    Chapter 1993


    Aurora''s thoughts were swirling as she drove, ''Keegan''s amnesia was Jaylene''s doing, and she even


    fed him banned drugs. He had been pretending all along.'' She nced at Aldor in the rearview mirror,


    and her mind raced with questions, ''Had Aldor known about this? Were they underestimating her, or


    had they simply never taken her seriously?''


    As Aurora drove a bit too fast, Jaylene frowned ufortably. Worried she might vomit in the car,


    Aldor quickly grabbed a stic bag for her.


    In her drunken state, Jaylene leaned toward Aldor, whispering, "Keegan..."


    Aldor stiffened and corrected her gently, "Ms. Saun, you''re mistaken."


    But she persisted, her voice tinged with emotion, "Keegan, I''ve liked you since childhood. Do you feel


    the same?"


    Caught off guard, Aldor responded awkwardly, "I... suppose?"


    Jaylene''s smile brightened, "I knew it. We''ve known each other since we were kids. How could you not


    have feelings for me?"


    ying along, Aldor said, "Yes," to keep her calm.


    Gripping the steering wheel tighter, Aurora shot a quick nce at them through the rearview mirror.


    "Keegan... Keegan..." Jaylene murmured, suddenly embracing Aldor and nting a kiss on his cheek.


    Aurora''s frustration was palpable. Aldor, taken aback, recoiled, hitting his head on the window.


    Eventually, Jaylene drifted off to sleep.


    Ste asked with concern, "Aldor, are you alright?"


    Rubbing his head, Aldor reassured her, "I''m fine."


    Aurora braked sharply, unable to contain her irritation. This caused Jaylene''s head to bump against the


    seat.


    Keegan frowned and reprimanded, "Can you drive more carefully?"


    Aurora bit her lip, a storm of emotions churning within her before forcing herself to calm down.


    Soon, they arrived at another vi owned by Keegan. After they got Jaylene into the vi and into a


    room, another car arrived at the vi''s entrance. A mixed-race man, slightly older than Keegan, with a


    friendly and refined demeanor, got out. Keegan introduced him as York Cooper, a renowned hypnotist.


    Keegan spoke with York in a universally recognizednguage before sending the others out of the


    room.


    Ste protested, but Keegan exined, "Hypnosis requires a quiet environment, and you''re still dealing


    with morning sickness. What if you start vomiting at a critical moment?" 1


    Her objections were effectively silenced by his reasoning.


    York handed Keegan a ss of prepared water, instructing him to make Jaylene drink it. A skilled


    hypnotist did not necessarily need drugs. But with Jaylene''s involuntary hypnosis, mental resistance


    was likely, making the use of a mild drug advisable. 1


    While waiting for the drug to take effect, Keegan discussed with York about Raynard, who had


    previously hypnotized him. York was initially reluctant, agreeing toe only out of obligation.


    However, after learning that Jaylene''s machinations had hypnotized Keegan, York''s reluctance


    vanished.


    The strict standards of domestic medicine did not bind York. His approach was more flexible as long as


    he did not harm anyone.


    "It turns out Dr. Stone and you are from the same academic lineage. I checked his overseas credentials


    and found that he studied at the same university as you. You were even in the same cohort," Keegan
