Chapter 240 Both of them would not have crossed paths with each other. Xander was younger than us as well, so they could not possibly be from the suniversity.
Before Xander was able to answer, Jercforward, tugged at me, and said, "We met each other by chance when we were studying. Let's head for lunch. I'm starving." It was obvious that he was trying to hide something. He hung out withall day when he was studying. I never saw him being close with someone outside of the university.
Although I was rather skeptical about it, it was his private matter, after all. It would be better fornot to ask so many questions about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe four of us ate lunch together. Xander needed to leave earlier as he had something else to do. Cecilia said she was feeling uncomfortable, hence she went back hto sleep.
This left justand Jerome. He looked atand asked, "Shall we stay for a chat?" I nodded my head.
"There's a coffee shop opposite here. Let's go there!" Then, he stood up. I followed behind him.
We reached the coffee shop and ordered our drinks. I was holding onto the cup. I hesitated for a while, not knowing what I was supposed to say. Although Jerwas a doctor, he was a man, after all.
Jerlooked atquietly. It took him stto speak. "I'm your doctor. If it's not easy for you to talk t oabout it, then it'll be pointless for you to continue consultingabout your illness." He was right. I mustered my courage and told him the reason for my change in attitude and demeanor. While Jerwas working, he would put away his typical careless and casual attitude. He would quietly listen to me. He then spoke in a serious tone. "Indeed, it's caused by psychological barriers. This can't be cured with medications. The only way is to undo the knot in your heart." I knew that too. The problem was, how could I undo that knot? By removing that memory from my brain? It was impossible.
"There's actually a way. A broken heart needs mending. Theo is your heart's cure. Tell him and let him help you undo the knot in your heart. Both of you can solve this together." "I clooking for you because I don't want him to know about this." I had been concealing this matter for a long time. I had never thought of telling him.
"I don't understand what you're taking into account here. You were a victim from the beginning till the end in this matter. And it was caused by Theo. He has the right to know about it." Jerraised his voice, his expression was slightly gloomy.
He paused for a moment and continued, "If you want to solve this problem, you'll have to let him know.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou're suffering from mysophobia, and you can't get over your psychological barriers. Every tyou make out with him, it's a conditioned reflex that your brain will reject him." Jerome's words were straightforward, yet they were true. I was feeling a little awkward and said in a soft voice, "It wasn't like that back then." "That's because you never witnessed it directly." Jerwent straight to the point.
"Although you knew about his relationship with Cindy back then, you've been protecting yourself. You refused to think or believe it.
"But when you heard that recording, it caused you to imagine the sscene countless times. Those M images wilPalways linger in your brain. Then, your brain will form a conditioned reflex. That's why you're so resistant to make out with him." "Which means that I'm not actually turning cold? It's only with him?" I had always thought it was because of him that I had completely lost the ability to do it.
"Do you need to test this?" He gavean evil grin.
I glared at him and turned my head to look outside the window. I was feeling a little down it seemed that no this issue could not be solved any tsoon. I might as well not think about it. I turned my head back and asked him, "When are you leaving?" "Soon. I'll have to confirm the first stage of the treatment for your condition first. Otherwise, you won't be able to wait until I cback."
I had already said what I was supposed to say. After this, he had to cup with a treatment plan for me. I picked up the cup and finished drinking the juice. Taking out my car key, I handed it to him. "You're familiar with the area here. Go and take a leisurely drive." "What? I cfrom far away but you and Cecilia are both not keepingcompany. It's not fun strolling alone!" He felt wronged and unhappy.
