Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Her Crude Memory

(Author’s POV)

"A cursed child ~ Ill fated ~ A bane," the old lady named Elizabeth Cooper kept on mumbling despite Tucker holding her.

The nurse came inside Tucker’s office frantically and panted while saying, "As soon ... *huff* as I was ...... *huff* trying to .... give her medicine ... *huff*, she ran off."

"Give me the injection," Tucker said in a reprimanding tone while holding his wife. He was suppressing his anger as well as helplessness.

The nurse gave him the injection, her hands were shaking, which Tucker roughly grabbed and injected his wife.

Slowly but gradually, Elizabeth’s foul words reduced as she inhaled and exhaled heavily. Soon, the medicine kicked in and she lost consciousness.

Myra was scared. Her eyes were red and teary by old lady’s sudden outburst. It had triggered some of those memories which she wanted to escape. The time she spent in the orphanage. It was like a gruesome cursed in her life, a childhood trauma, which she wanted to cope up with completely.

The people there, especially the warden, used to lash out, beat her to a pulp. But more than that she would curse at Myra out loud, calling her all sorts of names just like how Elizabeth was doing now.

It took a lot of time and care for Myra to forget those things. Although, she would get nightmares about that time occasionally. But she was healing slowly and steadily.

As soon as the old lady came inside and started using profanity, Yelena ran towards Myra and hugged her tightly, patting her back gently. She comforted her, "Myra, don’t listen to what she is saying. She is sick and just spouting shit. Relax."

Myra was already feeling under the weather and this had set another panic attack. She shivered and kept looking at the lady who was taken away by two nurses.

Tucker came by their side and apologized, bowing his head repeatedly, "I am sorry on behalf of my wife. This kind of thing won’t happen again."

He was truly apologetic but Yelena was having none of it.

"Dr. Tucker Cooper, right? A simple apology cannot fix this. I understand your wife isn’t mentally stable right now. But such negligence is just unforgiveable. She kept on harassing my friend and saying nonsense stuff. I am involving the police," Yelena said. Her words weren’t mere threats as her tone was resolute.

Myra held her hand tightly and mumbled, her lips were colorless, "No, police Yelena. No ... police."

If the local authorities got involved it would only escalate the matter and reach Sandra and William. Myra didn’t wanted any of that to happen.

Yelena gazed at Myra, she pressed her lips in a thin line and released a long breath, "Okay."

She then turned towards Tucker and said, "We won’t be pressing charges against your wife but that doesn’t mean this all is over." Yelena warned Tucker. "Come Myra, I am getting you out of here."

Tucker kept his head down all the time. He didn’t dare to say anything though, he wanted to tell Myra that, back in the day, his wife used to be a fortune teller. But right now, he thought it wasn’t right to reveal such thing and distress Myra even more.

With Yelena’s help, Myra got out of the place, but her mind was still stuck with what Elizabeth said. Those words echoed inside her head.

Yelena settled Myra in the passenger seat and drove away from the place as she cussed out loud, "What a shitty hospital. They can’t even keep an eye on their patients."

Myra kept quiet, she looked outside the car, her eyes lost.

After taking her frustrations out, Yelena felt relieved. She turned to look at Myra who was totally out of it.

Yelena sighed and called out to her, "Hey, let’s forget going to any other hospital. I will call my family doctor. He can come and check on you at my apartment."

Myra still didn’t say anything, no answer, nothing.

Yelena stepped on the brakes and her car came to a sudden halt. But before she could utter anything, Myra asked, in a plain and emotionless voice, "Yelena, am I ... am I a cursed person?" Her voice was calm but the question she asked was chilling.
