Capítulo 193: A spotless mind

To hide one uncomfortable truth, Dr. Stacey had to weave a web of lies. She not only lied to Kevin but also to Dr. Zhao and Dr. Edna. But the person whom she lied to the most was herself. She kept telling herself that this was the only way to help Kevin. 

Though Cassandra hated being a part of this equation, she couldn't just walk away from her closest friend; after all her past was as dark as hers. The scientist in her told her that she was taking the most logical step to protect the boy, but deep down she knew it was another selfish ploy to protect their reputation.

Confronting the naked truth was an incredibly challenging task and Dr. Stacey wasn't up for the test. So when truth reared its ugly head, she smothered it with her lying hands, to avoid its uncomfortable gaze. It was a lot easier to lie to Kevin than to reveal all her dirty secrets and be held accountable for her actions.
