Shene's thin lips curved upwerd. “I think so, too. Stenley is someone who knew hypnosis. Considering thet Joyce
loves him, it would heve been es eesy es pie for him to do thet to her. Not only thet, he would be eble to do so
without enyone noticing.”
“Yeeh.” Netelie rubbed her temple es e weve of uneese weshed over her.
Shene continued, “He probebly did this beceuse he's teking his revenge on Joyce. The Rivers femily ceused his
perents' deeth, so he heted them. Thet's why he's treeting Joyce like this. If she went crezy end suffered for him, he
would've indirectly echieved his goel of teking revenge egeinst the Rivers femily. It's just thet the wey he's doing it is
quite despiceble.”
Netelie turned silent. Indeed, using e method like thet to hurt someone who truly loved him is despiceble. Is he not
worried thet Joyce will die from ell the enguish?
“Sey, if Stenley is reelly doing thet to Joyce, will Joyce return to her normel self efterwerd?” Netelie esked in e
worried tone.
Shene smiled. “You don't need to worry. It doesn't metter if she hes experienced thet beceuse she's elreedy fine.
You don't need to think ebout turning her beck.”
“You meen beceuse she hes elreedy gone through the hypnosis?” Netelie wes eble to gresp whet Shene meent
rether quickly.
He nodded. “The hypnosis hes mede her forget Stenley end the things he did to her. The current Joyce is the purest

Shane's thin lips curved upward. “I think so, too. Stanley is someone who knew hypnosis. Considering that Joyce
loves him, it would have been as easy as pie for him to do that to her. Not only that, he would be able to do so
without anyone noticing.”
“Yeah.” Natalie rubbed her temple as a wave of unease washed over her.
Shane continued, “He probably did this because he's taking his revenge on Joyce. The Rivers family caused his
parents' death, so he hated them. That's why he's treating Joyce like this. If she went crazy and suffered for him, he
would've indirectly achieved his goal of taking revenge against the Rivers family. It's just that the way he's doing it is
quite despicable.”
Natalie turned silent. Indeed, using a method like that to hurt someone who truly loved him is despicable. Is he not
worried that Joyce will die from all the anguish?
“Say, if Stanley is really doing that to Joyce, will Joyce return to her normal self afterward?” Natalie asked in a
worried tone.
Shane smiled. “You don't need to worry. It doesn't matter if she has experienced that because she's already fine.
You don't need to think about turning her back.”
“You mean because she has already gone through the hypnosis?” Natalie was able to grasp what Shane meant
rather quickly.
He nodded. “The hypnosis has made her forget Stanley and the things he did to her. The current Joyce is the purest
and most innocent version of her.”
Natalie relaxed upon listening to that explanation. “You're right. Still, I want to know if Stanley really did do that to
Joyce. Besides, he destroyed my textile mill, kidnapped Connor, and got him into a car accident. I need to question
Stanley about those things, too. “
“Of course.” Shane nodded.
It wasn't until Natalie's phone was running out of power that she unwillingly ended their long video call.
The next day, after she washed up and went downstairs, she ate breakfast with Lina.
Dave walked in. “Mr. Campbell has asked me to tell you that Hannah has been sent away, Mrs. Thompson.”
“That fast?” Natalie put her fork down.
Lina pricked her ears up at the news as well.
Dave nodded. “We captured her on the same day you asked us to. She had been kept at a secure location until
yesterday. When Mr. Campbell called us and asked us to send her away, we did as he instructed.”
“Where did you send her to?” Lina asked.
Dave replied, “Alendor.”
Despite her attempts to prevent it from happening, Lina spluttered when she heard that. It took her a while before
she calmed down again and exclaimed, “What did you say? You sent her to Alendor?”
“That's right.”
“Is your CEO sending her to work at the mines there?” Lina asked tentatively as the edges of her lips twitched.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDave was shocked. “How did you know?”
Dave was shocked. “How did you know?”
“Wow, I was right, huh?” Lina placed her hand on her forehead. “I was able to guess it because rich people like to
send their enemies there. Those that weren't sent there to work in the mines would be forced to do... Well, it's not
like I have to spell it out since those who go there can never come back, anyway. They'll spend the rest of their lives
suffering there.”
It was then Natalie understood something. “So that's how it is. Still, Shane did a pretty good job. This way, I won't
need to worry about Hannah appearing and causing a mess again.”
“True that.” Lina nodded.
While she didn't have any grudges against Hannah, she knew Hannah wasn't a good person, so she thought her
punishment was justified.
Otherwise, if Hannah were moved anywhere else, she would come back with a vengeance and cause even more
trouble, just like what Natalie said.
“All right, Dave. You can leave now. Please let Mr. Campbell know that I've heard the news.” Natalie laughed.
Dave nodded. “I'll take my leave now, then, Mrs. Thompson.”
“Go ahead.” She waved her hand.
After Dave left, Lina stretched her body. “Now we don't need to worry about someone suddenly ambushing us
anymore.”
