My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit
Chapter 576 The Consult with Finn

The next day, Sydney received a call from Finn, who informed her to collect her medicine from the hospital.

Ever since Cayden had poisoned Sydney, her uterus was damaged, so she had been taking medication to fully recover.

Now that she had already been taking the same type of medicine and undergone the same treatment for a few sessions, Finn notified her that it was time to proceed to the next stage of the treatment, which would also require a change of medication.

"Yup, I'm aware of that. I'll come over in the afternoon," Sydney replied to Finn, who was on the other end of the call. Then she put her phone away and headed for

Skylight Corporation from home.

"Ms. Raines." Sean stood outside Sydney's office, and when she saw Sydney stepping out of the elevator, Sean slightly bowed at her. "Welcome back."

"Thank you." Sydney smiled as Sean opened the door for her and extended an arm to invite her inside.

When Sydney was about to enter the office, she suddenly stopped in her tracks as if she had just seen something. While fixing her eyes on Sean's face, she asked in a concerned manner, "Sean, you didn't have a good rest in the past two days, did you? You look tired. Are you okay?"

Sean rubbed her face. Bitterness flashed across her eyes. Then, she curled her lips and replied, "Thanks for your concern, Ms. Raines. Something came up in the past two days, so I didn't have a good rest." Sydney asked, "What was it? Do you need help with it?"

"Well, it's nothing big." Sean shook her head. "It's fine. I can handle it myself."

She thought, 'Ms. Raines mustn't know what has happened between Mr. Chase and me.'

When she noticed her secretary's insistence, Sydney decided not to press on and instead nodded. "Alright. If you need anything, please let me know."

"Okay, Ms. Raines," Sean felt grateful and smiled.

Then, Sydney walked into her office with Sean right behind her as Sean reported her schedule for the day.

When she heard that she had to attend a meeting about new energy technology at the Flint Corporation, Sydney paused in surprise. "Did you just say that I have a meeting to attend at the Flint Corporation?' She raised an eyebrow skeptically as she tried to confirm what she had just heard.

"Yes, Ms. Raines." Sean adjusted her glasses.

"Now I get it. That's where you'll wait for me." Sydney curled her lips upward, finally catching up to what Julien meant when he said that they would meet again the next day.

Sydney thought, 'No wonder Julien said he would see me today. Well, it looks like he arranged this meeting quite a while ago.'

"What do you mean, Ms. Raines?" Sean had no idea what was on Sydney's mind, so she was confused when she heard what Sydney had said.

Sydney responded by rubbing her temples. "It's nothing. Did the higher-ups mention the theme that will be discussed later in the meeting?"

"Yes, they did." Sean opened the document in her hand and flipped to a page before giving the file to Sydney. "The new energy technology has been on trial in the market for quite a while now, so the main purpose of this meeting is to let all partners explain the pros and cons of the trial of new energy technology and see if there is any room for improvement. If there aren't any cons, the new energy technology will be fully launched in the market."

"Oh, really?" Sydney stroked her chin and took the document as she began to skim through it. After that, she returned the file to Sean and added, "Alright. I guess I'm more or less aware of what's going on. Please gather the feedback from those in our company with regards to the trial use of the new technology. Once you have collected that information, submit it to me.

"Alright, Ms. Raines. "Sean turned around to step out of the office with the document.

When it was almost time for lunch, Sean organized and compiled everything for Sydney.

Then Sydney shoved everything in her folder. After that, she grabbed her handbag and drove away from Skylight Corporation to the hospital, where she planned to collect her medication before heading to the Flint Corporation.

Anyway, the meeting started at 2:00 p.m.

The moment she arrived at the Prima

Hospital, Sydney made her way straight to Finn's office, where she saw him being engrossed with the writing of his medical report.

Thus, she stood by the door and knocked on it.

When Finn heard the knock, he paused in his writing and looked up to greet Sydney with a smile at the sight of her. "Please come in."

"Sure. I'll make myself at home then." She put down her hand and stepped into his office.

"You're early." Finn happened to close his pen with a lid. "Have you had lunch yet?"

"I had some food in the car."

"Well, I should treat you to a meal then. The food in the cafeteria is very delicious." He opened his drawer and took a white card out of it to wave it at Sydney.

Sydney waved her hand to reject Finn's kind offer. "No, thanks. I'm not hungry now. Furthermore, I still have a meeting to attend later, so I'll be running late if I were to have lunch now. Thus, please take me to collect my medication now instead."

Now that she had already said so, Finn could only give in and inserted the card into his gown. "Alright, I'll take you to the OB-GYN for a check-up first so that we can determine the extent of your recovery before we can determine the necessary treatment for you."

"Okay," Sydney replied.

When both of them walked toward the OB-GYN, something seemingly crossed Sydney's mind. Then, she bit her lips and asked, "Dr. James, I have a question for you since your area of expertise includes hypnosis. I want to know whether hypnosis can tamper with a person's memory."

"Why do you ask?" Finn looked at her.

Sydney blinked, but she decided to be honest. "Julien told me yesterday that he found out that Lyra was posing as me back then, but before he could expose her, he was hypnotized to forget that he had realized she wasn't me For the next six years, the hypnotic effect continued to dominate his consciousness and prevented him from seeing the truth that I was the one whom he had been looking for." Finn adjusted his glasses. "I get what you're trying to say. You want to know whether Julien is being honest, right?"

Sydney replied with an affirmative hum." That's right. After all, his words just sounded like a bolt from the blue to me, and I'm not sure whether I can trust him. Since you're an expert in this area, I was hoping you could tell me whether Julien was telling me the truth."

"Well, you're right. I can indeed tell whether what he said was true."

"So-"

"It's true!"

"Wait, what?" Sydney was stunned.

Finn stopped in his tracks and looked at her. "Julien is telling the truth. He was indeed hypnotized, and the person who did that to him was my senior."

Sydney's eyes widened as she had a surprised look on her face. "Your senior?

"That's right." Finn nodded. "I only came to know about this matter two months ago, though. In fact, I had no idea that Julien had been hypnotized by my senior until he was involved in an accident that significantly reduced the hypnotic effect within him. When he sensed that there was something wrong with himself, he came to me for help and learned that my senior had taken control over his mind with hypnosis."

"So, it's true!" Sydney's eyes twitched. She looked extremely uneasy.

It turned out that Julien was indeed hypnotized.

Sydney felt Finn couldn't help Julian lie to her.

Finn bore no grudge against Julien. Furthermore, she was sure that Julien wouldn't dare to mess with Finn, for he might one day require Finn's help.

Therefore, Finn treated Julien the same as he treated others. He wouldn't be as cautious as others because they were inferior to Julien.

Therefore, Finn could refuse Julien if Julien had ever asked a favor from him.

Moreover, Finn was not someone who could easily be bribed. If anyone intended to do so, one would have to pay a high price, which was usually in any form other than money. After all, Finn was very wealthy as well.

Therefore, Julien didn't have to bribe Finn to deceive her.

At the thought of that, Sydney took a deep breath and asked, "Dr. James, what was the relationship between your senior and Lyra? Why would he help Lyra to hypnotize Julien?"
