The font size wasnât big, nor was the title placed in an obvious spot.
Still, Sasha saw that article right away.
Bailed out? Perhaps this is Sebastianâs doing.
Sebastian mentioned that he would still make Solomon pay for what he did. With the bail put in place,
Solomon has regained his freedom, but he will be apprehended immediately if the police prove that he
is the culprit.
Moreover, with a label like that attached to Solomonâs name, he will not be able to be as free as he
used to be.
Meh, who cares, though? Iâve already kept my end of the bargain.
Sasha sighed a breath of relief before she took her mother-in-law to the psychiatric department.
Frieda had recovered a lot by then. She no longer behaved like she did when she first got out. At the
very least, she didnât fear anyone, scream or jump to hide away.
âHi, Mrs. Hayes. Oh, youâre here with your mother-in-law. How is she lately?â
âSheâs pretty good.â
Sasha entered the room with Frieda and saw the same doctor that had been treating the latter. As
Sasha got Frieda onto a seat, she told the doctor how Frieda had been over the past few days.
Frieda, on the other hand, bulged her eyes and scanned the consultation room like a curious kid.
It seemed that all mentally ill patients behaved that way.
Their brains no longer processed information like a normal person, and they were especially innocent
and simple. That got their eyes to shine with purity.
Frieda was a kind person, to begin with, so she was especially innocent.
Those innocent eyes got the doctor to smile as he examined Frieda. He informed, âThis is great. I think
your mother-in-law will be a sweet person once she recovered.â
âYeah,â replied Sasha, who had no doubt about that.
After the doctor finished examining everything, he decided to hypnotize Frieda once more to help her
recover faster.
âDonât worry, Mrs. Hayes. Weâre just using this method to learn the root of her illness before we treat
her. It wonât take long. Ten minutes will do.â
âOkay,â replied Sasha, who agreed to let the doctor hypnotize Frieda.
After that, the doctor began treatment while Sasha took the prescription to the pharmacy to get Friedaâs
medicine.
âNancy.â
Sasha didnât anticipate it, but as she was leaving the elevator, a man with a cap and a face mask on
suddenly barred her path.
Sasha instantly turned pale.
âSolomon? W-what are you doing here? Arenât you supposed to beâ¦?â
âI knew it! You are the one who made him set me free.â
The man standing in front of her had a pair of sunglasses on, and he grinned after hearing what Sasha
said in that tone. At that moment, no one knew if he was surprised or was just grinning in self-mockery.
Sashaâs expression stiffened.
She instinctively scanned around nervously.
âWhat the hell are you talking about? I donât understand what you mean. I have to go collect the
medicine now,â said Sasha before she tried to circle around him to leave.
When the guy saw her leaving, however, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. He didnât give
her a chance to talk before dragging her to a somewhat secluded corridor.
âSolomon, what the hell are you doing? Let me go!â complained Sasha.
She instantly began struggling.
The guy didnât let her go, though. Instead, he pushed her harshly to the wall.
âWhat the hell do you think Iâm doing? Iâve already forced myself to give up on you, so why are you
doing all this now? Why give me hope?â
âNo, thatâs not it!â screamed Sasha in a terrified voice immediately, âI have no idea what youâre talking
about. I am not interested in your matters at all, and Iâ¦â
âMy mom told me everything. She said that you are the one she begged for help.â
All it took was two sentences to get Sasha, who had been denying everything, to freeze like someone
had flipped a switch in her brain.
Every word she was about to utter suddenly got stuck in her throat, and she couldnât speak.
Yancy⦠She actually told him about it. Did she do it on purpose?
âDonât worry. I wonât cause any trouble. I only dropped by today to tell you that I have nothing to do with
Frederickâs death. The truth is that I never ordered the hit,â said the guy before he let her go.
It seemed he was satisfied after seeing her reaction.
Sasha trembled vigorously. She couldnât see or hear anything anymore. A devastating chill ambushed
her from her head to her toe.
It only took a few seconds for her to feel the cold spreading all over her body.
She never thought that Yancy would be that evil.
At that moment, Sasha finally understood what Yancyâs true objective was.
She was killing two birds with one stone! First, she blackmailed me by threatening Sebastianâs well-
being, then told her son that I was the one who rescued him.
The situation would make Solomon think that Sasha felt bad for him. That would reignite the hope
within him and he would start pestering Sasha again.
That woman is truly vile.
If Solomon continued pestering Sasha, her relationship with Sebastian would be threatened. It was
basically equivalent to strapping a time bomb to that relationship.
Sasha was so angry that she was about to go insane.
Just then, a sound came over from the other end of the corridor. âSasha, there you are. What are the
two of you doing here? Iâve been looking everywhere for you.â
