Leon waited for a while, but there was still no sound from inside. He walked up and knocked on the door twice. "If you don't open the door, I'll call Selena."
The next second, there were fast footsteps running inside, and Hattie stood at the door, shouting loudly, "I'm not sick! Tell them all to leave!"
Leon glanced at the few psychologists from the Riddle family who had just been sent over.
After Daphne returned to the Riddle family, she seemed to have suddenly become enlightened and had someone investigate Selena carefully. Then she "accidentally" found out about Hattie's psychological illness. In shock, she immediately called several famous psychologists from the capital.
Leon frowned. "Did you all hear what the young lady said?"
"But, Madam Riddle told us to make sure we treat Miss Hattie well and then tell her the results when we go back. If we leave like this, we won't be able to explain it to Madam Riddle..." said one of the psychologists.
There were sounds of things being smashed in the room, accompanied by Hattie's angry screams. "I don't want her concern! Go away! All of you, get out of here!!"
Leon's brow furrowed even more tightly.
Hattie's psychological illness had always been treated by Selena before she brought her back to the capital. When he had seen her, Hattie had seemed no different from an ordinary person. Even he had not expected Hattie to show such a strong resistance to seeing a psychologist.
"Everyone, get out!" Leon ordered.
The people on the scene were stunned and looked at each other, but ultimately left.
After everyone had left, Leon knocked on the door. "Okay, they're all gone. Open the door."
The door was opened cautiously, and Hattie peeked through the crack to make sure there was no one else before she let Leon in. Once Leon was inside, she immediately locked the door.
Leon looked at the messy room and the girl with red eyes, and his brow furrowed even tighter.
Finally, he sighed and reached out to pat her head. "I've investigated the psychologists from earlier before. They're all famous in the capital."
In other words, Daphne really did send them to treat her.
With Hattie by his side, her family didn't dare harm her in front of him.
Hattie turned her head away. "I only trust the doctors Selena found for me! I don't want to see any other doctors!"
Leon paused and looked at her with a meaningful expression. "But from what I know, it seems like Selena doesn't intend to treat you..."
Hattie trembled at the words and immediately turned around to look at him with a wary expression on her face, eyes wide open.
Leon's eyes darkened for a moment, but after a while, he sighed and softened his voice, "Alright, if you don't want to receive treatment, then you don't have to."
At the very least, he couldn't force her to do something she didn't want to do, especially when she was resisting so strongly.
However, Hattie's expression did not relax at all. She spoke in a tense voice, sounding scared, "Brother, do you think she'll bring a group of people to take me to the mental hospital tonight?"
"Hattie..."
"She will! As long as those people tell her that mental illness is the same as being crazy, she will immediately bring many people to send me to the mental hospital..."
"Hattie."
