When Leia heard the knock on the door, she thought that Selena was as predictable as can be.
Selena put down the spoon in her hand, wiped her hands with a snow-white handkerchief, then picked up the phone on the table and sent a video to Hattie.
She didn't say anything, and naturally Leia didn't bother to open the door for the group.
The video was picked up and Hattie appeared on the screen.
She was already awake, sitting on the bed with her arms clasped, her skin exposed outside her pyjamas, pale.
She was in unnatural dead silence.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hattie," Selena spoke, her tone light, "lift your head up." Hattie's eyelashes trembled, probably because Selena's voice was so penetrating, or maybe she was the only one who had redeemed her in those dim days, so she obeyed and slowly lifted her head.
Leia felt distressed for Hattie.
Hattie's normally dark, clear eyes were now bloodshot, as if they were seeping with blood.
Selena's fingers pressed her brow, her tone inaudible with emotion, "Open that video and show it to her." The doctor frowned and subconsciously tried to stop, "Lady Selena-" Selena swept her eyes over.
The doctor was stunned.
The source of Hattie's illness was Kaitlyn in the video. Hattie's current mental state is so bad that even if she were to be treated, she couldn't pick this time.
But no one dared to refute what Selena said.
The doctor picked up the phone on the table, found the full video that had been released and placed it in front of Hattie's eyes.
Hattie looked at Kaitlyn, her dead gaze once again becoming sharp and subconsciously she was about to smash someone.
Selena said coldly, "Watch her. Keep her smile and smugness deep in your psyche, and always remember how smug your enemy is now." "If you don't even have the courage to look her in the eye, then you cannot avenge your mother." "They won't show you mercy just because you're a child, they'll just trample on you and tear you apart more and more, so that you can die and their family of four can rest easy from now on." "Hattie, you have no right to be afraid. If you are afraid, retreating and fearful, your mother will have died in vain, and the family of four will live in the house that belongs to you and your mother, enjoying your and your mother's favour and position, will live a beautiful and happy life." "In the end it will be just you and your mother reduced to a tragedy that will be completely forgotten, so be strong and watch her." Listening to Selena seemed to have become an instinct for Hattie, and the icy sharpness in her eyes gradually froze.
She was clearly trembling with fear, but persisted with unwavering focus, her eyes fixed firmly on the screen.
She stared at Kaitlyn who was brightly flaunting her status as Miss Riddle, shouting justifiably that her mother was dead, that she had been thrown out of the house and that everything in the Riddle family now belonged to their family of four.
Hattie watched while crying, teardrops falling in large globs from those blood-soaked eyes. The doctors and nurses could not bear to see it.
Leia huffed and couldn't wait to rush out and take that bogeyman outside the door by the scruff of the neck.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHattie would go crazy, definitely because Kaitlyn and that bad woman did something.
Her mental illness may not have been caused by the abuse in the reformatory at all, but by the family's use of some vicious means to force it out This tactic is also, in all probability, related to Hattie's mother's death.
Son of a bitch.
Leia was in anger, staring at the door and clutching the puppet in her arms.
As she watched Hattie's white face was streaked with tears, Selena's voice softened, "Look, she's actually not scary at all, a few words from me would make her cry and bow her head.” "Hattie, you are the high and mighty young lady, before you she will always be a lowly bastard daughter.” "Only they are afraid of you, you don't need to fear them at all.” "It is they who have done wrong, they are the bad guys, all you have to do is to get well, then return to the Riddle family and be that open and reckless young miss, so that the people of this family will grovel to you, retreat and humble themselves, seeing you is like seeing a knife hanging over their heads." "You can torture them as much as you like, humiliate them, trample on them, and give them back tenfold the pain they once inflicted on you." "After you've collected the debt from the juvenile hall, and finally after you will avenge your mother.” Accompanied by Selena's voice, the sharpness in Hattie's eyes stalled, she raised her head, her hollow eyes struggling to gather a trace of focus, her voice hoarse as she shouted, "Selena." Selena smiled faintly, "Hattie, look, | will make her kneel down today and kowtow to you and your mother to make amends." Selena turned around and looked out the door.
Leia understood and pushed the door open with an unkind look in her eyes, saying in an extremely impulsive tone, "What are you knocking for, don't we need to sleep in the morning?" Standing outside the door was Kaitlyn, followed by a bunch of reporters carrying cameras.
Leia looked at the stand and was in rage.
Seeing the murderous aura in Leia's eyes, Kaitlyn was startled and opened her mouth, "I'm sorry, I'm here to apologize to Selena.” Leia stared at her with an unfriendly look and said, "If you want to apologize, just apologize. What's the point of having so many reporters with you? Are you trying to put on a show with Lady Selena?" Kaitlyn was on the verge of tears, "I'm sorry." A young man behind her stepped forward and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Miss, we are from the Riddle family, the old master and the old lady were overjoyed to learn of Lady Selena's existence, and specially asked us to come and take Lady Selena home." Leia narrowed her eyes. He brought out the old couple of the Riddle family as soon as she opened his mouth, was this specifically to give Lady Selena a head start? That damned woman.
"What a joke. Lady Selena has nothing to do with the Riddle family, so why should she go home with you?" Leia said coldly, "Lady Selena wants to sleep, don't bother her." Leia said, raising her hand to close the door.
But the man propped up his hand on the door panel, the smile on his face remained the same, but his tone was more than a touch aggressive, "Miss, this is an important matter, we must see Lady Selena.” Leia felt the force coming from the door, and hostility rose in her eyes. With a cold laugh, she increased the force on her hand and slammed the door shut with a loud "bang".
The young man took a quick step back, but was still almost caught in the hand.
