Chapter 2054
When Natalie completely lost consciousness, Rosalynn was already by Wayne's side.
She knew very well that at that time, Wayne was on full alert, not just for his own sake, but also for his ailing grandmother.
If, at this moment, Penn revealed his identity, and Natalie had no recollection of him, it could be perilously risky for Penn.
"I made a promise to Natalie. If that day ever came, I would do everything in my power to prevent a tragedy like Ayden's, and the regret of my father from happening again. I am being completely honest with you, everything I told you is the truth and you can verify it, Ms. Jared"b2 Penn paused for a moment and added, "If you need my father's work tapes, I can provide them,"
Rosalynn watched him closely.
"We need to hurry, don't we?" Penn said again.
Rosalynn's gaze darkened slightly.
"Your sudden request for this meeting, I guess... President Silverman is not doing well, or rather, his condition has deteriorated to a point that even you can't remain calm, right?" Penn was, after all, a student of psychology.
One's body language and micro-expressions can reveal their current state of mind. So, guessing Wayne's current situation wasn't exactly a hard task.
Penn said no more as he sat in silence, waiting for Rosalynn to speak.
This was about Wayne, and regardless of how truthful Penn's words were, Rosalynn couldn't just take his word for it.
Swiftly, she texted Baillie. Not long after, Baillie texted back.
[I just confirmed it, Dr. Lange's research institute has been funded by large investments from a company named BridgeWay Finance Group for the past fifteen years, which can be traced back to Natalie's shell investment company. So far, they have only funded Dr. Lange's institute.]
Rosalynn pursed her lips, the heavy stone in her heart fell with a thud, followed by an overwhelming wave of exhaustion that spread throughout her body. She fought to keep her spirits up.
Baillie then sent another message, [Rosalynn, Penn is trustworthy.]
Rosalynn felt a sting in her eyes, and she looked up at Penn.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
"Your guess was right," Rosalynn said calmly, "Wayne's condition is very bad. The day after I saw you, I found that he was seeing things he couldn't distinguish."
"What things?" Penn sat upright, asking seriously.
"A child" Rosalynn answered, "As far as I know, a hallucination that appeared when we were in Norhaven visiting my friend who was giving birth in the summer. A hallucination of a child named Ayden, who had a similar childhood experience to him."
Penn's expression slightly changed.
