In the end, Joyce repeated Jonathan's question in Ustranian.
The doctor finally understood what the question was. He pushed up his black-rimmed
glasses and replied, “He's fine. He has recovered from the brain concussion.”
“Then why is he still unconscious?” Joyce asked.
The doctor was about to reply when the equipment in the ward started to beep.
At once, the doctor hurried back to Stanley's ward instead of answering their questions.
Jonathan stared at Joyce. “What's going on?”
Joyce shook her head, indicating that she knew nothing about it.
She asked, “Should we head inside to see what's going on?”
Jonathan agreed readily.
They both made their way into Stanley's ward, only to find that he was now conscious.
Caught by surprise, they halted in their tracks.
“He's awake. Dad, he's awake!” Joyce exclaimed as she pointed at Stanley.
Without a word, Jonathan clenched his fists and glared at Stanley.

Hearing Joyce's voice, Stanley stopped staring at the ceiling and turned to look at them. A
flash of surprise appeared in his eyes.
After regaining consciousness, he began to piece together the events that had led up to
his being in the hospital.
Jonathan's attack was so brutal that it sent me to the hospital. I don't remember exactly
how long ago that was, but it felt like an eternity. I was obviously beaten up pretty badly,
yet instead of finishing me off, the Riverses sent me to a hospital. Are they fools? They
must know that I despise them and that my continued existence could be a threat to their
safety. Why did they not take the opportunity to rid themselves of me?
If Stanley were to find himself in the same situation as the family, he would not hesitate to
take action by doing whatever was necessary to eliminate the person who had been an
adversary to his family for years. He would not take any chances by allowing the enemy to
remain alive and would instead seek to end the enemy's life as soon as possible.
He was right to call the Rivers family members fools.
Their foolishness was precisely the reason why their grudge lasted for over ten years.
If the Riverses had been cruel enough to end his life, he wouldn't still be alive to bring
harm to them.
Most importantly, he couldn't fathom why the Riverses didn't just kill him right there and
then.
Stanley looked down to conceal the emotions in his eyes.
The moment he awoke in the hospital, regret was the first emotion that flooded him. He
wished that the Riverses had chosen to put him out of his misery rather than allow him to
remain alive. He wasn't the least bit thrilled to find out that he was still alive.
Yes, Stanley wanted to die.
For at least a decade, he had harbored an intense and unyielding hatred for the Riverses,
believing that they were responsible for the death of his parents. This loathing was so
deep-seated that he felt a driving desire to see them all eradicated. That was why he was
revolted to discover that Joyce had developed feelings for him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDespite his disgust, he didn't stop Joyce from loving him. In fact, he often used hypnosis to
intensify her feelings for him, leaving her unable to forget him. Joyce couldn't stop loving
him and grew increasingly tormented.
That was one of the methods he had employed to exact retribution upon the Riverses.
However, whenever he spotted Joyce in a state of distress, he would feel an uncontrollable
surge of anger and frustration instead of delight.
Stanley had no idea why he would feel frustrated, but he was aware that revenge wouldn't
make him happy at all.
Regardless, he had no choice but to exact his revenge. Otherwise, his hatred for years
would've been in vain, being reduced to nothing more than a mere joke.
Yet, Shane and Sean had told him that he didn't hate the Riverses.
If he indeed despised them, he would've killed them all instead of allowing them to survive
until today. The hatred he claimed to experience was, in fact, a feeling of helplessness. He
couldn't save his parents and wanted to vent his frustration somewhere.
