After making up her mind, Gwendolyn, with her fists clenched, turned and ran toward the tightly shut
door on the right while Craig blanked out briefly.
Even Nico was taken aback and could not register what was happening.
“Gwendolyn!”
Craig was the first to react. He immediately raised his gun again and cocked it.
He was so anxious his eyes turned bloodshot as he threatened to pull the trigger at Gwendolyn.
At that critical juncture, a hand grabbed his wrist with so much strength that his aim went astray.
He whipped his head around, only to find that it was Cedrick. The latter was glaring at him with a grim-
looking face.
“Mr. Jenson…”
“How dare you aimed the gun at my wife! Are you sick of being the deputy director?”“
As those words fell, the tremendously intimidating Cedrick snatched the gun from Craig’s grip and
threw it on the ground.
The overbearing air Craig was exuding earlier faded with Cedrick’s presence.
Seeing Cedrick’s timely appearance, Gwendolyn swiftly turned the door handle, pushed open the door,
and dashed into the pitch-black room.
She stumbled her way to turn on the lights amidst the darkness. Astonishment overwhelmed her as
soon as she saw the situation inside the room.
Following behind, Nico was also stunned by the sight inside while he stood by the door.
There was no furniture in the room, not even a bed.
A woman with messy black hair lay on her side against the wall.
A weighty iron collar hung around her neck, and metal chains secured around her wrists and ankles
stretched all the way to the wall.
Multiple streaks of blood formed all over the parts of the skin where she was bound. It was apparent
she had put up a violent struggle before.
Having been exposed to the rays of light so suddenly, she could not help but begin shivering all over
and even cowered to a corner of the wall in fear. It was a pathetic sight to behold.
Gwendolyn gasped in shock. An ache spread through her whole body, and she dared not approach the
woman to verify her identity.
She was afraid she might lose control and kill Craig if that woman turned out to be Jennifer.
At the same time, she was relieved that Treyton did not follow them over. She reckoned he would lose
his sanity if he saw that sight in the room.
While Gwendolyn was still in a daze, Nico walked over and squatted beside the woman.
Sensing someone near her, the woman shuddered violently, almost as if she saw a beast.
Nico comforted in a low voice. “Don’t worry. I won’t hurt you. Mr. Jenson will seek justice for you!”
As he spoke, he carefully brushed her stray strands of hair aside.
The woman’s face was as white as a sheet of paper. The once clear and beautiful eyes became empty
and bleak.
Despite seeing that it was Nico, Jennifer remained expressionless.
It seems like she’s mentally unwell?
When Gwendolyn noticed that the woman turned out to be Jennifer, she felt her heart sting so badly
her eyes turned red. She clenched her fists, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Craig and Cedrick had been watching by the door.
Faced with the situation in the room, Craig parted his lips and prepared to explain with a straight face.
“Jennifer is ”
Smack!
A hard slap landed on Craig’s face before he could say anything.
“Craig, you aren’t human! How can you lock your sister up? You’re worse than an animal!”
Rage filled Gwendolyn. Seeing that Craig was in a trance and did not dodge her, she gave him another
slap on the same spot.
The fury within her and her capability in martial arts resulted in two forceful slaps toward Craig’s cheek.
leaving the latter with blood oozing out on the corner of his lips and a slightly swollen face.
Because Cedrick was present, Craig clenched his fists tight and put up with Gwendolyn without uttering
a word.
Right then, Gwendolyn lifted her hand again. The urge to kill Craig to help revenge Jennifer was
overflowing in her.
However, Cedrick stopped her before she took action. “That’s enough, Gwenny. Let’s hear him out
first.”
Cedrick pulled Gwendolyn into his embrace to calm her down with tender adoration.
He also affectionately blew on her slightly burning red palm and used his fingers to gently rubbed it to
alleviate the pain left behind after slapping Craig
Pursing his lips, Craig wiped the blood off the corner of his lip and explained, “I called a doctor over to
check on her previously. He said Jennifer’s severe cold and fever affected her brain, thus resulting in
her becoming mentally unsound and having a tendency to self-mutilate. I was worried she would hurt
herself again, so I locked her up on the rooftop and hired doctors to take care of her.”
Gwendolyn thought his explanation was full of lies and could not bring herself to believe him.
“How long only has it been since Jennifer’s return? My brother took her to the hospital for a body
check. before she came back. She was in good health. Besides, because she’s from the orphanage,
she’s better at enduring hardships than others and has a stronger physique than other girls. She has
only returned for less than a week, and yet she’s been driven to a mental breakdown and is even
abusing herself? Craig, do you think I’ll believe that you did nothing?”
Craig was left stumped by the barrage of questions she threw at him.
Just as he wanted to speak. Gwendolyn, unwilling to give him a chance to explain, turned to Cedrick
and said, “Hubby, as the deputy director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Craig imprisoned his
biological sister despite knowing that it’s wrong to do so. Aren’t you supposed to detain him for
questioning and give him a severe punishment if he’s indeed guilty?”
Cedrick nodded in response. “Theoretically speaking, there’s just no reason to lock one up with metal
chains and restrict one’s freedom, not even blood relatives.”
At this point, Craig interjected. “Mrs. Jenson. I can’t afford to bear the crime of illegal imprisonment. If
you don’t believe me, you can always summon a doctor to give Jennifer a test. I locked her up out of
love for her and an intention to help her get well. What wrong did I do?”
Gwendolyn coldly cast him a stern glare.
No. I can’t rebuke him.
She forced herself to regain her composure to ponder over the situation.
Right now, what’s most important is Jennifer’s psychiatric assessment. Everyone in the Newton family
is on Craig’s side. No one will speak up for Jennifer, Only after she’s mentally stable can we know what
she went through and what Craig has done to her.
With logical thinking, she decisively said, “All right, then. I want the Federal Bureau of Investigation to
take Jennifer away and do a psychiatric assessment to ensure fairness and impartiality. Is that fine with
you?”
Craig’s face fell. “Mrs. Jenson, Jennifer can’t leave the Newton residence. Under the doctor’s
treatment, her condition has gotten a lot better. If she leaves this room, she’ll go crazy and abuse
herself.”
Gwendolyn was resolute. “I won’t believe a single word you say. I’ll only believe in the results done by
an impartial doctor. We’ll take Jennifer with us. Only after the psychiatric assessment results are out
will you be able to prove your innocence. Understand?”
“Mr. Jenson”
Craig wanted to dissuade her, but Gwendolyn was enough of his nonsense. She turned to Nico and
immediately ordered, “Remove the metal chains and take Jenniter away.”
“Understood”
Nico had brought along a set of small tools in his military uniform. Without much effort, he pried open
all
A few of his soldier colleagues immediately went up to help him support Jennifer and headed
downstairs.
Gwendolyn turned around and trailed behind them worriedly.
Remaining planted on the ground. Cedrick uttered with a deep voice, “Before we find out what exactly
happened, you locking Jennifer up is the truth. Stop whatever tasks you have on hand, and you’re not
allowed to go anywhere. Stay at home to wait for orders. Do you have a problem with that?”
Craig tensed his jaw in distaste and resignedly responded, “No. I’ll abide by your instructions, Mr.
Jenson.”
Upon getting an answer from Craig, Cedrick turned and left without staying any further. With that, the
group swiftly left the Newton residence.
Following the piercing sounds of car engines tearing through the air of the quiet night, Charles,
standing on the balcony, furiously smashed the vase beside him.
