Chapter 874 Disabled
Meanwhile, Tiffany was sent back to her residence. Hendrey summoned a doctor to examine her, who
was still unconscious. And the doctor’s diagnosis truly shocked him.
He was aware that Veronica had never liked Tiffany, but he had no idea her outburst of power would be
so powerful.
When he heard the doctor say that the slap was so strong that it caused the rupture of Tiffany’s
eardrum, and she needed to be hospitalized now, he furrowed his brow and looked at the woman who
was lying on the bed.
The woman looked the same as Veronica, but she had a completely different personality. Even when
they both stood together, their auras were poles apart. “Okay. You may get going now.” Hendrey sent
the doctor away.
He then sat in the room for a while, not realizing how long the time had passed, until Tiffany regained

She then raised her hand to touch her cheeks, but even the slightest touch caused her excruciating
pain. Her cheeks were also swollen as if she had something in her mouth. “Are you awake?”
Hendrey approached her and fixed his cold gaze on her, his aloof face showing no emotion at all.
Tiffany, on the other hand, pushed herself up by pressing her palms against the bed. “How long was I
unconscious?”
He lifted his hand to check his watch. “A little over two hours.” Suddenly, she moved her hand to touch
her ears, followed by a tight frown on her face. “Hendrey, my ear… Why can’t I hear now?”
Earlier, when Hendrey first talked to her, she was more worried that her face would be disfigured and
did not realize her ear’s condition.
It wasn’t until Hendrey said his second sentence that she realized her left ear was deafeningly silent.
That shocked her so much that her face turned pale as she continued to pat her ear. However, no
matter how hard she patted, she couldn’t hear anything.
“What happened to me? Why couldn’t I hear anything in my left ear now? Call the doctor!”
She was so terrified that she lost control of her expression and refused to accept reality.
Hendrey, on the other hand, simply stood calmly by the side and told her, “I have talked to the doctor
just now. He said that your left ear is deaf.”
Truth was, Hendrey had his selfish reason for saying this.
His feelings for Veronica had never changed, whether in the past or now.
He admired and loved her, but he knew he could not stay by Veronica’s side because of his situation.
At the same time, he couldn’t tolerate Tiffany’s presumptuousness any longer.
To him, this incident was a good lesson for Tiffany.
“That’s impossible! It was only a slap; how could my ear become deaf from that? It is not possible!”
She was so overwhelmed with fear that tears began to fall as she agitatedly tossed the blanket aside,
intending to dash outside.
Hendrey, however, quickly grabbed her elbow. “Don’t you believe me?”

“Get your hand off me! Let me go!”
Tiffany tried to shake his hand off, but she couldn’t free herself from his firm grip.
“Let me go! I need to see a doctor right now. I cannot be deaf, no!” she screamed hysterically.
Her deafness in one ear rendered her a disabled person.
She could not accept being disabled, especially since she couldn’t hear anything in her left ear except
tinnitus.
It was as if someone was tightly covering her ear, allowing her to hear only a faint buzzing sound,
which was extremely uncomfortable.
“Going to the hospital now is the same as announcing to the entire world that you are deaf. What worth
would you have if everyone knows about it?”
In a calm tone, Hendrey went on, “The hidden clan will never accept a disabled leader. If you are
unable to compete for the position of leader, you will be abandoned!”
