Chapter 288

Isabella immediately thought of Violet.

She had always suspected that Violet was Bianca, but she had no evidence to prove it, so she had to give up.

But now was a good opportunity.

Her words instantly caught the attention of her two uncles.

Holden wondered, "Isabella, what do you mean by Bianca being in Evergreen City? Wasn't she missing?"

"Uncle Holden, you should have some impression of that Violet around Michael. From the moment she appeared, she has been extremely passionate about Michael, insisting on him and no one else."

"Moreover, from my observations, some of Violet's small actions, her understanding and affection for Michael, show habits that only Bianca would have. So, I suspect she is Bianca."

"But these two don't look alike at all." Atticus pointed out the key point, "Bianca has only been missing for a few months. It's impossible for her to come back as a completely different person. Even if she had plastic surgery, it would require a long recovery period."

Isabella hadn't been able to conclude this matter for the same reason.

"That's true. I was curious about that too. But Atticus, could there be some technology that allows a person to change their appearance temporarily without a long waiting period?"

"After all, there are many private medical research teams abroad that conduct various beauty experiments for the top wealthy people. We just haven't come into contact with them."

Isabella's words made her two uncles fall silent for a moment.

There were indeed many such experimental research institutes abroad, mostly funded by wealthy individuals, and no one knew exactly what they were researching.

"Instead of wasting time, why not listen to Isabella? What if Violet really is Bianca?"

Holden thought for a few seconds and made a decision.

"Alright, we don't have much time now. Trying is better than getting nothing."

Atticus agreed as well.

The three made up their minds, but the next step was a challenge.

It wasn't realistic to capture Violet. Even if they did, if Violet and Harper both denied being mother and daughter, it would be a dilemma.

At this moment, Atticus raised his eyebrows, "Parents always think about their children. Threats won't work, but what if we let her 'escape'?"

"Atticus, you mean let Harper leave here and follow her to find the person helping her."

Isabella agreed with this plan.

After all, Harper had been hiding in Glamour Oasis for so long, someone must be assisting her, and that person was the face-changed Bianca.

As long as they got her out, Harper would definitely find Bianca first.

By then, they would find both mother and daughter without much effort.

It had to be said, relying on Atticus, a military man, to come up with ideas was quick.

After discussing the plan, they began to implement it.

The three stood up simultaneously. Atticus casually called over a bodyguard, said a few words to him, and the bodyguard nodded and left.

In the interrogation room, Harper anxiously waited for the Wilson Family members to appear again.

Given her understanding of the Wilson Family, they wouldn't let her go easily after capturing her this time.

She was prepared for passive torture.

But after waiting for a long time, Atticus didn't return. Instead, two bodyguards in black came in, lifted her up, and took her to a detention room.

Harper was shocked.

Looking at herself without a scratch, she couldn't believe it.

Did they just leave?

They just came to threaten her a few times, and when they couldn't get answers, they really left.

At this moment, a deliberately lowered conversation came from outside the door.

Harper couldn't hear clearly, instinctively felt it was related to her, and went to the door to eavesdrop.

"By the way, what did Mr. Wilson urgently send someone out to get? I only heard it was some medicine, and it had to be quick!"

"You don't know? I heard that medicine was brought back by Mr. Wilson from abroad. It's colorless and tasteless but can stimulate the brain. After drinking it, the person will say whatever you ask, more effective than any torture."

"Really? Is it that good? I've never heard of it."

"It's a new weapon developed abroad, specifically for prisoners and rebels on the battlefield. You know Mr. Wilson is a military man. Torture doesn't work, but getting some 'special medicine' is easy."

"But there's one thing, that stuff damages the brain severely. Just one dose can harm the brain nerves. I heard someone abroad tried three doses, and the person was ruined, unable to control their bodily functions."

Hearing this, Harper's legs went weak.

But the conversation outside continued, and she had to force herself not to think about the consequences of the medicine on her.

"Wow, that's harsh. I wonder who is so unlucky. It wouldn't be the woman we just locked up, would it?"

"Who else? Mr. Wilson doesn't like wasting time. If he can't get her to talk, he'll use effective means."

"I heard he asked for half a bottle, using the woman inside as a test subject to see the human body's maximum tolerance."

The woman inside!

Harper swallowed hard, her face pale as paper, her body trembling uncontrollably.

So Atticus wasn't letting her go but using her as a test subject for the medicine.

But she hadn't forgotten how sensitive Atticus's position was. As a politician in a high position, would he dare to take the risk of torturing her?

Before Harper could analyze the pros and cons, the conversation outside continued.

"Isn't Mr. Wilson afraid of the consequences if she dies? His position is important, and any impact would be significant."

This was exactly what Harper wanted to know.

Then someone snorted indifferently, "Do you think Mr. Wilson's years of experience are a joke? That medicine leaves no trace in the body. Besides, the woman inside is already mentally unstable. If she suddenly goes crazy, they can just lock her in a mental hospital. Who would know?"

"Even if someone investigates, she has no injuries. They can just say she was stimulated and became like this. Who would really go against the Wilson Family?"

"That's true. Mr. Wilson's move is brilliant. Silently dealing with her, even if she dies, no one will find out."

The voices outside gradually faded, and Harper could no longer support herself, collapsing to the ground.

The Wilson Family really wanted her dead.

To avenge the short-lived Grace, they dared to test the medicine on her.

No way!

She couldn't wait any longer. If she accidentally told the truth, she would be doomed.

She had to escape from here.
