Chapter 1498

Chapter 1498The letter read: Hello, Joyce. This is a letter that I am writing for myself. I want you to know that I once
loved a man very much, but he doesn't love me back. In fact, he even hates me to death. Anyway, an
accident happened and I got pregnant with his child. He got really mad after finding out about it. Not
only did he not want the child, but he also ordered me to get an abortion. I didn't want to do so, but I
was afraid of him threatening me with my parents. As such, I got Natalie and her husband to help me
out. Thanks to them, my parents and I were able to safely leave J City and come to this country. The
purpose of this is to get away from Stanley and to provide myself with a peaceful environment to slowly
forget about him. However, my love for him was so deep that I couldn't forget about him at all. It could
take years or even a lifetime for me to truly let go. The pain was simply too much for me to bear. I knew
that it would be impossible for me to forget about him on my own, so I contacted a hypnotherapy clinic
and had a professional hypnotist treat me. Due to the extreme nature of this method, you may end up
with blank spaces in your memory. The purpose of this letter is to tell you the reason behind the blank
spaces. Do not be afraid, and do not attempt to recover those memories. Trust me, it's not worth the
pain that they bring. I hope you will be able to live happily from here on. Take good care of your parents
and your child. Love, the old Joyce.
Caitlin's jaw dropped in disbelief after she had finished reading the letter. “J-Joyce, is this how you
forgot about Stanley?” she asked with her teary eyes open wide.
Joyce shrugged. “I guess so. That's what it says on the letter.”
As she had completely forgotten about Stanley, he no longer existed in her memories.
This chapter upload first at NovelEbook.OrgJoyce couldn't recall his appearance, his height, his age, his personality, and his profession.
Had she not stumbled upon the letter, she wouldn't even know who Stanley was. As such, she had no idea what she was thinking when she decided to go for hypnotherapy.
Caitlin pulled her daughter into her arms and sobbed, “Joyce, you silly girl! How could you use such an
extreme method to forget about someone? What if it has side effects on your brain?”
Since hypnotherapy affects the brain directly, there's a high risk of the patient going crazy if the
hypnotist isn't skilled enough! How could Joyce put herself through something so dangerous? What
would Jonathan and I do if something happens to her?
Joyce felt guilty when she saw how scared and worried Caitlin was. “I'm sorry for doing this without
telling you and Dad. Still, I think everything turned out really well.”
She then took the crumpled letter over from Caitlin and opened it up as she continued, “I've forgotten
about that man named 'Stanley,' so I no longer love him. Judging by the contents of this letter, I can see
that I must've loved him a great deal before. After all, I wouldn't have resorted to hypnotherapy if I
didn't. Also, it's stated in this letter that I was unable to forget him on my own, so perhaps an extreme
method like this is for the better.”
Caitlin gave her a light smack on the forehead. “Yeah, I know. I was just worried about your safety,
that's all.”
Joyce stuck her tongue out and said, “Stop worrying, Mom! I'm perfectly fine now, aren't I? Besides, I'm
free from the pain of loving Stanley now that I've forgotten about him! This is a good thing, don't you
think?”
“Yeah, it is...” Caitlin replied while letting out a helpless sigh.
