Chapter 411 She Does Not Regret It

She put on a beaming smile and loosened up, which was very rare. "Ainsley, you had more important things to do."

Manuel looked at Serina worriedly. He knew that his sister's condition was serious and it had probably gotten worse after what happened that day.

'Mr. Gage, the doctor said that you only have some flesh wounds. You've been in the hospital for two days. Time to leave, eh?" she teased.

She knew what Manuel was up to. He just wanted to take the chance to spend more time with her.

Manuel did not put it on the table, but she didn't want to play along.

No matter what, she wanted Manuel to understand that it would never be the same again between them.

’Is Ms. Easton always so cold and heartless to patients?" Manuel teased.

Ainsley looked him up and down for a few minutes before she said, "I can't see anything that says you need a doctor."

Manuel said seriously, "It seems that you have forgotten that I am still your patient."

"Did you have nightmares these past two days?"

Manuel thought for a moment. 'I did last night."

Ainsley had not forgotten her duty. Manuel was her patient, so she would do her best to treat him.

She looked at Serina and pointed at the small sofa by the window. "Serina, sit there and watch us."

Serina sat down there obediently. "Okay."

Ainsley helped raise Manuel's bed so he could sit up slightly. "Mr. Gage, if you don't mind, I will hypnotize you."

In response to her words, Manuel slowly relaxed his body. He opened his eyes and looked at the pocket watch that Ainsley took out. His eyes followed the swinging watch.

In fact, at Ainsley's level, she didn’t need to use the pocket watch to hypnotize her patients. But the pocket watch marked the beginning of the session for the patients.

"Relax, close your eyes. Imagine yourself in a dream. You see a woman running on the road.

"There is a car not far ahead that seems to be waiting for her. She desperately tries to get to that car."

Manuel started to frown, but Ainsley did not stop. "She turns to look at the sides of the road from time to time, afraid that a car would hit her. Then what do you see?"

She asked Manuel a question. At this moment, he was having the same dream as earlier.

His voice was slightly trembling. "She hasn’t gotten to the car yet. A truck rushes over. The truck goes toward her. No, no!"

Manuel's forehead was covered in a cold sweat. He unconsciously grasped Ainsley's hand.

"Don't be afraid. The car missed her and didn't run into that woman. It hit a tree instead. The head of the truck was broken, but the woman was fine.

She got into the car safe and sound."

"No, it's not like that. It hit her! It hit her!"

Ainsley's eyes darkened. People under hypnosis rarely went against the hypnotist.

She continued in a heavier tone, "No, you are wrong. The car didn't hit her. That woman even smiled at you. Can you hear what she said to you?"

His "no" became quieter and quieter until it completely disappeared.

'She said that she didn't regret it.’

Ainsley opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. Finally, Manuel fell asleep.

When Manuel was sleeping, the nurse came over to change his dressings and said that he could be discharged today.

'Ainsley, Manuel can leave now." Serina yawned.
