Chapter 454
Upon seeing Cyrus‘ guilty expression and his cowardice in making eye contact, Richard’s gaze grew colder.
If Cyrus was afraid to even look him in the eye, it proved he was useless! It also meant that Damon was the best candidate to inherit the Sumner Group.
Richard was determined not to let Damon be ruined because of a woman.
“I brought you here tonight to ask about the hypnosis treatment you mentioned this morning. Are there any successful case studies?” Richard inquired.
Cyrus‘ face lit up with excitement. “Yes, yes! I can show you!”
Seeing his barely contained enthusiasm, Richard narrowed his eyes. He stood up and said, “Let’s discuss this in the study.”
The two spent over an hour in the study.
By the time dinner was ready, Marie had to call several times before they finally emerged.
Cyrus was flushed with delight. He turned to Richard earnestly, saying, “Dad, don’t worry. I’ll book a flight abroad for tomorrow and bring back a professional. I will make sure Damon is not at any risk. He’s my brother, and I want him to be well, too.”
Richard hummed in response.
After a hurried dinner, Cyrus quickly left.
Marie looked at Richard with concern. “Richard, have you decided to go along with Cyrus‘ plan?”
Richard looked up. “Didn’t you just say this morning that you hoped our son would return? Why are you hesitating now?”
“I’m afraid that… if it doesn’t work, our relationship with Damon will definitely worsen… I’m also worried about causing him harm…” Marie confessed.
Richard’s expression turned icy. Women were so troublesome–wanting to achieve their goals while avoiding any risks. Things didn’t work that way.
“I’ll handle this myself. You don’t need to worry about it,” Richard said.
Marie sighed and fell silent. Once Richard made a decision, there was no changing it.
After dinner, Richard summoned the butler to the study and instructed, “Have a few people secretly follow Cyrus. He’s clearly planning to use this opportunity against Damon. I can’t let him have any chance.”
The butler, Frank Cobb, lowered his head. “Understood. I’ll arrange it immediately.”
Within a week, Cyrus returned to the country with the hypnotist he had mentioned.
As soon as they landed, he took the hypnotist straight to the Sumner residence.
“Dad, this is Dr. Sean Merritt, the hypnotist I told you about. He’s very well known internationally,” Cyrus introduced.
After Richard greeted Sean, he signaled to Frank.

Soon, a few black–clad bodyguards stepped forward and restrained Cyrus.
Cyrus was taken aback. He quickly looked at Richard and asked, “Dad, what is the meaning of this?”
Richard remained unmoved, his expression cold. “What do you mean, what’s the meaning of this? Do you think I don’t know about your schemes?”
“Dad, what are you talking about? I don’t understand,” Cyrus protested.
Richard sneered and had Frank present evidence of Cyrus‘ pan to use Sean’s hypnosis to turn Damon into a fool.
Cyrus, filled with anger, quickly went pale. He couldn’t help but question, “If you knew about my plan, why didn’t you stop me from the start?! Why did you make me go abroad to bring Dr. Merritt back?!”
