Hearing this, Owen Rhodes took a deep breath before answering, "Miss Kensington, Master Blackwood is because he suffers from emotional detachment syndrome!"
Emotional detachment syndrome?
Ivy Kensington was stunned, it was the first time she heard these words, and she was completely taken aback.
It was also the first time Owen had heard of this phenomenon, so he explained, "I found it strange, whether it was Master Blackwood’s attitude towards you or Miss Sterling, both were very odd, so I went to find a doctor and asked him about it."
"Emotional detachment syndrome can be considered a type of mental illness. Master Blackwood frequently had habitual headaches, and even now, it hasn’t improved much. Emotional detachment syndrome occurs when someone repeatedly feels disappointed and unimportant in the eyes of another, receiving constant blows, and eventually contracts this illness."
"The symptoms you see are exactly like today; Master Blackwood no longer cares about you, he no longer values you, he’s very indifferent, completely treating you like a stranger. As for why his attitude towards Miss Sterling changed, perhaps it’s because..."
Saying this, Owen also found it strange.
He could only murmur, "Maybe it’s because this time, Miss Sterling saved him, leaving a different feeling in Master Blackwood’s heart."
Ivy’s mind was one of numbness, quietly listening to Owen finish his words.
Is it because he feels unloved by her, repeatedly hurt by her, that he ended up ?
Ivy’s heart trembled, such a delayed sense of retribution almost made her heart shatter with pain.
She never intended to hurt him, nor did she realize that her actions had caused such severe consequences in his heart...
Ivy’s face turned pale, asking incoherently, "Can he recover... will he always be ?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel※fire.net
Owen scratched his head, "Miss Kensington, that’s hard to say."
Perhaps he could recover, or perhaps not.
Owen was really afraid of hurting Ivy further, so he ultimately offered some comfort, "Miss Kensington, don’t worry, I’ll definitely find the best doctors for Master Blackwood."
Ivy’s eyes lost focus as she looked at the ground, the smile pulling at her lips was awkward and forced.
"Alright, thank you, Assistant Rhodes."
But she knew clearly, if he couldn’t be cured, she might have to lose Sebastian Blackwood forever.
Sylvia Sterling had pushed Sebastian Blackwood back to the hospital room. After some thought, she seriously said, "Director Blackwood, I think we should maintain a distance to avoid people gossiping."
Although there was an engagement when they were young, that’s all in the past.
Before returning to the country, she heard that Sebastian Blackwood was interested in someone else, and she didn’t want to be the third party who ruins someone else’s love.
Though she had to admit, Sebastian Blackwood was an excellent man, handsome and powerful, a man at the top of Celestia’s social pyramid, anyone would be moved.
But she clearly understood, he was not meant for her, so she wouldn’t entertain any fantasies.
Sebastian lowered his eyes, a textbook in his pocket, as he gently rubbed the smooth cover with his finger.
He couldn’t forget the time when he was unconscious, a woman whispered by his ear every night, he could feel her care and sincerity.
That feeling made him yearn for more.
And these different emotions were all given to him by Sylvia Sterling.
Clenching the textbook a bit tighter in his hand, Sebastian raised his eyes, his voice calm and yet filled with evident determination, "Miss Sterling, I believe I might have feelings for you."
