After coming out from Harper Corporation, Preston made a call to Zoe the moment he got into his car.
"You are indeed a genius, Zoe! How did you come up with such a well-crafted plan? I'm sorry that I raised my voice at you previously."
"I've told you that I won't disappoint you, Uncle Preston. Just listen to me next time and you'll have good days ahead of you," Zoe boasted light-heartedly.
That mastermind was amazing. Even if she had three heads, she wouldn't have been able to come up with a detailed and evil scheme like this.
"Oh, right. There's something that I have to tell you." Preston grinned slyly. "It's about what you said last time. You said that if we released the video of Lauren having a meltdown, we wouldn't have to get our hands dirty."
"Oh? Are you telling me that Grandpa intends to separate the lovebirds himself?" This time, Zoe was quick off the mark.
"You're smart." In his luxury car, Preston crossed his legs relaxedly. He sipped on the tea that his secretary had prepared for him.
"Dad will be the one taking action. Since this is the case, he will be the one to take the hit even if Landon wants to take his revenge. We won't be implicated.
"But Zoe, I'm just afraid that this will not curb Landon's determination to marry Ms. Lauren. He is willing to do anything."
"Well, even if he wishes to marry her, she might not feel the same." Zoe sneered. "I have a backup plan to ensure that his dream is completely crushed. Don't worry."
Lauren lost consciousness on the way to the hospital.
Landon stayed by her side the entire time while she underwent various body checks. He stared blankly as Lauren's limp body was being moved about like a soulless puppet.
His heart broke again and again. Tears flowed down his face uncontrollably.
After repeated testing, the doctor finally came out of the emergency room. He reported, "Mr. Harper, your wife doesn't have any physical wounds on her body, nor were there any signs of assault."
Landon's eyes were wide and filled with surprise. "Then, why is she..."
"It's probably because she experienced great psychological distress which caused somatization. Other than that, she was too agitated, anxious, and terrified.
"These resulted in her experiencing a tightness in her chest and shortness of breath. Hence, she showed signs of respiratory alkalosis. That's why she ended up convulsing and passing out."
The doctor had a concerned look on his face. "What you need now is to pay more attention to your wife's psychological condition. I am not a psychiatrist, but I can tell that her condition doesn't look very optimistic. You should transfer her to a psychiatric hospital and get her checked as soon as possible." There was a quiver in Landon's pupils as his heart dropped.
Preston didn't hurt Lauren.
No, from the very beginning, he never intended to harm her physically. Instead, he wanted to break her mentally.
He knew about Lauren's autism. Hence, he took an evil approach to cause her to have a complete breakdown.
