Where Petals of Vengeance Bloom novel Chapter 116

"Yes, but unfortunately, even though she's conscious, she still can't move her body."

"Since she's regained consciousness, it's only a matter of time before she fully wakes up."

"Mmm hmm..."

Upon hearing this, Claire whipped her head around.

The nurse jumped in surprise. "Did I hurt you? Just bear with it a little longer, it'll be over soon."

Claire stared intently at the nurse, her voice trembling, "The person you’re talking about, the one in a coma, is her name Irene?"

"Eh? How did you know?"

It really was Irene.

Irene was conscious.

Could this mean that she would soon be able to clear her name?

The thought made Claire burst into laughter, which quickly turned into tears.

Her mixed emotions startled the nurse.

"What—what’s wrong with you?"

"I'm just happy, happy for the person waking up."

The two nurses exchanged glances, puzzled, but said nothing more. After finishing with Claire's bandages, they left.

Tears continued to stream down Claire's face, her heart a tumultuous mix of emotions.

Five years of wrongful accusations, five years of imprisonment, and all those torturous days and nights she had quietly endured.

Now, with Irene conscious, it was like a sudden beam of light in the darkness, offering her hope of vindication.

After calming herself down, Claire decided she needed to see Irene.

Just as Claire got out of bed, May entered, carrying a thermos.

"Miss Claire, where are you heading?"

May looked into Claire’s resolute eyes. Despite her concerns, she nodded, "I'll come with you."

Claire hurried down the corridor.

Just as she reached Irene's room, she was stopped by a man guarding the door.

Seeing his face was like a bolt of lightning to Claire.

For the man wasn’t a stranger—he was the Linwood family’s chauffeur.

He was the one who had driven her to the auction.

He was Vanessa's personal driver.

May had once told her that since Vanessa's preschool days, he had been the one to ferry her around.

For nearly twenty years, he had been Vanessa's chauffeur.

His presence at the door could only mean Vanessa was inside.
