Chapter 518 The Foremost Global Authority On…
As the atmosphere calmed, the reporters began trickling out.
Gradually, the family elders also exited, leaving behind a once–bustling hall now drenched in stillness.
Sadie let go of Briley’s hand.
The moment she pivoted to leave, Briley’s restraint gave way entirely.
In a sudden outburst, Briley lunged, palm slicing through the air toward Sadie’s cheek.
“You vile witch!”
But Sadie moved with razor precision. Her gaze turned icy as she intercepted the attack, seizing Briley’s wrist and flinging
it aside with swift force.
Briley lost balance and crashed awkwardly to the floor.
“I’d tread carefully if I were you,” Sadie murmured, her tone dangerously calm. “You wouldn’t want to end up like Coyle.”
Briley’s pupils contracted in shock, her body involuntarily trembling.
Though rage twisted her features, her mouth stayed shut.
Sadie didn’t spare her another second–she turned on her heel and headed out, slipping into the car waiting outside.
Briley stayed on the frigid floor, shaking with fury. Her fists clenched, her mind echoed with one thought: Sadie would pay for this. And for what happened to her brother, vengeance was inevitable.
In the vehicle, Samuel swiveled in his seat, shooting Sadie a thumbs–up. “Your tactic of playing the underdog worked flawlessly, Ms. Hudson. The narrative is now in our favor, and Briley can no longer work in Wall Group. She’ll be too busy
putting out PR fires to stir up more chaos.”
Sadie exhaled and massaged her temples, her face unreadable.
Briley had only been the beginning.
“What’s the update on the investigation of the doctors?”
At that, Samuel’s expression turned serious. He handed her a tablet.
Sadie scanned the display- neurology, cognitive repair, top–tier practitioners…
Her gaze halted on a name: Hailey Burgess.
As detailed in the document, Hailey had earned a reputation as the foremost global authority on cognitive recovery.
The others listed were either completely obscure or had their records so tightly guarded they couldn’t be accessed.

Chapter 518 The Foremost Global Authority On Cognitive Recovery
Sadie’s stomach dropped.
Samuel chimed in, “Ms. Burgess departed from Rosewood Hospital in Zupren three years prior. That’s why some of her
files have been declassified. However, Rosewood Hospital is famous for its rigid confidentiality measures. If you’re trying to
identify other physicians connected to Mr. Noel’s case, you’ll probably need to travel to Zupren directly.”
Three years ago? Hailey had practiced medicine at Rosewood Hospital? Was that the point at which she crossed paths with
Noah?
Sadie felt like she was slowly lifting veils–each step revealing a glimpse of something hidden beneath.
Back at Wall Group, she moved listlessly through the building, her thoughts elsewhere. Eyes lowered, she didn’t notice the person waiting beside the elevator until it was too late.
She walked straight into a firm chest, warm through the fabric.
The sudden jolt left her momentarily dazed. She instinctively stepped back—but a gloved hand, strong and sure, caught
her waist and held her steady.
