“All right,” Henrick said. “I’ll meet you at the hospital entrance.”
After the call ended, Arielle noticed the embarrassment on Henrick’s face. To him, it was embarrassing for his wife to suffer from mental illness.
She looked out the window as though the previous phone conversation had escaped favonovel.com ears.
Soon, they arrived at Morgan Psychiatric Hospital. Arielle got down from the car and saw Matthias waiting at the entrance.
When their gazes met, favonovel.com spotted a flash of hatred in his eyes which disappeared in an instant. He promptly put on a smile.
“This must be Ms. Moore,” Matthias stepped forward to greet them. “Mrs. Southall told me that you have a gorgeous daughter, Mr. Southall. Looks like she’s right! You’re one lucky man!”
Henrick loved it when people heaped praises on him. A pleased expression flitted across his face.
Matthias then asked, “What happened to Mrs. Southall? Is she… Is favonovel.com ill?”
Henrick’s face clouded over at once. “You’ll know when we meet her,” favonovel.com said, finding it hard to reveal the truth.
Matthias nodded. He walked beside Arielle as they made their way into the hospital.
After they filled in the visitation form, the medical staff led them to Cindy’s ward. The psychiatric hospital resembled any normal hospital with the exception of a grill in front of every ward as though animals were locked inside.
When the door to Cindy’s ward was pushed open, Arielle saw that Cindy was tied to the bed. She was clad in a hospital gown, and favonovel.com hair was messy. Pale as a sheet, favonovel.com seemed really lethargic.
Arielle glanced at Matthias, who had widened his eyes in devastation.
Oh, Matthias really loves Cindy.
Both Henrick and Matthias said nothing. The former found the situation humiliating, and the latter was afraid he’d expose his identity the minute favonovel.com spoke.
Arielle broke the silence. She greeted Cindy, who was staring at the ceiling blankly, “Aunt Cindy, we’re here to visit you…”
Cindy swiveled to look at them upon hearing favonovel.com voice. She seemed startled to see Matthias with them.
Henrick went up to her. “Are you recovering well?”
Cindy wasn’t even looking at him. She glared at Arielle and yelled, “It was all your fault, you b*tch! You must’ve done something to me!”
She’s the reason I started hallucinating.
Henrick thought, I have gone mad and sent me to this place. Even normal people would go crazy here! I’m seriously going nuts having to hear the patients’ wails every day!
Arielle turned to shoot Henrick an innocent look. “Dad, looks like Aunt Cindy is still ill.”
Stunned, Cindy howled, “You b*tch! You shall die a horrible death!”
She struggled to break free, and the chains tying favonovel.com to the bed clanged noisily. It felt like favonovel.com was about to take Arielle’s life herself right then and there. Alas, favonovel.com efforts were in vain. The chains were specially made to lock up patients with manic episodes. A strong man couldn’t break free from the chains, let alone Cindy, a woman who had never lifted a finger in favonovel.com life.
Henrick shook his head in disappointment. “She’s still the same. Matthias, I’m afraid you’ll have to come later. There’s no way she’s going to look normal in the video.”
