Chapter 1927
Penn paused slightly.
In his mind, the fact that Rosalynn was willing to expend resources and energy to find him for
Madeleine meant that Madeleine was extremely important
to her.
“Got it.” Penn didn’t ask why. “Remember ourst phone call? You promised to treat me to a meal when
you got back to H City.”
Rosalynn, “Sure thing, Dr. Lange. Just let me know when you’re free and I’ll set it up.”
“Alright.”
Before Penn could finish his sentence, he heard the sound of a door opening.
“I’ve gotta deal with something right now. We’ll catch upter.” Penn continued.
“Sure.”
And with that, the call ended.
Penn pocketed his phone and turned to face Faustina, who had just entered.
“So, Dr. Lange, how did it go?”
Originally, Madeleine’s treatment had been going well and Faustina had been quite happy about it..
But that very night, Faustina seemed to have aged twenty years, her hair had turned mostly white.
She’d never imagined that a slip of the tongue on her part would cause such a massive tragic.
When that kind hearted person she could always reach had called her the day before, she had no idea
about the horrifying events unfolding on the other end.
Only when her child at home saw news about Jeannie online and told her about it, did she realize what
had happened.
She immediately tried to call that kind–hearted person to apologize and exin, but she couldn’t get
through.
Now that Madeleine’s treatment was showing results, Faustina was terribly worried that her daughter’s
treatment would be halted because of this incident.
She spent the whole night unable to sleep, pping herself countless times.
After much thought, she had no choice but to seek Penn’s help.
“What happened between you guys?” Penn asked,
He wasn’t particrly interested in online gossip, so he had no idea what was currently a hot topic on
the inte.
“It really had nothing to do with us! I never thought Jeannie would have such ideas!” Faustina burst into
tears. “When I told her about it, she said I was being duped. Who’d have thought she’d turn right
around and take her daughter to that monastery!!”

From Faustina’s intermittent sobbing, Penn managed to piece together the whole story.
“So, because you didn’t keep your promise and told others about your daughter getting the treatment, it
led to a child who was about to be adopted being killed on the spot by a crazy person. And the person
who was about to adopt this unfortunate child is one of the kind–hearted people helping your
daughter?”
“That’s exactly it!”
“I see.” Penn nodded, his tone remained steady throughout, even after hearing such shocking news, he
didn’t react emotionally. “She asked me to tell you that she won’t take out her anger at your stupidity on
Madeleine. The treatment will continue.”
Faustina was dumbfounded. Then, her legs gave way and she copsed on the floor, covering her face
and sobbing uncontrobly.
“If I knew my loose lips would get that child killed, I’d rather sew my mouth shut than say a word!”
Penn stood up, went over to Faustina and squatted down, patting her shoulder. “Madeleine is still easily
affected by the emotions of those around her. It’s better to cry it out here with me, but make sure not to
bring your emotions outside.”
Faustina nodded repeatedly. With Penn’s constion, her emotions gradually calmed down.
After drying her tears, she left, full of gratitude.
Penn stood up, looking at the door that had been left ajar. The thin woman had already left.
He went back to his desk, picked up a bottle of alcohol, sprayed a bunch on his hands, and slowly
wiped them dry.
Then, he called his assistant.
*Check my schedule for me.” Penn said, ncing at his calendar, “Make sure to avoid the start of
school term in H Country.”
