After that, Catherine Batton gave Stanley Batton a call on the phone. However, his phone was switched off.
Catherine hung up right away and decided she would call him again later.

Meanwhile, in the municipal hospital, Mary Sullivan was lying on her bed, looking pleased as she pictured Catherine being beaten up by a group of people in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the more relieved she felt.
Mary had no idea why people like Catherine could be brave enough to mess with her.
After snorting coldly, she quickly picked up her phone as she waited for her henchmen to send her pictures of Catherine being beaten up.
Right then, Bailey Ronson pushed through the door with containers of food.
When Bailey saw Mary, she let out a long, helpless sigh before sitting by Mary’s bed with a pained look on her face. “I’ve asked the doctors. You’ll be able to leave the hospital in three days. Your father has already forgiven you after I kept trying to convince him.”
Mary appeared pleasantly surprised. “Is that true? Has Father truly forgiven me?”
“Yeah…” Bailey nodded.
Mary was instantly overjoyed. “That’s great.”
Right after she finished speaking, somebody pushed the door open.
Quickly, three police officers walked in, and the leader directly stood next to Mary’s bed. “Are you Mary Sullivan?”
“Yes, I am…” Mary nodded.
“You’re involved in a case of hired assault, and you need to return to the police station with us for further investigations,” the leader said.
