When Chase Harper called her the next day, she said, âChase, about that⦠I donât need you to help me take the pastries back anymore. Iâm going back to Emerald City too.â
âAre you going to go back too? When?â asked Chase Harper.
âProbably in the next couple of days. I have to check the high-speed train schedule,â said Kyla.
âWhy donât you join me tomorrow? Youâre pregnant. Itâs safer to have someone look after you. There are still seats on the carriage I booked. I can just switch seats with someone else,â said Chase Harper.
Kyla thought about it and agreed. After all, she should be careful now that she was pregnant. It was better to have someone she knew look out for her.
Therefore, Kyla asked Chase Harper about his train ride and carriage before booking a ticket back to Emerald City tomorrow on her phone.
Then, she called Mallory Malcom. âMallory, Iâll be returning to Emerald City tomorrow. Please help me check out of the hotel.â
Mallory Malcom froze. âTomorrow?â
âYes, tomorrow. Thereâs no point in staying here any longer. I might as well return sooner. Thank you for all the help these days,â she said politely.
Once she ended the call, she let out a little sigh.
Perhaps it would be hard for her to meet Martin Weiss again after her departure. Maybe when she did get a chance to see him again. years from now, he would already have someone new by his side.
The thought of it made her feel a clenching pain in her heart.
She tried hard to suppress the heartache and told herself that she had made this choice. She did it in hopes that he could live a good life and not risk his life for her.
âHe has now forgotten this relationship and no longer loves me. Is it not the best outcome?
âHeâll live a good life, so what do I have to regret?â
âI have nothing to regret!â she said to herself.
Mallory Malcom came to Martin Weissâs office and said, âChairman Weiss, Miss Corbyn will return to Emerald City tomorrow.â
Martin Weissâs hand jerked when he was reading the documents. He looked up at Mallory Malcom.
âSheâs returning to Emerald City?â
âYes, Miss Corbyn just called and told me about it. She has already booked a ticket back,â replied Mallory Malcom.
Martin Weissâs face was cold as his fingers gripped the pen.
âSheâs⦠going back?
âSo, has she given up begging me? Is she leaving my world so readily?â
She disturbed his already peaceful mind when she came.
Now that she had messed him up, she was leaving?
âKyla⦠Why canât I shut her out of my mind?â
His mind flashed back to the conversation he had with the hypnotist.
âCan hypnosis make me forget my feelings for that person?
âIn principle, yes. As long as no one says the âcode wordâ youâve chosen, itâs impossible to recover your feelings. Unless you fall in love with her again.â
âIs it true that only the code word can recover the memories? As long as I donât fall in love with her again and no one says the code. word, Iâll be indifferent to her?â
âThereâs another exception, which is if you love her too deeply.
In that case, thereâs a small chance your mind will dehypnotize itself. But the chances are so small that you have nothing to worry about.â
