Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 573

Because of this, the official Facebook pages of the Bartham City Police Bureau and Bartham City Court were constantly tagged in the comments.

Everyone was demanding an explanation and insisting that they shouldn't let Lana go so easily just because she was mentally ill.

Under pressure from public opinion, the Bartham City Court released a statement expressing their intent to handle the case according to the law and asked everyone to remain calm.

"Mr. Cunningham called and told me that the judge is considering sending Lana to the Bartham Mental Asylum," Lewis said.

The Bartham Mental Asylum was the biggest psychiatric hospital in Bartham and one of the more strictly managed institutions. Many patients with severe mental illnesses were forcibly sent there for treatment and isolated from the outside world. Of course, opinions from the patients' family members would be taken into consideration as well.

"The current situation right now is that the court has to take urgent measures against Lana as pressure from the public is mounting. However, Lana's lawyer is difficult to deal with. If we send Lana to the mental asylum by force, the other party would just keep submitting appeals to bring her out again. This case would never be resolved. And there's also one more thing … Yvette contacted Mr. Cunningham. She is trying to use her identity as Larissa's biological mother to represent her and settle the suit with Lana," Lewis explained with a troubled expression on his face.

Gary felt his chest tighten with anger. He cursed, "Yvette, that wicked woman!"

Although he already knew that Larissa suffered inhumane treatment from the Seymour family, witnessing Yvette's cruelty toward her made his heart ache terribly, as if he was stabbed repeatedly by a knife.

"Tell Mr. Cunningham that we will never settle! If Lana isn't going to prison, she must be locked up in the mental asylum!" Gary declared firmly, his voice as cold as ice.

"Alright." Lewis nodded with understanding.

"How is Cosmic Entertainment doing recently?" Gary continued.
