Chapter 556


    Ariah was stunned. "How was I looking at him any different?"


    "I can''t describe it exactly, but it''s just different from how you look at other men. There was


    gentleness and dependence in your eyes."


    Ariah was dumbfounded for a moment. So this was how she viewed Jimmy in the eyes of others.


    She never realized that until now.


    What a surprising find.


    Meanwhile, the assistant''s face was full of excitement. "Dr. Myers, why don''t we all have a get-


    together sometime and you can take your husband out so we can meet him?"


    Hearing that, Ariah smiled and said lightly, "Well, we''ve divorced already. I''m afraid you guys won''t


    get to meet him."


    Besides, Jimmy was giving her a cold treatment now. He didn''t even bother to answer her call this


    morning.


    Hearing Ariah''sughter, the assistant was shocked to learn that.


    She couldn''t keep up with the plot twist at all.


    It was just too much for her heart to bear it!


    Seeing the expression on the assistant''s face, which reflected her inner thoughts, Ariah couldn''t


    help butugh and patted her on the shoulder before going into her office.


    In the office, Kobi and Anna had already begun the session. When they heard hering in, they


    both turned to look at her.


    "Don''t mind about me. Please continue." Ariah went straight to her office desk.


    Kobi''s gaze was fixed on her, watching her graceful figure under the white coat, her slender waist,


    and her long legs... Gulping, he then forced himself to look away.


    Ariah didn''t notice his gaze, but Anna, who was sitting opposite him, saw his expression clearly.


    And she was slightly surprised. This man was obviously interested in Ariah. How could Ariah not


    know about it?


    Most importantly, Anna saw the strong desire to conquer Ariah in his eyes...


    Did this man not know that Ariah was already married to Jimmy? She kinda felt sorry for him


    because Jimmy was also very possessive of Ariah. If he knew that this man was interested in Ariah,


    this man could be in bad luck.


    However, if this man knew that Ariah was married and yet he was still fantasizing about her, he was


    very daring then...


    "Miss Anna?" Kobi''s voice was light and clear.


    Anna soon came to her senses. "Yes?"

    "I''m clear about your situation now. If you don''t mind, we can start the treatment right away."


    "Right now?" Ariah was surprised.


    Kobi gave her a reassuring smile. "Don''t worry. I''ve treated many cases like this abroad."


    Hearing that, Anna was overjoyed. "So, will I be able to get rid of the noises in my head after that?"


    Those voices pestered her day and night. If it went on like this, she would go crazy.


    "Well, I can''t promise you that it will work perfectly, but we can try." Saying that, he turned to Ariah


    and asked, "Do you have a private room here?"


    Ariah knew that he needed to be alone with the patient, so she quickly got up and said, "It''s right


    next door. I''ll take you there."


    Ariah wasn''t worried about Anna''s illness at all since it was Kobi who treated her. Actually, Ariah


    could also give it a try, but she wasn''t quite confident, so it was best for Kobi to do it.


    Upon waiting for about half an hour, Kobi and Anna came out of the treatment room.


    Besides having a paleplexion and a dazed mind, Anna looked quite alright.


    "How was it?" Ariah walked towards them, looked at Anna, then asked Kobi in a low voice, "Why is


    she still in a trance?"


    Kobi reassured her, "The treatment is tiring for her mentally, but she''ll be fine after she takes some


    rest." With a pause, he then added, "Do you know what kind of tranquilizers to prescribe for her?"


    "Yep." Ariah nodded. "Leave it to me. But since she''s still in a trance, I''ll get my assistant to go down


    with her to get the medicine."


    "Sure, I trust you in that."


    Ariah just smiled with embarrassment. "Thank you foring today though."


    "If you really want to thank me, then you can treat me to a meal."


    "No problem." Ariah nodded. "Take Emily with you as well. I''ll take you both to have a hot pot


    tonight. Emily seems to like it a lot.


    Instantly, Kobi was taken aback.


    Was Ariah ying dumb? Couldn''t she understand what he meant? He wanted to spend some time


    alone with her.


    Looking at her, he then changed the topic. "Anyway, how did it gost night with Jimmy? Did he


    make things difficult for you when you guys got home? You know, I can exin if you need."


    Ariah didn''t want Kobi to interfere in her and Jimmy''s business, so she just said, "Nah, he didn''t


    make things difficult for me. I''ve already told him everything that happened between you and me,


    and he totally understood."


    Of course, he did not! Jimmy was petty.


    Although sheined about that silently, she still remained cool. "Anyway, he''s the kind who got


    angry easily, but his temper would go away quickly as well. I''m sorry aboutst night though. Do you


    want the nurse to take a look at your wound?"


    The wound on his face was not serious. It was just the corner of his mouth that was a little bruised.


    Kobi looked at her and did not speak for a long time.


    Feeling a little embarrassed by his gaze, Ariah asked, "What''s wrong?"


    "Nothing." Kobi shook his head, but inside, he knew that Ariah was trying to distance herself from


    him.


    Afterst night, she definitely wouldn''t want to be alone with him again. Although she promised to


    treat him to dinner, she suggested taking Emily


    along.


    Kobi gathered his thoughts then said, "Alright, I''ll head back now. I''ll call you tonight."


    "Sure, see youter."


    Ariah waved her hand.


    Disappointed, Kobi turned around and left.


    Ariah had treated him like he was just some old acquaintance, which was far from what he had


    expected.


    Initially, he thought that after what had happenedst night, she would at least feel a little guilty and


    alert of him, but she didn''t. Instead, she even picked up his call this morning.


    Perhaps the eventst night was just an insignificant episode to her.


    But he would rather she acted with caution and alienation than how she was now. It was as if...


    things between them had ended already, and she had no more feelings for him anymore.


    Only when one had truly got over someone else, then would they act indifferently like she did...


    Meanwhile, at the police department—


    Ben and David had been behaving in a careful manner the whole day as they could sense the cold


    temperamenting from their captain.


    Ever since Jimmy hade to work in the morning, he had been keeping a straight face. No matter


    who looked for him, he would just answer impatiently. Clearly, he was in a bad mood, so no one


    really dared to get close to him.
