"Of course, with Joshua's current mental fortitude, very few things can actually trigger him."
Stella asked, "You said Joshua relapsed six months ago. I want to know what caused it."
Stella's questions were all getting to the heart of the matter.
Laurel looked at her and answered honestly, "Joshua has always had issues with insomnia. That time, the relapse was caused simply by mental exhaustion. With timely adjustments, recovery would have been easy.
Joshua probably ended his treatment early because he thought he'd be fine.
But..." Laurel looked at Stella, "your disappearance for the past month has caused irreversible damage to his mental state.
Not only did the last six months of treatment go down the drain, but his condition has actually worsened.
However, the fact that Joshua can still maintain his reason and lucidity—and is even willing to respect you and give you space—shows that his condition hasn't reached its worst stage.
With proper treatment, he should gradually recover.
But this will be a long process, and you'll need to have a great deal of patience and understanding, Ms. Cameron.
Having you by his side will not only shorten the treatment time but also enhance its effectiveness.
He's always willing to listen to you."
As she finished, a faint trace of loss and melancholy crossed Laurel Quinn's eyes.
Stella looked at Laurel, feeling a complicated mix of emotions.
A woman's intuition always seemed to be uncannily accurate.
In that moment, she could clearly sense that Laurel Quinn still had feelings for Joshua and genuinely cared for his well-being.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have made a special trip to the house to tell her all this.
