Chapter 484: Ending Everything Between Them
“Hmm, I still want to look you in the face as I tell you this,” Haynes Seasons said.
“You’re responsible,” Jasmine Yale laughed.
When she laughed, her brows and eyes curved pleasantly, but there was always a shallow sadness lingering among her features.
Like the drenched lilacs after a rainfall.
“The original intention of my occupation was to let everyone forget their unpleasant memories, and indeed, many people have been grateful for my services,” Haynes Seasons said.
“Such as?” Jasmine Yale got curious.
“For example, a woman in her twenties who was sexually assaulted by her stepfather as a child. Whenever she thought about it, she would collapse. When she found me, I helped her hypnotize away those memories. Now, she lives a very happy life, she has a family, she even has a child.”
Jasmine Yale knew that Haynes Seasons was highly capable.
He was unlike the average hypnotist, he could allow one to entirely erase specific memories or a specific individual from all their recollections.
However, once a memory was removed, it was permanently gone.
There was no way to recover it.
“But Miss Yale, you must understand that I have also made a decision I will regret for my entire life.”
A deep, unending darkness filled Haynes Seasons’ eyes, like the still surface of an undisturbed lake…
Jasmine Yale knew he hypnotized Muse Sutton.
Now, Muse Sutton remembers everyone except him.
For Haynes Seasons, this experience was devastating.
He personally tasted what it felt like to be filled with regret…
“Miss Yale, you may want to think it over again,” Haynes Seasons cautioned.
Jasmine Yale took a sip of her coffee.
She had already done a lot of thinking.
Since that incident happened in the forest, she had been contemplating.
If she could completely erase Sylvan Cheney from her memory, their entanglement would be over for good.
After waking up from hypnosis, if they encountered each other again, they would be like strangers.
She did not want his compensation; after all, he did nothing wrong to her.
She just wanted to unilaterally… end everything between them.
He already has his own life, and she also wants her own new life.
“Miss Yale, does Mr. Cheney know about this?” Haynes Seasons asked.
Jasmine Yale shook her head.
“Then Miss Yale, if you are really set on this, we can start tomorrow,” Haynes Seasons said, “You can trust me to do the job properly without any delay. If you want to erase all memories related to Mr. Cheney, I will make you completely forget him, not even a fraction of memory will linger.”
Haynes Seasons spoke with certain determination.
He had the ability to do so.
“Not even the slightest memory would remain?”
She lifted her head, looked at him, and a thin mist of tears welled up in her eyes.
The light in her wide eyes was dim and distant, flickering on and off, undisturbed.
“Correct, not a sliver of memory would remain. Like a complete stranger, just as you and I are to each other.”
“Not even when I see familiar things?”
“Hmm, even if you see something familiar, you wouldn’t feel any emotional reaction because you simply won’t remember it anymore.”
“Mr. Seasons, you’re quite amazing,” Jasmine Yale laughed.
Haynes Seasons was somewhat caught between laughter and tears.
So after saying all that, he just received a comment that he was quite amazing?
“Miss Yale, it would be best if you could let go on your own,” Haynes Seasons said, “Miss Yale, consider it again.”
“I’ve never seen someone who pushes business away like you do.”
Jasmine Yale’s face was filled with a smile.
“So, you’re insisting on going through with the hypnosis?” Haynes Seasons questioned, seeing her determination.
