Night blindness? Was this really night blindness?

She had studied alternative medicine with her uncle for a few years and knew what patients with typical night blindness were like. Gerald...

“Sir, Madam, aren’t you coming downstairs for dinner?” Steward asked cheerfully as he knocked on the door.

Gerald got up calmly. “Yes, Steward, the vase is broken. Please get someone to clean it up.”

Then, as if nothing was amiss, he turned and said, “Let’s go eat.”

North followed him, frowning slightly.

After dinner, North decided to take a bath and go to bed.

Before falling asleep, she hesitated for a while and then sent a message to Pete.

[Uncle Pete, are you free tomorrow? I have a question to ask you.]

[You can just ask me here]

North typed hurriedly, [No, it’s very important. It has to be in person.]

After scheduling a meeting with Pete, North went to bed, but she did not sleep well. As soon as she closed her eyes, she thought of Gerald’s lifeless eyes.

She was determi

    Their parents were killed because of a mistake made by Ronald South. Afterward, Ronald simply brushed it off and then continued to exploit their sons. Connor despised the South family, and he did not bother to say much to Martin. Sam was much calmer. “Sir, your poisoning is indeed due to this person.” “Poisoning? Hahaha, Gerald, you’re poisoned, so you must be blind now, right?! Haha, the great Mr. Gerald is actually a blind man...” Gerald looked at him indifferently. Martin’s words got stuck in his throat. “What? No, I won’t give you the antidote! I don’t have the antidote! Gerald, this is your fate, even your biological parents abandoned you, I—” “Gerald does not like to listen to nonsense.” These calm and gentle words had decided Martin’s fate. Martin’s face turned pale, and intense fear made him scream, “What do you want to do?! “Gerald, do other people know your true face?! Do they know you’re a demon?! Everyone says you’re gentle and polite... Hahaha, what a jok

    “I once knew someone who had a condition just like that. She was also fine during the day, but she would become blind at night. She was unable to do anything about it, so she was confined to her large estate. Finally, she died there.” Pete continued, “She was poisoned at a very young age and lived until her forties before her will to live collapsed.” North asked subconsciously, “Who was this person?” Pete turned his head, looked at her intently, and slowly said, “The true heiress of the Bracken family, Cedric Howard’s first wife, Paige Bracken.” North was shocked! Paige Bracken? She was almost certain that Gerald was Paige’s biological son. Paige had been poisoned back then. After that, Gerald was poisoned too?! Pete got straight to the point. “I won’t ask what the relationship between Paige and Gerald is, and I don’t need you to explain anything either. But North, the poison in Gerald’s body is partly due to external factors and partly due to congenital factors from his

    Gerald waited there for a whole day. Of course, the smell of blood lingered on him. Gerald usually would not care about this, but when he was with North, he recalled what Martin South had said. “If North knows about your true colors, would she still stay by your side? “Does she know that her husband is a cold-blooded murderer? Does she know that the fourth level of the basement of her house is such a scary place? “If North knew about it, she would definitely leave you. Gerald, you’re cursed! It’s no wonder you’re exiled by your friends and family!” Maybe his blindness had affected his mind. He could not see North’s actions and expressions, so he could not see her worry. Gerald knew that he should not be affected by those words, but he was. Martin was right. He was a gutter rat. No matter how hard he tried to get out and regardless of the glamorous image that he portrayed to others, it was undeniable that he was born evil. North came to her senses as her expression chan

    Five minutes ago, North left after hearing Gerald’s words. He clearly could not see, but he was still hiding it from her! Why would he want to hide it from her when they were a married couple? Was it because he did not want her to worry about it? However, if Gerald did not mention that, she would be even more worried about it. Fine. She would go if he asked her to. After all, Gerald did not want her care. However, when she reached the entrance in anger, she did not hear him chasing after her. It meant that Gerald was staying at the same spot. That was right, he was blind. He suddenly lost his eyesight, so he would not simply move around as he could not navigate properly. Steward was still in the backyard, and Connor’s whereabouts were unknown. Gerald was left alone in the mansion. He would only be able to stand there as he would not be able to go anywhere. But Gerald was lying to her earlier. Why would she care about him? That was right. She wanted to ignore him!

    So… the person that she liked was not the real him. “But Mr. Gerald, there is no clear explanation when it comes to love.” North sounded calm. “I like gentlemen because you’re one. If you no longer wish to pretend to be a gentleman in the future, I’d also like that version of you.” Gerald paused, and his breathing started to get heavy. He suddenly bent down and kissed North right on the lips even though he could not see. North widened her eyes in shock. Why was he so aggressive? Gerald was kissing her with great force. He parted her lips open and before she could come to her senses, he was slightly panting when he said, “Open your mouth.” North subconsciously grabbed his sleeves. When she heard the man’s voice, she subconsciously opened her mouth, and his kisses became even more intense after that. “Gerald, um…” Before she could finish her sentence, the man kissed her again. North felt as though she had lost control of herself and was completely going with Gerald’s f

