Chapter 810: Allen just woke up.

[PRESENT TIME]

Penny sat behind her desk, pausing every once in a while to think about her friend, Heart.

"Impossible," she breathed out, narrowing her eyes as she shook her head. "Don't tell me, Sister Belle is... Heart?"

Again, Penny shook her head to rid herself of those thoughts. What were the odds? But then again, that birthmark looked so much the same and in the same place as the one Heart had. Penny would know because she had seen it a lot of times.

Heart was mute, and the burn on her body was so severe she looked like a monster. It was what other inmates called her to mock or make fun of her. After all, Heart barely had a few strands of hair, which Penny would sometimes shave for her.

However, because that place was a prison, Penny rarely got too personal with anyone in it. She disliked people asking her questions about her life outside those walls, so she didn't ask others either. Grace, however, was different. Grace liked poking her nose where it didn't belong; she liked gossiping and would tell Penny about it all. It was why Grace sometimes found herself in trouble.

But that was how Penny found out that Heart had originally been in the psych ward prison and was transferred to normal prison cells after she recovered.

"If, let's say, Belle is Heart... then..." Penny trailed off, thinking about Heart's sentence and the reason she was behind bars. There were a few rumors about her, but Penny wasn't sure which was true.

Some said she had gotten burned because she committed arson, only to get trapped in the house she burned. Others said her burns were already there before she ended up in prison. Either way, what Penny remembered was that Heart had been sentenced to life in prison.

"I don't want her to be Heart, but... what if that's the reason I felt like I've known her for a long time?" she wondered to herself, her heart suddenly thudding.
