Since Claire can’t rely on others, she’d rely on herself. She has been keeping it for so many days. It’s OK to get out of bed and walk around. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Open the quilt, Claire grabs the corner of the table beside the bed and slowly sits up. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It’s just a simple action, but Claire uses all her strength and almost faints. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire knows that it is her limit. If she gets up reluctantly, she will surely fall down. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The wound hasn’t grown well. Claire is sure that she’ll stay in bed for another half month after this fall. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Thinking of these, Claire doesn’t act rashly, just sat for a while and then lay down again. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as she lay down, she would go to sleep. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Claire doesn’t relax at all. Actually, she resists falling asleep. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Damn, she has slept enough. Why does the doctor need to inject her with tranquilizer? She would be a fool if she slept any longer. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At the time of confusion, Claire suddenly remembered what the doctor said, and her brow couldn’t help wrinkling. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It must be the meaning of Juan. In order to control her, he uses such shameless methods! Juan, you are waiting to take my wrath. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Before Claire finishes cursing, she falls asleep. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
There is silence in the room, and conversation outside. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The guard outside the door raises his chin to the door and asks, “Does she sleep again?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor nods and says, “Yes, she does.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The guard frowns and complains with dissatisfaction, “I don’t know what the boss thinks. Why do he keep this half dead woman? It’s said that we lost because of her.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Because of this woman, we’ve lost so many buddies. It’s really annoying that we not only can’t kill her to vent our anger, but also stand here in order to protect her.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor pats the guard on the shoulder and says, “Don’t complain it, our boss considers her as his treasure however. All right, I’m going to work. ” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Alright.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor leaves, and the guard has to do his duty. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Standing at the door bored, the guard murmurs, “The woman is half dead and can’t run out. Why do boss need to let people watch her? It’s really unnecessary.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Complain is complain. The guard has not dared to disobey the orders of Juan, so he can only stay outside. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After several days of groping, Claire finds that the shift between servants and the doctor was regular. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
If Claire doesn’t ring the call bell, the servant will only deliver food at a fixed time of the day, and no one will be seen at any other time. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As for the doctor, he checks Claire in the morning and evening every day, and injects tranquilizer by the way, so that she can sleep softly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
And this is also the most abhorrent of Claire. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As long as she is injected with tranquilizer, no matter what plan Claire has in mind, she can only realize it in her dream. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Claire’s disadvantage is also her advantage. Because everyone thinks she has been injected with tranquilizer, they will be less cautious and make it convenient for her to escape. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But, how can she get around the charm of tranquilizer? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Taking advantage of the short time of lucidity, Claire tries to deal with this problem, she continues to think about it, and finally has an idea. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After another routine examination, the doctor takes out the injection again and prepares to inject it into Claire ‘s body. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Always the same place, the skin is swollen, please change another place to inject.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire’s critical tone makes the doctor frown slightly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Which place in your skin would you like to pick?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“There.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Impatiently, she stretches out her arm. When the doctor starts to inject, Claire screams, “Hey, be careful!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor is helpless and says, “I haven’t tied it yet.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I knew it would hurt before the injection. How do you be a doctor? Whether Juan is blind when he employed you?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor is famous doctor in fact. In face of Claire’s spite, he is angry. He throws his sleeve and says angrily, “Since you are not satisfied with me, I will let others serve you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Well, that’s what I want!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor stops talking and packs up. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire then raises the corner of the mouth, lies on the bed again. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
About a quarter of an hour later, another doctor appeared in Claire ‘s room. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Tightly wrapped in the quilt, Claire turns her back to the substitute doctor, motionless. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Miss, we’re going to have an injection.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Impatiently waving her hand, Claire says angrily, “I’m so sleepy now, don’t disturb me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Miss, Miss?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctor calls several times. Claire doesn’t pay any attention to him. Her eyes were closed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Looking at Claire’s state. She should have been sedated. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The tranquilizer for Claire is safe, it will not cause harm to her. But if it’s overdosed, it’s dangerous. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The substitute doctor is not sure. He decides to go back and asks about it first. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The guard is not familiar with the substitute doctor. When the doctor came out, he just nodded with him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Usually at this time, Claire is sleeping. The guard would take the opportunity to have a break and sneak out to smoke. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Today, he is addicted to cigarettes again. Thinking that the women inside would not play tricks, he goes out with a lighter. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Hearing the sound of tiny footsteps, Claire immediately opens her eyes. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Quietly pushing open the door, Claire can see that there is no one around, so she tiptoes out. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It’s far smaller than the former castle, and the terrain is not complicated. It’s a three-story villa, which makes Claire see the hope of escaping. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Around the corner, two men are standing there and talking. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
One of them seems to glance something, and immediately turns to look at it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Another person asks, “What’s the matter?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I think I saw Miss Bennett.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“You’re wrong. She’s just liked a loser now. How can she get out of the room?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“That’s right. Ah, I don’t know what the boss admires about her. She’s been hurt like this, and he still remains in his heart as a treasure.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m sure there’s any other intention for the boss to keep her. After all, she’s a woman of Leo. Maybe she will come into use later.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Well, that makes sense.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is furious at their rude conversation. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Does she want to stay there? The culprit is Juan. Why should people put all the blame on her? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
What’s more, as a subordinate of Juan, they dared to gossip in such a loud voice?! Sooner or later, they will die in their words. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire leaves, but accidentally touches the decorative vase beside her, making a little voice. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Who’s there!?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is stiff and stays where she is. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Just when Claire is at a loss, a little dog with a white pattern comes out and swaggers past her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The two also see the dog, and they become relaxed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It turns out to be a puppy in kitchen.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Those guys in the kitchen are getting careless. They can’t even take care of a dog. If the dog is seen by the boss, they will be miserably killed.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
