CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1495

The more Caitlin thought about it, the happier she got.

Joyce, on the other hand, stopped smiling the moment her mother left. She lowered her gaze, and there was an inexplicable expression on her face.

After a while, she took her cell phone and called a number. In a foreign language, she said, “Hi. Is this a hypnotherapy clinic? I would like to know more about memory erasure.”

She knew better than anyone how much she loved Stanley. Hence, she thought it was impossible to forget the man and stop loving him right away. Even if I could, I'd need at least ten years. There's no way I can forget about him within the next few years. I've suffered for so many years, and I refuse to keep suffering. Besides, I don't want my child to see me being trapped in a past relationship. So, I'm going to erase all my memories of Stanley. In order to stop loving him, I need to forget about him. This is the best and fastest option I have right now.

“Okay. I'll go over tomorrow,” Joyce said on the phone.

After that, she wrote the address on a piece of paper and hung up the phone.

Her hands were trembling when she looked at the note.

It was understandable since it was impossible for her to not get emotional about what she was going to do. This note is my key to forgetting Stanley.

With that thought in mind, Joyce gripped the note in her hand and closed her eyes. There was an air of sadness and relief enveloping her. Stanley, I'm going to let you go and free myself. Over the past ten-

odd years, I've loved you so deeply that I've lost myself. I've even lost my dignity and my sanity. Yet, you resent me. How could I not feel devastated? I've tried, but I couldn't free myself from this relationship. I was in too deep. Now, I have no choice but to resort to such a radical method. I need to get out of these shackles. I need to free myself and let you go. Stanley, I'm not going to love you anymore.

“Stanley, I don't want to love you anymore,” Joyce muttered to herself before opening her eyes. At that moment, she was crying and smiling at the same time.

The next day, she came up with an excuse, saying that she wanted to take a stroll on her own. She then went to the hypnotherapy clinic she had contacted the day prior.

When she came out of there, she looked like an entirely different person.

Before she went in, she looked troubled and moody.

When she came out, she had a smile on her face, and she was rather cheery.

In comparison, before the treatment, Joyce was a person who had lost her sense of self and her soul. After the treatment, she looked like she had never been hurt in a relationship. At the same time, even her gaze had turned blissful.

All in all, it was safe to assume that neither Caitlin nor Jonathan would recognize Joyce. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

As expected, both of them were stunned when they saw Joyce going home with a smile on her face. She looked like she had never encountered pain in her life.

With a spatula in her hand, Caitlin looked at Jonathan in bewilderment and asked, “What's going on?”

Jonathan glanced at Joyce and shook his head. “I have no idea.”

“This is weird. Why is Joyce like this? Why is she so cheerful? She's acting like how she used to act when she was a child,” Caitlin murmured.

Jonathan nodded. “I think so, too.”

“This is not normal. Something must have happened.” Caitlin's expression turned solemn. “Joyce was still mentally unstable yesterday. So why is she acting as if nothing had ever happened? Something's wrong.”

When Joyce arrived home, she smiled and greeted them. That was why Caitlin and Jonathan were weirded out.

Ever since Joyce became a teenager, she had never greeted them that way.
