Zachary said, "I want you to introduce me to a professional rehabilitation doctor. I need help on how to correctly exercise my legs so I can stand up again. Over the years, I've been suspecting Sophia of using drugs to stop me from recovering. Every single doctor she sent would mislead me and teach me the wrong way rehabilitation techniques. As much as I tried to spit out the medicine she gave, I still showed no signs of improvement. I'll discuss the emotional entanglement with your sister after I can stand up on my own again."
The request was within reason one, so Lucas nodded. "I can do that, but will Sophia allow you to accept the doctor's guidance?"
Zachary replied, "Online will do. Sophia would never allow me to contact outsiders. Here's my email address. Get a hacker to bypass all security measures and send me the doctor's contact information. Sophia keeps close tabs on my cell phone and other means of contact. She doesn't allow me to be in touch with anyone."
Lucas suddenly realized how much control Sophia had over Jeremy in recent years. It would have been very difficult for Jeremy during that time. He nodded. "Okay."
Zachary then added, "If it's possible, could you also try to delay Sophia's progress in selling off her father's property? Drag it for as long as you can manage."
Lucas thought for a moment and narrowed his eyes. "Okay. I'll send someone to monitor her progress and try to delay it as much as possible."
Zachary then thanked him. "Thank you very much."
Time was running out, and it would be bad news if Sophia came back ahead of schedule. Lucas had a lot of questions to ask Jeremy, but there was no point in doing so because the latter had no recollection of anything. He then decided to get up and prepared to leave. He wanted to determine Sophia's progress and find a reliable doctor for Jeremy.
"Uncle!"
After hearing his nephew's explanation, Lucas had a sudden realization and looked at Zachary. "So, the child staying with Corinne now is the child that you took with you all those years ago?"
Zachary clarified, "I cannot admit to having taken the boy because I don't remember anything from the past, but I can say for sure that the child staying at Miss Corinne's place is my son, Benjamin."
Lucas immediately felt a headache coming on. "Then..."
Zachary then said, "We can only leave things as it is for now and switch them again when a suitable opportunity arises. Sophia will suspect something if you bring Bryan back with you now."
