Chapter 261 - 260: Deep Hypnosis
"Do you understand now?" Vincent asked Nathan Foster again.
"I understand." Nathan Foster’s voice was a bit hoarse.
"So, as I said, that little girl’s situation is quite tricky. If one day her life loses its purpose and her family is all settled, there’s a good chance that during a moment of setback and low spirits, she could be replaced by her second personality."
After saying this, Vincent thought about the way South Grant was replaced by his second personality and couldn’t help but shudder.
That androgynous guy, his second personality is too perverse, most people can’t handle it.
"How can we help her?"
Hearing Nathan Foster’s heavy words, Vincent said with some headache:
"As I mentioned, let me perform a deep hypnosis on her. I need to see what exactly caused the formation of her second personality.
Only by identifying the problem can we prescribe the right remedy. If we can find the reason for her personality formation and resolve it, her second personality will weaken relatively. After that, through psychological guidance, it’s not impossible to gradually erase the second personality."
Vincent spoke about the possible treatment methods, and Nathan Foster listened, remaining silent for a long time.
He remembered Vincent telling him that if the deep hypnosis failed, South Grant might face amnesia at best, or severe mental breakdown at worst.
Neither outcome was something Nathan Foster wanted to see.
Seeing Nathan Foster’s silence, Vincent could only speak frankly with him:
"Previously, I didn’t know how severe that little girl’s condition was, so I told you I was quite confident with deep hypnosis.
But now, it’s obvious that her second personality is stronger than her primary personality. Hypnotizing her second personality isn’t realistic; it definitely won’t cooperate.
If we hypnotize her primary personality, and only her primary personality, we might not be able to control the second personality. I didn’t realize how strong her second personality was and thought that deep hypnosis could put both personalities under.
Now, my confidence isn’t high. If we enter deep hypnosis and I fail to control her second personality, it may only accelerate the erasure of her primary personality, leaving the second personality in control."
Vincent said a lot, and Nathan Foster summarized two points from it.
First, Vincent can only hypnotize the primary personality now, with no confidence in controlling the second one.
Second, if hypnosis fails, it will accelerate the erasure of South Grant’s primary personality, leaving it no longer clear and the second personality in control.
In other words, the path of hypnosis is not viable.
"Are there any other options?" Nathan Foster definitely wasn’t going to try deep hypnosis.
"Other? The only other hope is that her primary personality leads an uneventful life without any shocks or setbacks. Otherwise, once she reaches the limit of what she can bear, she will hide away herself. Or, she should always have people she cares about or unfinished business."
Now Nathan Foster understood.
After Vincent finished speaking, he thought of the late-night call from Nathan Foster; it was certain that South Grant’s second personality had awakened.
"Do you need me to come over?"
"No need, you go to sleep." Nathan Foster said, then hung up the phone. He glanced at the cabinet and the hidden door, then lay back in bed, pretending to be unaware of anything.
About half an hour later, Nathan Foster heard some noises coming from the cabinet; he knew South Grant had returned.
After returning, South Grant closed the hidden door, shut the cabinet, entered the bathroom, gently wiped herself down, then lay back in bed.
