Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 832

Outside the consultation room, Alex was a bundle of nerves. She hadn't expected the boss to jump into hypnosis so quickly, especially considering the risks involved with something so uncertain. What if things got messed up and his memory turned into a jumbled mess? That'd be a nightmare.
