Lucas took her to Evercrest Mental Health Center, the same one
she called before.
After getting off the car, Adelaide exclaimed, “Is he here?”
Lucas locked the car and said, “Well, he’s in a really bad state of
mind. I’ll take you to see him, but I can’t guarantee you’ll be able
to talk to him face to face. Be prepared mentally.”
Adelaide was silent, it was hard to imagine.
After going in with him, she asked, “Do you know what you
would face if Spencer found out about this?”
“My friend had nothing to do,” Lucas answered quite casually.
“Wasn’t your relationship very good?”
“The relationship is good.” He said confidently, but Lucas had a nonchalant look on his face. “So as long as we stay hidden and
not get caught, then it’s fine.”
Adelaide could only look at him with a bewildered expression.

Adelaide followed him to see a chief doctor, and then they went

The head doctor said, “No, he had aggressive behavior!”
That means she only knew who the person was, but couldn’t
ask anything.
Lucas said, “Don’t worry, now that you know he exists, there
will be plenty of opportunities in the future to ask for what you
want. Do you want to exchange contact information with the
head doctor?”

Adelaide said thank you and then added the head doctor on
WhatsApp.
The head doctor had to leave for something, so they were still
standing here observing the situation inside.
Adelaide asked, “Lucas, how are you so sure that this person is
the one who switched me and Amanda back then?”
“He said it himself.”
Adelaide listened quietly to what he had to say.
“He used to talk nonsense all the time, the most he said was that
I would never let that bastard Finley see his own daughter