    North’s face suddenly turned red. It was unknown if it was from anger or embarrassment. “Gerald, stop being delusional!” Gerald did not say anything else. He mindlessly buttoned his bathrobe again. “I don’t need a massage.” North turned around. She was not in the mood to joke. “Mr. Howard, do you know your eyes are blinded because you’re poisoned?” It was not night blindness, nor was it temporary blindness. It happened because he was poisoned. Gerald looked indifferent and confirmed her question. “Yes.” North was shocked. “You’re aware of it?” “Do you want to ask me if I don’t want to go through a detox?” Gerald said indifferently, “No one is able to cure this poison. It can only be suppressed, so I don’t need a detox massage.” Fortunately, the poison was under control. The worst-case scenario was that he would go permanently blind. Compared to his life, his eyes were actually not that important to him. As long as he was alive, some people would not dare to do anyth

    Two hours later, Gerald was covered in sweat when he opened his eyes. Instead of darkness, he could finally see again. North was absolutely exhausted. It was not that exhausting when she was giving the other patients detox massages in the past. However, it seemed like the effects of the treatment were not bad. Connor started to tear up. “Mr. Gerald, your eyes!” Gerald was not as excited. He roughly knew that the episode would last for two to three days. It was the end of the episode, which was why he got his vision back. But it would happen again, and the episodes would get more frequent. North also knew this, which was why she was not overly excited as well. “I’ve dried some herbs in the backyard to brew some herbal tea later on. You should drink some every day.” Those herbs were fruits of Pete’s hard work. Since Paige was Pete’s patient before, these medicines would definitely work. Gerald replied, “Alright, I’ll get Stewart to help you…” “Madam, Madam!” Stewart’

    After North heard that, she immediately left and went to the backyard. Stewart immediately followed after. The room became quiet. Connor waited until North was out of earshot before he asked anxiously. “Mr. Gerald, did Madam give you the detox massage? Why didn’t you tell her about your current condition…” Gerald was not fit to get any detox massage! The detox massage would only increase the potency of the poison. Unless it was the secret doctor that had once treated Paige, any other regular detox massages would only speed up the onset of another episode caused by the poison. Gerald was extremely calm and indifferent. “My eyes are already like this. It doesn’t matter if I get another episode. They won’t get worse.” Connor chased after him. “But…” “There is no but.” Gerald paused and instructed, “Do not tell her about this.” North wanted to treat his eyes. That was enough for him. Gerald already knew his destiny. He had long accepted the fact that he would go b

    He moved his wrists and frowned.Did North sleep for the entire day? Was she disoriented?North sat by the bed with nothing to do. She watched as time passed. Strange, why wasn’t she awake yet? Was she that sleepy? Could it be that the advanced exam questions were too difficult and she did not want to wake up?North could not help but think about the questions. Hmm… they did not seem very difficult. She had thought of a solution!Indeed, people had endless potential when they were dreaming. They could even come up with answers to such difficult questions!North was afraid that she would forget and wanted to wake up quickly, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not wake up. She closed her eyes and opened them again, but she was still in the room.North frowned and muttered to herself, “What’s going on…?”Gerald looked at her silently.He also wanted to ask what was going on.“North, do you need my help?”North hesitated. Even though it was a dream, she was still a littl

    North exclaimed in surprise.It turned out that Gerald could be sarcastic too!Gerald did not give Patricia any time to react. He was just short of chasing the entire Bracken family out.While the Bracken family was leaving, Gerald heard Mike grumble, “Mom… If you knew this was going to happen, why didn’t you adjust your act earlier!”Patricia was furious. “I did all of this for you. How could you fall for Gerald’s tricks?!”“But Gerald was right. They suspect that I’m not Paige’s son because of you!”…Giselle’s smile became more and more sarcastic. When the Bracken family disappeared, he said, “Accompany me pay respects to Paige. Also, get someone to clean Glass Manor inside and out.”He wanted to get rid of the bad vibes the Bracken family had brought in.…A few days later, when they returned to Royal Sights Residences, the Bracken family actually stopped causing trouble.North was about to graduate, and she had one final exam. She saw the class group chat exchanging adva

    “Why? Do you think that I’ve forgotten how Paige died?”Giselle never expected that this shameless family would have the audacity to make an issue out of Paige’s death.“You make it sound so simple. Even if Patricia dies today, you would never disregard her last wishes. Is everything you do for the good of the Bracken family?“Still, the only person the Bracken family has ever had to sacrifice was Paige!”Virgil snapped, “Nonsense! I’m Paige’s biological father, how could I…”Giselle sneered. “Stop putting on an act. You didn’t look for your daughter when she was missing. You didn’t feel sorry for your daughter when she returned. You kept asking her to tolerate the adopted daughter. When she was sick, you even stopped her treatment so that she would die and let your adopted daughter marry her husband.“Virgil, I’m sick. I’m not dead yet, and I haven’t lost my memory. If this happens again, I’ll destroy the entire Bracken family!”Giselle looked at the bodyguards she had brought

