Free Web NovelChapter 237: Why Should I Trust You?
Gulping, the doctor trembled and said with the last bit of hope, "Mr. Lucas, if you have any orders, just explain... "
The doctor prayed that Michael was not here for that matter.
"First, did Wendy come to you a week ago?"
The doctor dared not lie and nodded truthfully. "Second... " Michael looked him in the eye with intimidation as he said, "What did you say to her?"
Michael didn’t need to ask why Wendy was looking for him because he already knew.
"I... " The doctor’s tone was filled with fear.
"Say it!"
Michael’s tone frightened the doctor so much that his body trembled, and he immediately told the truth by saying, "I told her that there were two kinds of medicine she showed me and one was to help restore the memory and the other was to inhibit it."
"What else?" This was something that he knew about. What Michael needed to know was the rest.
"Nothing... no more... " The doctor didn’t know why Michael had suddenly come to him today, but he had helped with one more lie and Zen had given him 20,000 dollars.
That was enough to show that that lie was important.
It was likely that the doctor would be in great trouble if he told it.
Michael watched the doctor’s evasive gaze and knew he was lying.
Michael laughed coldly and told the bodyguard outside the door, "Come in!"
The bodyguard immediately went in.
"Cut one of his fingers off... " Michael said. "If he doesn’t say anything in three minutes, cut another one. If he doesn’t say anything after ten fingers are cut, I’ll consider him a man and let him go, and I’ll give him ten million dollars for medical and emotional compensation."
"Yes." The bodyguard immediately took his knife out and approached the doctor step by step.
Seeing that the bodyguard was already close and would reach out to grab his hand in the next second, the doctor closed his eyes and finally couldn’t help but say, "I’ll talk! I’ll talk!" freewёbnoνel.com
Michael shot a look at the bodyguard, who stood still.
"I also said that if the medicine that inhibits memory recovery is taken for a month, the memory will not be recovered for good." The doctor trembled with fear. At this time, to save his life, he immediately continued, "Mr. Lucas, I was also instructed by someone to do so, so please spare me this time."
"By whom?" Michael had already guessed it.
Sure enough, the doctor said, "Zen."
Michael didn’t know whether it was Zen’s own intention or Christian’s order. But no matter what, Zen and Christian were in the same boat.
"Mr. Lucas, please spare me this time. I won’t dare to do it again." The doctor cried in fear and begged for mercy.
Sweeping a glance at the doctor, Michael said coldly, "As a doctor, you have no medical ethics at all. You don’t deserve to continue to be a doctor at all!"
Turning to Mr. York, Michael said, "Revoke his license to practice medicine and ban him for life."
"Mr. Lucas, I’ve been a doctor all my life, and I... "
The doctor wanted to say something else, but Michael swept a cold glare directly at him.
The doctor did not dare to speak again. He was afraid that if he said any more, his life would be in danger.
The good thing was that Michael now knew the truth.
No wonder Wendy was so angry and no wonder she suspected that he had taken her back today only to make her feel that he had done her a favor.
As long as he knew what the problem was, Michael would be able to solve it.
As for Zen, Michael would find a chance to deal with her later.
The most important thing now would be to find Wendy and make it clear.
Between him and Wendy, there could not be any more misunderstandings like this.

Michael returned to the company and went straight to the office to find Wendy.
At this moment, she had her head down and was busy with something.
Hearing the footsteps, Wendy looked up and saw that it was Michael. She frowned and asked, "What can I do for you?"
Wendy’s tone was not pleasant.
They had had a fight in the morning, and Wendy hadn’t cooled off yet. In fact, for Wendy, it wasn’t as simple as a fight. And Michael lied to her.
Michael changed her medication behind her back and then changed it back a month later while saying he would help her recover her memory.
Anyone would be angry about something like that, right?
"Wendy, I want to talk to you," Michael spoke directly.
"Sorry, it’s office hours and I’m quite busy with work." Wendy made a gesture to the door and said, "Please go out."
"Ten minutes, just listen to me for ten minutes." Michael walked up and stood directly in front of her with an earnest tone as he said, "I just went to the hospital and met with the doctor who gave you your last appointment."
"You investigated me?" Wendy frowned and said in a very dissatisfied tone, "Michael, who are you to investigate my affairs again and again? Or do you think that because you have power and authority, you can do whatever you want?"
"It’s true that I’m wrong to investigate you behind your back, but I also have a reason." Michael apologized and said, "Did you not want to go into that room in the morning because you thought it was impossible for you to regain your memory?"
"Michael, what are you trying to play at again?" Wendy spoke with some impatience and said with a bitter laugh, "I know you changed my medication, so I know there must have been a lot of unpleasant things between us before. "But I had taken the initiative to give up taking the medicine and recovering my memory to maintain the status quo.
"What about you? The things you did behind my back, and you made me feel like I was a joke.
"Now, what else are you trying to lie to me about?"
Wendy’s emotional reaction was something Michael could understand.
The more agitated she got, the more quickly Michael had to explain this matter away.
"I did change your medication, but the medicine that inhibits memory recovery does not have the so-called effect of not being able to recover your memory after taking it for a month." Michael said, "This matter was instigated by someone behind the scenes to deliberately destroy the relationship between us."
"What do you mean?" Wendy was surprised to hear this.
Wendy went silent for a moment with her eyelids lowered, then looked up at him and said, "Why should I trust you, Michael?"
"I know you’ll probably be suspicious of anything I say now." Michael said, "If you really don’t believe me, I can have that doctor come in and you can question that doctor face to face."
Michael saw that Wendy didn’t retort and immediately called Mr. York to bring the man in.
In order to prevent Wendy from not believing his side of the story, Michael brought the doctor back with him on his way back.
At first, Michael planned to explain to her himself because it would be best if he could explain clearly.
If he couldn’t explain it clearly, he had to let her confront the doctor.
The doctor knelt in front of Wendy in fear.
Michael said in a stern voice, "Lift your head up!"
The doctor had to do as he was told.
Wendy saw the doctor’s face, and he was indeed the same doctor as last time.
"Repeat what you said to me truthfully," Michael said.
