Bogus Billionaire
Kirk frowned. âJust tell her.â
Only then did Michael ask, âMs. Caroline, have you undergone hypnosis before?â
âNo.â Caroline remembered that she had never undergone hypnosis.
Michael said, âNow, thatâs strange. Your resistance to the hypnosis suggests that youâve been hypnotized before and have lost your memories of it happening. Otherwise, you wouldnât act this way.â
He paused. âWhen it comes to hypnosis, if oneâs psyche gets damaged from their first hypnosis, theyâll develop this kneeâjerk reaction.
âTheyâll react violently every subsequent time they get hypnotized. Therefore, in your case, you must have been hypnotized before, and your psyche was harmed by it.â
Caroline frowned and spent a long time recalling things. âBut I really donât remember undergoing hypnosis.â
At the mention of this, she remembered something. âBut I donât have any memories of the time before I was around five or six years old.â
âDid you get hypnotized at that age?â
When Michael said this, Caroline remembered something else. Sarah had once taken her to see a psychiatrist. Moreover, Sarah seemed to avoid talking about it.
Caroline said, âI donât know.â
Michael said, âIn that case, youâd better figure it out, Ms. Caroline. If you have undergone hypnosis before, we have no choice but to rule out this treatment method. Weâll move on to another form of treatment.â
The next form of treatment was shock therapy. It was a treatment method that Kirk was adamant against. He frowned deeply at Michaelâs words.
Caroline held Kirkâs hand. She gave him a smile and calmed him down.
After Kirk seemed calmer, Caroline turned to Michael. âOkay, Iâll figure things out. If I canât, weâll proceed with the next plan.â
âDarling!â Kirk gripped Carolineâs hand.
Caroline smiled and stood up from the bed. âWeâll be heading home, Dr. Caldwell.â
âOkay.â
As Michael watched the three of them leave, he couldnât help but sigh. âI didnât expect to see the fearless Mr. Kirk submitting to a woman like her.â
When the three of them reached the door, Caroline told Sean, âSean, Kirk and I have to go somewhere.â
âGot it.â Sean said, âThen, Iâll leave you guys be.â After saying that, he quickly ran away.
After Sean left, Caroline turned to Kirk and said, âLetâs go for a walk, Kirk.â
âOkay.â
And so the two of them walked along the street. Kirk didnât ask Caroline where they were going, and he didnât need to ask. He would always follow her, no matter where she went.
âDo you still remember what I told you?â Caroline finally asked.
âAbout how I didnât have any memories of the time before I was five or six years old?â
Kirk turned to Caroline, a hint of sadness hidden in his gaze. âSo, do you have suspicions that youâve undergone hypnosis before?â
Caroline said, âThat should be the case⦠If Iâm not wrong, the hypnosis must have happened when Sarah had taken me to the hospital.
âThe only thing I remember is that I could read the word âpsychologyâ. She had seemed very happy about that⦠Then, I donât know why, but As Caroline talked, she frowned, feeling that piercing feeling in her chest again.
Kirk squeezed Carolineâs hand He felt a sense of powerlessness envelop his entire being once more.
