Chapter 503 Get Yourself a Psychiatrist
"Dad! I drank with those shareholders until midnight yesterday. You should know that. And I was woken up early this morning. I'm so annoyed!”
Listening to his son's complaints, Martin's eyebrows knitted deeper. He turned his head and saw the maid running over with the spare key. He shouted coldly, "Hurry up! Give me the key!"
The maid ran up and handed over the key. As soon as he got the spare key, Martin directly opened the door without saying any words. He pushed the door open fiercely and walked in.
The room was a mess. Jeanne dressed in a white pajama dress, with her long hair loose and a haggard face. She was standing in the middle of the room, and looked a little frightening.
Seeing Jeanne like this, Martin felt even more furious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Jeanne, what are you doing?" He felt that the Kelly family had been kind enough, to her. When she had divorced August, he even went to seek justice for her, regardless of the Kelly family's reputation and interests. However, she just took it for grant!
At this moment, Jeanne asked in a dumb voice, "Dad, where is August? I don't believe he's dead! I don't believe it at all!" As soon as he heard her mention August, Marin's expression instantly changed. He was silent for a moment then said in a cold voice, "It's all on the news. What do you have to question? People can't come back from the dead. You've attended his funeral. What the hell do you want?"
Jeanne's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she said hysterically, "No way! August wouldn't die like this!"
Although she had already divorced August, that man had always been her teenage fantasy. He was the man who won her heart. He was a presence she could not easily forget or erase from her heart. So she absolutely did not believe that August had died just like that.
Suddenly, Jeanne thought of something, hurriedly walked forward and held Martin's arm, begging, "Dad! Tell me the truth. Does Bishop hide August! You and Bishop are so close. He must have told you everything, right?"
At that, Martin's face became gloomy. His eyebrows were knitted tightly and he fiercely shook off her hand, "What are you talking about? Bishop and I are just business partners. How come he tells me everything?"
As soon as Jeanne heard this, she immediately retorted, raising her voice, "Dad, why won't you admit it? Now it's rumored outside that you and brother are on Bishop's side. If it wasn't for you, Bishop wouldn't have been able to take over the whole Lion Group so easily!"
With a clear sound all of a sudden, Jeanne's cheek received a hard slap. Her head was hit sideways, and the whole person froze in place. She did not come back to her senses for a long time.
Next to her, Merlin was also shocked. He knew very well that Martin had little patience and trust for Jeanne, but Martin had never hit her before.
"Dad, you slapped me!" Jeanne turned back in shock, "Did I say something wrong? Do you think that no one else knows about the things you and Merlin did?"
She was irritated and angry, with anger surging to her brain. She spoke without thinking, staring at Martin and Merlin in front of her with wide eyes, and continued, "If you hadn't helped Bishop secretly, how could August have disappeared? If you did not help Bishop, with our Kelly's ability, how could we easily get those big orders? You didn't even consider my feelings. You do anything just for the sake of your own interests!"
Hearing this, Martin gasped for breath, his hand hanging at his side trembled slightly. He was suppressing the anger that he wanted to slap her again.
Anger rolled in his eyes and he said in a fierce voice, "You black sheep! I'm doing this for our Kelly
family. What about you? You know nothing but romance, and you can't even see that he was not
interested in you at all. Shame on you! You're just a disgrace to our family!"
He said it in a fit of pique, and did not consider the weight of the words. He did not realize that it was too mean after finishing speaking, while Merlin stood aside had been pale, reaching out to try to stop him, "Dad, stop..."
But it was already too late. Jeanne took two steps back and looked at Martin in shock, as if she didn't expect such vicious words to come out of her own father's mouth.
The room was in silence for a moment, and then, Jeanne suddenly turned around, grabbed a fragment of the vase scattered. on the floor, and directly put the sharp edge against her neck. She didn't think much about it, but just stabbed hard into it,
and immediately, there was blood coming out.
She got a sad look and said, "Since August is already gone, then I'll go with him!" With that, her hand holding the fragment stabbed inward even harder.
Suddenly, Merlin stepped forward, flicked her hand away and said loudly, "Dad! You're gonna watch her kill herself?!"
Martin was out of his mind. He turned to the maids who were already dumbfounded and ordered in a cold voice, "Go tie her up! No one will let her out without my orders!"
The maids next to her nodded repeatedly, and went forward to help Merlin subdue Jeanne, and then tied her to the bed. The bedroom slowly regained its peace after a long time of tossing. Martin came downstairs in anger, his face all blue.
Merlin followed along, seemingly pondering something. After a moment, he looked up at Martin and said softly, "Dad, when Mom comes back, what do we say?"
Although Martin treated Jeanne not very well, and even didn't have little affection for her, she was his own daughter, plus Mrs. Kelly had some preference for her. They just tied her up like an animal, and when Mrs. Kelly comes back, she would definitely be mad at them.
Martin thought for a moment and said coldly, "What can I say? The interests of our family must come first. What are those childish feelings of Jeanne?"
"But it's hard to explain it to Mom..." Merlin said embarrassedly. After a while, he suddenly thought of something, "Right, Dad, we can say Jeanne has something wrong here.” With that, he pointed to his head, then said, "And she had recently been suicidal, so I thought there was something really wrong with her.”
Martin kept silent for a moment, then nodded, expressing approval, “You're right, so, you go get a psychiatrist. I'll take care of your mom.”
When Merlin heard this, he immediately nodded his head. Martin was also relieved a little. With this reason, from now on, he could rightfully control Jeanne, but also could save a lot of trouble. After all, she had always been outspoken, regardless of the consequences. If she should let out some private things about her family on some important occasion, he would be so done!
After thinking about it for a long time, he weighted the pros and cons, and then was somewhat satisfied with this idea of Merlin. He raised his eyes and looked around. When he saw Merlin who was standing on the balcony on the phone, without hesitation, he stepped over.
He walked up and asked, “Merlin, are you on the phone with the psychiatrist?”
When Merlin heard this, the hand holding the phone gave a slight shake and he turned towards Martin, “No... It's the call from Mr. Adams.”
When Merlin was speaking, the voice of Bishop at the other end suddenly came over, "Psychiatrist? Why do you want a psychiatrist?”
