Simon added, "Through hypnosis, I entered Miss Godfrey's mind and learned that she had selectively forgotten a memory. She doesn't even remember it herself. It's too painful for her, thus her brain chose to cope with it by forgetting it completely. However, this memory was triggered when she faced a similar situation during her kidnapping. When she was young, she was locked in a small room, in which there were several elderly men." Speaking of this, Simon's tone beclower. "Those men were p*dophiles. They were interested in young children, and they surrounded Miss Godfrey..." Tobias' expression changed drastically.
Simon had known Tobias for years, but he had never once seen him like this. He was always calm, even when facing critical situations.
Simon knew this was very cruel for Tobias to hear, but he had to know the truth.
Natalie's memory was triggered by the accident this time, which meant it could possibly happen again in the future. Therefore, only by telling Tobias could he avoid such incidents from happening again and be warier.
"What happened after that?" Tobias finally choked out a word after a long while.
His voice was so soft that it could barely be heard.
"Miss Godfrey didn't continue on. She fell unconscious again. But don't worry about that, Tobias. Her cerebral cortex has been stimulated again. I think she is going to wake up soon." After a moment of silence.
Tobias looked at Simon, "She won't remember these things after she wakes up, will she?" Simon shook his head, "No, unless she receives another trigger. This is why I'm telling you. In the future, you must be careful. You have to make sure Miss Godfrey isn't put in another similar situation, like being kidnapped or being surrounded by strange men. That's the only way to prevent her from being stimulated." Tobias' eyebrows furrowed, "I see." After a while, he suddenly opened his mouth again. "There's one more thing, Simon. If she'd been assaulted before, how did she lose her virginity to me?" A look of surprise flashed across Simon's eyes. "Are you sure?" "I'm sure." Even if the blood was fake, Natalie's tightness could not be faked. Only virgins could feel as tight as she did.
A flicker of doubt flashed through Simon's eyes.
"Could it be that Miss Godfrey was not s*xually assaulted?" Simon muttered.
After he said that, he shook his head subconsciously. "If so, why else would she have been so severely traumatized?" Tobias suddenly thought of something.
He remembered the scars on Natalie's hips.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCould it be? Those men did not r*pe Natalie, but they left the scars on her hips.
Tobias' heart suddenly tightened.
He looked at Simon and slowly spoke. Sear*ch the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
He never meant to tell Simon something so private, but for the sake of Natalie's situation, he had to.
Simon subconsciously denied Tobias' guess. "Tobias, Miss Godfrey's scars were most likely left by those men as well. There are speople with such kinks after all, to abuse children s*xually. However, I don't think that alone would have made her as traumatized as she was, to the point where her brain chose to forget that memory." He suddenly stopped talking and fell into a deep thought.
Tobias said that Natalie gave him her first time.
He believed in Tobias' judgment. It must be true if he had said so.
If Natalie had not been r*ped, what on earth could have caused her to have such a huge reaction? Simon had no clue.
After a while, he shook his head, "Tobias, perhaps the only way to find out is by questioning those men all those years ago. I can't figure out what happened to Miss Godfrey." Tobias' gaze was dark, like a boundless ocean.
When he saw the scars on Natalie's hips and heard her mentioning the matter previously, he had thought that something was wrong.
At that time, he sent someone to search for Natalie's old neighbors.
However, it was such a long tago. Her old residential area had already been demolished. It would be hard to find those people. Now that things were more serious than he had imagined, Tobias was more determined than ever to dig up the truth.
Tobias patted Simon on the shoulder, "Simon, thank you for your hard work." "Not a problem," Simon replied.
They waited outside for Natalie to wake up.
During this period, Simon seemed to be emotional, "Tobias, I once thought you would marry..." "Don't talk about that," Tobias interrupted him straightaway.
He seemed to refuse to talk about this topic.
Simon did not continue.
He did not know Natalie well, but he could tell at a glance that she was not in the sleague as Tobias. Why did Tobias marry such a woman? And he had never heard of any news of Tobias' marriage. Where did she appear from? At the thought of this, Simon's gaze deepened.
This wife of his seemed to have much more going on behind the scenes.
However, in the current situation, it wasn't very appropriate for Simon to ask Tobias any questions.
After all, he could tell that Tobias was anxious. He had never seen Tobias so impatient before. Tobias had really fallen for this girl.
At noon, a nurse went in to measure Natalie's temperature, doing the daily routines.
The nurse found that Natalie's eyelashes were trembling. e trembling slightly, and her fingers were moving slowly.
She quickly went out to tell Tobias and Simon. Although Natalie was in a coma, Simon mentioned that it would be best to give her a relatively quiet environment, thus, he and Tobias had been waiting outside. Tobias strode in immediately.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSimon followed suit, and he could clearly see that Tobias' footsteps were a little hurried.
In the ward, just as the nurse had described, Natalie's eyelashes were trembling and her tight fist had stretched out wide.
Simon let out a huge sigh of relief.
He looked at Tobias with a grin, "Tobias, she's fine now. Don't worry." Speaking of this, he paused and apologized, "I should stay here and wait for her to wake up, but you know that I am too busy." Tobias nodded, "It's kind enough of you to call the way here." After bidding farewell to Tobias, Simon left in a hurry.
He had important research in the States to study on.
Tobias wanted himself to be the first thing Natalie saw when she woke up, hoping that she could feel more at ease. He sat by Natalie's bed and waited for her to return to reality.
Natalie had gone back to her childhood. At that time, she was still very young. She wore a pink puffy dress, just like a little princess.
In her memory, she had never worn such a beautiful princess dress.
She lived in an exquisite european-centric room.
She was the only one in there.
One day, Natalie found that her doll was missing, and she went looking for it everywhere.
Someone told her that the doll was buried outside.
So, Natalie walked out.
She walked for a long distance and eventually cacross a mud pit.
