Chapter 1045

Outside the asylum.

In the black Masevati, Nellie crossed her arms over her chest and curled up in a corner of the car in
anger. “Nigel, how could you? I didn’t even have much time to talk to Mommy! “

Not far away from her, Nigel had his laptop open on his lap, his short fingers tapping away at the
keyboard as if he could not hear her at all.

Nellie felt even worse now. She snatched Nigel’s laptop out of his lap. “Stop playing! Didn’t you see what
Mommy looked like just now! “

The little girl bit her lip, aggrieved tears swimming in her eyes. “Daddy lied! Mommy is suffering here, I
can tell! Nigel, you’re a bad guy too! You stopped me from spending more time with Mommy! “

She came here happily today, thinking that Mommy was really just sick. But after she arrived, she
realized this was not a hospital at all, it was more like a prison that kept her Mommy locked up!

Seeing his sister’s reaction, Nigel sighed faintly. He took his laptop out of her hands and showed his
sister the information displayed on the screen. “I looked into it. Mommy was locked up here because a
group of internationally renowned doctors conducted a psychiatric assessment on Mommy and she was
diagnosed with mental illness. That means, Mr. Lynch only sent Mommy here because he truly believes
that she is mentally ill. And what’s interesting is that Mr. Robert Jenson not only diagnosed Mommy with
mental illness, he also diagnosed Ms. Fiona Blake to be critically ill.”

Nellie’s eyes widened instantly. ”Both reports are fake?”

”Most probably.” Nige lowered his head and continued tapping away at the keyboard, his eyebrows
furrowed as he spoke, ”Don’ t forget our goal in coining here today. We’re not here to bond with Mommy,
we’re here to confirm her location and the things she experienced.”



The little guy handed a pen and a piece of paper to Nellie. ”You have a good memory, almost perfect and
you’re good at drawing. Did you take a good look at the structure of the building and the directions? ”

Seeing her brother’s serious expression, Nellie wiped at her tears and nodded. ”I remember.”

The moment she wanted to put pen to paper, Nigel stopped her. ”Just draw a rough sketch, in case
Joshua becomes suspicious.”

With that, he took a deep breath and said, ”I contacted Aunt Bonnie and our cousin Christian. I know
what happened now. Mommy didn’t tell us about a lot of things, she didn’t want us to worry. ”

Finally, Nigel drew up a photo from one of the files on his computer. ”This old lady is Janice Yale. We
have to get in touch with her by today. She has quite a good impression of Mommy, she might provide us
with a breakthrough.”

Nellie memorized the woman’s face and was about to say something when the sound of footsteps was

heard outside. The two children exchanged meaningful glances. Nellie returned to her spot next to the
door and pretended to doodle on the paper in anger. Nigel on the other hand continued tapping away at
the keyboard quietly.

A tired Joshua opened the door and got into the car. ” Lucas, head home.”

“Yes, sir.” Lucas, who had been standing outside waiting for Joshua, got into the car.

The car engine started.

Nellie sat by the window, watching as the asylum drifted further and further away behind her, her
eyebrows furrowing slightly. “Daddy, what took you so long, were you exchanging secrets with Mommy
just now?“



His confrontation with Luna exhausted him both mentally and physically. He sighed faintly and pulled the
little girl into his arms. “Yeah. I was encouraging her to cooperate with the doctors, so she can be
discharged as soon as possible and travel the world with you.“ Sitting in her father’s arms, Nellie could
not help but pout. “I don’t want to travel the world.“
