Chapter 1821 Paige Had Gone Insane
"There's no way I'll leave without getting to the bottom of it. Madam, you only need to tell me whether
this matter has anything to do with you."
Paige shot daggers at Raeleigh. "Who died and left you in charge?"
Raeleigh answered, "I was the victim in that fire and many people in the orphanage had been
murdered for nothing."
Paige could not retain her composure. She stood up and pointed her finger at Raeleigh. "Get out of
here right now. Get lost."
Hudson focused his eyes on Marrisa. "Did you really do it?"
Paige looked back at him slowly as he asked, "Why did you do it?"
Trembling, she looked at Hudson. "Did I have a choice? At that time, the Osteen family had been
looking for her everywhere. If they found her, they would get to us, then everything our family had
achieved would go up in smoke. I didn't mean to take the child away. I was also a victim. What should I
do?"
Paige sobbed it out while Hudson's face turned pale. He asked her, "Did you decide to set that fire on
your own, or did the Doyle family deliberately incite you to do it?"
"The Doyle family didn't ask me to set the fire, but they told me that the child was still alive, asking me
why I sent the child to the orphanage. Back then, I was beguiled by them into believing that they had
goodwill, so I ordered someone to set the fire. I didn't mean it. Do you understand?"
"Paige." It had been many years since Hudson last called her in such a way, which made her weepy.
Hudson said, "You've known it since forever that Raeleigh was the child who escaped from that deadly
fire?"
"Yes, I've long known it."
"Therefore, you find fault with everything she does because you don't want her to marry into our
family?"
"How am I supposed to let her marry into our family? It was me who had taken her away and lost her.
She wound up in an orphanage. After I plotted the fire, she didn't die, but so many other people were
killed. Do you think it was easy for me to handle the guilt? Everything should have come to an end, but
she was alive and intended to marry into our family. If so, she would show herself in front of me all day
long. How could I tolerate that?"
"You couldn't tolerate it, huh? What about those people who had died? What about the Osteen family?
Could they put up with it?" Hudson got up and questioned Paige loudly. Paige shook her head and sat
down on the sofa.
At this moment, Calvin and Belle entered the living room. They waved their hands and gestured to the
servants to leave. The situation had already gone out of control. No one had foreseen that things would
go on in such a way.
"Raeleigh."
Jepherson stood behind his parents. Raeleigh looked back at him and said, "I'm here to verify if your
grandmother was the one behind that horrendous fire. I don't intend to do anything else. It's time to put
the lid on this matter.
I'm leaving. Please excuse me."
Raeleigh turned around to leave. Lenold, who stood outside, cleared his throat to remind her. He felt
disinclined to pass Austin's message by himself as he didn't want to offend anyone.
Raeleigh recalled the message. She turned around and gazed at Paige, "I've a message for you. I've
already acknowledged and regarded Austin as my elder brother for several years. Before I came here,
he asked me to tell you that he won't let me marry into the Harvey family in your lifetime, so don't you
worry in the future. Also, I wish you a long life."
With that, Raeleigh turned and went outside. When she passed by the door, Jepherson called her,
"Raeleigh."
Raeleigh stopped in her tracks. "You only have to focus on treating your illness and nursing yourself
back to health. Henceforth, we're even. I'm going to Green House now. I'll bring Shaney over here for
you to have a look."
After Raeleigh finished her words, she left, leaving Jepherson standing by the door and staring blankly
at her back.
Lenold also stopped and said, "Take good care of yourself. Bye."
After Raeleigh left, Jepherson swept his eyes to Paige. Now that the truth had come to light, there was
nothing left to say.
Jepherson walked back on his own and Belle followed behind him. The entire Harvey family had been
surrounded by a sense of gloominess. Belle felt so impotent at the moment. It never occurred to her
that Paige would do such a thing. She doubted if Paige was senile since she was still young more than
a decade ago.
Returning home, Jepherson said that he wanted to have some food. In response to this, Belle went to
prepare a meal for him in a trice. After having his meal and getting the injection, Jepherson stopped
talking and laid down on the bed.
As the shocking incident had been revealed, a pouring rain came just in time, covering the whole
Harvey family. This day, lifelessness and glumness reigned over the Harvey family.
At night, the rain got heavier. However, Hudson ordered the chauffeur to wait with the car in the yard.
Then, he came out of the house with his luggage.
Behind him was Paige, who was holding an umbrella. Someone was looking after her, but she
appeared to be downcast.
Calvin knitted his brow slightly. After all, she was his mother. No matter what unpardonable
wrongdoings she had done, Calvin would not give up on her.
"Isn't going back now-"
"It's okay. Don't worry about us."
In the end, Hudson still took Marisa away. It was late at night and raining cats and dogs. Getting into
the car, Hudson instructed the chauffeur to drive away.
The roads in Capital City were rather flat and everything was fine. But on the way, the rain was so
heavy that it was terrifying. Coupled with the stuffy atmosphere in the car, Paige began to feel
uncomfortable. She turned and tossed about in the car, breaking out in a sweat.
At first, Hudson did not pay attention to it. Later, he could not bear seeing her suffer. Hence he inquired
about what was wrong with her. Paige told him that she was feeling hot and she screamed. She said
there was someone behind Hudson. She screamed and screamed while holding her head.
She had been talking nonsense all along the way. Arriving at A City, Hudson took her to the hospital,
where the diagnosis showed that she had gone insane.
The instruments were reliable and could tell if someone had lost their mind effectively.
Hudson hoped that Paige was pretending, but his hope dashed when he got her medical report. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Sitting down, he started to daydream and close his eyes slowly.
Paige ran around in the room, asking those things not to come near her.
By the time Calvin and his wife came, it was already three days later. Jepherson, who had been
recuperating quite well over the past few days, was also with them. Seeing Paige, all of them were
astounded.
Belle looked lugubrious. "How could it be so sudden?"
"The results suggest that she's gone mad, but I've this hunch that this may be a retribution. So many
people died in that fire, which one of them will be willing to let your mother off?"
Hudson stood up and entered the room while Paige had been slumping in the corner. She did not get
up. It took him a long time to lift her up and bring her out.
"I'll take your mom to see other doctors. Just leave it to me and stay out of this."
"What kind of other doctors?" After Hudson left, Belle went to ask Calvin, who then replied, "Like witch
doctors or shamans."
Belle frowned. "Such superstitious beliefs."
"Leave it to Dad. He must have a plan."
It was another night with torrential rain. Raeleigh stood in the room and gazed at the heavy rain
outside. At the same time, she was looking at the two people having fun on the bed too.
Santiago held Shaney in his arms, telling stories. Shaney disliked the stories told by others, but she
liked the ones Santiago told her. What could Raeleigh do?
Raeleigh watched for a short time and turned back to lie down on the bed. But she could not fall asleep
anymore after she woke up with a jolt in the light of a nightmare.
