Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 275

“What else could it be? It’s just like what you saw. I was almost strangled to death. Jarod’s voice was still a little hoarse.

*I already warned you.” Marina glared at Jarod before her. “Besides, with your abilities, this shouldn’t have happened.”

Marina was stabbed by Edward previously because she was caught off guard at that moment.

If someone had reminded her, she would definitely not let Edward hurt her.

She knew that Jarod was not as strong as she was. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Even though it might seem like he was weak, he really wasn’t. He was so strong that nobody could catch him or trap him in a situation he couldn’t get out of.

“I just wanted to do an experiment. I wanted to see how deeply he was hypnotized.” Jarod knew that he could not hide it from Marina, so he could only tell the truth.

“Are you mad?” Marina’s expression darkened when she heard this.

She looked like she really wanted to knock some sense into Jarod’s mind.

How dare he do such a dangerous thing!

He even took the initiative to let Edward attack him.

“I’m not mad. You brought me here to save him, right? That’s exactly what I’m doing.” Jarod responded, seeing nothing wrong with his actions.

“I asked you to save him, but I didn’t ask you to risk your life to save him!” Marina gritted her teeth.

“Do you think I’m that stupid? I only dared to do this because I knew you were outside,” Jarod snorted.

Marina was angry.

“This is the last time. If you dare to do this again, I guarantee that I will see you strangled to death. Then I will throw your body directly into the mass grave and let the wild dogs dismember it!” Marina pronounced every word clearly.

Jarod was stunned.

“Marina Bailey, aren’t you going a little too far? I’m helping you out here. It’s okay if you don’t thank me, but why do you swear at me like that?” Jarod couldn’t keep calm anymore.

“You deserve it!” Marina rolled her eyes at him.

“You… Jarod wanted to say something else.

Cavin, who was standing at the side, hurriedly came out to smooth things over.

“Forget it, forget it. Let’s not argue right now. Did you find anything?” Gavin looked at Jarod.”

He wanted to change the subject.

“After the test just now, I’m 100% sure that Edward has been deeply hypnotized. The only thing that can wake him up is the switch the hypnotist set for him.”

“Otherwise, there’s no way to wake him up.” Jarod was pretty professional after all.

When Gavin asked him about serious matters, he forgot about arguing with Marina.

82%

“So there’s nothing that you can do?” Marina frowned.

“Who told you I can’t do anything?” Jarod rolled his eyes.

“Then tell me. You’re dawdling like a little girl,” Marina said coldly.

“You….” Jarod’s chest heaved with anger as he struggled to find words to respond.

But since he hadn’t said everything he wanted to, he decided to drop the argument with Marina for the time being.

He continued what he had just been saying.

“Edward is in a deep state of hypnosis. If we try to wake him up using other methods without caution, it could cause irreversible damage to his nerves.”

“So, the only option we have now is to allow someone to enter his deep consciousness and guide him out of the hypnotic state. Jarod revealed his method.

“Enter his deep consciousness?” Gavin’s face showed a hint of surprise when he heard that. “Is it like in the movies, where you connect brainwaves or something?”

“More or less.” Jarod nodded.

“But… aren’t those just movies? Is there really such technology in real life?” Gavin was a little unconvinced.

“Art is often inspired by reality. Hypnosis may not be widely used, but that’s mainly because of its inherent risks. However, it has capabilities that are beyond the reach of ordinary methods.” Jarod explained.

“Therefore, many people are unwilling to use this technique in front of everyone.”

“But that doesn’t mean that no one is studying it. From what I know, many hypnotists have delved into the level of deep consciousness, Jarod continued.

“Then what should we do now?” Gavin was a little confused.

However, this person was brought here by Miss Bailey, so he should be trustworthy.

He would just listen to him.

“Now, I just need to find someone who has a strong connection with Edward. I’ll establish a connection between their consciousness and transfer his consciousness into Edward’s, where he’ll be able to bring Edward out of the hypnotic state,” Jarod outlined his plan..

Jarod was afraid that they would not understand, so he explained it very simply.

“I’ll do it!” Simon said without hesitation.

“What’s your relationship with him?” Jarod sized up Simon.

“I’m his younger brother,” Simon said firmly.

“Younger brother?” Jarod frowned when he heard this.

“What’s wrong? Can’t a brother do it?” Gavin asked.

“It’s not impossible. It’s just that the relationship between brothers is not the closest. If we have a choice, we would usually consider the patient’s partner, children, or parents first.”

“If we don’t have any of those, we’ll consider siblings and friends.”

“Does Edward have a wife and children?” Jarod asked.

12:16 Fri, 7 Jul

“His wife passed away.” After Edward went missing, his wife cried every day.

Later on, she heard some news about him.

She drove alone to investigate.

After that, she had an accident and passed away.

“Does he have any children?” Jarod asked.

Simon did not answer this question immediately.

“In that case, call his children over. While the bond between siblings is strong, it doesn’t compare to the bond between parents and children.” Jarod suggested.

“Let me do it.” Simon said after a moment of silence.

“I mean, why are you so stubborn? I’m the doctor here, so you should listen to me. I can’t stand family members like you who don’t listen to my advice.”

“Let me tell you, I don’t care. If you don’t want to, I’ll leave now!” Jarod became angry.

Simon frowned, but he was not angry at Jarod.

“Calm down. Why don’t you take a good look at who is standing right in front of you?” Marina stepped in to defend her husband.

“I’m telling the truth. You’re a doctor yourself. Do you like family members who don’t listen to you?” Jarod rolled his eyes.
