Chapter 1090
The doctor continued, pulling out an IV needle, intending to insert it into Maja’s hand.
But upon seeing the needle, Eric shot up from his seat.
It was as if a painful memory had resurfaced, causing him to take a step back
The doctor looked at him, surprised, assuming he feared needles.
“Sir, if needles make you uncomfortable, just look away”
Eric lowered his eyes, his fingers trembling slightly. His anguish spread like spider webs, wrapping him tightly
He felt like he was suffocating, desperately trying to breathe, but the webs only tightened more.
The doctor didn’t look at him but inserted the needle into Maja’s hand..
Eric tried to control his trembling fingers
The doctor stood up. When the IV bag is empty, remember to remove the needle”

The doctor simply nodded politely and left
Enc so worried about Maja, should be staying by her side.
But he sat at a distance on the single–seater couch as if the place where she lay was a lions den.
After some time, he heard Maja’s pained voice.
Turning around, he saw that her blood had started to flow back into the tube.
He rushed forward, trying to remove the needle from her hand, but the memories in his mind overwhelmed him.
His fingers trembled, unable to grip the needle
He felt sick, aiming for the needle, but his hand kept missing.
After several attempts, he grew more anxious
Eric, the golden boy, never thought he’d be bested by a needle.
Maja opened her eyes to see a worried face.
Looking up she saw her own blood flowing back into the bottle. She quickly pulled out the needle
Angry at him, she thrust the needle at Eric without hesitation.
Eric didnt dodge, allowing the sharp needle to pierce his palm
His pupils contracted the last bit of color draining from his face.
He stood up hurriedly, uttering, im sorry, Maja”
Then he quickly left
Maja didn’t know where he was going
She tried to get up and leave but kept falling back down, feeling weak and nauseous
Eric entered a small cabin, locking himself in without hesitation.
The cabin had no windows. It was so claustrophobic that an average person might go insane after a few days, but
Eric found comfort in the enclosed space
He pressed his injured hand in the pitch–black room and slowly slid down the wall

Ten thousand times, so that’s how many times you ve been pricked, Eric It seems I’ve learned another secret You,
trapped in that observation box, like a lab rat Every time they injected a new drug, they’d watch your reaction. You
felt like you’d lost your dignity, being pricked all over your body more than ten thousand times it hurts, doesn’t it?”
Patric hadn’t experienced it, so his tone was light and mocking when he said it
“Shut up
Eric had never lost his composure before, but now he sat in oppressive darkness
Patric felt a sense of satisfaction. So Eric did have fears.
“No wonder I felt uneasy around sharp objects when i was in your body it’s your shadow”
Eric didnt respond, bis hair damp from sweat
“Eric, you’re sick Why don’t you just give me this body? Living is too shameful, too painful for you, isn’t it? Who
could live properly after going through what you did? Don’t worry As long as you willingly give up this body, I’ll help
you fulfill your wish You’re suppressing your negative emotions because there’s still a wish you haven’t fulfilled,
right?”
Patric ever wondered if this wish had something to do with Maja
