Chapter 236 Psychological Issues Chapter 236 Psychological Issues A ZN Daniel took Angela to an area near the hospital, which was under construction, The view was open, and there were few people around.

84% 11:00 45 Free Coins “Is it safe to talk here?” Daniel looked at Angela with a puzzled expression. “Angela, are you going to discuss something confidential with me?”

Angela sighed deeply. “I have something to tell you.”

She knew that Daniel was Jonathan’s good friend, so it was okay to talk to him.

Upon hearing this, Daniel’s expression changed. “H–he...”

He was somewhat anxious, speaking in a stuttered manner. “S–so, how is he now?”

Angela hesitated for a moment before expressing her concern, “Everything seems normal. Daniel, what’s going on with Jonathan? I feel like there might be some psychological or mental issues”

Angela carefully chose her words.

In Daniel’s presence, she felt less constrained about her words.

Indeed, even in a more progressive and open–minded society decades later, prejudices persisted against individuals facing mental health challenges.

The reluctance to consult a psychologist was driven not only by the associated high costs but also by the fear of societal judgment.

Daniel’s face looked grim. “I don’t know either. Actually, Jon had similar situations in the past. But that was years ago, and I thought he was better now. But...”

The more Angela listened, the more concerned she became.

*He had similar situations before?” Angela repeated.

Daniel quickly reassured me in a light–hearted manner, “No need to worry. He’s just... a bit pessimistic with his emotions.

Sometimes, he might not grasp things fully. I don’t think it’s a significant concern.”

He then returned to his carefree demeanor. “Everyone has some dark moments in their lives. Despite how sunny and handsome I may look, I also have times when I’m not happy. When 1/4 2 MA Chapter 236 Psychological Issues you’re in a bad mood, it’s not hard to do some strange things.

84% 11:00 +5 Free Coins Angela glanced at Daniel. “You better come clean. This is a serious matter, not something trivial. If you don’t tell me the truth, what if something happens to Jonathan in the future?”

Daniel twitched his mouth and chuckled, “Oh, don’t be so worried. It’s not that serious. After all these years, nothing has happened, right?”

“Daniel...

“Angela.” Daniel interrupted Angela, “Don’t ask me anymore. I only know this much. Even if you ask me more, I won’t know. But since you’re here, I won’t let you leave empty–handed.”

Angela looked at Daniel.

He grinned, “There’s a delicious barbecue restaurant near the hospital that just opened recently. Would you like to give it a try?

My treat.”

Angela coldly snorted, “No need. Since you won’t tell me, I’ll go ask Old Mr. Lawson for the truth.”

2 With that, she turned to leave but was stopped by Daniel.

He sighed, “Oh, you’re always like this. Why are you just leaving like that? How can you disturb Old Mr. Lawson at his age with this matter?”

“Since you are so filial and don’t want to upset Old Mr. Lawson, just tell me willingly. I am Jonathan’s wife. I have an obligation to care for him. Or do you think I am the kind of person who would spread things around carelessly?” Angela tousled her hair.

Daniel quickly shook his head. “You misunderstand. I’m not unwilling to tell you, nor do I distrust you. It’s just... I just don’t want another person to worry. Because... how should I put it...”

Daniel pondered for a moment before explaining, “Here’s the situation. Jon consulted a psychologist, who is a friend of mine.

The psychologist suggested that Jon’s psychological issues could be serious or minor. However, Jon is reluctant to undergo treatment, and the psychologist advised us to avoid bringing it up whenever possible.”

“What does it mean by ‘serious or minor‘?” Angela was frustrated by this term. “Is it really serious?”

However, based on his self–harming behavior, the issue was clearly not minor.

Daniel appeared helpless. “I’m not very clear on it either.”

2/4 “So, you’re not sure what his psychological problem is?

“It could be related to his family specifically. But I don’t know the details. This involves very private matters. We are good friends, but we still need our own space? Daniel seemed troubled.

Like him, he wouldn’t reveal everything to others.

After thinking for a moment, Angela inquired, “Can you share the medical records from when your friend treated Jonathan?”

Perhaps, with some knowledge from her past life, she could assist in his treatment.

Daniel shook his head and gestured. “No, my friend is a psychologist. It would violate professional ethics to access someone’s privacy without permission.”

Angela felt conflicted as well. “I understand. I didn’t mean to take the medical records completely. Could you try to gather more information discrectly? Or, I can provide you with some questions to ask her. Also, we genuinely care about Jonathan. We mean no harm.”

After careful consideration, Daniel finally agreed, “I’ll give it a shot.”

Angela smiled. “Thank you.”

“It’s all for Jon; there is no need to thank me. I just want what’s best for him,” Daniel replied, glancing at the time. Suddenly realizing, he exclaimed, “Oh no, I forgot about a meeting later. I’m going to be late, and the dean will be there this time. I’m sure to get reprimanded.”

Angela was speechless.

Even in such a rush, he still has time to empathize with me so much.

“I should go now.” Daniel hurried off, running back in the direction they came from, looking flustered.

Angela couldn’t help but chuckle.

She couldn’t fathom how Daniel, renowned as the genius doctor, could be so disorganized.

If his patients know his true self, are they too scared to let him treat them?

Angela shook her head and left the hospital.

On the way back, she pondered Jonathan’s issue.

What might be the cause of his psychological problems?

Angela felt a headache coming on.

Just then, her phone rang.

Angela answered.

Linda’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Can you talk right now?”

Angela frowned.

Why did she call me?

The car had just entered the Lawson Residence.

“Wait a minute.” Angela got out of the car and walked to a corner of the yard, “What do you have to say?”

Linda’s voice came through. “Fanny returned to the Kins Family.”

2 Angela was somewhat surprised. “Are you keeping an eye on her?”

Linda’s voice carried a hint of coldness. “Of course, I naturally pay attention to the Kins Family members. Especially Fanny. Am I right?”

“Understood,” Angela replied casually.

Linda seemed surprised. “Is that all?”
