He Gave Me Hearing, Then Taught Me What Silence Really Means novel Chapter 121

Juniper didn't look back; she feared she would pass out if they argued any longer.

Nelson didn't chase after her, and once she was out of sight, he kicked a nearby potted plant.

He felt like he was going to explode, unable to vent the furious heat raging inside him.

He strode back the way he came, only to bump into Julian Sterling leaning against a pillar.

Julian shrugged. "I didn't hear a thing."

Nelson ignored him and stormed off, completely consumed by his anger.

He knew if he stayed, he wouldn't be able to stop himself from strangling Juniper.

Strangling her might just be easier.

But after taking only a few steps, his vision went black, and his hand flew to his chest.

Julian stopped playing the bystander and leaped forward in a panic. "Damn it, don't scare me! Does your chest hurt? Where does it hurt? Where are your meds?"

Nelson wanted to say he was fine and wasn't going to die.

But the moment he opened his mouth, he passed out cold.

"Holy shit!"

Julian panicked and rushed him to the hospital, wanting to keep the Saint family out of it, but Lydia Thorne and Felicity Lawrence were both at the hotel; since Nelson's collapse happened right under their noses, they immediately alerted the Saints.

Julian's palms were slick with sweat as he drove, terrified Nelson might actually die from pure rage.

He gritted his teeth and floored the gas pedal, only to hear Nelson murmur with his eyes shut, "Don't tell my family."

"Lydia and Felicity are both there, and you know Felicity has a big mouth. Your family definitely already knows," Julian snapped anxiously. "Just wait. Once they find out this has to do with Juniper, they'll tear her apart. Stop talking, I'm terrified you're actually dying!"

Nelson kept his eyes closed, his face deathly pale.
