Chapter 1110 The Hypnotist
“It's just a tonic for strengthening the body,” explained Ashlyn nonchalantly.
If members of the Oates family were to hear that, they would surely throw a tantrum out of jealousy.
To claim that such a precious medicine was a mere tonic for strengthening the body would be absolutely infuriating
to them.
“James, there's something I've been wanting to ask my sister directly, but I'm not sure if she would tell me.” Ashlyn
hesitated for a moment, her eyes fixed on James.
James paused and gave her a quizzical look. “What do you want to ask?”
“You probably know that Alice Chapman is my mother. When the Chapman family acknowledged me, Fae knew
about it as well. Why didn't she tell me then that she and my mother were best friends? That they were like
sisters?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe issue had always puzzled Ashlyn.
Zoe once mentioned that during her schooldays, she, Ashlyn's mother, and Fae were the best of friends.
Hence, she wondered why Fae didn't tell her that she and her mother, Alice, were good friends.
James had not expected Ashlyn to pose that question to him.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across his haggard face as he took a moment before speaking.
“Your mother, Alice, was an exceptional woman. She was the kind of person who could make others feel inferior or
even intensely self-conscious in her presence. Your sister... she had always been a close friend and confidant to
your mother. Your mother had also helped the two of us a lot.
It's just... Fae's not someone who is emotionally resilient. When she lost your mother, she spent her days crying,
even falling into depression for a while. Later on... I had someone hypnotize her. She can only remember that she
had a good friend who passed away but not that friend's name... unless someone deliberately provokes her or tries
to awaken her... In her memory, there's only a vague shadow of your mother. That's why... when the Chapman
family announced your relationship with them at the auction, she didn't react in any way. I'm sorry, Ashlyn... I don't
want to lose her. Even without the deep-seated memories of her friendship with your mother, her feelings for the
latter still remain. She would make the chicken soup your mother taught her and can't help but be kind to you. It
was my selfishness that...”
Ashlyn stared at James in shock.
Hypnosis... Mrs. Field was actually hypnotized, resulting in the loss of her memories of my mother. This... This is just
too terrifying. Doesn't that mean the hypnotist can take anyone's memories at will?
“Who is it? Who is the one who hypnotized her?”
Ashlyn's face turned pale. It was rare for her to be so perplexed, but the revelation was something she found hard
to accept.
Who exactly is the hypnotist?
James cleared his throat lightly. “I heard he has passed away. Back then, I had to put in quite an effort to find him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis name was Zachariah, and he a renowned master of hypnosis. If you search for him on Google, you can find
some news articles or stories about him.”
Ashlyn frowned as she endeavored to get to the bottom of the matter.
She had lost many of her childhood memories. Lucas claimed that she had saved him and his sister when they were
young, but she couldn't recall a single detail from that time.
Did I lose part of my childhood memories to hypnosis? Were they taken away from me? I must uncover the truth.
“What are you two whispering about over there?”
Just then, Wayne's voice suddenly filled the air. Ashlyn turned around and saw that Wayne and Logan had woken up
at some point and were now rubbing their eyes.
Ashlyn took James' temperature again, “Thirty-six point five. Finally, the fever has subsided.”
She rose from her chair, prepared some more medicine, and placed it on the table. “I've prepared enough
medicine for five days. Remember to take it after each meal. You should be feeling much better after that.”
A hint of emotion surfaced in James' eyes. “Ashlyn, I've done wrong by you.”
