Hearing Taylor's diagnosis, Louis breathed a sigh of relief.
After carefully tucking Scott into bed, he ushered Taylor out of the room quietly and led her to his study upstairs.
"I triggered Scott's violent reaction earlier when I mentioned Bill's name during our hypnosis session. Bill could play an important role in Scott's condition." Sitting on the sofa in Louis' study, Taylor took a sip of her coffee. Louis was standing a few feet away with his back to her. "It's also possible that Scott was just afraid of the man in black in his dream. I just happened to mention Bill's name at that time," she added.
"What should we do now?" Louis turned around, leaned against the window, and looked at Taylor with worried eyes.
Scott had not answered Taylor when she had asked him who that man was in his dream during the session, so she could not completely determine whether Bill was the culprit.
"Let's finish the treatment first, but at a slow pace. With Scott's current physical and mental condition, he's going to do worse if we forcefully hypnotize him."
A few moments of silence followed after that, and then Taylor realized that Louis had been watching her intently.
She looked away as she felt her heart skip a beat. Louis did not stop staring.
He kept his eyes fixed on Taylor. She was wearing a business suit but not in the traditional black color. It was a pink suit, which made her even more attractive than she already was.
The high waist of the pants showed off her thin waist perfectly. Her long legs looked beautiful and slender even as she sat down.
Taylor tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear. Louis found the gesture sexy and seductive.
She had no idea that every move she made captured his attention.
Louis swallowed and tried to shake off his fantasies. He wondered why he became so weak and distracted around Taylor.
"Is there another way besides hypnosis?" Louis asked. He went to sit opposite Taylor.
"Let's try hypnosis first. We'll find another way if it doesn't work," Taylor answered after thinking for a while.
"All right. Thank you. I'll ask my assistant to transfer your fee to your account."
"Okay. Thank you, Mr. Ke." Taylor smiled politely at Louis.
She did not try to refuse his payment. After all, she had come at a professional capacity.
On the other side...
Ever since Carlos had had the key taken out of his stomach, he had always felt somewhat uncomfortable.
The family doctor had checked on him and said that he was doing fine. He said that the key had done some damage in his stomach and that it would take time to completely heal.
Carlos returned home as soon as he could. It was not appropriate for him to stay in Jacob's house.
As soon as Cherish found out that Carlos had gone home, she immediately went to pack up her bags.
Perrin stood there and watched his sister clumsily fling clothes into a suitcase, feeling a little embarrassed and helpless. 'When did my sister become like this? I suppose I can't stop her now, ' he thought.
