At the South District Psychiatric Hospital
As soon as Isabella set foot in the hospital, she heard rumors of personnel changes. The hospital's deputy director, who had made a deal with her mother Amelia under the table, and all the people associated with him had been dismissed.
Everyone who knew Amelia or helped her do things had been laid off as well.
Looking at the people being sent out of the hospital, Isabella felt something was wrong. As she did not know what the deputy director of the hospital looked like, she simply ignored him when he winked at her on his way out.
She thought her mother had arranged everything for her, but things did not feel right. At the moment, she had no idea that both her parents had just been arrested.
She was still complacent. She thought that as long as she stayed in the hospital for a few days, she would be okay. Her parents would definitely find a way to get her out.
Isabella was taken to a clean private ward, which was brightly lit and looked comfortable.
Upon entering the ward, she ran a finger on top of the nearest table and inspected the mantle. There was no dust, but she still wrinkled her nose. "This is my room? It's disgusting," she pointed out bluntly.
Amy just kept her face neutral. She thought, 'This girl is unbelievable, not to mention ungrateful.
Does she think she's on vacation?'
to the director's office and asked someone to bring Isabella to him.
Isabella shivered with fear when she saw John.
'Where are my mom and dad?
Why is Mr. Shi here?' she thought.
John glanced at her with narrow eyes. "I'll spare your life if you tell me about Memory Charm in detail."
Albert was dead, and the lab he set up was shut down. John could not find the researchers that worked for him.
Isabella was the only one left who knew about Memory Charm.
John took everything that involved Nina seriously. He could not let himself be careless.
Isabella simply blinked and asked, "Why are you here? Where is my mom? Where is my dad?"
"In jail," Henry answered seeing that John didn't want to answer her questions.
Isabella's eyes widened in disbelief.
Her panicked eyes darted from Henry to John and then back. "Jail? What happened? What did you do to them?"
Henry replied, "They have done illegal things. It's only right that they end up behind bars. One committed kidnapping and the other committed economic fraud. They would have to be in prison for several years. You'd better tell the truth about Memory Charm. Otherwise, you'll be kept in this hospital for several years as well."
'You will really be mentally ill after living in a psychiatric hospital for a few years. It'll be impossible for you to leave then,' Henry thought.
