Chapter 320 Summoning Her Back to Riverdon
“Dad, you may not be able to leave Riverdon now. The police in Riverdon are still investigating you, aren’t they?”
With this reminder from Fanny, George suddenly remembered why he had been staying home these days and became even gloomier.
“In that case, Fanny, you go to Northland. Find Angela and make her come back to Riverdon! As for Jonathan and Joseph, I will talk to them.”
This was the best plan George could come up with.
“Are you sure, Dad?” Fanny asked hesitantly, but her tears had stopped.
“Of course! Don’t worry. Angela doesn’t have support in Northland, but I know people there who can help when needed.” George reassured her.
Upon hearing this, Fanny brightened. She thought she could only rely on George to persuade her brothers to let her leave Riverdon, but she didn’t expect that he also knew people in the Northland.
So, when I arrive in Northland, Angela will be in for a surprise, won’t she?It turns out that playing the victim in front of George is effective, she thought.
Having achieved her goal, Fanny did not stay long in George’s room.
Before leaving, she continued her sentence in tears, “Dad, please talk to Jonathan and Joseph about this matter. Otherwise, they won’t feel at ease with me leaving home.”
George immediately accepted her request. Ever since he discovered that Linda had turned into what she was now, all because of Angela, he had been itching to get back at her. He felt a twinge of pain as he remembered how Linda had hurt him, although it had all happened in a chaotic and foolish circumstance.
After Fanny left, he could not resist visiting the hospital to find Linda. However, when he asked the nurse, he discovered that Linda was no longer there.
“Where did she go?” George asked loudly.
The nurse was startled by him and inexplicably looked at him. “She was sent to a mental hospital. She went crazy and had no family, so she could only be sent there.”
George felt heartbroken and asked which mental hospital it was, then went straight there.

When he arrived, George saw Linda. Linda was quietly curled up in the corner of the bed, looking harmless and pitiful.
He called out softly. “Linda,” but got no response. He took a bold step forward, but she still did not show any reaction.
The person behind George said, “She has been like this since she was brought in. No response. Just staring at things blankly.”
“Is there any possibility of her recovering? Has she shown no other reactions?” George asked.
The person shook his head and said, “I’m just a part–time worker at this hospital, so I’m not very familiar with her situation. You might want to ask the doctor.”
George said, “I am her family. Can I take her out of the hospital?”
The person replied, “Go ask the doctor. I am not sure, but it should be okay.”
George was slightly annoyed by his lack of information but did not throw a tantrum. “Thank you anyway. I’ll talk to her before leaving”
The person left without saying a word, leaving only George and Linda in the cramped room.
Linda had remained seated from the beginning as if she had not heard a word of George’s conversation with the other person.
George closed the door and walked towards Linda. “Linda?”
Linda did not react, so he reached out, pulled her up, and lifted her head.
George’s face contorted in pain as he attempted to push Linda away, but her vicious bite held firm. Bright red blood poured from the wound on his nose, flowing freely. At George’s screams, someone outside began knocking and banging on the door. Eventually, the door was unlocked with a key.