    The surroundings suddenly fell silent.Virgil found it hard to breathe. “Let go! Are you crazy?!”“I’m asking you a question. Where is Paige buried? Tell me!”Virgil’s brain was deprived of oxygen. Without thinking, he roared, “How would I know? Let go, you crazy woman!”Patricia screamed, “Madam Giselle, what are you doing? Let go of him. Do you want Dad to die?”Gerald’s second uncle also shouted, “Madam Giselle, why are you doing this to us? Don’t treat your husband like this!”“You don’t know? You don’t know at all, do you?” Giselle ignored everyone. She looked unremorseful. She scoffed.“You claim to be severely depressed about your daughter’s death,” Giselle retorted. “Despite that, you actually don’t know where your daughter’s grave is!”As soon as she finished speaking, the entire place fell silent.When Virgil realized what he had just said, his face turned pale and he stopped screaming. He trembled as he spoke to Giselle hatefully. “You did this on purpose…”That wa

    Mike said weakly, “North, we paid our respects to my mother before we went out today. We didn’t say anything because we were afraid that Grandpa wouldn’t be able to accept it.”As expected, Virgil clutched his chest and looked like he was about to faint.Patricia cried out, “Gerald, are you satisfied now that your grandfather is trembling in anger? We’ve kept it a secret for so many years. Despite that…”Everyone sighed. So, that was how it was.It was indeed Ms. Paige’s death anniversary today. However, the old man had fallen into a state of depression from the intense guilt. He then mistakenly thought that his daughter had passed away in May.As his family, Patricia and Mike could not bear to make the old man feel more guilty. Thus, they maintained the facade.In fact, they would pay their respects to Paige every year.This made sense. After all, Virgil was old and could not stand such harsh emotions.The people from the Bracken family jumped on this chance to scold Gerald. “

    Everyone was dumbfounded. North was really bold!North blinked. “What’s wrong, Mr. Virgil? Why are you so angry? Did I say something wrong?”“What nonsense! Paige is my daughter! How could I intentionally let her die?!”North widened her eyes. “I didn’t say that you intentionally let her die! It’s just that the Bracken family didn’t like her and looked down on her. The medical staff didn’t care about her either. In the end, they didn’t even treat her and let her die.“I know. It’s not your fault. After all, you were so busy. How could you have the time to take care of a daughter you don’t love?”Virgil clutched his chest. “What nonsense…! Shut up!”“North!” Patricia screamed. “Gerald, are you just going to watch her anger your grandfather? Your grandfather’s health isn’t good…”“What did I say wrong?”North sighed. “Look at what Mr. Virgil said. Ms. Paige passed away at the end of May, so why didn’t he treat her for two whole months from the end of March to the end of May?“Th

    Mike knew that he had fallen into North’s trap and was speechless!He was so anxious that his expression changed. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and huge beads of sweat dripped down. “Um… I…”“Mike!” Patricia saw that the situation was not good, so she hurriedly interrupted Mike and pulled him behind her.Then, she took a deep breath and pretended to be helpless and upset.“Gerald, what nonsense are you talking about?! We’re family. If you have anything you’re upset about, just tell me. There’s no need to cause trouble at the banquet and make an issue out of Paige’s death anniversary!“We’re all Paige’s family, and Dad is also Paige’s biological father. How can we not know when her death anniversary is?“Paige’s death anniversary is at the end of May. It’s not today at all. You… You’re too much!”Virgil looked aggrieved. He nodded and said, “That’s right. Paige’s death anniversary is in May. Gerald, I know you don’t want to give up her inheritance. Moreover, I didn’t fo

    Everyone’s eyes fell on Gerald.Gerald looked up slowly and said calmly, “Ms. Patricia, why did you choose today to hold a banquet for Mike?”“It doesn’t matter what day I chose!” Patricia roared.“So, you did choose the date.”Gerald looked down at Patricia from above. His cold gaze made Patricia suddenly feel suffocated.Her “son” had a murderous look in his eyes. “Any other day would have been fine, but not today.”Patricia hated the look in Gerald’s eyes the most. Why was he so arrogant? Why was he looking down on her? Why was he like that b*tch?She screamed, “Gerald, I’m your mother! Mike is your brother! It’s fine if you don’t love me, but you keep finding fault with me. What right do you have—”“Today is the anniversary of Paige’s death.”Gerald interrupted her.Patricia’s face turned pale, and the words that she wanted to say were stuck in her throat. The scene instantly fell silent.What did Gerald say? What day was it today?Today was the anniversary of Paige’s d

    Patricia felt a lump in her throat. “You…”“Connor, come out.” North interrupted her.Then, a group of people dressed in black walked out of nowhere and played mournful music. Connor walked in the middle and placed a memorial tablet on the table.Everyone looked at the memorial tablet curiously, wanting to know whose memorial tablet it was. When everyone saw the name “Paige”, they instantly fell silent.North and Gerald paid their respects. Then, they placed the bouquets beside the memorial tablet.Their actions stunned everyone.Had they come to pay respects to Paige?Patricia was trembling. She stared fixedly at Paige’s name on the memorial tablet. She clenched her fists.Paige!Gerald had paid his respects to Paige at a banquet for Mike. Was he crazy?! She was so unlucky! Paige was already dead, but she was still the center of attention at Mike’s banquet!After paying her respects, North turned around. “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to pay your respects?”
