My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 587: A Treasure

Florence followed the bodyguard and quickly walked to the villa where Benjamin was being held.

She had guessed before that Benjamin might be tortured terribly, but she had not imagined that Benjamin could be so miserable.

In the dark and depressing room, where there was not even a single ray of sunlight, Benjamin’s hands and feet were chained with heavy iron chains. The scars from the explosion had not yet been healed but were picked open and dripping with blood on his body.

But yet, medicine was applied to it so that he wouldn’t bleed to death or become infected.

On the parts of his body that were not so severely wounded, Benjamin had all sorts of strange cuts and marks.

There was not a single piece of intact skin to be found all over his body, not even on the soles of his feet.

He was lying on the ground and in a mess, not even like a human being.

It was worse than being alive.

Florence stared at him blankly, unable to tell what she felt in her heart.

There was no sympathy or pleasure.

A proud man who once could have whatever he wanted was now in this state, sad and lamentable.

To Benjamin, death was the only way to be decent.

But, being able to die was extravagant for him now.

The bodyguard stood alertly beside Florence, carefully shielding her.

“Miss, don’t go too far over. He’s covered in blood, lest you dirty your shoes.”

These tones and words indicated as if Benjamin was a stinking mess of rubbish on the ground.

Benjamin’s body, which was lying stiffly on the ground, moved weakly as if to express his anger.

Florence pursed her lips, looking at him with a sullen gaze.

“He never opened his mouth?”

“Yes. He’s so stubborn, not afraid of any torture or pain. He’s so obsessed with going to die with another person.”

The bodyguard said with a headache.

Florence frowned as she heard it with a heavy heart. Benjamin’s obsession was too deep and reckless, just like a madman.

He was fearless, not even afraid of dying.

Then, how to make him talk?

“It won’t be that easy for him to die.”

Gnashing of teeth came from the doorway.

Collin, dressed in casual clothing and holding a small, black box in his hand, walked over with a grim face.

He looked at Benjamin with a gritty gaze as if he wanted to stomp him to death right now.

However, Collin still had to let Benjamin alive.

This was so annoying.

Florence looked at Collin, and her gaze fell upon the box in his hand.

“So this is the ‘The Lifesaver’?”

Collin was a doctor, and all the medicine was under his control.

But this medicine was indeed valuable. It was sent all the way from the Fraser family by plane, and Collin went to get it personally.

Moreover, Collin couldn’t even open it.

Collin nodded as he handed the box to Florence. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“You stick your finger into this notch, and it will hurt a little. It needs a little of your blood to open it.”

The movement of Florence holding the black box paused.

Why did it need a drop of blood to open it?

This was too solemn!

Florence’s gaze changed as she looked at the black box, hesitated, and said tentatively, “Collin, Benjamin isn’t dead yet either. Your medical skill is unparalleled. As long as there’s still a breath, you can save him, right? How about you try to resuscitate him?”

Then, they wouldn’t need to waste something so precious.

Collin walked over to Benjamin with a grim face and turned his entire body off the ground so that he was facing up.

He said, “Look for yourself.”

Florence gasped when she saw it.

Not sure how did Collin do it. A fist-sized chunk was dented in Benjamin’s left chest, and bones fractured in several places. Even broken bones that pierced out of his skin could be seen.

And so, there must be broken bones pierced into his heart too.

Moreover, his chest was severely dented, that his heart was deformed.

Florence curled her lips with her eyes widened, “He’s still alive after all these?”

This had wholly overturned her perception of the human body.

Collin looked disgusted, “If it wasn’t for me, would he still be alive? It’s exhausting trying to resuscitate him.”

He hated to kick Benjamin to death.

Florence was shocked initially but then turned into admiration for Collin from the bottom of her heart.

If Collin could still save Benjamin’s life after being like that, his medical skills were indeed the pinnacle of the medical world, a miracle that no one else could even imagine.

Collin stood up and looked at Florence with regret.

“It’s just a pity that I can only keep him alive for a while, but not too long. And he can’t even reach the physical conditions to continue the torture. So…”

He looked at the box in Florence’s hand, “We still need to use it.”

Florence was even more amazed, “With this, you can bring Benjamin back to life, being as healthy as a normal person?”

Collin snorted coldly.

“Sort of. This thing is a real life-saving treasure. But, unfortunately, there are only two bottles of it in the entire Fraser family. And it’s for Stanford in case of…”

Collin suddenly realized something and hurriedly shut his mouth.

Florence frowned and asked, “What’s the matter with my brother?”

“It’s nothing.”

Collin’s eyes flickered as he avoided Florence and walked towards her, “Anyway, there’s still got one. It’s a treasure, but yet, it’s not a unique item that can’t be used. Open it quickly. Benjamin is about to die real soon.”

Hearing Collin said this, Florence was puzzled, but she didn’t hesitate much longer.

Benjamin’s life wasn’t necessary. But, his life was related to Clarence.

Regardless of whether it was a matter of repaying or for friendship, Clarence’s life had to be saved.

Florence took the black box and inserted her finger into the groove of the box.

Just as she placed it firmly, her finger was suddenly pricked by something that hurt a little.

Then, a clicking sound could be heard, and inside the box, there seemed to be some kind of gears turning.

After about half a minute, the seemingly seamless black box split down the middle.

A small, transparent bottle was revealed inside.

And there was a liquid-like substance inside the bottle.

So, such a small liquid could save lives?

Florence was shocked, but she didn’t suspect anything.

Something that could be treated as a treasure by Collin and the Fraser family was absolutely a real treasure.

Collin’s gaze was fiery as he looked at the small bottle with a glint in his eyes.

He had long coveted this item for a long time but had never had the chance to have it. What a stroke of luck for Benjamin.

“I’ll do it.”

Collin spoke eagerly and carefully picked up the bottle, opened it. He placed it in front of his nose and sniffed.

He appeared to be revelling in it, just like drugging.

Florence looked at Collin strangely, as she had never seen Collin look this before.

She was even worried that Collin would not be able to resist and drink the whole bottle in one gulp.

After having several sniffs, Collin then took the small bottle down unwillingly and walked over to Benjamin.

“What a stroke of luck for you!”

Collin gritted his teeth word by word.
