CHAPTER 1992 DID SOMEONE SWITCH OUT HIS BRAIN

Madilyn proceeded to update Roxanne on the subsequent developments related to the bacteria outbreak at the hospital. “I've gone to the psychiatric hospital to check on Christina. She has really gone mad! She's semi-conscious, unresponsive, and keeps talking gibberish. The doctors there also mentioned she once sneaked into the medication room in the middle of the night, grabbed a lot of medicine, and swallowed them all. In the end, they had to send her to the hospital where they managed to save her after much effort.”

The incident's instigator, Christina, was now of unsound mind. As for the hospital's doctors and nurses, they received much acknowledgment after surviving the ordeal. The health department's senior officials even came down to present awards to them in person.

The hospital also received praise and official recognition with a chance of being included on the list of designated hospitals cooperating with medical insurance providers in the future.

Jonathan added, “The criminal proceedings against Christina have entered the prosecution stage. Regardless of whether the suspect is mentally unstable, such a crime carries a mandatory prison sentence of at least fifteen years. And because of Christina's case, Elektra's sentence has been commuted.”

Lucian and Roxanne exchanged glances while quietly breathing sighs of relief. Whether she goes by Christina or Aubree, she'll have nothing to do with us from now on.

“Oh, one more thing. Lucian, after you purchased the patent licensing for Moranta, Mr. Goldstein suddenly canceled his itinerary in Chanaea. Perhaps it was because he had planned to monopolize the market for that medicine, but that didn't work out. Or it could be because of Christina's mental state,”

Jonathan continued.

However, Lucian knitted his brows and shook his head. “No. Someone like him wouldn't let Christina influence his actions. There's only one possibility—his plans in Chanaea fell through. Think about it. What would you do if you wanted everyone to depend on your medicine?”

Roxanne and Madilyn were shocked to hear that.

Meanwhile, Jonathan's gaze turned cold and piercing. “I see. So, what happened at the hospital this time was merely a test. Not only did Mr. Goldstein know all about Christina's plot, but he even deliberately allowed her to carry it out!”

Lucian nodded in response.

Jonathan's admiration for Lucian instantly grew stronger. I didn't even consider things from that angle. I'm still too naive.

The four of them continued chatting for a little longer, and it was past eight o'clock in the evening when Jonathan left with Madilyn.

Roxanne wondered out loud how long it would take for the pair to finally confirm their relationship.

“I'm guessing things will move along very swiftly from here on in. Jonathan has finally seen the light,” Lucian said with a faint smile.

However, she shook her head. She still did not believe that would happen.

Hence, the couple made a bet on whether Jonathan and Madilyn would confirm their relationship within the next week.

If they did, Lucian would win the bet and have the chance to make Roxanne do whatever he wished.

“This bet sounds pretty good. As for what to make you do, I'll have to give it some thought. Should it be something you hate to do the most, or should it be something that you're the most afraid of?” Lucian grinned impishly, seemingly confident of winning. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Naturally, if Roxanne's guess proved accurate, she would also get to make Lucian do whatever she wanted. However, she was quite troubled about that as Lucian seemed down to do anything she asked of him even without the bet. If that's the case, it'd be meaningless even if I won.

Since the temperature at night was starting to get colder, Jonathan closed the car window and turned on the heat a little.

Madilyn thought he would send her straight home after leaving the Farwell residence. To her surprise, he remarked on how beautiful the moon looked that night and said there was a spot he wanted to take her to that was perfect for admiring the night sky.

Upon hearing that, she could not help thinking how strange it was. Jonathan would never have said anything like that in the past. What has changed in him? Did someone switch out his brain? Or did someone else reincarnate in his body like what happens in novels and movies?

However, although she felt doubtful, she was also overjoyed.
