My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 726

Chapter 726 They Are Going To See Shawn

"Ezekiel was asking about my condition, and I couldn't tell him everything that happened in Bryxton was true because I was afraid it would shatter his spirit. So, I had to go along with his confusion and try to guide him, but what could I really do? Ezekiel is the most skilled psychologist. He knows more than I do. The reason he called me was just to confirm some facts. Ezekiel's mental state has been very unstable recently, Mrs. Xenos. He's in an unpredictable state at the moment. Try not to provoke him and don't talk too much to him. He can read people extremely well. You should try not to lie in front of him. Otherwise, you will find life very difficult due to his current state."

He was right. I had completely forgotten that Ezekiel could see through people's thoughts. I had made myself a fool in front of him all these days.

He could see through my lies with just a single glance after all.

But, he never exposed me.

Did he find it amusing?

My heart was overwhelmed with emotions, and for a moment, I didn't know what to say. I only asked, "How can we help him recover?"

"Guide him through this slowly. Don't rush it. Ezekiel is in a state of recovering himself as well, so it will take some time."

"How do we guide him?" I asked.

That was the million-dollar question.

"I don't know the specific way to guide him, Mrs. Xenos. But, patients like him need to be supported and recall the good memories they once cherished so that they can feel the warmth in life. Besides, we need to make him realize those memories he considered dreams are real!"

I understood what Edward meant, and I asked further, "So, we need to help him realize that those memories are real, but at the same time, don't push him too hard, right? Do you mean I need to recreate somehow past events of which he had deep impressions?"

"Yes. Make him doubt himself before he eventually realizes those things that happened in the past, and try to help him understand that they are not dreams but reality. The reason we can't rush is Ezekiel might not be able to handle all of those memories at once, and he might become even more easily agitated. It would bring more harm than benefit if that happens."

"I understand. I'll figure something out."

Andrew Cloud suddenly called me from outside my room after I ended the call with Edward, "Hey, little girl. Let's go."

I couldn't believe Andrew actually called me "little girl"!

We weren't even that close.

I opened the door and asked, "Where are we going?"

"To meet the person you want to meet."

The person I wanted to meet?

The person I wanted to meet the most was Shawn.

So, I asked excitedly, "Is it Shawn?"

Andrew replied with a smirk, "Take your guess."

"Are you teasing me?"

Andrew smiled without saying a word. He said after a while, "Look at how excited you are. It's Mike. He wants you to go and attend to him."

I let out a sigh as disappointment overwhelmed me. "I see."

I walked past him and went to Ezekiel's bedroom following that. He was still lying on the bed. I approached him and asked, "Do you need help to get up, Mr. Hastings?"

"Yes, and bring me a suit."

Ezekiel rarely wore suits.

But now, he specifically asked for one.

Is he going to meet someone?

"Of course, Mr. Hastings."

I helped him put on a suit and tie following that. He asked in a low voice when he noticed how familiar I was with that, "Do you often serve people?"

He could tell if I was telling the truth as soon as I opened my mouth.

So, there was no reason to hide anything from him.

"Yes, I have served others."

I served Shawn.

Thankfully, he didn't inquire further and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

I left the room and stood by the door after that. Andrew was also there, looking at me with his arms crossed. I asked, "What's the matter?"

He seemed puzzled as he replied, "You're not afraid of me at all."

I retorted, "Why should I be afraid of you?"

"I know your secret. Aren't you afraid that I will tell Mike? Aren't you supposed to be afraid of me? How can you act so indifferent, Ms. Renee Felix?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I answered with a disdainful look, "You would have done it a long time ago if you wanted to expose me. Now, we share the same goal which is to help Ezekiel with his personality."

"Indeed. He's been going through a lot of pain lately."

Andrew could sense Ezekiel's suffering.

He genuinely cared about Ezekiel.

I pretended not to notice that, and I asked, "Is that so?"

"He's been in an extremely terrible mood recently."

I continued asking, "Where is he going?"

"Why? What are you curious about?"

"You mentioned taking me to see the person I want to meet..."

Andrew smiled. "You're a clever one. That's what I said. You'll get to meet the person you've been wanting to see soon."

Neither of us mentioned Shawn's name.

But, I knew it was him.

Ezekiel was going to meet Shawn soon!

I asked, "Is he planning to take me with him?"

"How would I know? I'll try later."

I asked in a hushed voice, "How will you try?"

Just then, the door of the bedroom was suddenly opened, and I saw Ezekiel hadn't touched the breakfast I prepared.

He only instructed Andrew, "Let's go."

I abruptly looked at Andrew with hopeful eyes, and he walked to Ezekiel's side before asking, "Do you want to take a servant with you?"

However, Ezekiel answered, "No need."

Andrew turned his head and looked at me as a signal that he had tried his best.

I only followed Ezekiel, and I urgently called out just as he was about to leave the living room downstairs, "Mr. Hastings."

Ezekiel turned his head and looked at me. "What is it?"
