"She neither remembered her male partner, nor the four little monkeys she gave birth to, least of all the female monkey. After the treatment, she made new friends, got along well with other monkeys, and even gained a lot of weight."
Gary's eyes were glowing, "We plan to promote this kind of treatment to the masses. Of course, the cost will be very high, and it's only for the rich. After all, this technology was developed by our team after a lot of research."
"Why are you telling me this?" Elliot raised an eyebrow at him. "Are you trying to insult me by comparing me to monkeys?"
Gary smiled and shook his head. "Look at you. How could you suspect me of having such intentions? I brought you here to tell you about this new accomplishment of mine!"
"I don’t think your new achievement is going to make a lot of money," said Elliot, offering his opinion. "The rich cherish their lives tremendously. Who would want to gamble with their memories? Don't you think it'd be ridiculous if the treatment fails and the patient becomes a mindless fool?"
"That’s what makes our work so special." Gary took him to the biological laboratory." The patients won’t turn into mindless fools even if it fails."
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely. None of the many experiments we did have so far failed." Gary looked at him, "When I brought you here, Elliot, it's not just because I wanted to show you this achievement. I also wanted you to think about going through this procedure."
Elliot was silent.
"You need to get Avery out of your mind so you won't be blinded by love and do anything stupid for her as a result." Gary looked at him in earnest. "Do you know how much I loathe her after seeing her destroy the success you've achieved? You don't need to worry that I'd take revenge on her, of course. All I want is for you to forget her completely."
Elliot's expression froze, and he thought about the viability of the procedure.
"You're still young! As long as you forget the past and remain unfettered by love's chains, you'll definitely achieve greater things in the future! I believe in you, Elliot, = f+:YJQ: you must believe in yourself too." At Bridgedale, time passed in a flash, and soon it was time for Shea's surgery.
After Shea and Adrian were sent to the operating theater, Avery's cell phone rang.
