My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 766

Chapter 766

The man's forehead was almost as hot as the sun.

D*mn it! Why does he have such a high fever?

Ashlyn had been busy with the movie recently, so it had been days since she had seen Lucas.

What happened to him? Why is he in this state now?

At the hospital, Sinclair was furrowing his brows and telling Ashlyn, “His other personality is the reason for this fever. I might not be able to deal with this for now.”

“What?” Ashlyn cocked a brow. “What do you mean?”

Sinclair rubbed his hands before awkwardly muttering, “You'll have to consult my mentor for this. He's a prominent figure in the world of psychology. I've treated Lucas for many years, and although I was able to keep it under control, I can't rid him of it. We'll need my mentor to consult him instead.”

“So where's your mentor?” asked Ashlyn as she looked at Sinclair. “If he can take Lucas' case, I'll go find him.”

“Ms. Berry, my mentor is in Maredania. He has been retired for a long time—he organized a retirement party a few years back and decided not to take on any case anymore.”

Ashlyn could hear the hesitation in Sinclair's voice, so she hastily asked, “Is there something else about it?”

“Yes... My mentor retired because someone set him up. His competition against Maredania Psychiatric Hospital's vice director for the role of president in the psychology association ended up affecting his child. His child had been living with him after he got a divorce from his spouse. The vice director was unashamed about pulling dirty tricks, so he hired people to kidnap my mentor's child to force him out of the competition. Indeed, he left. However, it was too late. The child was brilliant and managed to flee from the vice director. Unfortunately, his child encountered an accident during the escape and... passed away. He feels guilty for it.”

“So he decided to never consult others again and to retire from the industry?”

Ashlyn sighed. She never thought that Sinclair's mentor would have experienced something like that in the past.

“Where's the vice director now?”

“He managed to become the president of the psychology association, and the two kidnappers were charged guilty and imprisoned. However, the mastermind behind the incident is actually the president of the association. My mentor is constantly in a gloomy mood, and the child's mother hates him, too. She's resentful about how he fought for child's custody but failed to keep the child alive.”

“I see. I got it.” Ashlyn nodded.

“What do you mean by you got it?” Sinclair did not quite understand what she meant.

Curling her lips, Ashlyn replied, “Karma is always just around the corner.”

Meanwhile, plenty of posts were spreading around on WhatsApp and Twitter.
