A Mysterious Man

Chapter 243 Amnesia

The doctor frowns, looking rather pale, "And the young lady is covered with... the marks of whipping all

over. The bite on her leg looks like it is done by some animal."

"But it doesn't look like any other great beast. It looks more like..."

"What is it?" Kevin turns to look at the doctor.

Seeing this, the doctor does not dare to hide anything, and directly speaks out his conjecture, "It is like

biting by fish of Osteichthyes."

Osteichthyes?

Kevin laughs, "There are so many kinds of fish in the class of Osteichthyes. You want me to guess

them one by one?"

Knowing Kevin is a little angry, the doctor doesn't dare to hesitate, and then blunts, "It is like biting by

piranha."

Piranha normally lives in the Amazon River Basin in South America, which is basically in Argentina and

Brazil.

It is rare to see this kind fish in China, or even Asia.

If there are some, they might be raised in animal houses or aquariums as ornamental animals.

It is usually kept by special people, and it is difficult for a family or an individual to keep this kind of fish

well.

Sure enough, Kevin frowns as soon as he hears piranha.

"How do you know that?" Kevin stares at the doctor closely, as if trying to determine if he is telling the

truth.

The doctor knows that Kevin is a bit impatient, so he doesn't dare to neglect it.

"I had the honor to attend a discussion on the case of a patient who is bitten by a piranha when I was a

PhD student," says the doctor, "The hospital provided us with pictures of the patient's wounds and we

studied the characteristics of the wounds and of the piranha bite."

"Did you find anything?"

"Yes." The doctor nods, quickly takes out his cell phone, looks for the pictures and hands the phone to

Kevin. "This is the picture of the wound of that patient."

Kevin takes the phone and doesn't care why the doctor gives him an irrelevant answer. He focuses on

the pictures in the phone.

The wounds in the photos are particularly gruesome.

After the patient was taken to the hospital, the hospital took photos of the wound and processed them a

bit.

On the photo, there is a large area of muscle torn away, and around the wound, dried blood can be

seen, and there is some fresh blood.

There are some other pictures of the wound that have been processed.

The wound has scabbed and the blood around it has been cleaned up, but there is no muscle in the

wound, and the wound looks particularly creepy.

And then there are some pictures of the wound getting recovered.

Kevin hands the phone back to the doctor, then goes to the bed, pulls up the quilt and checks the

wound on Butler's leg.

Sure enough...

It is almost the same as the one in the picture, the mutilated, blood-stained wounds.

After simple treatment, there is no further deterioration in the wound. It has been slowly healing, but

because of the long-time standing at noon today, it seems to have inflamed.

"Give her some medicine for the wound." Kevin waves his hand and explains to the doctor.

The doctor nods, takes some medicine and proceeds with a simple treatment.

It takes nearly twenty minutes to apply the medicine.

The doctor walks up to Kevin and says, "Mr. Kevin, it's done. As for the further treatment, I will discuss

it with the other doctors before I make up the prescription."

"But Mr. Kevin, it'd better not let the lady to touch water. If she has to, she'd better avoid the wound."

"What's more, she should not stand for a long time, or it may cause worse recurrence."

After that, the doctor packs up his medicine box and is ready to leave.

"Wait a minute." Kevin stops him. "In which place are there piranhas?"

Hearing that, the doctor thinks for a moment, and finally shakes his head, "Sorry, Mr. Kevin. I don't

know. If there is any, maybe aquariums have some."

The aquarium...

Kevin's eyes sparkle.

He doesn't think Butler would have gone to the aquarium, fallen into the tank just in time, and been

bitten by a piranha.

"Does anyone keep these things at home?"

The Quinn family?

The doctor shakes his head, "Sorry, Mr. Kevin, I really don't know."

He has only been at the Quinn family for a short time. How could he possibly know much about the

Quinn family?

Hearing this, Kevin waves his hand, "OK, you can go now."

