Chapter 1376
However, Jenniferâs eyes dimmed swiftly.
âBut Lily will never let me get close to Anthony now that she knows Iâve overheard what she said.
Besides, itâll take some time to undo the hypnotization effect,â she said with a frown. âHeâs been
hypnotized since he was young, so I imagine itâd be very hard to undo it.â
âI did some research on hypnotization before,â drawled Harvey. âIt will be quite hard to undo the effects
when he had been hypnotized for so long. In fact, Iâd reckon itâd take at least a year or so if the
hypnotist is a very good one. And thereâs one other thingâ¦
âAnthony wonât be that easily hypnotized now as compared to when he was younger. What Lily is doing
now is just driving in the message she planted in his head. In other words, sheâs not trying to plant new
ideas. Itâll be hard to undo the effects.â
Harvey looked at Jennifer. âI suggest you team up with Anthonyâs parents on this to have a higher
chance of succeeding. Make sure heâs not spending time with Lily while heâs receiving treatment, or
your efforts will be in vain.â
Jennifer nodded thoughtfully. âThank you, Harvey. Iâll take everything you said into my plan.â
Harvey smiled. âI know a few friends who are amazing hypnotists. Shall I recommend them to you?â
âReally?â Jenniferâs expression lit up with hope.
Harvey nodded with a smile. âYeah. You can find me anytime you need help. Vicky and I go way back,
so her friend is my friend too.â
Jennifer was grateful to Harvey.
After talking to Jennifer for a bit more, Vicky decided it was time forthem to go.
Seeing this, Harvey said, âVicky, let me give you a ride back since neither you nor Mister Hart drove
here.â
Tyler narrowed his eyes. âIâve already called for a car, so no need for all that trouble.â
They walked out of the hospital and saw Harryâs car would not have to spend a minute longer with
Harvey than he had to.
Vicky turned to Harvey. âI guess this is where we say goodbye. And, oh, thanks for all your help today.â
Harvey did not insist anymore. He glanced at Tyler Weâre friends after all.â
Vicky decided to quickly get out of there when she saw Tylerâs worsening expression. She dragged
Tyler into the car after saying goodbye to Harvey.
The car engine started, and Harvey stood as he watched their car drive away.
Even though Harvey was not with them, the atmosphere in the car felt stifling. Vicky turned to look at
Tyler-who was the source of the uneasiness-and held his hand. However, he shook her hand off with a
poker face.
Vicky tried to reach for his hand again, but he simply moved his hand away.
After a few more tries, Vicky asked helplessly, âAre you angry?â
âNo,â Tyler replied emotionlessly.
Vicky tried to explain herself, âI didnât mean to hide it from you. I didnât even know he would be dropping
by. Plus, he hasnât even been there for a minute before you cameâ¦â
âWould you have told me he came to find you if I didnât happen to come at the same time?â interrupted
Tyler.â Would you have gone to lunch with him?â
âYes, I wouldâve told you, and no, I wouldnât have gone to lunch with him!â Vicky laced her fingers tightly
with his. âI swear, nothing is going on between us. And Iâve never even liked him. The only reason I
agreed to marry him back then was because he was a convenient human shield.â
Tyler said nothing, but he did not shake off her hand either.
