Chapter 1602 "Harry has made mistakes. I won't cover for him..." Old Madam Atherton paused and added euphemistically, "He's my only son and Edwin's father. If he is imprisoned and the news is spread, it will bring disgrace on the whole Atherton family. With the status of the Atherton family, the scandal may even cause volatility in the stock market. Do you understand?"
Joanne felt disappointed. 'As soon as I saw Old Madam Atherton, I should have realized that she would defend her son.'
"So what?"
Old Madam Atherton said resignedly, "So I will order a bed for him in Western Hill Sanatorium and proclaim that he is seriously ill and needs recuperation. He won't be allowed to leave there, and no one will be allowed to visit him. He will spend the rest of his life there."
Joanne fell into a trance. She thought Old Madam Atherton came here to defend Harry.
Joanne had heard about Western Hill Sanatorium. It was in a remote suburb of Sapphire City.
Its location was bad. It was cold in winter and hot in summer. What was worse, there were no good resources and medical workers. Not long ago, it was reported that the nursing workers abused patients there.
Although being in the sanatorium would be freer for Harry than in prison, in Old Madam Atherton's opinion, there wouldn't be a big difference.
"Mom! What are you talking about?" Harry panicked. No matter how sorry he felt for Tail, he was reluctant to be placed under house arrest.
"Don't you come here to protect me? I won't go to the sanatorium! I'm looking forward to playing with my granddaughter! Cat, please help me persuade your grandmother..." NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Uncle Harry, you have made mistakes. Of course, you need to receive punishment. Don't you say that you have realized that you're wrong? You will just be sent to the sanatorium. The punishment is light enough. I know there is a mental hospital in Western Hill. Many daughters-in-law have sent unreasonable old men there. After one or two years, the old men will be obedient."
Harry widened his eyes and suspected that he had misheard Catelyn. He stood up from the ground and pointed at
Catelyn angrily.
"Wicked girl! I'm your uncle. How can you kick me when I'm down? Mom, have you been bewitched by Catelyn? I'm your son. Edwin, I'm your father. How can you be so unfilial?"
Edwin was also surprised by Old Madam Atherton's decision. He sneered, "If you weren't my father, you would be a dead man."
Harry breathed heavily, covered his heart with one hand, and acted as if he had a heart attack in anger.
Edwin ignored Harry, felt sorry for Old Madam Atherton that he had suspected her, and held Joanne's hand.
"Baby, do you want him to go to the sanatorium, the mental hospital, or the prison? If you have any other opinions, tell me. I will satisfy you."
Edwin looked at Joanne sincerely. It seemed that he would satisfy her whatever she wanted.
Joanne bit her lower lip slightly.
Harry covered his heart more tightly and tried his best to squeeze several drops of sweat with a pale face. His sweat mixed with the blood on his forehead. Only then did he look miserable.
"Joanne, you must be reluctant to see Edwin being scolded for killing his father. Please have mercy on me and let me go.
Suddenly, Joanne became the center of attention. She showed no mercy to Harry. "Granny has made a good decision. Western Hill Sanatorium is suitable for you. Edwin and I will go to visit you."
Edwin said to Lucas, "Take him away."
For an instant, Harry tasted blood and spat a mouthful of blood.
Several bodyguards grabbed Harry's arms and dragged him out.
Harry struggled hard, but could not free himself. Being grabbed by the strong bodyguards, he could do nothing but glare at Edwin with a murderous gaze.
