A Graduation Gift

Chapter 125 Who Had Her Beset

Rufus quietly opened the bedroom door to allow Cassandra to enter. Courtney had fallen asleep. Rufus knitted his eyebrows and gazed at her, thoughtfully.

"Did you find out something?"

Cassandra looked at him hopefully.

"I'm guessing her boyfriend said something before he left her which turned her into what she's like now,"

Rufus replied, looking a little worn out. Because making one confess something that was bothering her very deeply was a challenging task, both mentally and physically, for a hypnotist.

"What on earth did he say to her?"

Cassandra asked, partly thinking aloud.

"She hasn't mentioned it. It must be something that hurt her so deeply that she refuses to recall what it was. Again, hypnosis is not a cure to everything. I have no way to dig into the thoughts that she subconsciously rejects,"

Rufus shook his head helplessly.

Cassandra let out a sigh. It looked like it would take much time before they get Courtney to allow her trauma to surface.

As Rufus looked at her disappointed face, an idea came to him.

"If it's okay with you, I will ask Victor to bring Joel here. We haven't turned him in yet. He might be of help,"

Rufus said, taking a look at Joel's photo in his hand. It was what he used to hypnotize Courtney just a few moments ago.

Cassandra remembered freezing when she saw Joel's photo in Courtney's locket. She guessed that something terrible must have happened between them.

While her experience of Joel was rather disruptive—the man drugged her and plagiarized her work—Cassandra still could not believe that he had anything to do with Courtney's illness.

"I'm scared that seeing Joel would make it worse. It's the reason why her mom kept her away from people," Cassandra replied. "What if... We ask Joel what he has done to Courtney, instead?" Cassandra said thoughtfully.

She thought this might be the best solution after racking her brains
