Chapter 1003 What About Hypnosis?
“Well, that’s certainly the gist of it,” Jacob mused, his brow furrowing. “How about bringing Cherry over soon? If we hypnotize her, her memory should fully recover within a couple of weeks.”
“Hypnosis?” Damien scoffed, shaking his head. “No.” Sebastian’s words had already completely shattered Cherise’s trust in Damien. Proposing hypnosis now would only confirm her suspicions that he was erasing her memory once more, just as Sebastian had suggested. Not only would she reject the idea, but it would also deepen her distrust of him. “Let’s explore other options,” Damien suggested.
“Then we might have to consider medication.” Jacob suggested, his lips pouting. “But given your perspective, medication probably won’t be effective either, right?”
“Absolutely not, Damien responded, his gaze dropping to the pen he idly twirled between his fingers. Letting out a sigh, he continued, “Are there any other options we could explore?”
“In my opinion,” Lennon chimed in, taking a deep breath, “you should just take Cherry for hypnosis. Whether it’s medication or hypnosis, it’s worth a shot if it helps her regain her memory! Plus, she already sees you as an adversary. Why fret? Once she recalls everything, she’ll understand!”
Do you think I haven’t thought about that?” Damien narrowed his eyes, shooting a cold glare at Lennon. “It’s just that… though Jake mentioned that these methods are viable suggestions from experts, Damien continued, his gaze slightly frosty. “No one can guarantee with certainty that hypnosis or medication will fully trigger her memory.”
“If we repeatedly try hypnosis or medication to no avail, she’ll eventually leave me,” he continued, his eyes shutting briefly. “I can’t bear to lose her again.”
The weight of Damien’s words hung heavy in the room, immediately silencing the others. Damien and Cherise had endured countless trials together. Jacob and Lennon were familiar with the challenges the couple had faced.
If Damien pushes for hypnosis or medication, it’ll only drive Cherise further away. Their thoughts echoed silently in the somber atmosphere of the room. She’ll always question and resent him, especially with Sebastian lurking in the shadows. If she leaves this time, it might be permanent. And what if her memories don’t
return?
“Then we have no choice but to… revisit the past. Try to trigger some of Cherise’s latent memories and assist her in recalling them,” Jacob sighed heavily. “We should start with the people Cherise still. remembers.”
Leaning over to scrutinize the data, he wrinkled his brow lightly. I’ve arranged for individuals to gather information about Cherise’s connections in Shaw’s village, including her classmates and acquaintances from school, as well as those she encountered in Lermille later on in life.”
“This task is quite immense. If it weren’t for your influence, Damien, I might have struggled to gather everyone’s photos within a week,” Jacob admitted with a wry smile. “I’ve arranged for Lucy to visit tomorrow and show Cherise the photos. Surely, there are gaps in her memories of the past two decades.”
Damien nodded in agreement. “It seems like our most viable option.”

Chapter 1003 What About Hypnosis?
As Damien and Jacob conversed carnestly, Lennon remained fixated on the computer screen, lost in thought. His eyes widened abruptly. “Jake, did you mention contacting Lucy?”
Caught off guard, Jacob’s guilty expression was evident as he quickly diverted his gaze. “Um, well…”
“Is Lucy going to Damien’s place tomorrow to see Cherise?” Lennon sought clarification.
