Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife

After dropping Lyla off at kindergarten, Olivia went to see the psychologist Dr. Chance.

“Ms. James, Mr. Quinton told me you’ve had another episode?”

Olivia sat across from her and nodded. “Yeah, do I have to continue taking medicine?”

Dr. Chance stared at her for a moment and shook her head. “Ms. James, as I’ve said, your illness is complicated. It’s not as simple as what we call PTSD.

“You’re afraid because he bullied and hurt you. But more importantly, you’re afraid of him retaliating even more because you’ve stabbed him, aren’t you?”

Olivia was silent for a moment. “Yeah, something like that.”

“Taking medicine can only control your fear, but it can’t get rid of the root of your problem.” Dr. Chance put the medicine on the coffee table. “I’ve filled the prescription for you, but it’s still up to you to solve the problem.”

Olivia understood all these things.

However, knowing and doing were two different things.

Seeing her lowered head, Dr. Chance said, “Ms. James, you have to face the past. You refused to face the past in the past four years. You’ve been running away from it, so you’re panicked when he shows up. Come to me again when you’re ready to face it.”
