The reason why Mason was so cold towards Veronica after returning to the country was revealed to her when she accidentally overheard a private conversation between Mason and his parents.
Hypnosis!
It turns out that there is such a hypnosis technique that allows one to remember everything, but at the same time, it can also diminish the emotions associated with those memories.
At that time, she clearly heard his father ask Mason, âHow could you bear to use this kind of hypnosis?â
This is Masonâs response:
âBecause at that time, I felt like if I didnât undergo that hypnosis, I wouldnât be able to go on living.â
âWas it really that bad?â
Did Masonâs feelings for Veronica reach such a deep level at that time?
Initially, she had hoped that Veronica and Mason could reconcile, or that they could become a couple, but after everything that has happened, it seems unlikely.
Mason no longer has any feelings for Veronica.
After the trial ended, all the kidnappers were sentenced to 7-15 years in prison. As for Lionel, since he was a minor and evidence showed that his initial intention was only a fake kidnapping, and Jasper and Veronica both issued forgiveness. letters for Lionel, he was released on the spot.
Archer and Rosalind were crying and laughing while holding their son, while Veronica stood aside, looking like an outsider.
Jasper wanted to go over and talk to Veronica, but William next to him pulled him back and said, âDonât go over there!â
âBut what about Veronica?â Jasper asked, feeling worried.
âIf you go over there now, it will only make her more embarrassed and uncomfortable. Besides, with your situation with Mason and her, what do you plan to say to her? Are you going to tell her not to worry or tell her to go find Mason again?â William advised.
âIf you go over there now, it will only make her more embarrassed and uncomfortable. Besides, with the situation between you, Mason, and her, what do you plan to say to her? Are you going to tell her not to worry about it, or tell her to go find Mason?â William said.
Jasper was speechless, as neither option seemed appropriate.
âThis is between her and Mason. You are just an outsider, and getting involved would only make things worse,â William continued.
Jasper had also learned about Masonâs hypnosis from him yesterday.
After finding out, he couldnât help but admire Masonâs determination to make such a difficult decision.
Perhaps only someone who has liked someone before would understand how much courage it takes for Mason to make that decision.
Upon hearing this, Jasper hesitated for a moment before ultimately deciding to leave with William.
As they walked outside the courthouse, Jasper asked, âDo you think hypnosis can really completely diminish oneâs emotions?
Even if they remember everything that happened, can they still detach themselves from it?â
âI donât know,â William replied. âBut based on how Mason is treating Veronica now, it seems to be the case.â
âMason clearly likes Veronica, so why doesnât he try to pursue her again? Maybe if he did, Veronica wouldnât just see him as a little brother,â Jasper frowned.
âThatâs because in this world, there are some things that canât be obtained just by pursuing them,â
William said. Just like him, he was uncertain about whether he could truly be with her in the future.
âSoâ¦William, if we ever have an argument in the future, would you choose to hypnotize and forget our feelings for each other?â Jasper asked abruptly.
She was afraid that one day he would make the same choice as Mason.
âNo, I wouldnât,â William paused his steps and looked at Jasper walking beside him. âEven if we argue, no matter how angry or sad I am, I would never make that kind of choice.â
âReally?â Her eyes lit up.
âYes,â he said, because he couldnât bear to give up the feelings he had for her. Even if it would be painful in the future, he would rather keep this feeling.
âThen letâs shake on it!â Jasper immediately said.
