. However, I believe that what goes around
comes around. May your family fall apart soon!” Amelia shot her a look filled with conflicting feelings before turning around and walking out of the ward.
As soon as she left, Jennifer summoned the doctor, who gave Laura a checkup and discovered that
she had recovered miraculously. Not only could she speak articulately, but she also could think
coherently. It was as though Laura's early maniacal behavior was just a dream.
Consequently, the doctor unbound Laura and said, “Ms. Larson, it looks like Mrs. Larson is fine now.
However, I suggest taking her for another checkup in the hospital to be safe. However, I've never seen
a case like hers. Normally, it's very difficult for a psychiatric patient who suffers from hallucinations to
recover. I must say that it's a miracle to see her regain her consciousness so quickly.”
“Has my mom truly recovered?” Jennifer was a little skeptical at first. Despite the affirmation from the
doctor, she still felt like it was too good to be true.
“Yes. She's fine now. But, I still recommend a checkup in a hospital in the urban area. After all, it's only
a psychiatric hospital here,” the doctor replied.
“Okay. I'll do so. Can my mom be discharged now?”
“Sure. Let me arrange for the interhospital transfer. You can take Mrs. Larson to the hospital in the city
now. By the way, her body is rather weak, so she will need to undergo proper recuperation.”
Jennifer nodded vehemently, keeping the doctor's words in her mind.
After the doctor left the ward, Laura, who sat on the bed, looked at Jennifer with an odd gaze. “Jennifer,
this is a psychiatric hospital?” Jennifer bent over and answered, “Yes. Mom, your condition was critical, so the doctor suggested that
we send you here for treatment. We didn't have a choice. But this place is well equipped and tranquil,
and there is no yelling and screaming from the other psychiatric patients as imagined by others.
Therefore, we thought it was a suitable place for your recovery. Now that you're back on your feet, we
can leave here a moment later.”
Laura curled her lips into a faint smile.
She then gently stroked Jennifer's cheek and said, “Jennifer, you must've had a hard time. Look at you.
You've lost so much weight. It's all my fault.”
Nuzzling against her hand, Jennifer comforted her, “Mom, don't say that. You're my family, so it's my
duty to take care of you. I'm glad to see you getting well, but I'll still be willing to look after you for the
rest of my life even if you can't recover. By the way, I bet Dad will be exhilarated to see you when he
comes over later.”
All of a sudden, Laura appeared a little disoriented. “Jennifer, I actually feel bitter. I can't allow myself to
leave like a coward after the Clintons have harmed me to such a state. Avenge me, Jennifer. I want to
turn their family upside down,” she muttered.
Jennifer looked into her eyes and said hurriedly, “Mom, you haven't fully recovered. Your utmost priority
now is to recuperate. As for the Clinton family, I won't sit back and do nothing. I'll ensure that your
suffering won't be in vain. One day, you'll witness Oscar pay a heavy price for what he has done to you.
Please rest assured.”
“Jennifer, your words set my mind at ease. I can't remember what happened to me during this time, but
everything in my dream felt so real that I still couldn't forget them. I think they would haunt me for therest of my life. I must do something to let off my steam. Otherwise, I can never be at peace,” Laura
said.
“Mom, don't worry. You'll get even with them,” Jennifer promised.
Upon hearing that, Laura eased up a little.
Soon enough, Vincent came to the psychiatric hospital with five to six bodyguards to pick Laura up.
The group made up an impressive sight when they left the place.
Meanwhile, Amelia remained silent in the car. Jolin, who was driving, glanced at her and asked, “Mrs.
Clinton, did the Larsons tell you something?”
Amelia came to her senses and replied, “Nothing. It's just that I can't believe Mrs. Larson would end up
in that state.”
She then looked at Jolin dubiously and asked, “Jolin, were you involved in the matter regarding Mrs.
Larson?”
“Hugo and I are the ones who dealt with the matter. She offended you, and what we did was
considered lenient,” replied Jolin nonchalantly. For someone like her, who was not afraid of killing
people, she naturally would not be guilty of driving someone mad.
“So you were also the one who put her in the psychiatric hospital?” Amelia asked with a frown.
“Yes. Boss said he wanted to give her a lesson, so I bribed her doctor into hinting at the Larsons to
send her here. Boss told me there's no need to hide it from you if you found out about this as I did notdo anything shameful. He even told me you are his treasure, and he would never let someone lay a
finger on you when he could never bring himself to hurt you. In truth, her stay in the psychiatric hospital
is considered a merciful punishment among the countless agonizing torments Boss could've
employed,” Jolin said triumphantly.
Amelia remained quiet. Jolin was attentive for once, sneaking a glance at her.
Feeling something was amiss with Amelia's expression, she gulped and wondered if she had said
something wrong.
“Mrs. Clinton, do you think my method is too cruel?” Although Jolin was a bodyguard, she had secretly
carried out many dangerous tasks for Oscar. Naturally, she knew a lot of ways to torture people. For
her, it was considered merciful to cause Laura to have hallucinations and put her in a psychiatric
hospital for some time. Therefore, she did not think it was a grave matter.
Amelia shook her head and replied, “Nothing. I'm just being emotional.”
Jolin, who was not eloquent, thought of putting in a good word for Oscar. “Mrs. Clinton, Boss did it for
your own good. As a matter of fact, he has done many things for you without your knowledge, and Mrs.
Larson's case is merely one of them. When you left for Beshya back then, he had made use of all the
connections of the Clinton family and even the organization he created to find out your whereabouts.
I've never seen him love a woman so deeply. Mrs. Clinton, you should be considerate of his feelings.”
Amelia gave her a glance. “Are you worried that I'll rebuke Oscar?”
Jolin nodded. “Mrs. Clinton, I'll be frank with you. No one dares to find fault with Boss, except for his
parents. You're the only one who can reprimand him and get away with it unscathed. We are all terrifiedof him when he's irate.”
Amelie chuckled. “Don't worry. I don't intend to blame him. I know he did it for my sake. By the way,
don't tell him that I visited Mrs. Larson at the psychiatric hospital today.”
“Mrs. Clinton, please rest assured. I'm only responsible for your safety and won't tell anyone about your
whereabouts.”
Upon hearing that, Amelia nodded.
