My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Noticing Erin's sudden look of surprise, everyone held their breath.

She gestured for Ellie to sit on the nearby couch and, after a quick glance at her eyes, circled around her, inspecting her carefully.

Erin's face was now serious, which was a rare sight.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Ellie asked, "Am I really hypnotized?"

"Yeah," Erin replied. "I can see signs of it. When you found out that guy betrayed you, did you suddenly feel... lighter? Like all the love and attachment you had for him just vanished?"

Ellie nodded immediately. "Yes, exactly!"

She had been confused earlier.

She used to be obsessed with Darien, loving him to the point of insanity. She wouldn't have been willing to be his mistress for years, let alone act like a lovesick puppy.

The idea of him breaking up with her once felt unbearable, devastating.

She thought finding out who he truly was would break her, but instead, all she felt was relief, almost like a sense of victory.

As if her love had been a lie all along.

As Ellie reflected, Erin spoke up again. "That makes sense. The hypnosis you were under made you think Darien was risking his life for you, that you had to love him deeply no matter what, trust him... and that's why you've been stuck on him all these years, thinking he was your true love.
