Chapter 2091
Aurelia was well protected in the past, but because of this, she had very little experience with things. If she treated every random outsider she liked at first glance preciously, she would suffer in the future.
Of course, that was only in the future when the current situation was indeed our fault.
Hendrix's eyes flashed with a hint of awkwardness. He turned to look at Neal, who was lying on the sickbed. After a quick examination, he was about to speak when the door to the ward suddenly opened. The Hillers walked in with a lunchbox.
"Oh, Mr. Roberts is here as well," Amy greeted him fawningly before lifting the lunch box in her hand and walking towards Neal. "Neal, I prepared some chicken soup for and porridge for you. Have some."
Then she put the lunch box on the table and opened the lid to take the food out.
"No, thanks. I've already eaten." Neal refused mercilessly. Even his tone was full of disgust.
Amy paused when she heard that, and the smile on her face froze. It took her quite a while to react.
After adjusting her mood, she put the food back with a wide smile. "Eat it when you're hungry then. Your dad brought this lunchbox back from abroad. The food will be kept warm for the whole night, there's no rush."
Since the couple entered, Neal had been frowning with an uncomfortable expression on his face.
Judging from the situation, the wounds on his body were probably the work of these two people.
Perhaps they were in a hurry to divert the attention from the elephant in the room. As Amy was packing up his food, Marcello started to tell us, "Mr. and Mrs. Roberts, we're sorry that we've caused you so much trouble today. I'll be here with Neal, and it's getting late. You guys should go back and get some rest."
Hendrix lowered his gaze and nodded. "Indeed, it's quite late."
"Hendrix..." I couldn't help but call out to him, frowning. Although Neal had nothing to do with us, we brought him back from the orphanage, so we should continue upholding justice for him.
Warning the couple was a piece of cake for us, but perhaps it could make Neal's life better in the future. Whatever happened subsequently could be discussed later on.
Hendrix suddenly walked to the sofa in the reception room and sat down. He crossed his legs, put one hand on the armrest, and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV in the room. "Let's finish this quickly then, Evan."
As soon as he finished speaking, Evan came in from the door. After bowing and greeting us, he took out his mobile phone and started using it in front of the TV screen.
A few minutes later, an electric current flashed across the screen. The next second, an image appeared.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
The scene was that of the Hillers' house. The person recording walked straight into the master bedroom from the door. He quickly opened the vintage wardrobe on the left and skillfully pushed away the men's clothing. We then saw the broken and irregular holes in the wall. Strangely, the originally bare walls were covered by a layer of shiny substance.
The person recording the video pushed the board aside and found a secret room behind it!
Through the screen, I saw tools of torture on the ground. There were leather, steel, wooden sticks, and chains.
The video had no audio, but the screams of a child being whipped resounded in my mind.
"The secret chamber is taken care of by a soundproof system. Our men have tested.it; even an adult men's roar will be completely absorbed by the sound-proof cotton. No sounds can be heard from the outside," Evan explained as he looked at the Hillers with a fierce gaze.
Hendrix sat on the side, supporting his chin with one hand. His finger slowly rubbed his lips. There was no smile on his face as if he had once again become a decisive hunter.
Marcello and Amy had long been trembling with fear. The couple hugged each other tight, but were sweating profusely in the air-conditioned room. Freya stood at the side, watching as everything played out before her. She coldly fanned the flames and said, "What an abomination. Professors are truly scums."
