"Okay."
Hadley let out a breath of relief. Luckily, Young Madam had not given up.
As the assistant of Australia's wealthiest man, Hadley had some good connections too. He quickly found a doctor called Dr. Cooper in Australia. Although Dr.
Cooper had retired for many years, he had extensive experience in psychological research.
That evening, Hadley accompanied Catherine to meet Dr. Cooper.
After Dr. Cooper heard about Shaun’s changes, he adjusted his reading glasses. He said, "When I had an exchange with the top psychologists from Country Y, I heard them mentioning an ancient hypnotic skill in Country Y that could tamper with a person's feelings and memories. Your friend's symptoms are quite similar to that."
Catherine was shocked. She asked frantically, "Can it b e cured?"
Dr. Cooper laughed bitterly. "I've already said that this hypnotic skill is very ancient. My psychologist friends in Country Y just said that based on hearsay. No one even knows how to do it. This evil skill has been
banned in the psychological profession. Apparently, n o one will even dare to attempt it under normal circumstances because controlling the human brain and emotions is an unpredictable matter. In the past, those who have attempted this hypnosis would change a perfectly normal person into a retard eight out of ten times. Therefore, this skill was slowly forgotten."
Catherine and Hadley were horrified.
They did not expect Sarah to be so cruel that she would use a hypnotic skill that has been banned on Shaun. He was the person she loved, for goodness sake.
It was lucky that Shaun was part of the percentile that did not become a retard.
"Is there no chance at all?" Catherine asked, refusing t o give up.
"That's right, Mr. Cooper. Please think about it," Hadley said hastily, "Although you're retired, I know that you have the most knowledge about this out of all the psychologists in Australia."
Dr. Cooper sighed. "I definitely can't cure him, and there are only very few doctors who can cure this. Even if you find a doctor who can do it, I’ll advise you not to because the treatment process is even more dangerous. The chances of recovery are only one percent, so I've never heard of successful cases. I reckon that those who received the treatment are still retards."
Catherine's mind was blank, and it was as if her heart had stopped beating too.
