Parental Qualification Certificate

Chapter 10

After finally ending his long story, Ok Taecyeon smiled and aggressively asked Lisa, "Tell me about your childhood! I checked your information, and I know that you are also a patient with a Grade 6 subconscious trauma syndrome, the most serious condition. Did you get abused when you were a kid?"

His gloating and anticipating tone made Lisa very uncomfortable, which made her squirm.

She noticed that most of the hostages around her looked at her in utter shock.

Lisa sighed. This time, her condition was completely exposed.

"Did you not check? Didn't you find any information about my childhood?" She said, slightly ironically.

"That's the court's fault! Why should they keep the records of the abused children tight?" Ok Taecyeon said with dissatisfaction, "Of course, if I spend more time hacking their database, I will naturally find it. But isn't it more satisfying to hear you say it yourself?"

Lisa then thought to delay the time to soothe his emotions.

She then started to tell the truth about her and talked about her childhood.

Her father, Marco Bruschweiler, was a carpenter. He had a gentle temperament but was a loner, an introvert, one must say. He did not like communicating with people, although his passion was mainly to make wood art furniture.

Her biological mother, Chittip Manobal, was a grumpy and competitive woman.

Because of her bad temper and her relationship with her colleagues and supervisors, Chittip Manobal changed jobs multiple times.

In the end, she inherited the family farm, which was not very well-run. This caused her life to be filled with frustration.

After a flying saucer accident, Chittip Manobal fell in love with Marco Bruschweiler and did everything to chase him.

After the two got married, Marco Bruschweiler became Chittip Manobal's man. However, this was the beginning of the contradiction and downfall between the two, deteriorating their marriage.

Marco Bruschweiler was a pure craftsman. He had no ambition to become a well-known artist. He only wanted to be an ordinary craftsman who does not worry about luxury and social status.

Unfortunately, he felt that his wife paid too much attention to fame and wealth. She has her head too high in the clouds and forgot to cherish what she had. She forced him to be competitive all the time.

Chittip Manobal felt that her husband had great potential and that he should not remain as a mere mediocre craftsman all his life. She traveled around the neighborhood and made friends, as she desperately wanted to push her husband on the road to fame.

However, her temper rose through the roof when she paid so much for him, yet in the end, he didn't want to be famous. He was just happy and content with his life. But not Chittip Manobal.

The conflict between the two became more and more intense as time passed. Their quarrels became more violent, which grew into long fights and grew worse into gruesome physical abuse. However, it was Chittip Manobal who lost her temper unilaterally.

Because of her character, Chittip Manobal was aggressive every time she fought, and her husband had no choice but to obey.

Marco Bruschweiler didn't like arguing, especially not with Chittip Manobal. He always kept his silence when his wife lost her temper, but he did not listen to her. Her arguments came in one ear and popped out from the other. This made Chittip Manobal feel that she had nowhere to vent her anger, causing her temper to get more violent.

In Lisa's childhood memories, Chittip Manobal was always aggressively blaming her husband and reprimanding her daughter. Marco Bruschweiler either watched his wife lose her temper without saying a word, or went to the studio in the basement to hide away from it all, not wanting to fight back.

Lisa was afraid to face Chittip Manobal's anger and would always hide when Chittip Manobal was angry with Marco Bruschweiler.

On the day, Lisa saw a fuming Marco Bruschweiler going home through her window and went straight to the basement. She followed him.

When Chittip Manobal went home, she went directly to the basement. Lisa had no time to hide elsewhere, so she found a place in the basement to hide.

That day, Chittip Manobal lost her temper again because Marco Bruschweiler turned down an invitation to an art gallery that his wife took the time to request.

The long-depressed Marco Bruschweiler finally broke out completely, and he proposed a divorce to Chittip Manobal.

Chittip Manobal was stunned. But the moment passed, and all hell broke loose. She was so angry that she picked up a knife to plunge at him.

Fortunately, Marco Bruschweiler dodged again and again, yet he tripped on the woodworking saw and debris in the basement floor.

In the end, the anger burned her reason. Chittip Manobal rushed up, pressed Marco Bruschweiler's head on the chainsaw, and turned on the switch...

His head gushed and splattered raw blood from his head.

That scene unfolded to Lisa hiding next to him.

Since then, the oozing blood and brain never faded from her memory. She could even recall it like it was yesterday.

After the murder, in order to hide the crime, Chittip Manobal faked the fact that Marco Bruschweiler abandoned his wife and took away his daughter. She disposed of her husband's body and imprisoned Lisa in the basement.

At that time, Lisa was rather apathetic, and she hated Chittip Manobal for killing her father, who loved her. She vowed to bring Chittip Manobal to court and avenge her father.

Remembering these past events to Taecyeon, Lisa gave some details of Chittip Manobal's temper tantrums and abusing her, but concealed all the key information which made people guess that she was the victim of the "Chittip Manobal case" that year.

This was her privacy, and she didn't want it to be exposed to the public eye. She only managed to share a fabricated lie that is easy to believe.

"One day, my father proposed a divorce to my biological mother and then left without looking back. I originally wanted to go with my father, but my biological mother desperately stopped me. My father thought of waiting for the judge to decide. I waited at home, but my dad never came back because he had an accident and died... My biological mother locked me up at home, physically abused me to vent her temper. She didn't let anyone see me. No one knew what I had experienced..."

Although she revealed plenty of true life details of her story of torture, she did not want to reminisce about the moments of her loving father's death in the hands of a madwoman.

Ok Taecyeon smiled at her after she spoke dryly and had nothing else to say.

"Your story is good," he said, "so I will give you a reward. You can decide who is the first hostage to be executed."
