Chapter 2145: Chapter 2148

Edwin nodded, understanding the strategic patience behind Brian’s decision.

He had initially wondered why Brian had given up so quickly this time, but now it all made sense.

It turned out that Brian was making a strategic move to let Aldrich expose his weaknesses.

Edwin breathed a sigh of relief, understanding the deeper plan.

After a moment’s thought, he continued his report to Brian.

“I have sent someone to investigate the doctor who gave psychological advice to your mother.

He is a famous psychologist, especially known for his skills in hypnosis.

Recently, a significant sum of money was deposited into his account.

After thorough investigation, we discovered the remitter is Selina.

”

Brian’s eyes narrowed at the revelation, his expression turning grim.

“Have you taken the pills my mother took for a test?” he asked, his voice sharp with urgency.

“Yes.

” Edwin confirmed.

“I’ve also tested the pills your mother was taking.

They are anti-depressants.

”

“But,” he added, “a familiar doctor mentioned that there are many types of anti-depressant pills.

The ones your mother took are imported and have severe side effects after clinical trials.

Our domestic psychologists generally don’t prescribe them.

”

Brian’s lips tightened into a sharp arc.

Hypnosis, coupled with the side effects of the pills, was the main cause of his mother’s mental problems.

Brian concluded that Selina was behind all this.

She had exploited his mother’s prejudice against Rosalynn to stage the dramatic incident of her jumping off a building, all to drive a wedge between him and Rosalynn.

Meanwhile, Aldrich used the ensuing chaos and public opinion to force him to step down.

These two, one seeking promotion and the other vengeance, had colluded in their schemes.

Brian remained silent, his face cold and hard as he reached the ground floor.

He strode out of the elevator, his mind racing with plans for retribution.

At the same moment, another elevator arrived, and someone hurriedly ran after him.

“Mr.

Hughes,” a voice called out.

Brian stopped at the door and turned to see Betsy approaching.

Last time, Betsy had been beaten while defending him.

Brian had asked Edwin to investigate her background after she was injured.

According to the information Edwin provided, Betsy had been in a serious car accident a few months ago.

On the day she was rushed to the hospital, the doctor had issued a critical condition notice.
