A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 105 Ghastly Woman

Sherry was flabbergasted; this woman called William brother-in-law!

"Will...I don't want to go to the hospital, I won't go... No needles... No needles..." This woman, who was all skin and bones, managed to utter out. She held onto William’s sleeve tightly. Anyone could clearly see her deep attachment to William.

“I’m here, Lucy, I’m here; don’t worry, no one’s taking you to the hospital. We’re not going anywhere!” William comforted her in a soft tone.

Sherry was still in shock. She never expected that Lucille Mclean, the beloved daughter of the Mclean family, was now the famished, trembling woman before her eyes.

At a glance, she felt her own heart breaking! This ghastly figure was no woman, she was more like a tortured ghost!

Even a completely random stranger would feel pity for her.

Seeing Sherry’s shocked expression, Liam thought that Sherry was jealous of how caring William was towards Lucille. He stood besides her and whispered, “Sherry, William is the only one that Lucille recognizes now; she doesn’t remember anyone else, include Darcy. Will brought her back from a psych ward in France!”

Sherry snapped back to her senses and looked at Lucille. The only appropriate way to describe her was “still alive”. If she were to shut her eyes and say nothing, everyone would think she was dead.

Her entire body trembled; her eyes were hollow, and her bony fingers clutched William tightly. Her skin was a dull yellow, as if a vampire had sucked her blood dry. Sherry wondered how many years has it been since Lucille last saw sunlight.

Sherry took a step forward, which was enough to make Lucille shrink back in fear. Her reflexes showed Sherry that she was truly scared.

Sherry could see the look of terror in her eyes!

“No need to be afraid!” Sherry said gently. “I’m Will’s friend, I won’t hurt you!”

Maybe it was the mere mention of William, Lucille seemed to relax a bit. After a slight pause, she let out a tiny smile, “Is Will here? Is Will here?”

As if she suddenly realized something, she stared down at her clothes, “Oh no, I need to shower, I need to shower; my clothes are dirty, Will is a neat freak, he won’t like it; my hands are dirty too!”

She began to incessantly rub the back of her hands, but there was no way to remove the scars.

“Lucille, stop, you just changed your clothes, you don’t need to shower!” William said as he held both of her hands.

Lucille looked up at William. Immediately, a light shone in her eyes. It was a look that made Sherry’s eyes begin to turn watery.

It was as if she was always in the dark and finally welcomed the crack of dawn. Her eyes glistened and shone brightly.

A smile began to spread across her thin face, “Will, you’re here!”
