Chapter 102 Investigating Preston’s Illness
Lianne was in a difficult position. “But my brother he, he’s always been like this.”
She didn’t want to question the person Julian introduced.
She always trusted Julian’s judgment.
Moreover, at Samuel’s birthday banquet, she saw what Annalise did. Whether it was giving out a jar of Energizing Pills or writing calligraphy with Julian, Annalise was definitely not as simple as a country girl.
But now, after taking Preston’s pulse, Annalise said that there was no problem with her brother. Could there really be no problem? Then why was he acting like this?
“Is the brain CT from the hospital also normal?” Annalise asked.
“Yes, all the checks are normal,” Lianne immediately said.
Annalise nodded and said to Preston, “Can I play a game with you? Let’s play a new game.”
Preston’s eyes lit up when he heard about the new game.
The surprise in his eyes was definitely not fake.
Annalise said, “Let’s play a guessing game.”
“Just like on TV. You draw and I guess?” Preston looked very interested.
“Yes.” Annalise nodded.
“Do you need pens and paper?” Lianne immediately asked.
“Yes,” Annalise replied.
Lianne immediately prepared the pens and papers.
After a while, Lianne came over with pens and papers. In addition to a pencil and a ball pen, she also brought some coloured pens.
Preston was very excited. “Now you draw, quickly.”
His eyes were fixed on the paper.
Annalise took a pencil and began to draw. She first drew rainbows.
She drew very slowly. Out of the corner of her eye, she kept sizing up Preston.
She wanted to read something in his eyes.
There was nothing wrong with his pulse. If there was nothing wrong with his CT scan, there were only two possibilities for him to be acting like a child.
He was either faking it or suffering from mental illness.
Some patients suffered intense shock before the accident and might have mental or intellectual disabilities.
This was the brain’s instinct to protect itself.
Some people had experienced a lot of hardships in their lives, and their mental pressure was especially high. In order to prevent the human body from committing suicide subjectively, the brain would protect the human body by restricting access to some areas.
This was also why the mentally ill had no worries.
“Ha, I guessed it. This is a rainbow!” Preston said excitedly.
“That’s right, you’re great!” Annalise smiled and praised sincerely.
Her eyes met his when she complimented him.
Just like before, his gaze was very direct and frank, not hiding anything.
Annalise decided to continue observing.
If he was certainly not faking it, then he must have suffered a huge mental shock. It would be a mental illness that had to be traced back to the source.
Anyway, she would first investigate the cause of the illness. Then, she would ask Julian about his
relationship with Lianne.
If Julian and Lianne were really a couple, she would refer Preston to John.
Her emotions and treating a patient were two different matters, she had to follow it through.
“Why aren’t you drawing anymore? Hurry up and draw. I can’t wait anymore.” Preston stared at the pen in Annalise’s hand.
Annalise smiled and continued drawing.
This time she drew an Ultraman.
Preston said excitedly. “This is Ultraman Victory. His name is Shawn.”
“Yes.” Annalise smiled and drew a sunflower.
Although she was painting, she had been paying attention to the changes in Preston’s expression.
If he was pretending, he would most likely look at her with disdain when she drew the sunflowers. After all, sunflowers were only suitable for two-year-old children!
However, it did not happen. Preston shouted, “Sunflower!”
His eyes lit up. He was really happy that he guessed right.
The people who were hired to play with Preston every day also came over.
Seeing Annalise drawing, they whispered,
“Tsk, is she here to diagnose or to show off her drawing skills?”
“You got to give it to her, she draws well.”
“Ms Blake must be desperate. Unlike other professions, doctors rely on their experience, not talent.”
They spoke very quietly.
Lianne still heard it.
She looked over coldly.
The few of them immediately fell silent.
Liane secretly glanced at Julian.
Julian watched his wife paint with a proud expression.
Lianne sighed.
She also took a look at the painting by Annalise. It was indeed quite good.
She also knew how to draw, so she could clearly see that Annalise’s drawing skills were extraordinary. However, could this painting really cure Preston’s illness?
Sigh!
It was fine, she thought Annalise should treat Preston any way she wanted. After all, Preston’s illness had already lasted for so many years and no one could cure him.
“You’re really amazing at this!” Annalise praised Preston again.
She had been observing him and did not see any abnormality.
She guessed that he might have really suffered a huge psychological blow.
She continued drawing. Suddenly, she raised her head and rolled her eyes. Her mouth was crooked, and her hands were in a claw shape as she roared at Preston, “Ahhhh!”
Preston jumped back far away, his face pale. He suddenly sat down on the ground and cried.
A few people who usually played with Bai Zhengyin looked at Annalise strangely. They felt that Annalise was crazy.
“Is this really curing? It’s more like exorcism!”
Lianne immediately went to comfort her brother and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. We’re all playing games. Don’t be afraid!”
“Sorry!” Annalise apologized.
“Mrs Parks, you don’t have to apologize. It’s our fault,” Lianne immediately said.
Annalise had a better impression of Lianne. She glanced at Preston and said to Annalise, “I have something to say to you in private.”
Preston’s condition was obviously not fake. It must be a psychological problem.
“Alright, please follow me.” Lianne immediately brought Annalise to the back garden.
The back garden was large and quiet. There was a stone table and a swing set.
Lianne brought Annalise to the stone table and said politely, “Mrs. Parks, please sit!”
“Okay.” Annalise sat down and asked, “Has your brother always been like this after the car accident?”
“Yes, it’s been six years.” When Lianne mentioned this, she felt upset and her eyes became sorrowful.
“Did he drive alone on the day of the accident? Did he have any companions in the car?” Annalise asked again. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Lianne said, “Yes, he was alone.”
“Has he been living here since he lost his memory?” Annalise asked again.
Actually, Bai Zhengyin’s situation was not called amnesia, but dementia.
However, dementia would be quite insulting, so she politely said that Preston had lost his memory.
Lianne nodded. “Yes, he’s always lived here.”
“Does he hang out with you guys during festivals?” Annalise asked again.
She had already thought a lot from Preston’s point of view.
As the young master of the Blake family, Preston lived a rich life that ordinary people could not have. Under normal circumstances, his life should not be stressful.
A sudden car accident, and suddenly suffering from dementia. There were two possibilities.
