Chapter 241 Stop Watching It, Ana
In the subsequent two days, it was torturous for Margaret.
It was completely different from the half-month she spent in the detention center. She was bullied by others every day, and she was covered in bruises everywhere except her face. No matter how she begged for help, the guards would only come to take a look and warn those who bullied her. After that, they’d leave as if nothing had happened.
Margaret had been brought up in luxury and couldn’t bear the harshness of her current situation. She couldn’t eat or sleep well. She had to be careful all the time, afraid of being bullied and beaten. Even at night, she couldn’t sleep soundly and was almost driven to madness.
When Quincy learned about Margaret’s situation, she immediately went to Waylon. Waylon was angry, the thought of Margaret being bullied inside still made him feel furious. Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to cause trouble inside.
At first, Waylon planned to hire a lawyer, hoping to bail Margaret out of there first. However, Harry told him not to do anything for the time being, so he had been wailing patiently these days.
After all the waiting, he didn’t expect things would end up like this.
Waylon was already very dissatisfied with Harry. Now, he only felt that Harry was still thinking about Yuliana, so he chose to torture his own younger sister.

Quincy no longer cared about anything and was not afraid of getting beaten up. She was determined to do whatever it took to save Margaret.
Waylon was annoyed and angry because of these things. After careful consideration, he arranged for a lawyer to accompany Quincy to the detention center.
The moment Margaret saw Quincy, she burst into tears, and snot flowed out uncontrollably. She cried so hard that she was gasping for air as she recounted the bullying she had endured these past few days.
Seeing that, Quincy’s heart ached. “How could this happen? Does the law mean nothing to them? Why didn’t anyone stop them?”
Margaret shook his head and choked. “Why would anyone stop them? I think they did it on purpose. It must have been arranged by Yuliana. She wants me to die here!”
Hearing that, Quincy became even more worried. At that moment, she just wanted to get Margaret out immediately.
She took out a tissue to wipe Margaret’s tears and choked out, “Marge, don’t worry. I’ll take you out of this terrible place today. I’ve arranged for a lawyer to handle the procedures for you. We’ll be able to go home.
soon.”
The lawyer looked expressionless for a while on the side. He only spoke up when the emotions of the mother and daughter had eased a bit, “Ms. Ziegler, I have some questions to ask you. I hope you can tell me everything without reservation.”
Margaret was still sobbing. Hearing the lawyer’s words, she froze for a moment and turned to look at Quincy.
Quincy nodded. “He’s the lawyer your dad hired for you. Marge, your dad won’t harm you.”
After hesitating for two seconds, Margaret pursed her lips and said, “Ask away.”
She was willing to do anything as long as she could get out of this hellhole.
Rowan had been born for nearly five days, and Yuliana still hadn’t been able to see her child. She only got to watch a short recorded video clip of him.
Rowan’s small body lay in an incubator, with a tube in his mouth and gauze covering his eyes. Various monitoring instruments were attached to his body, and his tiny hands and feet struggled inside the incubator.
At that moment, Yuliana’s tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably, and her heart ached terribly.
In the past, no matter how difficult things were, she could control her emotions well. Even if she couldn’t control herself for a while, she could quickly recover. However, seeing Rowan struggling in the incubator in the video, she instantly broke down.
“Stop watching it, Ana.” Seeing how distressed she was, Christopher couldn’t bear to let her continue watching and took the phone away from her.
Yuliana quickly wiped away her tears. She looked at Christopher with her teary eyes. “I haven’t finished watching it yet. Give it to me.”
The duration of the video was around two minutes. It was recorded by Christopher in the surveillance room of the hospital. Rowan’s condition wasn’t very good in the past two days, and the hospital didn’t allow visitation, but Yuliana really wanted to see him. Thus, Christopher went to the surveillance room to record the video.
When Christopher saw the footage of Rowan in the incubator from the surveillance room, his heart was in pain too. However, he had seen the child twice before, so he was somewhat mentally prepared and
not as distressed as Yuliana.
Christopher put the phone aside and handed her two tissues to wipe her tears. “You promised me just now that you wouldn’t cry.”
Yuliana was stunned. She looked at Christopher and didn’t say anything, but she couldn’t stop crying. Her gaze was heart-wrenching.
Their gazes met for a moment. In the end, Christopher still took the phone over and paused the video. Looking at her earnest eyes, his heart suddenly tightened, and he felt a little upset.
A newborn baby who was only a few days old had taken away all of Yuliana’s emotions.
He paused for a moment before he said, “If you keep crying, I’ll delete the video, and I won’t go to the surveillance room to record it anymore.”
Yuliana pursed her lips and nodded. “Okay.”
Christopher handed the phone to her.
Yuliana held back her tears and watched the video until the end. She felt like her heart was being torn apart by a blunt knife. It was a feeling that only a mother could understand.
