Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 295

"Why did she come back? Why? Why didn't she just die? Miranda, what gives you the right to take everything from me? Don't send me away, don't send me away. Why do you treat me like this when I'm also your daughter!!! Ahhhhh!!!"

Miranda listened to Arabella's breakdown, a slight smirk playing on her lips. The moment she saw Arabella, she knew she was faking insanity.

After all, insanity could be a way to escape legal punishment. So, she'd make sure Arabella truly lost her mind.

But not just any kind of madness—a relentless nightmare that would haunt her whether she was asleep or awake. She'd be fully aware of her suffering. Yet, the doctors would find nothing wrong with her mentally.

So, she'd still face the law. Even if she went mad, it would be behind bars. That was where she belonged.

Everything Miranda had endured, whether it was relevant to the Zade family or prison, Arabella should experience it all.

“Are we done here?”

A police officer came to escort Miranda.

“All done,” Miranda replied with a smile. “Thank you.”

The officer glanced towards the room as he heard the commotion from inside. “She seems mentally unstable. She didn’t harm you, did she?”

Miranda chuckled. “With a glass wall between us, there’s not much she could do. But...”

She paused slightly. “She seemed perfectly sane while talking to me. I've heard people often pretend to be mentally ill to escape the law, so...”

“Don’t worry. We’ll thoroughly investigate this. If she truly has mental issues, we’ll send her to a specialized facility. The law now states that those with mental illnesses should be transferred to a prison hospital. Honestly, it's no different from a regular prison; the guards are just medical staff. They’ll still lose all freedom there.”

Miranda nodded. “The law's keeping up with the times.”

The officer gave a smile. “I heard it was proposed during a Congress of Nations session by a military official, and it passed with ninety percent approval. It just went into effect this year.”

The mention of the military brought Elian's face to Miranda’s mind. Though the proposal was indeed good, she didn’t want Arabella getting any treatment in a prison hospital.

Her words shattered their hopes instantly.

“I’m just here to check, don’t get any ideas.”

Her gaze shifted from Alden and Grace to their four sons. None of them retained their former grandeur; they were all gaunt. But even so, the four brothers still showed traces of their handsome features.

The Hawke family certainly had good genes to pass down. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have produced Miranda’s beauty.

Dorian, who had been silently observing her until then, spoke up in a low voice, “I’ve done what I promised you. I’ve avenged Sunny as well.”

Alistair, Orion, and Lysander each displayed different emotions, but none said a word. They knew what their eldest brother had done. Though they weren’t the masterminds, they were accomplices.

Miranda raised an eyebrow. “And? Did you really think I would forgive you?”
