JASON walked up to a glass wall and said in a low voice, ”This glass wall is one-sided. We can't see the outside, but people outside can clearly see the people inside.” So, there's nothing we can do right now. We can only act according to the circumstances. ”

SUSAN sat down on the sofa and smiled wryly, ”It seems like we have no choice but to wait for death!”

JASON walked over to her side and gently comforted her, ”Don't worry, think of the best! At least for now, we know your father isn't sick. ”

SUSAN smiled wryly without saying anything.

At this moment, Mo Zixiao and the rest realized that something was wrong.

Mo Zixiao let Bell push him to the front of the group and asked, ”What exactly happened? Are we locked up here? ”

JASON patted his shoulder, ”It's fine. Don't worry, we'll take care of it. You should get some rest first! ”

He motioned for Bell to take him to the inner room.

Fortunately, the room inside had all the medicines that Mo Zixiao needed, which made them all feel a lot more at ease.

However, both JASON and SUSAN knew that the current security situation was only temporary. Once their goal was achieved, they would most likely immediately issue the order to execute them!

SUSAN's heart was in chaos. He tightly held JASON's hand and whispered, ”JASON, we shouldn't have brought Zi Xiao here.”

”Don't think too badly! The more it is in this situation, the more it cannot be messed up! ”

As JASON spoke, he looked around again and touched the SUSAN quietly.

SUSAN turned around and looked at him, following the hint of his eyes to his hand. Seeing that his hand was already quietly holding the phone, he tacitly turned his body to the side, pretending to snuggle up to him and block his way.

JASON quickly dialed out the old butler's number. However, he was unable to dial it out. There was actually no signal on his phone!

They had actually blocked all the cell phone signals in this room!

JASON angrily whispered, ”SHIT!”

”What's wrong? The butler didn't pick up? ” SUSAN asked quietly.

”It's not that he didn't pick up, but that he couldn't make the call at all! They had blocked the cellphone's signal here! We have no way of contacting the outside world. I knew it! How could they possibly commit such a low crime? And the level one mistake? ” JASON said, annoyed.

SUSAN sighed, ”Actually, even if we were to contact our family, I'm afraid it would be useless. After all, it was far from being able to hydrolyze near the fire. By the time the steward sent them here, they had everything they wanted. Our strength is no match for the army of a nation. Furthermore, they will not let us last that long! ”

JASON nodded and looked around, ”I have to think of a way to get out.” I think that the Secretary of State for National Security might be the one who planned all of this. As long as we take him down, we'll have a way out of here. ”

”I'm afraid he won't show it now,” SUSAN said helplessly.

”Don't worry. Let me think about it. We can always find a way to force him out! ” JASON gritted his teeth.

SUSAN stopped talking and buried its head deep in his arms.

If this was her final resting place, making her die in this palace that had suffocated her since she was young, then she would admit it.

As long as she had JASON by her side, she was satisfied.

However, it would be too unfair for Mo Zixiao to die with them!

He pitied Mo Zixiao, he pitied Xia Xinxin, and he pitied a child that hadn't been born yet.

Under Rick's protection, Xia Xinxin had not been forced to undergo electrotherapy nor had she been forced to take medicine for at least a week.

Her mind was becoming more and more flexible, her memory was slowly coming back to her, and her speech was gradually returning to its former agility.

That day, the male nurse took her to Rick's office as usual and left.

Rick closed the door, poured her a cup of hot coffee, served her a plate of pastries, a small plate of spiced peanuts, and a small plate of melon seeds. He said gently, smiling, ”I know you must have a lot to say to me today. ”You can say slowly, we have a whole day.

Xia Xinxin was extremely touched as she said in a low voice, ”Thank you.”

After a week together, Rick had taken special care of her.

Not only did he not let anyone else interfere with her treatment, but he also gave her a meticulous care in life.

Although the doctors and nurses in the hospital were gradually whispering to her about how Rick always left her alone in the office with the door locked tightly, and how he would stay there for hours at a time, they were all looking at her with warm eyes. She didn't care, because she knew Rick was a professional, and she was always trying to find a way to talk to her, to open her heart.

After all, after a few months in a mental hospital, no one could guarantee that a normal person's mind would be as healthy as it was when they came in.

Even though Xia Xinxin believed that other than being retarded and being unable to speak properly due to the electric treatment, she wasn't affected in any other way, but she was willing to cooperate with Rick as much as possible.

After all, he was an expert in this field, and everything he did had its reasons.
