Chapter 61 Trauma

Veronica felt extremely uneasy, and now she is sure that it will be difficult to escape.

However, she also knew very well that even if she can escape here, she can't go far away with the power of Nick Cage. She was certain that she would be found quickly by Nick.

At that moment, Nick doesn't look like he can't be appeased by Veronica.

Tracy explained under pressure and tried to defend her. "But her symptoms are asthma."

"Say it."

"I don't know yet. Let me ask her a few questions." Tracy Dora went up to Veronica and asked her. "Have you ever had asthma before?"

Veronica hesitated but nodded after a while.

"When was the last time you experienced it?" Tracy asked.

Veronica bit her lip as she responded. "It looks like when I was fourteen years old."

"Under what circumstances did it happen?"

Veronica's eyes drooped and her hands in front of the physician stirred nervously.

Tracy Dora observed her reaction and saw that she was scared, and her voice was low and gentle. "Don't be afraid, I'm just a doctor in front of you. I won't hurt you. As long as you tell me, I'll cure you."

Veronica withstood the shudder of her body, and the memory that remained unbearable for many decades flashed in her mind. She didn't want to think about it or say what happened to her because it scarred her big time. She seemed to gurgle and bleed whenever she opened up about it.

Yet, Nick will not spare her if she did not pass this hurdle.

What should the little ones do if something happened to her?

The unbearable memory in Veronica Parker's mind was instantly replaced by the innocent, lively, and chubby look of six little children which made her brave inside and said, "When my dad hit me."

Nick Cage's black eyes trembled slightly and looked at her deeply. Veronica Parker's asthmatic reaction was stimulated when they were in the suite right after he attempted to punch her.

Tracy Dora was surprised. She saw that Veronica was suffering from asthma caused by psychological problems, but she didn't expect it to be this worse.

'So, Nick forcibly dragged her in the hotel suite but the girl was not hurt. It seems like what happened inside triggered her body. Maybe because she was scared when the instinctive stimulation activated.' She interpreted the situation.

"After my parents divorced, I lived with my father. He had a bad temper and often beat me. Later, when I was 14 years old, he attempted to hit me again. I didn't know what was wrong at that time. My body began to feel like something was wrong. My chest felt stuffy and I was out of breath. I was admitted to the hospital right away. The doctor said that I was suffering from asthma caused by the stress response."

"And then what happened? Did it happen again?" Tracy probed more.

"Later when my grandmother learned that I was in the hospital, she took me back to their country. My father couldn't hit me in front of my grandmother, so he didn't do it again." Veronica Parker said as she recalled her painful past.

She thought it was difficult for her to accept what happened, but she didn't expect to say it easily after seeing the faces of her children. It wasn't so difficult with the help of her children's faces that motivated her.

Tracy looked back at Nick as if she were asking for his advice.

Nick got up. His cold and oppressive aura was evident, and in a low intimidating voice, he answered. "Throw her away from where I can't see her." With that, he stood up and left.

If someone discerned the look of the bodyguards that nodded slightly next to her, it showed that this must be conveyed and reported to Kay Tours who was the right hand of the KING Group.

Which meant that Veronica doesn't have to be in the KING Group anymore.

As soon as Nick left, Dra. Tracy walked up to Veronica Parker and told her to sit for a moment. "Wait a minute, I'll get you some medicine."

"No, I'm okay now."

"It's always good to put it on your bag, just in case." With that, Tracy went to get her medicine.

Veronica stood there in a trance and turned away.

Does she want medicine? Of course not.

This is her psychological problem, although medicine affects her, the best thing she could hope is not to be beaten next time.

She was fine all the time for the past years except when she met Nick Cage. She never had an attack before.

Presumably, there will be no intersection with Nick Cage in the future.
