Chapter 114
"Mrs. Meyer, the human brain is an amazing thing, but at the same time it''s pretty fragile, it takes a
long time to heal from an injury. You were injured in a car ident before, and it''s a miracle you’re
recovered as much as right now. There are things I don''t know how to exin to you, but all I can
tell is that everyone has their own psychological bottom line, a line you can''t cross. And obviously,
we''ve crossed it this time. The only thing we can do for you now is conservative treatment; let
nature take its course. You shouldn''t receive any more psychological treatments. Anyway, you have
only lost some of your memories, and it doesn''t affect your daily life. Plus, the memories you have
suppressed are pretty messed up, forcing you to remember could lead to unpredictable dangers,"
Andrew exined.
Ines couldn''t help but ask, "What are the chances of danger?"
"Seventy percent." Andrew said.
Leaving the hospital, Ines was a bit bummed out. At first, she didn''t care much about the part of her
memory that was missing. But things that happenedter made her desperate to solve the mystery
of the car ident.
"I wouldn''t joke about your health, Izzy. Andrew is the best in the psychological field, listening to him
won''t lead you astray. I''ll figure out the truth about that night, no matter how long it takes or how
much effort I have to put in." Ethan said.
"Alright," Ines responded, but she couldn''t hide her disappointment.

When they got home, it was around noon and Ines, feeling tired, decided to take a nap.
Ethan didn''t head straight to the office, but stayed in the study to work. Not long after he sat down,
he heard a scream of fear and panic from the bedroom.
Ethan''s heart tightened, and he rushed to the bedroom. He found Ines curled up in pain, her
eyebrows furrowed tightly and her face covered in sweat. She was trembling uncontrobly.
"Izzy, wake up. You''re having a nightmare, everything will be okay when you wake up," Ethan shook
Ines forcefully. But Ines didn''t respond, her body was stiff and tense. Ethan climbed onto the bed
and held her in his arms, kissing her face and patting her back rhythmically. His voice, soothing and
calming, repeated, "Izzy, it''s Ethan. Don''t be scared, I''m here. Nobody''s going to hurt you."
After a while, Ines finally calmed down. Her lips were moving, and as Ethan put his ear next to her
mouth, he heard her mutter over and over again, "Save me."
Ethan felt a pang in his heart. It seemed that the car ident from years ago had deeply
traumatized her.
Under Ethan''sforting, Ines gradually rxed, and the creases on her forehead smoothed out.
Ethan stayed with her for a while until she waspletely calm before he went to his study to call
Andrew.
"You''re saying she started having nightmares the moment she got home?" Andrew somewhat
disbelieved.
"Yes, she said she was tired and went to take a nap, but not long after she fell asleep, she started
having nightmares.” Ethan said.
“I''ve never seen a case like Izzy''s. During hypnosis, I found that her memories seemed to be
completely blocked. But you''re saying that she''s having nightmares, which means today''s hypnosis
triggered some of her memories. These aren''t simple dreams; they''re probably rted to her
missing memories. Don''t try to probe into her memories when she''s dreaming, you might cause her
brain to suffer a second trauma. It''s fine when she wakes up, though I doubt she''ll remember
much." Andrews said.
Ethan felt a chill run down his spine. He was d that he had only tried to soothe her fear earlier
and had forgotten to ask her who she was calling to save her. "So, you''re saying there''s a chance
for her to recover her memories?"
"Yes, it''s just a matter of time. It could be a month, a decade, or even two decades. She needs a
trigger. Situations like this may happen again in the future, but it''s normal, so don''t worry too much."
Andrews exined.
After hanging up, Ethan turned around to find Ines standing at the door, one hand on her stomach,
looking a bit under the weather.
"Izzy, what''s wrong?" Ethan asked.
"Don''t worry, it''s probably because I''ve been emotionaltely, my belly''s a bit upset," Ines blushed
slightly.
Ethan paused for a moment, then realized she was talking about her period. He smiled slightly,
walked over and pinched her cheek, "Go back to the bedroom and wait for me, I''ll make you hot
tea."
Ines nodded lightly and then went back to bed.
When Ethan returned to the bedroom, he saw Ines curled up in bed, like a little shrimp.
He couldn''t help but smile, "Izzy, have a drink before you sleep."
Ines crawled out of bed and took the hot tea from Ethan.
Ethan, still concerned, went to find a thermometer.
"Mr. Meyer, I''m on my period, not running a fever, why are you taking my temperature?" Ines asked.
"You look a little off." Ethan said.
Ines shook her head, "I''m fine, probably just sweaty from sleeping too long. I feel all sticky and
ufortable."
Ethan sat on the edge of the bed, brushed her hair back from her forehead and asked, "Izzy, did
you have a nightmare?"
"How did you know?" Ines asked.
"Did you remember anything from your dream?" Ethan asked tentatively.
Ines shook her head, thought for a while but still couldn''t remember, "I don''t remember. I just
vaguely felt a moment of breathlessness; it was terrible."
Ethan ruffled her hair, "If you can''t remember, then forget it. I asked Andrew earlier and he said it''s a
good sign that you started having nightmares, it means there''s a chance your memory coulde
back. Just take it slow and you''ll remember."
Ines'' eyes lit up, hope reignited in her heart, "Really?"
"That''s what Andrew told me." Ethan said.
"Then it must be true. He''s definitely better than the other psychologists I''ve dealt with before," Ines
smiled.
Ethan stayed with Ines as she slept. He held her waist and his hand slowly slid down to her belly.
Ines'' face instantly turned bright red, but she felt veryfortable with the continuous warmth.
"Izzy, sleep well, I''m here with you." Ethan said.
"Don''t you have to deal withpany matters?" Ines always felt that Ethan spent too much time
with her, and she was a bit worried for him. "It''s okay, there''s not too much work." Ethan said.
