When Joe heard this question, his expression changed slightly.
He did not answer, but looked at Yvonne and Shane instead. It was obvious that he could not answer Sue i n their presence.
Yvonne noticed it and her eyes flashed. She smiled and said, "Since Sue and Joe have something to discuss, let's go, Dr. Summers."
"Yeah," Shane answered.
Sue opened her mouth and wanted to say something. Yvonne gave her a look and motioned her not to speak. After Sue understood what she meant, she nodded slightly.
Soon, Yvonne and Shane left the ward.
Sue looked at Joe.
Joe said in a deep voice, "Dr. Lucas is gone."
Sue was taken aback. "What do you mean gone?"
"Dr. Lucas was taken away," Joe replied in detail this time.
Sue exclaimed, "Who did it?" "Theo's mother." Joe slowly uttered as he stared at her.
Sue was surprised. "It was her?!"
It turned out to be madam.
Why did she take Dr. Lucas away?
Joe narrowed his eyes, "Sue, so you do know Theo's mother."
Sue's eyes flickered. "I..."
"Enough. If you have anything to say, you can tell Mr. Lancaster when he wakes up," Joe interrupted her.
Sue gave a bitter smile and did not answer. She walked towards the door of the ward, opened it, and exited the ward.
When she saw Yvonne talking to Shane in the corridor, she called out, "Miss Smith."
Yvonne stopped talking and turned her head to see Sue there, "What's wrong, Sue?"
Sue opened her mouth and whispered, "Dr. Lucas..."
Yvonne instantly understood what she was trying to say and nodded with a smile.
Sue was puzzled. "Why?"
Yvonne looked at Shane.
"Got it." Shane nodded and took out the folder under his arm. He opened it and took a piece of paper from the folder to give to Sue.
Sue took it suspiciously. "This is..."
"This is Henry's psychiatric report. It shows that he has been hypnotized and influenced by psychological cues in the past few years. These would actually leave a negative impact on the head and nerves of the human body. Henry's headache was caused by those reasons. The only person who could do that to Henry i s Dr. Lucas."
After listening to Shane's explanation, Sue's hands were shaking as she held onto the report. Her eyes were filled with fear. "How could this be..."
"That's the truth. If you want to know more about it, you can ask Jacqueline." Yvonne patted Sue on the shoulder and then said goodbye.
After Yvonne and Shane left, Sue returned to the ward angrily and asked Joe, "Mr. Woods, were you the one who hired Dr. Lucas for Mr. Lancaster?"
Joe didn't know what she was angry about. He nodded truthfully. "Yes."
Sue became even angrier, "Why? Why did you bring D r. Lucas, that evil wolf, into the Lancaster family?"
"Dr. Lucas was the best psychiatrist in Vancouver at the time, so of course I wanted to hire him. But Sue, what do you mean by evil wolf?" Joe frowned and looked at her.
Sue gave him the report in her hand in rage."See it for yourself. You’ll understand why I called him an evil wolf."
Joe didn't know what was going on, so he grabbed the report anxiously and checked it carefully.
After reading it, his expression changed. "Sue, what do the hypnosis and psychological cues mean?"
"What do they mean? Literally what it says. Dr. Summers told me about this, and he said that was why Mr. Lancaster's head hurt so much," Sue said fiercely.
Joe was anxious. "You mean, Dr. Lucas did that to Mr. Lancaster..."
"Yes, Dr. Lucas is the only psychiatrist treating Mr. Lancaster. So who else could’ve done that if not him?" Sue looked at the man on the hospital bed, distressed.
Joe suddenly squeezed the report in his hand. "But why did Dr. Lucas do this!"
"Shane told us to ask Jacqueline," Sue said as she tucked Henry's blanket.
Joe frowned suspiciously. "Ask Jacqueline? Could it b e that Jacqueline and Dr. Lucas actually... Wait, how did Dr. Summers know?"
