Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 260

Tim then let out a sigh and said, “Now that six years have passed, I think my senior is probably even better than my mentor now.”

“I see, but how did Tina come to know a hypnotist like him?” Toby probingly looked at the doctor.

Tim continued to spin his scalpel. “Didn’t I just say I don’t know? But anyway, I’m curious to know more about it.”

As Tim didn’t look like he was lying, Toby only knitted his eyebrows in a preoccupied manner.

Hmm. Even Tim doesn’t know anything about the matter. Perhaps there is indeed more than meets the eye about Tina.

Soon, Tom returned, whereupon Toby instructed his assistant to investigate Tim’s senior and told him about the mysterious culprit who hypnotized them.

Meanwhile, Tim watched everything in silence without interfering with the two men throughout their discussion. After all, he and his senior shared a rather strained relationship with each other, which was why he decided to just stand by and allow Toby to investigate his senior.

When Tom left, Toby looked at Tim and said, “Now, please help me gain control over my hypnotic influence.”

“Of course, but I’m going to charge double. After all, this job is off the books, so if I get caught, I’m going to get penalized with a pay-cut,” Tim playfully replied.

Toby shot a cold gaze at him. “You won’t be disappointed.”

“Alright then.” Tim put away his scalpel.

An hour later, Toby came to his senses after Tim snapped his fingers. When he opened his eyes, he felt so relieved and peaceful in the depths of his mind. At that moment, he knew Tim had already seized control of his hypnotic influence. “Thank you.” Toby looked at Tim and expressed his gratitude.

After that, Tim collapsed onto the chair in exhaustion, his face covered in sweat. “Nothing speaks louder than money, so show me your gratitude by paying me right. Moreover, I’d like to remind you that I have only seized control of your hypnotic influence temporarily. The effect still remains in your body, so you might want to avoid meeting up with Tina as much as possible to make sure you won’t lose control of yourself.”

Toby replied with an affirmative hum to signify his acknowledgment. However, the next thing that came out of Tim’s mouth shocked him like a bolt from the blue. “By the way, when I was trying to gain control over your hypnotic influence, I realized a part of your memory has been locked away.”

“What?!” Anxiety was written all over Toby’s face. Even my memory is being locked away! Is that the reason why I’ve been having headaches all the time recently? Soon, he asked, “Can you undo it?”

Tim grunted coldly and answered, “I would have unlocked your memories and asked to be paid more if I knew how to do it. Only my senior can reverse the effects, so capture him and make him do it for you.” He then waved his hand and left the ward tiredly.

On the other hand, Toby only looked down, hiding his expression while radiating a cold aura that made the entire atmosphere in the ward feel oppressive. After all, he couldn’t believe that someone actually locked away his memories, as if being controlled by some hypnotic influence wasn’t bad enough. What a move, Tina!

Meanwhile, Zane was about to help put away the dishes after finishing his meal at Bayside Residence. At the same time, Sonia stood at the kitchen’s entrance and watched him wash the dish. “I thought a rich toff like you had zero idea about doing house chores.”

“Come on. I’ve been in the military, so what makes you think I don’t know how to handle these simple house chores.” Zane bragged.

“You’ve been in the military?” Sonia sounded surprised.

After washing the dishes, Zane proceeded to place them into the disinfection cabinet. “Of course. I was in the army for years, in fact. If it weren’t for something that came up, I would still probably be serving the army.”

When Sonia heard that, a sad look flashed across her face before she decided not to ask further. After all, she wasn’t a busybody who loved to pry into someone else’s sad story. Suddenly, her phone rang, and she headed to the living room and picked it up from the table to answer the call.

When the call ended two minutes later, Zane curiously asked, “Who was it?”

“It’s from the embassy. They called to inform me about my visa’s approval.” Sonia placed her phone on the table.
