Bennett replied, "It's been a while. Ever since she was disfigured, her emotions have been very unstable."
The doctor nodded. "No wonder. Massive trauma can also lead to mental breakdowns."
The doctor pondered for a moment, then added, "I will arrange for a psychologist to conduct intervention therapy with her. The treatment results will be better that way."
Bennett didn't really care whether Lydia recovered or not. Deep down, he actually hoped she would stay in the psychiatric hospital for the rest of her life.
But in front of outsiders and his own daughter, he had to play the role of a caring husband.
That was why he had arranged for Lydia to stay in the best private sanitarium in Empire City and hired an internationally renowned expert. The cost wasn't cheap, but it bought him a good reputation.
Even if something happened to Lydia in the future, he could completely distance himself from it.
Bennett nodded gratefully. "Doctor, I'll have to trouble you, then. I leave my wife in your care. I wonder if you have time to grab a casual meal with me later?"
The doctor smiled and expressed his thanks. "I appreciate the offer, Mr. Sutton, but let's do it next time. I have other guests waiting for me shortly."
After personally seeing Bennett and Lilith out, the doctor returned to his office, where Summer and Leila were waiting for him.
Leila had completed four phases of reconstructive surgery, and now her appearance was almost identical to how she used to look.
She had just returned to the country a few days ago.
The doctor nodded at them and personally poured tea. "Ms. Vance, Ms. Leila."
"Doctor, this is a gift Professor Lake asked me to bring to you." Leila handed over a gift.
Professor Lake was the attending physician treating Leila overseas. He was the doctor's senior and a leading authoritative expert in treating psychiatric disorders.
Back when Leila went overseas for recovery and treatment, Julian Vane had helped connect her with doctors. One was Dr. Joseph, a top authority in facial reconstructive surgery.
The other was Professor Lake.
Leila's condition was very well managed, but she couldn't stop her medication and required regular check-ups.
So Professor Lake had recommended this doctor.
The doctor smiled as he accepted the gift. "Thank you, Ms. Leila. My senior has already transferred your medical records to me. I've finished reading them and had a dedicated discussion with him. The follow-up treatment plan has been finalized, I'll send it to you and Ms. Vance to review."
The doctor sent the treatment plan to their small group chat of four. Professor Lake was highly responsible and was also in the chat.
The doctor personally explained the follow-up treatment plan to Summer and Leila, as well as any potential issues that might arise. He was incredibly detailed and patient.
For anything Summer didn't understand, the doctor broke it down piece by piece to explain it until she grasped it fully.
By the time the follow-up treatment plan was finalized, two hours had already passed.
The doctor invited Summer and Leila to have a casual meal at the sanitarium.
Though he called it a casual meal, the food inside was exceptionally good, entirely on par with a five-star hotel.
After all, this was the best private sanitarium in Empire City, and the people living here were all wealthy and noble, so the food, accommodation, and transportation provided here were all top-tier.
