Starting with A Divorce Chapter 551

Chapter 551 Being Not Cold-hearted Enough

“Do you really think of me as your daughter? Or am I just a tool that you can use?” Kaitlin said with tearful eyes.

Mrs. Baldry was moved by her words, but when she heard the child babbling, she had to harden her heart and said, ’Kaitlin, what makes you think so? Don’t you know how much I love you? I’ve never let you suffer any grievances since you were a child. This is the only time. It would be best if you protected him this time. You are his aunt, after all.”

Kaitlin was disappointed. Actually, Mrs. Baldry’s answer was exactly the same as she had imagined.

She continued in a trembling voice, ‘Would you feel sorry for me if I told you that I didn’t live a good life in the mental hospital at all?”

Mrs. Baldry took Kaitlin by her arm with a frown and said, “You silly girl, you’re from the Baldry family. Your brother had told them to take good care of you before you went there. How could they treat you badly?”

Kaitlin held back her trembling shoulders and shook off her hand violently. “Then why did I end up being injured all over?”

She rolled up her sleeves. She had never allowed anyone to see the scars in the past few days.

But now she rolled up her sleeves to show them to Mrs. Baldry.

On her arms were scars caused by whipping or scratching.

Mrs. Baldry was shocked. She cared about Kaitlin as much as the child. She was her daughter, after all.

Holding on to her arm, Mrs. Baldry felt sorry for her. “What… what’s going on?”

Kaitlin sighed, “I was beaten in the hospital by the doctors and nurses. They often beat and scolded us, not even treating us patients as human beings. And if we fought back, we’d be forced to wear the constricted outfit. Do you know what it is? It’s a set of clothes that tie our hands and feet up, and then we could only eat and shit on the bed. It made me feel like I was not a person. I said once that I was wronged, but I ended up being tied up for a whole week. Do you know what it feels like? It’s like I’m abandoned by the whole world. Mom, when confined in the outfit, I felt like I’ve never known who you really are.”

Mrs. Baldry lowered her head with a trace of guilt in her eyes. “I know how you feel.”

“No! You’ll never know! When I was suffering, you played cards or cared for your pregnant daughter-in-law! All you think about is your grandson!” sneered Kaitlin.

She could never forgive Mrs. Baldry as well as Kaliyah.
