Catherine's POV

Upon hearing Dr. Cooper's words, I tensed up. Yet I still nodded. "Sure. Go ahead."

"Have you ever thought about that night in the last five years?"

"No. I avoided it. I didn't want to think about it at all."

"Then take a moment to think about what happened five years ago that caused you to break down."

I closed my eyes and clenched my fists. For the first time, I was willing to face that night when everything went wrong.

Suddenly, some images flashed through my mind.

"I remember something!" My entire body trembled. Indeed, I recalled something. I just didn't want to dig into it.

"What is it?" Dr. Cooper asked gently. "Tell me. Let me know what you are thinking."

"I woke up once that night, because I was so painful. When I opened my eyes, I thought I heard Blake calling out a name, a woman's name."

I suddenly sat up and covered my face. The pain deep down had nowhere to hide.

"Do you remember what that name was?" Dr. Cooper continued to ask in a very soft voice.

"It was Emily!" Even after five years, I still hadn't forgotten the name.

That night, I woke up to the fact that I was a substitute for another woman.

"Who was she? Did you know her?" Dr. Cooper asked.

"Yes. She was a woman Blake had a crush on." Emily's elegant and beautiful appearance emerged in my mind. I felt resentment and anger inexplicably. It turned out to be her.

"That would explain why you're so tensed up. You always have a grudge deep down, feeling that he treats you as a substitute. You resent him, resist him, and it becomes the cause of your illness today. Ms. Wyatt, since you have recalled what happened, you should face it bravely. It's the only way to get over it," Dr. Cooper said.

I felt as if I had been seriously ill. My body was weak, and my clenched fists were full of sweat.

"Dr. Cooper, thank you. I'd like to go now." I suddenly became more passive.

After thanking her, I stood up and put on my coat. "Thank you for helping me. Now I know why I became like this."

"Ms. Wyatt, you know it now, but you still can't let go of it easily. You still need to come and talk to me again. OK?"

"I will!" After I finished speaking, I turned and left.

I was walking out of the hospital, and I looked at the warm sunlight outside the door. I took a step out, soaking my body in the sun.

The warm feeling took the chill out of me.

Yes, I now recalled all of that painful memory that I deliberately buried in the bottom of my heart.

That night, I woke up from intense pain. I seemed to be kicking and tearing at him, but it didn't affect him at all. What was more, he kept calling out another woman's name.

I couldn't remember how painful I felt that night. I was suffering both mentally and physically.

Finally, I fainted. When I woke up, I was kicked out of the pack in a sorry state.
