SWNOVELS Chapter 2234
"Don't!" Penn's voice cracked with panic. He turned his pleading gaze toward Rosalynn.
"I keep my promises. I won't go back on my word," Rosalynn said calmly, "She will live, live to a ripe old age."
Penn seemed to realize something.
"Penn, you lied to me too! You betrayed me!" Rose screamed as if she had lost her mind, furiously cursing Penn, "No wonder your parents got hit by a car on your birthday. Having a son like you was their sin, and getting hit was their karma! You'll meet a terrible end too!"
What's that saying? The one who can hurt you the deepest is the one who knows you best.
How could Rose not know what Penn's Achilles' heel was? It was nothing more than the tragic car accident that claimed his parents' lives as they hurried home for his birthday celebration.d2
For a long time, Rose had been consoling Penn with "It was just an accident, it wasn't your fault." But now, it was the same Rose, using that very accident as a knife, plunging it into Penn. Everyone has their breaking point.
Penn looked at Rose, the words begging for mercy almost escaping his lips.
"My mom was right, why did it have to be your parents who died? Because they deserved it!"
After she uttered these words. Penn withdrew his gaze, and the desperate emotion on his face faded away. He nodded slightly to Rosalynn, "I've got a ton of work back at the institute, so I won't linger." "Take him with you," Rosalynn gestured toward Letho.
Letho looked at Penn with terror, "Professor, I was tricked by her!"
"Let's go," Penn said without another word, not giving Rose another glance.
Letho, as if granted a reprieve, quickly followed Penn out.
Seeing Penn and Letho about to leave, Rose panicked, "Penn, stop, won't you take me with you? Are you going to leave me to them?!"
But Penn didn't look back.
"Penn! Brother Penn! You promised my mom you'd take care of me!!!" Rose cried out.
But what she didn't understand was that the moment she hurt Penn by cursing his parents, she was destined to lose him.
"Ma'am, she's too loud, shall I take her now?"
"Mm."
Rosalynn was squatting in front of Molly, cleaning her hands that had just broken Rose's fingers.
Molly was as docile as could be in front of her. Her eyes shone when she looked at Rosalynn.
"Rosalynn, where are you taking me?" Rose asked in terror, "Are you going to lock me up? That's illegal!! Wayne is fine, at worst it was just attempted, you can't do anything to me!"
"Are you sick in the head, and you don't even realize it?" Rosalynn stroked Molly's soft cheek, then turned to Rose, lifting her hand and drawing two circles near her temple with her index finger, "Lunatic." Rose's eyes widened in disbelief, shaking her head vigorously, "I'm not!"
"If you weren't, why would you do something so outrageous?" Rosalynn stood up, her voice icy, "When you're sick, you need treatment. I understand you're mentally ill, so I won't do anything to you. I'll just kindly send you to a psychiatric hospital for treatment."
Rose felt like she had been struck by lightning. She had been to many psychiatric hospitals with Penn. She knew how dreadful those places could be.
When Rosalynn said she wouldn't do anything, it meant she'd choose the worst psychiatric hospital possible.
"No, please! I don't want that!" Rose cried out in terror, "I'm sorry! Rosalynn, I realize my mistake! Wayne is fine, isn't he? Please let me go! I'll leave H Country, and I'll never show my face to you again! Just this once, spare me! Please!"
"You failed because I caught you in time!" Rosalynn's voice was bone-chilling cold. "What if I hadn't?"
