"It's not by mail." Henry shook his head, "She just said for me to put the medicine in one place and that would be it, my guess would be that after I put it there, either she'd go get it herself or send someone else to get it, but one thing I can say for sure is that she's in J City right now, I checked the number she called me from, it's J City."
Stanley was not the least bit surprised by what he said.
Because he had expected that Ivy might come back.
She and Ivan were together, and since Ivan had returned, how could Ivy not come back?
"But it surprises me that you're telling me this, don't you love her so much? How could you think of exposing her whereabouts?" Stanley looked at Henry with a sneer in his cold indifference.
Henry let out a bitter laugh, "I regret my actions in letting Ivy go, do you believe me?"
Stanley didn't say anything.
Henry could see that Stanley didn't believe him.
It was true that he had let Ivy go, knowing full well that she was antisocial, so how could Stanley believe that?
"But I'm telling the truth, I really regret it, when I let Ivy go, I didn't know that Ivy had killed your parents, I only knew that Ivy had done it to Violet twice, but she failed. I thought Ivy would really change when she got out, but I didn't think that she would even do it to Calvin and Arya." Henry said in pain as he took off his glasses and covered his face.
All this time, he had been feeling very guilty and remorseful, and wanted very much to apologize to Violet and the two children in person.
But he couldn't see them, and he didn't have the chance, so he kept the guilt and remorse inside him, and over time, his mental state became increasingly tight, and for the past two or three months, the hospital even banned him from the operating table outright.
So he really wanted to do something to make up for his mistake, and most importantly, he didn't want Ivy to wander any further, much less continue to be wrong.
"Do you think Ivy just went after my wife and children and my parents?" Stanley suddenly interrupted Henry's thoughts coldly.
Henry froze, "She ...... What do you mean, she went after the others?"
"And her parents." Stanley slowly spat out.
Those words, though spoken softly, fell on Henry's ears, but they were like heavy hammers, pounding his eardrums and heart.
For a long time, Henry moved his lips to find his voice, "You said ...... Ivy’s parents’ deaths are related to Ivy?"
"According to my investigation, there's a good chance that her parents's death was orchestrated by her." Stanley's words irritated Henry again.
Plotting in person could be more chilling than the ones related.
Because being related just means that one person's death may have been caused indirectly or unintentionally by another person.
But with first-hand planning, that would really be intentional murder.
Henry only felt cold all over, and his cute face was pale and bloodless at the moment, "How is this possible ......"
He shook his head, not wanting to believe that fact, "Those are Ivy's real parents, how could she ......"
"Why couldn't she, what couldn't a wicked child without any feelings do? Did my parents treat her badly? How did she return the favor?" Stanley questioned him coldly.
Henry's mouth open, unable to speak.
Did Stanley's parents treat Ivy badly?
No, no.
Almost as good as her parents to her, he saw all of this in his eyes.
But Ivy still made a move against Stanley's parents, and was able to unmercifully make a move against her righteous parents who treated her as their own daughter.
"How did this happen ......" Henry took two big, battered steps back, his body wobbling and nearly falling on his butt to the ground.
