Bridger smiled faintly. “This is the best way.”
Before that, Patrick had paid Bridger to help erase Zayden's memories of Gwendolyn.
Bridger had never conducted that procedure before. Nonetheless, he had studied psychology and specialized in hypnosis. As such, he was confident that he could do that.
Glancing at Zayden, Gwendolyn saw the worried expression on his face.
Gwendolyn had been reading psychology books lately. As such, she was aware of the risks of hypnotherapy. Its success rate was still uncertain.
“Dr. Yack, how about we skip the hypnotherapy today? We can try to talk to him and observe his condition first.”
Meanwhile, Zayden felt something was off as well. Last time, the doctor who came was a different person. It's his first time here today, but why is he insisting to conduct the hypnotherapy on me?
Hearing that, Bridger did not insist anymore. “Okay. I wasn't around last time. It was my employee who came to treat Mr. Surrington. Mrs. Surrington looked for me and asked me to come over today. As you suggested, I'll have a chat with Mr. Surrington and put him under observation today.”
Gwendolyn took Zayden to the bedroom. It was inconvenient for her to be there. Before she left, she comforted, “Zayden, I'll wait outside the door. Call me if there's anything.”
Zayden relaxed his body while he lay down in his bed.
“Okay,” he mumbled.
Gwendolyn nodded at Bridger, left the bedroom, and shut the door.
Stepping outside, she leaned against the wall. As she looked up, she felt a little exhausted.
Gwendolyn heaved a heavy breath and started praying.
“Dear God, please heal Zayden and let him recover soon! He's a good person. Please don't make him go blind.”
Zayden won't be suffering mentally as long as his eyes are fine. With that, he will be the same as before, being warm and affectionate to the people around him.
At the same time, Angeline walked toward her and asked, “Have they started?”
She was all smiles, recalling what had happened on the balcony. Suzanne is such a lovely girl. How compliant of her to obey my words? I believe that she will be a good servant to serve Zay wholeheartedly.
“Yes,” Gwendolyn replied and glanced at her watch.
“Mrs. Surrington, I think it will take about one hour for the session. How about you go and have a rest first? I'll ask someone to inform you once it's over.”
As Angeline stared at Gwendolyn, there was a trace of gentleness in her eyes. This girl is good- looking, and she's from a good family too. However, she's ill-fated for getting pregnant at such a young age. Without her three children, I think I'll gladly accept her.
“Okay. I'll get some rest in the guest room. Ask the housekeeper to look for me there.”
With that, she touched Gwendolyn on her cheek lightly. “Thank you for all your effort.”
If she hadn't been coming here every day, Zay wouldn't have cooperated so well. I appreciate her effort a lot. I have to treat her well in the future.
“You're welcome. I will do anything for him to recover.”
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Zayden put a gun to Bridger's head and asked, “Who asked you to come?”
It was illegal to use a gun in Astoria. Seeing Zayden's gun, Bridger was utterly terrified. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
With the gun pointed at his temple, all he could feel was the coldness of the gun muzzle.
He raised his hands and begged, “Mr. Surrington, please spare me!”
I agreed to hypnotize him for money, but now I'm putting my life in danger before I start anything!
Zayden smirked aloofly. “Who sent you here? Be honest with me, or I'll kill you immediately! Believe it or not, no one will find out about your dead body in a place like Dragonhill!”
Hearing his words, Bridger broke into a cold sweat. He's not blind! Now that I learned about his secret, Zayden won't go easy on me! Besides, Dragonhill is a mysterious place. I've heard strange stories back then when they built the mansion here. To them, it's normal for people to die here. However, I don't wish to die here at all!
