Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 840:

Marissa could barely contain her joy. She smiled as she pressed her index and middle fingers against his wrist to feel his pulse. She knew that if she hypnotized Paul and forced him to remember the past, it would also bring back the trauma of being kidnapped by that shady organization.

His health was fragile as it was, and she didn’t want to risk worsening it, so she wanted to check his health condition first.

Thankfully, Paul had been taking the MindEase Elixirs she gave him. He certainly looked much better than before. But that didn’t mean she could afford to be worry-free. After checking his pulse, Marissa explained the situation to Paul.

“Listen, Dad. I know that the MindEase Elixirs have helped a lot in strengthening your body, but I’m worried that you might remember something very disturbing during the hypnosis.

It could mess with your mental state all over again, and your body will suffer for it. Why don’t we focus on further improving your health for now? We can proceed with the hypnosis treatment later.”

Paul refused. “I’m all right; I can handle it.” It was his turn to insist on the hypnosis.

“I had no one before you came into my life—no one to care for, no one to protect, no one to make me stay. I had no reason to care about whether I lived or died. As you may know, that state of mind reduced me to the fragile old man that I was when you met me. But things are different now.

I have a wife and two daughters. I have a family that’s counting on me. You may be my weakness in this world, but you are my source of strength at the same time.

I’m willing to face the devil himself if it means being a good husband and father to you. I made up my mind. You need to trust me on this. No matter how terrible those memories are, I will face them head-on.”

Marissa swallowed the lump of emotion in her throat and nodded. “I understand.”

No matter what the skeptics think, love truly is the most powerful force in the world. Through love, Paul was determined to conquer anything, despite his weakened body.

“All right, then let’s go and grab some breakfast first,” Marissa said. “After that, I’ll set everything up for our hypnosis session.”

“Sounds good to me,” Paul replied.

No sooner had he said this than he jumped out of bed and rushed to freshen up. Elvis, who had approached the bed to assist Paul, ended up getting bumped aside when Paul zoomed past him.noveldrama

Elvis’s jaw dropped in disbelief at his boss’s sudden vigor. Paul looked younger and more alive than he had a few hours ago. Reconnecting with his daughter really did wonders for his health.

He had seen Paul struggle throughout the years, how his body deteriorated until he needed assistance to move around. Yet that very same man was now puttering about, just bursting with energy.

Elvis’s gaze drifted over to Marissa. She looked peaceful and content as she watched her father move around. Marissa could still remember the first time she had seen him.

Paul had been so weak that she was afraid he might collapse at any given moment. Even when talking, he couldn’t speak any more than a few words before he was coughing and gasping for air.

Any traces of that man were gone. Her father was embracing his new lease on life, and she couldn’t be happier.

Feeling Elvis’s eyes on her, Marissa turned to meet his gaze. Elvis suddenly realized he was being rude by staring at her so much. He bowed slightly in her direction. She was his boss’s biological daughter, and a legitimate heiress of his empire
