Chapter 273 The Secret
When the warden of the women’s prison paid a special visit to Nancy, who was in solitary confinement, she was furious. The Smith family had instructed her to make Nancy suffer in prison, but they never said to kill her.
If the warden hadn’t shown up, Nancy might have died.
On the fifth day after Nancy was rushed to the hospital, she woke up in a state of complete mental breakdown.
She was desperate to meet someone from the Smith family, but Jasper wasn’t someone she could meet whenever she wanted.
Everyone simply regarded her as mentally ill.
Many people had seen reports about Nancy on television, but no one would believe what someone like her said.
They simply regarded her as a madwoman.
“Just do as you see fit!” said the superior.
Nancy was sent to a mental hospital and locked up for five days straight.
She was shackled to the head of the bed, forcibly injected with sedatives, and made to swallow medicine. She did not have a good time there at all.
When she encountered those male doctors. Nancy had to endure the feeling of being taken advantage of She endured all these humiliations alone.
From the initial struggles to the overwhelming hatred in the end, all these humiliations were brought upon by him.
She was brutally beaten and trampled by a group of people. The sharp blade left one wound after another on her b*dy, now healing and scabbing over. Every drop of blood she shed, she would never forget in this lifetime. One day, she would surely make these people pay.
I’ll make sure you regret treating me this way, Jasper!
Nancy’s efforts at struggling were all in vain. A nurse from the mental hospital was coming over to give her medication.
This time, she didn’t struggle or scream anymore. Instead, she quietly accepted everything.
Even if the doctors were being indecent toward her.
Nancy’s mobile phone was taken away. Other than a gambling-addicted father who constantly pestered her for money, she had no other relatives or friends. She wanted to leave, but she didn’t know who to turn to for help except for that person.
She knew he must have a way to help her.
As such, she needed to have a cell phone to connect with the outside world. Only then would she have a

glimmer of hope to leave this place.
At nightfall, in a pitch-black room, aside from the scent of disinfectant, there was a beam of light coming. from a window.
In the quiet hospital corridor, a figure quietly and slowly approached.
The sound of a chain being unlocked echoed in Nancy’s ward. The door creaked open slightly, and an ordinary-looking man stepped in. He had a greedy look in his eyes as he kept his gaze fixated on the person on the bed and reached his hand out toward her.
At this moment, Nancy also opened her eyes when she felt his hand, which had reached into her thin hospital gown and was fondling her breasts.
The man let out a satisfied grunt.
“Do you want to play?” Nancy asked all of a sudden, giving him quite the shock.
The man was preparing to make a hasty escape.
Listening to his voice, he didn’t sound like a madman at all, but rather somewhat normal.
Ronald Dunlap knew that molesting a female patient was a serious crime punishable by law, and it could also lead to the revocation of his medical license.
He saw that Nancy was sedated and fell unconscious, which was why he dared to make his move.
Ronald remained silent, about to run, when Nancy called out to him, “Don’t worry; I won’t tell anyone. I’ll do whatever you want as long as you let me go, okay?”
Bathed in the light of the corridor, Nancy listened as the man’s footsteps came to a halt. Undoubtedly, he must have been moved.
She continued, “The truth is, I was framed. That’s why I was sent to this mental hospital. If you lend me your phone, I’ll let you do whatever you want with me. If you’re uneasy and afraid that I’ll see your face, you can blindfold me. I won’t utter a word about this, and rest a*sured, I will be sure to reward you well after I leave this place.”
Ronald still didn’t dare to speak. This time, he mustered up the courage to return to the bedside, his hand trembling as he reached toward her chest.
Nancy let out an enticing sound, moaning softly as she said, “Keep going… Go a bit harder.”
The desire in the man’s eyes gradually intensified, his actions becoming more unrestrained.
Once the flames of desire were ignited, it would be hard to extinguish.
Nancy felt like a puppet being manipulated at will, enduring the foul odor from the man as he continued to take advantage of her.
The vacant, numb look in her eyes was fierce and ruthless.
Jasper, I won’t rest until I get my revenge on you!
Nearly an hour had pa*sed, the man’s movements ceased, and he contentedly disengaged himselt from Nancy.

After getting dressed, he even thoughtfully wiped her down.
Nancy was somewhat breathless as she said, “Don’t forget what you promised me.”
The man simply departed in silence.
By the next day, when Nancy woke up, the shackles on her hands had been removed.
The nurse said, “Your condition has been improving lately, so we’ll remove your shackles for now. However, if you have another episode and start shouting, we’ll have no choice but to take the same measures again.”
Nancy remained silent. She sat up, ma*saged her wrist, and accepted the medicine handed to her by the nurse. Without hesitation, she swallowed it in one gulp.
Once the nurse had left, Nancy retrieved a mobile phone from under her pillow and dialed a string of numbers, but the call didn’t go through.
About five minutes later, a call came in from a new virtual number.
“Have you been released from prison?”
With a gaze filled with hatred, Nancy stared intently at the wall, her hand clutching the bedsheets. Her fingernails dug into the palm of her hand through the sheets as she said, “I need your help to ruin this engagement! Once I’ve had my revenge, I promise to help you get half of the Smith family’s fortune.”
“Even your life was a gift from me. Don’t forget that you have nothing right now.”
“I do have something! I am the real Mrs. Smith! If it weren’t for her showing up out of nowhere, she couldn’t possibly take my place in his heart! All you need to do is save me and let me reclaim everything that belongs to me!” A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Nancy’s nearly insane eyes as she continued, “As long as I’m alive, he can forget about marrying any other woman!”
“Why should I trust your words? Even if I rescue you, you won’t benefit unless you have a foolproof plan!”
“Would you a*sist me if I persuade you and offer you the greatest advantage?”
“Of course!”
It appeared that Nancy had reached a decision. She continued slowly, “I have an email account that I frequently use in Atharia. I can provide you with the pa*sword. Inside, you can uncover all my secrets. Once you have read them, you will understand.”
Meanwhile, at Caerulus Corporation, Eric entered the foreign email address, but he did not input the pa*sword.
Instead, he hacked into the email directly.
He then accessed her inbox and began reading the emails that Nancy had sent and received over the past few years.
Of course, this included the secrets she had mentioned. Those pictures held far greater value than the information he had gathered from his investigation.
Five minutes quickly pa*sed.

“Well? What do you think? Will you believe me now?” Nancy urged him impatiently.
The corners of Eric’s thin l*ps slowly curled up. “Tonight at eleven, someone will come to take you away.”
“Okay!”
Nancy had entrusted him with her most significant secret. Although it was something she had never intended to reveal, she had no other way out of her predicament.
We had an agreement, Jasper!
