Conrad was stunned. There was a moment when he selfishly thought to himself to forget about the treatment. He only wanted her to stay by his side.He would give her everything that she needed. He would protect her.Once their children were born, they would watch their children grow up together.They would never be separated ever again.“Mr. Maxwell?” Marcus realized that something was wrong with Conrad.“Treat her!” Conrad dispelled the evil thoughts in his mind. “No matter what happens, her health is much more important.”Marcus nodded. “The treatment of mental illnesses requires the support of the patient’s closest friends and family. If you won’t support her, not only would it be bad for her condition, but it would worsen it too. If there are any problems between you two, accommodate her. Don’t start a fight with her.”Conrad nodded. “Sure.”“Well, this is where we should end for now. Once I’ve understood everything there is to know, I’ll think of treatment.” Marcus sat into
“Mr. Evans, the speed at which dishes are served at this restaurant is too slow,” Marcus said straightforwardly.Jason looked at him oddly. He was dressed like a native and his hair was very long.His face was so pale that he looked sickly, even looking like a newly reborn hungry ghost like those in Chinese movies.What he was really suspicious of was this person’s ability! Could it be that the hospital director had been cheated?No worries. Kent had the ability to investigate it.After the waiters served the later dishes, Jason ordered three extra dishes.When Marcus was eating, Jason secretly took a picture and sent it to Kent.“Aren’t you eating, Mr. Evans?” Marcus had eaten till he was half full before feeling a little embarrassed.Marcus looked at the phone in Jason’s hand. “When you are eating, you should eat properly. Don’t play with electronics. It is easy to become reliant on them. If it is serious, it will turn from reliance to an addiction that you can’t quit and it
Marcus raised his eyes and his gaze was indifferent.“Did you get someone to do a background check on me while I was eating?”Jason was a little speechless. This fellow was very sensitive and he did not know whether he was a friend or foe.For the sake of security, he’d better get Kent and Conrad to check if he ever knew Peter, Esme, or Britney later on.“Tell me what you have found.” Marcus thought that his dark past had been hidden very well, and even Conrad was not able to find it.“I heard that when you were young…”“Shut up!” Marcus interrupted Jason. “So you are looking down on the fact that I was once a mentally ill patient? You feel that I am not qualified enough to treat others?”Jason was just about to explain when Marcus got up to leave.“Since that is the case, I will not force things. You can all find someone else!” Marcus waved his sleeve and left.Jason was stunned for a couple of seconds before quickly giving chase and grabbing the long sleeve of his long robe.
“I never thought that a young lady like her would have experienced so much.”Jason lowered his eyes, not saying a word.Marcus continued, “Since Mr. Maxwell has made her endure so much, why is she still with him? Why did she not divorce him?”Jason raised his eyes. “Fia never mentioned who the person she was secretly in love with was. Now that you’ve listened to everything I said, can you make a guess?” Marcus’ expression turned even more hideous and he drank a whole cup of water he poured for himself.He asked. “Is it Mr. Maxwell?”Jason replied, “Besides him, I cannot think of why she would be willing to allow herself to be in such a humbling position.”Marcus responded, “Love is really an especially complicated and hurtful thing. I don’t ever want to find a girlfriend in this life. Being single rocks!”Jason harrumphed lightly. “That is because you have yet to meet the right woman. When you meet her, things will not be up to you.”Marcus replied, “Then, I’ll pray every day t
Eileen had not had her phone for a long time. Today she learned fast and well, so her teacher rewarded her with ten minutes of screen time on her phone.She hugged her phone and squatted down in the corner. She switched it on and opened WhatsApp.Quite a few people sent messages, especially about work matters, from her colleagues in the country. And some from famous superstars, models, and other people as well.However, she did not wish to reply to those people.They were all just bombarding her with questions of where she went, what she did, whether she had offended anyone, and whether she was being shelved.All of them were casual acquaintances and she did not have much feelings toward them.She found “Fia” and clicked on it to read the message Fia sent.She wanted to make a call, but counting the time difference, it was already quite late and Fia would probably
“Sure.” Marcus quite admired those who could speak out on their own. Among the patients he treated, most of them relied on his hypnosis to be able to express the secrets in the bottom of their hearts.***Conrad couldn’t sit still and kept looking at the door of the study on the first floor, ready to take action any moment.As long as there were any large movements, he would be able to hear it and immediately rush over.Instead, an hour went by and the door of the study opened. Marcus walked out with a diary.“Mr. Maxwell, we are done for today. You may go to Mrs. Maxwell.”“How is she?” Conrad asked and ran in.Marcus shook his head and went to the kitchen to make food for himself.In the study.Fia sat on the sofa, staring into space without any expression on.“Fia?” Conrad did not dare to directly go forward and touch her, afraid of scaring her.Fia slowly raised her head to look at him, the corner of her lips lifted.“You’re here? Where did you come from?”Conrad felt
Fia was disturbed by the memories in her heart but slowly felt at peace because of Conrad’s words.Conrad asked gently, “Shall we go home?”“Alright.” She stretched out her hand. “However, I’m very tired. I can’t walk.”All the bad things were dug out and told to Marcus, that psychiatrist. To her, the person involved, it was kind of a cruelty. She really felt very tired.Conrad knelt before her. “Come, come on up. I’ll carry you home.”Fia did not bother to be courteous and climbed onto his back and said listlessly, “You have to carry me more steadily. Don’t drop me.”“Alright.” Conrad held her hips with both hands and every step he took was very stable.“Wait.” Marcus rushed to the door. “Use this. When you go back home, light one up each day. It would be better for her to soothe her mind.”As Conrad was holding her hips with both of his hands, he did not have a free hand.Fia accepted the thing that was tightly wrapped and asked, “What’s this?”“You’re pregnant. It’s not su
“Yeah. I just called Tyler. It is indeed like that.” Conrad’s emotions were heavy.He was worried about the nodules on her body. She lost control of her emotions easily and she was carrying identical twins.As a father, he had it easy, but as a mother, the entire pregnancy period would be even harder.“It’s fine,” Fia said shakily. “I can ask Mary. She has been through it and will share with me her experiences. Our babies will be born safe and sound.”Her tears fell. Although she encouraged herself through her words, her heart was in a mess.When Mary got pregnant, her situation was much better than hers.Now, her mammary glands had problems and her emotions also had problems. On top of that, she had enemies hiding in the dark gunning for her.“Conrad.” She hugged Conrad. “Promise me. This time my children will be fine! Nothing bad will happen!”“Alright.” Conrad hugged her. “Even if I have to give up my life, I will protect all of you.”“I believe you.” Fia kissed the vein on
