Chapter 679: True Reaction
Kaliyah then walked back to her room without looking back.Bryan couldn''t help but burst intoughter.
"With these, the Packer Group will definitely be fine." Roman handed a ck USB drive to Ainsley,
exining its purpose.
"Ms.Easton, this USB drive contains the program I set up.Just insert it into Daniel''sputer, and you
will have ess to all the information on hisputer.However, you need to turn on hisputer."
Ainsley took the USB drive and ced it in her briefcase.
"Is that all I need todo?"
"Yes, once you insert the USB drive, a progress bar will appear.Once it reaches 100%, you can remove
it.I have implemented anti-tracking and anti-alert programs on the USB drive.I wish you all the best,"
Roman said in a deep voice.
Nodding, Ainsley got out of Roman''s car.
Manuel''s ck Cayenne was parked beside her, and she took the passenger seat, tightly gripping the
briefcase.She was going to treat Daniel Hume''s mental illness.
Manuel, being her assistant, naturally apanied her, not only for protection but also for another
important matter.
"Do you really have a way to handle that psychiatrist? He was hired by Daniel at a high price just to
guard against me.How could he possibly leave Daniel''s side?" Ainsley inquired.
A faint smile appeared on Manuel''s face.
"Nothing will go wrong as long as you''re here.Don''t worry.I understand the significance of this matter."
"Humor me."
"Some things require your genuine reaction.Speaking them out loud would diminish their authenticity,"
Manuel replied cryptically.
The Cayenne drove into Daniel''s vi, and upon seeing Manuel stepping out of the car, Aaden reached
out a hand, stopping him.
"Are you telling us to go back?"
"No, Ms.Easton is Mr.Hume''s psychiatrist, so she can go upstairs.But Mr.Gage..."
Ainsley cut him off coldly.
''''He is my assistant and should apany me.If you don''t let hime along, I''ll just go back."
Witnessing her determination, Aaden stepped aside and made a phone call to Daniel.
After receiving confirmation, he cleared the way for them.
Together, Ainsley and Manuel entered the mansion and followed Aaden into the study.
As expected, Daniel upied the main seat, apanied by the same psychiatrist as before.
Manuel greeted Daniel casually.
"Don''t you wee me?"
"Aisy, let''s get started,"
Daniel dismissed Manuel''s presence.
Ainsley began the treatment.
"Have you been experiencing nightmarestely?"
Daniel smiled and fixed his gaze on Ainsley.
"Yes, do you recall the dream I mentioned when I visited you for treatment at the University of
Washington? The dreams I''ve been having recently are rted to that."
"Recall the content of the dream and tell me," Ainsley urged.
As Daniel began recalling the dream, Manuel suddenly mmed the cup he was holding heavily on the
table, startling Daniel.
Suppressing his temper, Daniel questioned Manuel''s action.
"What are you doing?"
"Thave a strange feeling right now, and I need your help," Manuel said, directing his gaze at Ainsley.
Concerned by his pale face and unfathomable expression, Ainsley interrupted the therapy session and
approached Manuel.
"Are you feeling alright?"
"I suddenly felt a fire in my heart, as if there were countless voices in my ears telling me to run out, and
some shouting ‘kill him '', I couldn''t control myself."His voice was heavy and serious.
"Manuel, open your eyes wide! Take a good look at where you are!"
Manuel''s body swayed, almost on the verge of fainting.
Ainsleyforted him with concern, which of course irritated Daniel.N?velDrama.Org content.
In that moment, Daniel saw Manuel''s sly smile, concealed from the others, and instantly understood his
scheme.
Manuel was trying to divert Ainsley''s attention! That asshole! "Ainsley is here to treat me.If you want
treatment, you''ll have to wait in line,"
Daniel coldly asserted.
Ainsley, however, cast a cold nce at Daniel.
"Mr.Hume, this is an emergency.I have the right to choose whom to prioritize in such situations."
Upon hearing this, Daniel grew even angrier.He nced at the psychiatrist who had been silently
observing.
"You''re not the only psychiatrist here."
"This gentleman is also a renowned psychiatrist.He can treat Manuel if he wishes."
The doctor immediately stood up.
"Mr.Gage, I can treat you."
Ainsley was about to speak but noticed Manuel lightly touching her palm with his fingertips.She
immediately understood and calmly asked, ''''Can you really do it?"
"Of course, Ms.Easton.Although my skills are not as exceptional as yours, Iam among the best in
Seattle."
Eager to get rid of Manuel, Daniel instructed, Please take Mr.Gage out for treatment."
With Manuel causing trouble, he felt increasingly ufortable.
Manuel impatiently nced at the doctor and reluctantly followed him out of the study.
The study seemed much quieter with them gone.
Ainsley sat with Daniel on the sofa.
"Let''s continue the therapy here.The chair is ufortable."
Observing Ainsley''s absent-minded state, Daniel reminded her displeasedly, "I am your patient."
"Let''s continue.You only reached halfway before,"
Ainsley responded coldly.
After a moment of thought, Daniel resumed where he left off.
After finishing talking about his dream, Daniel stared at Ainsley, curious about her approach.
In reality, the dream he described was entirely fabricated.
Ainsley, however, proceeded tomunicate with him as if it were real, oblivious to the deception.
"I want you to close your eyes and imagine the person you saw in your dream, envision her hair
blowing against your face..."
A gentle voice lingered in Daniel''s ears, and as thest word fell, he finally fell into a deep sleep.
Ainsley continued speaking for a few more minutes, and gradually, Daniel''s arm slipped off the sofa,
indicating hisplete slumber.
Looking at Daniel sleeping peacefully, Ainsley tentatively called out, "Daniel? Are you asleep?"
There was no response, not even a flicker of his eyshes.
Ainsley retrieved the USB drive which given by Roman from her briefcase and approached Daniel''s
seat.She located theputer''s interface and inserted the USB drive.She turned on theputer but
a password prompt appeared on the screen.
It was evident that she didn''t know the password.
Meanwhile, Manuel kept the psychiatrist upied outside the study, ensuring that Daniel remained
hypnotized.
Who knows when he would wake up?
