“What? Too afraid to talk? Are you afraid because my stake is too big?”
“Haha! Don’t feel depressed because you can’t win the five million, let alone cure her disease within an hour!”
Jack looked at Nathan disdainfully and sneered, “You are a liar. Hechland is full of liars like you!”
Nathan replied calmly, “No… I just felt weird because a random guy suddenly wanted to give me five million dollars.”
As soon as he said this, everyone present froze. Although his tone was calm, his words were extremely annoying and could make anyone furious.
Jack said coldly, “Okay, prove to me you’re capable of winning my money! You have to cure Ms. Hopp in an hour!”
He had been studying psychology for many years and had treated countless patients with various mental illnesses It was rare to see a patient like Angelina. Moreover, it would take a long time and effort to cure such an illness, but Nathan said he only needed one hour He would never believe such a thing would actually happen.
“Master Evans, do you…” Gerard cleared his throat and asked.
“Okay, then do as he said!” Nathan shrugged and seemed indifferent.
“If I win, I will take that five million. If I lose, I’ll kneel to him and admit that I’m a liar.”
Jack sneered, “It can’t be that simple. If you lose, you also have to admit you’re a liar in the newspapers and let the whole world know about it!”
Nathan snapped his fingers and said, “That’s a deal. I’ll go to treat Ms. Hopp immediately, and Mr. Hopp will be the witness of this bet. I’ll see you in one hour.”
“Okay!” Gerard agreed without hesitation.
Natasha looked at Nathan coldly. She didn’t believe Nathan could handle what Jack failed to do. And she thought Nathan agreed to this bet so quickly, probably because he had no other choice and could only keep being pretentious.
“I’m going to treat Ms. Hopp’s disease now. Don’t disturb me within an hour. I’ll come out after the treatment,” Nathan said calmly
“No problem!” Gerard quickly agreed.
Carl was a little hesitant. After all, it was somewhat inappropriate for Nathan to stay alone in the same room with his younger sister. However, he didn’t dare to say anything more, fearing that Nathan would turn around and leave.
“Humph! So pretentious!” Jack sneered.
After an hour, Nathan’s true colors would be revealed!
After Nathan walked into the room, he closed the curtains and looked at Angelina, who was in a daze.
“Do you often have nightmares recently? You dreamt of your mother, and she always blamed you. That’s why you wanted to suicide, right?”
Angelina looked up and glanced at Nathan. Her face was haggard, and her hair was messy.
“How did you know?” Angelina hadn’t spoken for a long time, and she stuttered when she spoke.
“Someone is secretly cursing you… Besides, you need to know that every parent wants their children to live happily,” Nathan sighed.
Angelina fell silent and curled up while hugging her knees.
“That little prison guard is probably staring at Ms. Hopp. He knows nothing about psychology?” Jack sneered in disdain.
Tick, tick…
Time passed quickly, and it was almost an hour.
Angelina was still asleep in bed, but she couldn’t sleep peacefully. She started to cry as if she had dreamed of something.
“Mom, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t be willful at that time…” She was talking in sleep while crying.
Nathan checked the time. When an hour was up, he walked to the window and opened the curtains.
The dazzling sunlight shone into the room, and Angelina was also awakened by the sunlight. When she woke up in a daze, her face was covered in tears.
“Now, do you feel much better?” Nathan turned to ask her.
“Thank you…” Angelina looked at Nathan, and she finally felt relieved.
She now seemed like a completely different person.
“You’re welcome,” Nathan smiled and said lightly.
At this time, Gerard opened the door.
Jack was the first one to rush in, he sneered, “An hour is up. Kneel!”
