Chapter 485
Chapter 485 1/2 Neil and Silvia entered the room before the doctor and two nurses followed suit.
Troy became nervous when he suddenly saw so many people. He started to back away while he made some intelligible sounds, “Ah, ah.” It was evident that he was not happy with their arrival.
Neil gave him an icy stare and began to question him.
“Troy Zobel, were you involved in Sean Remus and Beatrice Gould’s car accident?”
The mention of their names seemed to agitate Troy. He screamed and waved his hands in fear. “Ah! Ah! Go! Go! Afraid...”
Neil showed no sympathy and continued, “Why did you leave the country right after Sean and Beatrice got involved in the car accident? Did you do something wrong?”
“No! Ah! Afraid...°

As he spoke, Troy started to bang his head against the wall. It was as if he could not feel any pain based on how loud the thuds were.
The doctor’s expression changed. He moved forward to grab Troy and quickly said, “Get the sedative!”
The nurse immediately complied. Within a minute, Troy received a sedative injection. He gradually stopped moving around and fell into a peaceful slumber.
The doctor turned to Neil and spoke seriously, “Mr. Remus, we can’t agitate Troy any further today. If we do, we’ll worsen his condition and end up with no answers.”
Neil's expression remained grim. “I understand. Keep an eye on him. I'll come back tomorrow.”
“Mr. Remus, it'll take about a week to get Troy’s condition under control. | suggest that you return in a week or wait for our notification.”
Neil frowned when he heard this. “Can’t | return sooner? | don’t have the patience to wait that long.”
The doctor had a troubled look. “This is as fast as we can manage. Honestly, | can’t even guarantee that his condition will improve within a week.”
Silvia stepped forward and softly said, “The doctor's right. Since a psychiatric patient's emotions can fluctuate, there’s no saying when his condition will stabilize.”
“Let me know right away if anything happens,” Neil said. “Sure, Mr. Remus.” Neil and Silvia then left the mental health hospital. On the way back, Neil stayed quiet.
They had managed to find Troy, and based on his reaction earlier, Neil was certain that he knew something about the car accident. Otherwise, he would not have been so agitated when Neil mentioned Sean and Beatrice.
However, with Troy being mentally impaired, getting an answer from him was an incredibly challenging task.
Silvia glanced at Neil and calmly said, “Don’t expect too much from Troy. Given his current condition, it's hard to say if he can return to normal.”
“Yeah, | know.”
After a brief silence, Silvia continued, “You should question your dad as well. He probably knows who had problems with your uncle and aunt back then. Maybe he could shed some light.”
Atrace of irritation flickered in Neil’s cold eyes.
“I've asked him about this several times, but he won't tell me anything about my uncle and aunt.”
“You can tell him that Troy’s back.”
Neil turned to Silvia and asked, “Are you suspicious of my dad?”
Silvia remained calm. “I don’t trust anyone, to be exact. After all, we don’t know what happened between them.” Neil clenched his fists, and his gaze grew colder.
“You're right. Perhaps | should have a good talk with my dad.” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
