The Divorced Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 2224

Chapter 2224 Hallucination

Nicole did not know why she had such a big reaction to a back figure.

However, she had an intuition that she would regret it if she did not stop him.

The car braked suddenly.

Nicole pushed the door open, got out of the car, and looked back in the opposite direction. At this time, that man had already disappeared.

That limping figure left so quickly.

Nicole felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.

It was as if she was stripped of something important.

However, she could not understand what this feeling was.

"Miss, what's the matter?"

Luca got out of the car and looked around vigilantly. He thought that something happened!

Nicole looked at the empty street. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she shook her head.

"It's nothing.”

Her voice was low, and she sounded so lonely.

Was it her illusion?

For a moment, Nicole felt that the limping figure looked like Clayton.

However, Clayton was someone who cared most about his appearance and had never looked so wretched.

Nicole returned to the car and looked at her phone. The messages she sent were like stones that sunk into the sea.

She never got any response.

[I miss you so much. Why don't you come back?]

[Chatty beat up some kids at school. I think you have to come back and scold her!]

[I saw someone who looked like you today. I thought you came back!]

At night, everyone was already asleep.

Nicole returned to the room with a glass of milk.

She looked at the medicine in front of her with narrowed eyes.

Then, she took out her phone and called the psychiatrist.

The doctor was very responsible. Even if she called late at night, he did not show any displeasure.

"Ms. Stanton, you can’t sleep?"

Nicole paused. "Yeah."

"You told me a few days ago that you can fall asleep normally. Why can’t you sleep today? Is it because of some external

stimulus? Did you encounter anything today?”

Nicole blinked as she listened to the doctor's gentle voice.

She suddenly wanted to talk to someone, and an ethical psychiatrist was obviously a good confidant.

"I met someone who looked a lot like him, but it couldn’t be him. I think he might be watching me somewhere."

The psychiatrist was silent for a while. His voice became serious.

"How long did this last?"

"Since I came to France."

The psychiatrist exhaled slowly.

‘The change in the environment might have caused some mental rejection. That's why you tend to find a sense of dependence.This might not be a bad thing. Ms. Stanton, you should try to blend into the vibrant surroundings and reduce your chances of being alone so as to prevent your mind from running wild."

Nicole responded. The doctor was satisfied with her proactive behavior.

At least, Nicole was willing to get out of the inextricable pain.

She pursed her lips. "Are you saying that it’s just my hallucination? It would be great if I could confirm it. What if it's really him?"

The psychiatrist was silent for a moment before he spoke in a gentle voice.

"Ms. Stanton, you're thinking about a hypothetical situation. This person may not exist at all, and you may be pouring your thoughts about Mr. Sloan onto an insignificant passerby. This gives you a strong sense of anticipation. That's when you'll create an illusion that makes you think that he may be paying attention to you. But in fact, this is all in your mind. Is this person different from others?"

Nicole frowned slightly. Her blood felt stagnant.

"Mim."

"He probably looks and acts differently from others, right?"

The psychiatrist accurately described the person she saw today.

At that moment, she felt extremely vulnerable.

It seemed like a slight force could break her.

However, she did not dare to be vulnerable in front of anyone.

Nicole had seen Floyd stay up for days and nights because of her. She also saw Grant leaving Aida alone while he went back and forth to the office.

How could she use her own life to torture other people?

She opened WhatsApp and went into her private message with Clayton.

As always, there was no response.

She typed slowly as her eyes blurred with tears.

[How could you abandon me after I fell in love with you?]

He was such a gentle, attentive, and romantic person, so how could he do such a cruel thing?

Clayton filled her with hope for the future. She fantasized about how they would grow old together, but she could not wait for this day to come.

The pain that came from her heart spread all over her body.

They clearly agreed to be together forever, and they had no obstacles, but why did they still end up like this?

[If I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't have married you in the first place...]

After typing this, she immediately deleted it.

Her tears fell uncontrollably.

Her pain doubled under the influence of alcohol.

For a while, she cried so hard that she could not breathe, but she did not make a sound.

She endured the pain alone.

If Clayton really saw that message, he would be devastated.

It was a long night in this foreign land.

The man in the suit left such a strong impression on her because of his loneliness and lifelessness.

The emotions that she suppressed all day burst out uncontrollably.
