Chapter 5: Bumping into Him the Moment She Returned

Shirley’s call was then heard from the inside. “Emma, Jacob, time to rest.”

“Mommy’s coming out,” Emma said nervously. Jacob quickly moved the cursor and cleared the

conversation history and the message he had sent just now. He then jumped down from the chair,

grabbed Emma’s hand and walked into the house. Shirley walked downstairs from the second floor.

Seeing the little guys walking in from the outside, she let out a gentle smile and walked towards them.

She held their hands and brought them upstairs.

After reaching the children’s room, Shirley hugged Emma and Jacob and asked, “Jacob, Emma, if

mommy’s going back to China, would you want to come with me and live there?” Both kids looked at

each other and nodded.

At the Airport of X Airlines in China the next day, Shirley and the kids left through the airport’s secret

pathway to avoid catching any attention. She only took out her sunglasses and wore it after sending the

kids into the car assigned by Mildred. She turned around and headed back into the airport once again.

Upon reaching Exit A, a black Roll-Royce car had stopped in front of the main entrance which caught

the passerby’s attention. Shirley took a deep breath and quickly walked to it. A man wearing black suit

went out of the car from the driver seat and asked politely, “Is this Doctor Thomas?”

“Yes, I am.” Shirley took out her working permit and handed to him. The chauffeur gave it back to her

after examining it. He extended his hand and pulled the door at the back of the car open. Just then, a

figure and a pair of sharp eyes abruptly went into her line of sight and caught her off guard.

Shirley slightly backed up due to shock. The man’s deep eyes were like eagles, sharp and aggressive.

She could always dream of how his eyes invaded her body when he was above her every midnight…It

was Bryan Moore! She never expected that he would come with the man who was sent to pick her up!

“Doctor, this is the eldest son of the Moore family, and also the one needs to be treated by you this

time. Madam hopes that you could let Mr. Moore rest as soon as possible, and also make sure the

sleep is of high quality.” The guy in suit who was standing at the side introduced the mission to her

courteously in a formal manner. There was a hint in his words - the old lady hoped that she could let

Bryan Moore have a good sleep. After finished, he then only introduced himself. “My name’s Jordan

Hill.”

Shirley reacted and her startled look vanished. She did not try to flatter the man before her on purpose © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

because of his prestigious status. With her usual indifferent look, she entered the car and the man

outside closed the door shut. The temperature inside the car suddenly dropped.

Shirley could sense a chill spreading from her toes to her scalp. Having thought of the man who was

sitting beside her was the father of her two children, the rape six years ago still traumatized her when

she remembered it now. She could cure other’s mental illness, but she could not heal the wound in her

heart. She quickly opened her black purse and a faint fragrance came out. That purse was designed by

her to put perfume bottles.

The car started and the guy in suit sitting in front spoke, “Mr. Moore has a global video conference to

manage at 3pm tomorrow. There are still six hours until 3pm and Doctor Thomas has to let Mr. Moore

wake up before 3pm, or should I say, let Mr. Moore sleep now until ten minutes before the conference

commences.”

Shirley’s hand which was holding the perfume slightly froze. She turned towards the man beside her

and realized he was staring at her. To be more accurate, he had been looking at her since just now.

She quickly moved her eyes away and asked, “Do you have any question towards me? Mr. Moore.”

“I’m waiting for you to hypnotize me!” Didn’t the psychologists always ask him to stare at something to

hypnotize him? He thought it was going to be the same this time too. Shirley shook her head and took

out a bottle of transparent perfume. She said, “I never hypnotize my patients. Hypnosis only treats you

temporarily but it doesn’t cure you. If you fall asleep this time, you’re gonna need the same method to

make you sleep next time, also, the same trick won’t work after being used repetitively for a while.”

Bryan relaxed his wrinkled eyebrows as he heard her soft and sincere voice and he could gradually

detect a faint fragrance in the air. That fragrance had made him recalled a sense of familiarity. Where

had he had that kind of feeling before…
