The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2055

Rosalynn had just shared with Penn that Wayne and that imagined boy had similar childhoods. In many cases, patients projected visions of their own deeply wounded childhood selves. But why would Wayne's vision be of Ayden, someone he barely knew?

"Because Ayden suffered a lot," Rosalynn continued. "The first time they met, Wayne was injured trying to save him from a bicycle accident. Later, at the park, a wound on Wayne's hand was torn open..." Rosalynn went on, recounting all the injuries Wayne had suffered, either directly or indirectly, because of Ayden. She kept talking until she reached the events of the previous night.

Rosalynn's hand was clenched so tightly that Penn could see the veins popping out on the back of it.

"What happened last night?" He asked gently.

Rosalynn lifted her hand to remove the scarf from around her neck. A day had passed and the bruise had spread, making the injury look even worse.

Penn was taken aback and stood up immediately. "Did Wayne do this?"d2

Rosalynn cast her eyes down. "Last night, Wayne rushed off to find Ayden again. I went after him and found him at the park where we first met. He had somehow fallen into the water, and I jumped in to save him. He was unconscious and about to drown, but as I was pulling him to the surface, he suddenly woke up. His face was twisted in fury, his eyes filled with hatred for me. He grabbed my throat so tightly..." Just recalling it brought back the feeling of suffocation for Rosalynn.

"The people I had brought with me managed to save me in time. Otherwise, Wayne and I might have died there."

"Are you okay?" Penn asked softly.

Rosalynn looked at him, her eyes red and her face pale. She shrugged. "Not really. So... Dr. Lange, help me."
