Hanna immediately protested, "Five years? Daisyseph just had surgery and still needsto take care of her..." "Shut up!" Nathan turned and glared fiercely at Hanna.
This was already a punishment as light as it could be. If Hanna were smart, she would know that now was not the tto talk back or be unrepentant, but to show weakness.
And Hanna understood the emotion behind Nathan's glare.

"Remington, Mom knows she messed up. I've been regretting it. That day in the hospital when I heard we lost the baby, I was shocked. It was an accident! I apologize to you. I'll go and explain to Lizetta, I..." Remington coldly withdrew his hand, his expression unchanging from beginning to end.
"No need, she wouldn't want to hear your apology. Ssins can't just be erased with repentance!" He looked at Hanna coldly, who was now crying, her expression full of regret.
But Remington smirked sarcastically, clearly not convinced of Hanna's remorse. She was just scared of the consequences now that her actions had cto light.
He turned to Nathan, "Sending her abroad for five years? Father's punishment is almost laughably lenient." Nathan frowned, "Remington, what do you suggest then?" Remington returned to the armchair, his voice grave.
"Call the police. Let her face the consequences she deserves." Hanna was in disbelief, "I am Mrs. Dashiell, your mother! You want to sendto prison?!" Nathan's expression changed, "No! I won't allow it! What would happen to the Dashiell family's reputation?!" Remington scoffed, "The Dashiell family's reputation is already in tatters!" He paused, then added, "If you don't want to go to jail, there's another option." Hanna's expression relaxed. She knew it. She was Remington's biological mother. Even if their relationship was strained, Remington couldn't ignore that fact. Sending her to jail would tarnish Remington's ntoo.
Nathan's expression softened as well, but the next second, they heard Remington say calmly, "I've also arranged for her to be admitted to a psychiatric hospital today for treatment. She doesn't need to cback until she's recovered." Hanna frowned, "What hospital? I'm not sick..." As she spoke, a chill ran down her spine. "A mental hospital?" She hoped she was overthinking, but Remington nodded.
"Exactly." "I won't go! No, you ungrateful child, you actually want to send your own mother to a mental hospital? I'm not sick! I don't..." "Not sick? Ha, what kind of sane person would harm their own grandson? You're not the one to decide whether you're sick or not!" Remington said coldly, ignoring Hanna's terrified and pale face, and instructed Ray, "If she refuses treatment, call the police!"

He angrily yelled at the others, but the servants of the mansion, no longer obeyed his commands, and his own people were not strong enough to contest. Amid Nathan's furious shouts, Hanna was restrained by two security guards.
"Prison or treatment, Father can choose for her." Remington left no third option. Hanna looked at Nathan pleadingly.
Nathan finally clenched his teeth and told her, "Your mental state indeed seems troubled Remington is doing this for your own good. Go and get srest, cback when you're better." Hanna couldn't believe Nathan would just leave her be. Angry
thoughts filled her mind, wanting to curse Nathan for his heartlessness, to curse Remington for his betrayal, but Remington signaled the security guards to gag Hanna. An hour later, Remington personally took Hanna to the hospital, which had decent facilities, a private room with a TV and a bathroom.
