Cordell replied.
With that, he led them to the reception room.
A man was sitting in the reception room. He looked about fifty years old, and the hair around his temples was already turning grey.
When Stella saw the man, she was momentarily taken aback. Meanwhile, Cordell started the introduction. This is Dr. Earle Haywood, a professor from Wyvernston and also a renowned researcher in brain science. He is globally famous for his medical skills. So far, he has successfully treated three cases of complicated brain disease around the world.
Earle seemed gentle and confident; at one glance, one could tell that he was truly an experienced physician.

Dr. Haywood has more experience than me in treating such illnesses. He has already read Bellas medical records and suggested a more feasible therapy. I intend to ask Dr. Haywood to take charge of Bellas treatment from now on and I will assist him.
Cordell was not someone who easily showered others with praise. In a few words, he had demonstrated Earles expertise in a way that no one would doubt it.
The people in the room had different reactions to Cordells statement.
While Stella and Bella were pleasantly surprised, Kristian looked uneasy. No one, however, paid attention to him at this moment, so his unusual expression went unnoticed.
After the brief introduction, Bella was taken for treatment while the others went out.
Kristian sat in the chair, looking listless and unsettled.

In this situation, however, his anxiety seemed more like he was worried about Bella.
Not knowing what to say, Stella just stood quietly aside.
Suddenly, Matthew walked toward them.
Stellas eyes widened in surprise. What are you doing here? Did you wrap up the company deal?
Matthew had been nose-deep in negotiations for a new project lately. He had told her last night that he couldnt come to the hospital and that she could contact him if needed.
Seeing Kristian nearby, Matthew offered a vague response. Just need a word with Cordell, thats all.
Stellas brow furrowed. Hes in the treatment room. Whats this about? Are you feeling unwell?
A practiced smile flickered across Matthews face. Just some private business, nothing to worry about.
Kristian, completely focused on the treatment room, remained oblivious to Matthews expression.
Ever since Cordells introduction of Earle, a gnawing unease had settled in his gut. The possibility of Bella regaining her memories was terrifying. He knew he had to act. As soon as Bella emerged from treatment, hed find a way to shut this whole thing down. Even if it meant resorting to. special methods.
An hour ticked by.
When Earle finally emerged, his expression was grave. May I speak with a family member in private?
Stellas heart hammered against her ribs. Knowing she wasnt a family member of Bellas, Stella was about to walk away to give them private space.
