Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 840 Unsuccessful Hypnosis

Oscar drove his car at high speed to shake off his bodyguards, who were secretly following him. He brought the car to a halt in front of a well-concealed psychiatric clinic. Isabella looked outside the car window and could not help curling her lips into a smug smile. I can finally obtain everything I want after putting in so much effort.

She unbuckled her seat belt, leaned forward to kiss Oscar, and said with a smile, “Oscar, one day, you will belong only to me.”

He merely glanced at her impassively. “Let’s go,” she said affectionately. Oscar nodded, unbuckled his seat belt, and got out of the car obediently.

Isabella held Oscar’s arm and led him inside. An old foreign man with white hair stepped forward and greeted them, “Isabella, is this the man you mentioned? He’s very handsome. No wonder you fell for him. However, judging from his appearance, I think a man like him is very difficult to control. Even if you possess him now, you can’t have him forever. Besides, when he completely recovers his memories, he will recall everything you’ve done to him. Are you really prepared for this?”

Isabella’s expression turned cold. “Professor Zabinski, that’s not what you told me previously. You said you could provide me with a medication that could make someone submit to me and will never have any adverse reaction. Why are you telling me a different story now?”

Bernard Zabinski shrugged. “Those are nothing more than lies. There are no such medications in this world. I would have forced the wealthiest man to yield to me if there was. Moreover, I did inform you about all the possible aftereffects of this medication, but you were too greedy, so you used it without considering the consequences. By the time he regains his memories, I do not know if he will fall in love with you for real or take revenge on you. You need to make up your mind now. Both of you can still come out of this situation unscathed if you call this off now.”

Isabella clenched her fists as a menacing look spread across her face.

“Professor Zabinski, I’ve brought him here, so there is no way for me to turn back now,” she uttered adamantly.

Bernard gestured for them to enter. “Please, come in. I’ve made all the necessary preparations, and we can start any time. This man is our tenth test subject. I think I can perfectly create a set of new memories for him.”

Isabella subconsciously grasped his hand and said, “Professor Zabinski, you are not using me, are you?”

He beamed at her like a kind, old foreign man. “Isabella, I’m just a psychiatrist with enthusiasm for research. I am passionate about exploring the psychology of humans so I can assist those at a loss to alter their memories using hypnosis. Although my actions do not comply with the most fundamental medical ethics, why does it matter? I do not want to be a mere traditional-minded psychiatrist. All right, we can begin now. I can’t wait to see the effect the medicine I invented has on this seemingly perfect tenth test subject.”

Catching sight of his zealous demeanor, Isabella suddenly felt ill at ease and instinctively tightened her grip around Bernard’s hand.

Bernard turned his head around and smiled gently. “What’s the matter, Isabella? Are you regretting your decision? If that’s the case, I will cancel this experiment. But are you really willing to give up now, after spending so much effort to achieve this stage thus far?”

Countless thoughts flashed across Isabella’s mind as she ruminated on his words. Then, she gradually let go of him.

Bernard asked Oscar to lie on the bed before pushing the latter into a piece of medical equipment to undergo an examination. After the process went on for close to an hour, Oscar was brought out of the machine, and Bernard officially began hypnotizing Oscar.

Unexpectedly, despite his attempts to forcefully implant all the fake memories he had discussed with Isabella previously into Oscar’s mind, Bernard failed to enter the deepest part of Oscar’s brain due to the latter’s immensely tough mental strength.

Bernard, now covered in cold sweat, wasted almost three hours on the hypnosis. Still, Oscar continued to struggle in the chair, showing faint signs of waking up.

Bernard hurriedly stopped what he was doing. He wiped the sweat off his forehead while panting heavily, and he said, “Isabella, his willpower is too strong. Even if I implant a different set of memories into his brain now, I’m afraid this condition will not last for many years. You should be prepared to handle any sudden changes.”

Staring at Oscar, Isabella clenched her fists and uttered aggressively, “I don’t care. I’ve spent so much effort and endured his endless disdain and mockery to accomplish this step. There is no turning back now. He can only be mine.”
