Chapter 1602
Chapter 1602 "Harry has made mistakes. I won't cover for him..." Old Madam Atherton paused and added euphemistically, "He's my only son and Edwin's father. If he is imprisoned and the news is spread, it will bring disgrace on the whole Atherton family. With the status of the Atherton family, the scandal may even cause volatility in the stock market. Do you understand?"
Joanne felt disappointed. 'As soon as I saw Old Madam Atherton, I should have realized that she would defend her son.'
"So what?"
Old Madam Atherton said resignedly, "So I will order a bed for him in Western Hill Sanatorium and proclaim that he is seriously ill and needs recuperation. He won't be allowed to leave there, and no one will be allowed to visit him. He will spend the rest of his life there."
Joanne fell into a trance. She thought Old Madam Atherton came here to defend Harry.
Joanne had heard about Western Hill Sanatorium. It was in a remote suburb of Sapphire City.
Its location was bad. It was cold in winter and hot in summer. What was worse, there were no good resources and medical workers. Not long ago, it was reported that the nursing workers abused patients there.
Although being in the sanatorium would be freer for Harry than in prison, in Old Madam Atherton's opinion, there wouldn't be a big difference.
"Mom! What are you talking about?" Harry panicked. No matter how sorry he felt for Tail, he was reluctant to be placed under house arrest.
"Don't you come here to protect me? I won't go to the sanatorium! I'm looking forward to playing with my granddaughter! Cat, please help me persuade your grandmother..."
"Uncle Harry, you have made mistakes. Of course, you need to receive punishment. Don't you say that you have realized that you're wrong? You will just be sent to the sanatorium. The punishment is light enough. I know there is a mental hospital in Western Hill. Many daughters-in-law have sent unreasonable old men there. After one or two years, the old men will be obedient."
Harry widened his eyes and suspected that he had misheard Catelyn. He stood up from the ground and pointed at
Catelyn angrily.
