Chapter 508 Evan Regrets His Past Mistakes

Ethan left Elbert and went to find Connor, feeling down.

Elbert had a point: switching therapists often reopened wounds for patients.

Jasmine already didn't trust therapists, so Ethan was careful about choosing one this time.

Connor had his flaws, but his past anxiety showed he genuinely cared for Jasmine. Howard had been making moves lately. While nothing extreme had happened yet, Ethan couldn't shake the feeling that danger was imminent.

If Ethan got hurt or worse, he couldn't imagine what would happen to Jasmine.

For her sake, he was on high alert.

"Mr. Douglas, do you have an appointment?" the nurse asked.

Connor was swamped, especially after returning from injury leave.

"Tell him to clear his lunch break for me," Ethan said, frowning as he waited.

The nurse, not wanting to argue, called Connor during his break.

Connor wasn't surprised; he knew Ethan would come back after seeing Elbert. Elbert was his junior, after all.

"Ethan came to see you?" Connor asked Elbert.

"Yeah," Elbert replied lazily. "Will Ethan kill us if he finds out we tricked him?"

Connor stayed silent, unsure what to say. Ethan held grudges.

Elbert continued, "Senior, I found a clinical trial subject for your treatment plan."

Connor was taken aback, rubbing his temples. "Elbert, we're different. II'm already a mess, but you should be careful."

Therapists and patients have a two-way relationship.

While helping patients, therapists absorb their negative emotions. Those with poor empathy can't be good therapists, but those with strong empathy risk carrying guilt if a treatment fails and a patient ends their life.

That's a heavy burden.

Connor carried that burden for Jasmine.

But Elbert was different; he had a bright, healthy soul and didn't need to conduct extreme experiments.
