Heather just smiled.
She hoped he was alright, but it had nothing to do with her own situation.
Heather was taken away and locked in an interrogation room by Lucia, even Lake was not allowed to approach or see her.
The only way now, as he said, was to wait for Li Sinian to wake up.
Lucia did what she said, death penalty could be avoided, but punishment was inevitable, Heather was severely tortured, but not fatally; when she almost couldn't bear it, they would heal her, just like the treatment Li Sinian received.
Her face was always pale, she did not argue or beg for mercy.
She spent three days like this.
She lingered on the brink of life and death, getting close, then being pulled back.
At night, she would cry, but not from physical pain. In the silence, she would remember past events or have hallucinations, then weep softly.