The doctor hurries away, not daring to stay any longer.

But when he gets outside, he sees Ellison standing in the doorway, "Mr. Ellison."

Ellison nods. "How's Miss Butler?"

It turns that the woman is Miss Butler!

The doctor suddenly thinks of something and says, "Miss Butler is in good health. She is fine except

that the wound is becoming irritated."

Ellison nods, "Thank you."

After seeing Ellison off, the doctor heads downstairs.

But when he reaches the top of the stairs, he suddenly remembers something.

He suddenly recalls that on his first day at the Quinn Family, he heard someone say that Mr. Ellison

had bought a batch of piranhas back and plans to keep them for fun.

Miss Kelly originally did not agree, but Mr. Ellison has already bought them back, so she had no choice

but to agree to keep them in a specially built house in the backyard.

Mr. Ellison... Piranhas... Miss Butler... The wound... Piranhas...

Combining the clues together, the picture seems to be clear.

But the doctor turns pale with horror at what he has discovered.

If the rumor he heard is true, and the wound on Miss Butler's leg is caused by piranha, then...

The one who makes Miss Butler like this... is Mr. Ellison?!

The doctor, realizing what he has discovered, stands there in horror.

After a good while does he calm down and stumbles downstairs.

When he is downstairs, he bids goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Wade and then hurries away.

Fortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Wade are so focused on trying to coax Macie that they don't notice anything

unusual about the doctor.

But Kelly, out of the corner of her eyes, sees the doctor flee away in horror.

And she feels a bit strange.

What is going on?

Why is he so nervous after seeing Butler?NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Does Kevin threaten him with something?

In Kelly's opinion, it is not unusual for Kevin to threaten the doctor on behalf of Butler.

After all, Kevin has thought that Butler is his fiancée, and he has to defend her, and he can't even

recognize his own daughter.

Kelly's eyes fall on Macie, who is crying and whose eyes are red. Seeing this, Kelly couldn't help

feeling distressed for Macie.

"Macie is good." Mrs. Wade patiently coaxes Macie, and feels anxious to see Macie's crying look.

That is her good granddaughter!

"Grandma," Macie whispers, "Doesn't daddy like Macie?"

Macie has asks this question countless times, but each time Mrs. Wade gives her a serious answer. It

is not that daddy doesn't like Macie any more. Daddy loves Macie very much!

After seeing Macie's sad look, Mrs. Wade decides to tell Macie the whole truth.

Mrs. Wade then says, "Macie, do you know what is amnesia?"

Macie stops crying, looks at Mrs. Wade with a sob, and nods. "Yes. Mama told me about that before."

Mrs. Wade is a bit shocked. She never thought that Sunny has told Macie about this.

What Macie says reminded Kelly.

When Sunny told her about this, Kelly thinks that Sunny is a bit bored, and she doesn't know why

Sunny would tell her child about this.

It turns out that...

Sunny knows this would happen, and she knows Butler will deal with her.

She is afraid that her daughter would suffer a loss when she is in the Quinn family alone and that her

daughter cannot understand her father.

When the doctor told Sunny that the toxin has entered Kevin's brain, Sunny has thought of today.

Butler forced her to leave, and Kevin suffers from amnesia as toxins have entered his brain.

So Sunny told Macie ahead of time what amnesia is.

Seeing Macie holding up her little face and trying to hold back her tears, Kelly feels very sad in her

heart.

‘Sunny, what is the use of telling Macie all this?' thinks Kelly.

The child is still young. Her mother is not around, and her father suffers from amnesia, not caring about

her.

What is the use of Maice knowing about this?

"Macie." Mrs. Wade touches Macie's head. She looks kind and nice, "Your father is suffering from

amnesia now."

Macie nods vaguely. "How long will it take daddy to remember us?"

She longs for her father's warm and generous embrace.

She seems to think of something, as if looking for the last draw and eagerly ask, "Grandmother, does

father remember mother now?"
