Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 103

Chapter 103 Almost Found The Cause

The first possibility was that Preston was facing competition for family inheritance rights, such as the one between Alexander and Julian.

If the results of a certain project back then had not been what Preston had wanted and he could not accept the reality, his brain might have suddenly gone wrong.

There was another possibility. During the car accident, he experienced things he did not want to experience and saw people he did not want to face.

So, he was completely dumbfounded!

Lianne was in a difficult position and did not know what to say.

Annalise looked at her and said, “Ms Blake, you have to tell me everything before I can judge Preston’s situation..”

“Preston, he’s?”

“It’s a mental illness!”

Lianne felt extremely upset. She let out a long sigh and said, “My brother’s been here ever since he was discharged from the hospital after the car accident. My father and the others went to visit him when he was in the hospital. After he came here, he didn’t go back to celebrate the New Year with us once. Sometimes, my grandmother and I would come over to spend the New Year with him.

“At that time, Grandma wanted to bring my brother home to recuperate. My father said that my brother had. lost his memory and become stupid. If I brought him back, he might smash the family’s valuables. Moreover, it would be bad luck to bring him back after he became stupid. It was better to recuperate

outside before returning home. The scenery and air in the villa in the suburbs would be better, which is good for recuperation.

“Grandma was so angry that she almost fainted, she chased after my father and beat him with her walking stick. Later, I said that I would let my brother stay in the suburban villa.

“My thought was that my own place was always more reassuring. My brother had lost his memory, lost his normal intelligence, and lost his normal judgment. I was afraid that something would happen to his life at home.

“Other than Preston and I, my father also has other children. He has daughters and sons, so he doesn’t care about me and Preston.”

Speaking of this, Lianne’s eyes turned red.

“Sorry!” Annalise said.

She did not want to touch on her sad matters, but she had to find the root cause of the illness before she could treat Preston.

Preston’s situation was completely psychological.

Lianne shook her head. “I’m fine. I’ve just embarrassed myself in front of you.”

“No, every family has their issues,” Annalise Barton said.

Lianne sighed. “Yes, every family has their own problems.”

Especially for a wealthy family like theirs. They looked glamorous on the surface, but they had a ton of problems hidden from the public.

All sorts of fights and schemes.

She was really tired, but she could not say it.

No one cares if you are tired, no one will understand you. If she said it, others would only see her cowardice.

Moreover, she already had a better life than many people.

Compared to those who were kidnapped and forced to bear children, those who were ordered to have an abortion when the family found out it was a girl, those who were sold by their parents in exchange for a few thousand dollars of bride price, those who were forced to work by their parents after getting into a famous university… She was much better.

The world is cruel. We can only work hard to believe there is beauty in this world, create beauty, and cherish beauty.

Annalise caught important information from Lianne’s words-Lianne’s father did not like Lianne and Preston. Moreover, he was unwilling to bring Preston back home.

Could it be that their father had given a project that Preston rightfully earned to another son, causing him to lose his mind?

Thinking about it, she asked again, “Do you still remember the reason for your brother’s car accident? Was it caused by a phone call or something?”

“Yes, it was caused by a phone call,” Lianne said.

Annalise immediately asked again, “Who answered the call at that time? Is it someone your brother cares a lot about?”

Lianne shook her head. “I don’t think so. It was just a call from his classmate.”

Annalise asked again, “At that time, did Preston have a project that he particularly valued? Or did your brother have a fiercely competitive relationship with your father’s other children?”

Lianne fell into deep thought.

Annalise encouraged her. “There’s no hurry. Take your time to think about it. These are very important.” Lianne suddenly raised her head and asked Annalise, “Are you a psychiatrist?”

Annalise said, “Sort of.”

She was a proper doctor, very proficient in both traditional medicine and Western medicine.

It was only when she accompanied John to a special doctor’s volunteer consultation in Caspardion that she realized that there were actually so many people in this world who had no physical problems but had different mental illnesses.

That was when she started learning psychology.

The more she learned, the more she realized that human psychology was the most terrifying thing.

Desire, energy, brightness, darkness, kindness, selfishness, and all sorts of emotions filled humans, causing everyone to have different external manifestations.

Lianne nodded and felt much more at ease. Perhaps a psychiatrist would be able to treat her brother’s illness.

She recalled and said, “When my brother had the car accident, there were only two months left until we turned 18. Grandma said at that time that when I turned 18, she would give my brothers some shares and let him officially become the deputy general manager of the Blake Corporation to lay the foundation for him to take over the Blake Corportion…”

Annalise could not help but interrupt, “Then is there a possibility that your brother’s car accident was not an accident?”

Lianne suddenly looked up at Annalise.

Annalise immediately said, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have made such a deduction without any basis.”

She blamed herself for talking too much.

Unless Lianne said it herself, she should not analyze this kind of private conflict in a wealthy family. She might get in trouble for it.

She did not know about the Blake Corporation’s situation, so she should not be making assumptions. However, she had a very bad habit. Once she took over a patient, she wanted to find the cause of the illness and treat him as soon as possible.

“No, I’ve thought about it too, but I don’t have any evidence,” Lianne said.

“Then, when your brother lost his memory, did your father ever ask your grandma o give the shares to your father’s other sons?” Annalise asked.

“Yes, he did.” Quite many times, in fact.

“Has your father not come to visit your brother in the past few years?” Annalise asked again.

“No, he hasn’t “Lianne was already a little indignant when she mentioned this matter. She was feeling angry for her brother.

“Not even once?” Annalise asked.

She was actually a little excited. She felt that she was about to discover the truth. Could it be that their father did not dare to face Preston at all?

“Yes, not even once.” Speaking of this, Lianne became even angrier.

“Did he care about your condition? For example, did he ever ask about how Preston is? Ask the doctor about his situation? Or things like that?” Annalise asked again.

Lianne nodded. “Yes, he frequently asked about Preston, but only asked.”

After saying this, she was stunned and looked at Annalise. “You mean, my father is afraid that my brother might get better?”

Annalise remained silent.

Lianne was furious. “That’s great. What a great father. Haha!”

When Annalise saw Lianne like this, she could not help but reach out to hold her hand and comfort her. “Your brother will get better! Don’t think too much. When he gets better, everything will be clear.” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Perhaps because Annalise did not have a father, she always felt that her father was a scumbag. Therefore, she could empathize with Lianne situation.
