The other Klein family members helped Dianay down on the ground and elevated her legs, ensuring she was breathing properly. Then they fanned her and waited until she finally came to. Upon waking, Diana continued to cry, "Oh, Lord, how could you allow this child to suffer so much? The Sinir family was full of loyal and brave souls-why did they meet such a terrible end? Lord, you''re unjust! You''re too cruel!"


    Carissa couldn''t bear to hear such heart-wrenchingmentations. She hurried outside, her tears flowing freely. In the past, she had managed to hold back her emotions. But now, the floodgates had opened, and all the tears she had previously stifled came pouring out.


    Every Klein family member present had their turn to look at Ryan, and then he was taken to Ingrid''s room. Fortunately, she had been given medication beforehand. Seeing Ryan as a mute and a cripple broke her


    heart.


    He was her great-grandson, whom she had cherished so dearly.


    How could he have been reduced to this state?


    Ingrid had lost her beloved granddaughter. Now, seeing this well-behaved child, who resembled his mother so much in her youth, in such a condition was a pain more profound than any wound. Ingrid''s grief was so intense that it felt as if her heart had been cut out with a knife.


    For a full hour, everyone struggled to hold back their tears and eventually managed to sit in the main hall with a semnce of calm. Ingrid was helped out of the room and joined the others as Carissa recounted everything that had transpired.


    They learned that Ryan had gone to buy candied apples for Carissa to cheer her up, which had led him to escape the massacre. Though he had endured two years of suffering, he was, at least, still a Their gaze toward Carissa softened and was filled with gratitude, and their hatred toward the human traffickers diminished somewhat. However, they remained unaware that Carissa''s feelings were quite different, and she chose not to reveal them.


    After Anthony managed to calm his emotions, he asked about Ryan''s poisoning and leg injury. Carissa ryed what Sebastian had told her.


    "The poisoning is manageable but requires effort and time. We need to administer detoxification medicine daily and acupuncture every other day. As for the addiction to the Peony Bliss, it seems to be of less concern now. The detoxification form Sebastian prescribed can also remove the poison from it. If the treatment is effective, he should be able to speak again within a year."


    Carissa continued, "As for his leg injury, since the bone is misaligned, it will need to be broken and realigned. This will be quite painful, but we have faith in Sebastian''s medical skills and his medicine. He will help Ryan endure the least amount of suffering possible."


    Upon hearing that the bone would need to be rebroken and realigned, the room''s atmosphere grew heavier with sympathy and concern for Ryan.


    Sighing, Edward asked, "When will the surgery be performed? We cane over to help care for him. Or if you''re busy with wedding preparations, we can keep Ryan here at Highcrest Estate."


    Carissa replied, "Sebastian mentioned that Ryan is still weak. He hasn''t been eating well for a long time, which caused severe damage to his digestive system and depleted his energy. He will need some time to recover before we can proceed with the surgery."


    She nced around at the gathering in the spacious hall, where everyone from the Klein family was present.


    my


    She continued, "It would be better for Ryan to stay with me. Although I''m preparing for my wedding, it''s


    second marriage and doesn''t require extensive preparations. Northwatch Estate is quiet and suitable for his recovery. Furthermore..."


    Her voice grew more somber. "I discussed it with Prince Rafael. After our wedding, we will bring Ryan to live with us at Hell Monarch Estate. Ryan hase to trust His Highness. After all, His Highness rescued Ryan from that den of wolves.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    "Once Ryan is in better health, His Highness will arrange for a prestigious tutor for him. My mother always hoped that her grandchildren would focus on schrly pursuits rather than martial skills. Ryan won''t need to exert himself too much-as long as he maintains good character and acquires a decent education, he can pass the peerage examination. With the duke''s title, he will be assured of a lifetime of wealth and security."


    At first, everyone was taken aback by the idea of Ryan moving to Hell Monarch Estate.


    It was unusual for a woman to bring her nephew with her to her new home after her marriage.


    However, Rafael had agreed, and living at Hell Monarch Estate would indeed broaden Ryan''s horizons. Even if Ryan only held a ceremonial title in the future, he needed to have a proper perspective.


    Yet...


    Ingrid held her chest as she looked at her grandson, and then expressed her concerns.


    "The only worry is that once he moves to Hell Monarch Estate, it will be harder for us to see him. I''ve also heard that Helen will be living at Hell Monarch Estate, and I''m concerned..."
