“What’s the rush?” Vera glanced at Ramon. Why was Ramon panicking? This was nothing. Besides, Vera was Dr. Miracle. She still had a trick up her sleeve.

ld finish, Vera scampered over to Adam. “Mr. Parks, that’s a cool watch you have there. It’s Rolex, right?”

However, Adam looked disinterested, merely acknowledging her statement.

Undeterred, Vera thrust her watch toward Adam. “You seem to know your stuff, Mr. Parks. Can you see if this Patek Philippe is real?”

Vera lowered her voice and pulled Adam aside. “Tell you the truth, this watch was given to me by my ex-boyfriend’s mother. She said it’s difficult to find a mechanical watch in stores nowadays. Listen to the sound of the second hand. It’s so crisp, isn’t it? Does it sound like the watch Mrs. Melanie gave you before she passed?”

Vera’s voice pulled Adam into a memory. He was hypnotized before he realized it.

Vera quickly signaled to Ramon. He then had the bodyguards turn away as he needed to undress Samuel for the following examination. Ramon took Samuel into the adjacent examination room and switched him with Neil, who had been hiding for a long time.

James put a hat and mask on Samuel and left the hospital with him.

Meanwhile, Ramon gently pinched Neil’s delicate neck. “Sorry, Neil. Blame your sc**mb*g dad for being too ruthless.”

Neil had seen the marks on Samuel’s neck. He couldn’t believe his dad would do such a thing. How could his dad treat his younger brother like that?

Ramon was careful not to hurt Neil. He only created a bit of redness and swelling so Neil would pass inspection. It was Carlos’s fault for using too much force. Otherwise, with Ramon’s special medicine, Samuel should have recovered.

“Was it really Dad?” Neil typed on his phone, needing to confirm with Ramon.

“Your mom and I saw it. What do you think?” Ramon couldn’t understand. Vera was perfect. How could she fall in love with Carlos back then? Besides his looks,

Hearing Veras deliberately loud footsteps, Ramon quickly made a hushing gesture to Neil. Then ! ndressed Neil quickly and examined him.

Adam entered

examination room without knocking. His sharp gaze swept through the room, linding nothing odd. He relaxed and continued to watch Vera and Ramon.

It wasn’t until the next examination that Ramon seized the opportunity to speak with Vera. “I must say, you’re indeed an internationally acclaimed hypnotist. You managed to hypnotize him even when he was alert. Too bad you can’t do it longer, but luckily, it doesn’t take long to switch them.”

“Do you expect me to praise you?” Vera glanced at him. “Carlos and his men have received anti-hypnosis training. I can only hypnotize them for forty seconds, or they’ll know.”

Vera had to know them well enough to understand what could move them.

Adam, for example, had done something wrong in the past, leading to severe consequences. Melanie Monroe, Carlos’s grandmother, had gone to great lengths to protect him. She even gifted him her cherished Patek Philippe watch.

However, when Adam finally achieved something to show Melanie, she unexpectedly passed away. It became a regret of Adam. Vera used this to bring Adam into a hypnotic state.

“How long can you get away with hypnotizing Carlos?” Ramon asked curiously. He wished Vera would directly hypnotize Carlos to kill Averie and then commit suicide. Then they could go back happily.
