Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1016

Standing outside the room, Minerva looked at the person lying inside through the glass window.

She looked different from the Sylvia she had known in the past.

She had changed into the hospital's clothing and her body was cleaned, revealing her snowy white skin.

However, there were many scars on it.

Scratches, burns, and all kinds of wounds...

Although they had already scabbed, the wounds were complicated. They were all over her neck, wrist, and even on her face. It looked horrifying.

Minerva felt her breath stifled. At this moment, a hand gently covered her eyes.

"Don't look if you're scared."

It was Maddox's voice. He stood behind her and spoke softly.

Minerva was quiet for a moment. Then she pulled Maddox's hand down and gently shook her head.

"I'm fine. I'm just a little surprised that she actually suffered such serious injuries."

Maddox understood something from her words.

He frowned slightly and asked, "Are you not on good terms with her?"

Hearing this, Minerva didn't reply. She just smiled faintly and stared at Sylvia who was lying inside the room.

Minerva was reminded of the past when she looked at Sylvia who was lying on the bed, looking incredibly serene. When the two of them were best friends, they would have sleepovers together and Minerva would always wake up earlier than Sylvia.

While Sylvia would always kick the blanket off herself.

Therefore, Minerva would always cover her up again when she woke up every morning.

She looked the same as she had been now.

Just like before.

The vivid memories flashed upon Minerva's mind. All of a sudden, her heart started to ache, and tears built up in her eyes.

"We used to have a good relationship. I saved her in the past and she became dependent on me. She always said she's indebted to me and she would treat me nothing but well for our entire lives. She had helped me through a lot when I was in trouble. I thought that... we would be best friends forever. We would even talk about being each other's bridesmaids. I didn't think that..."

It turned out that it was just a show.

She still had not figured out if Sylvia treated her well because she wanted to thank her and they eventually became best friends or she found out about her secret and became close to her just to take advantage of her.

But no matter what the reason was, the moments they had spent together felt like a flame burning on her chest.

"You don't remember her, do you?" Minerva suddenly turned around and looked at Maddox. "You used to know her too. Maybe taking a good look at her face will help you recover some of your memory."

Originally, Maddox didn't pay attention to what the woman lying inside looked like. After hearing Minerva's words, he looked at Sylvia's face.

At first, he thought there was nothing strange about this face.

He had no impression of it either.

However, after looking at it for a while, several images suddenly appeared in his mind.

He saw Minerva in some of them, but... it wasn't a good sight.

The woman in the image wore a pair of pink earrings and he took out a pair of similar earrings. When Minerva saw them, she was furious and she smashed the earrings he had gifted her.

Never had his memory been as vivid as they were now.

When he realized that he had hurt Minerva in the past, Maddox felt a dull pain in his chest. However, before he could experience the heartpenetrating pain, he felt a sharp pain in his head.

"Are you recalling something?"
