Chapter 38 Do Me A Favor
Cohen 's eyes flickered, but the smile on his lips kept expanding. "Why should I be guilty?"
Sadie narrowed her eyes and not answering his words with a smile.
The atmosphere suddenly became silent. The sunlight went into the window, the light fell to her side. Shoulder-lengthed hair seemed to be gilded with a layer of light, reflecting the innocent smiling face, so peaceful and yet so bizarre.
Cohen was a bit stunned. Although she was smiling, he felt that the smile was cold and scary.
Julian often showed such an expression. If you were unfamiliar with his, you will think he had a good temper.
His excellent temper had only been given to one person; that person was Sadie.
Sadie was forgetting Julian, forgetting everything in the Mccarthy family, but carrying the thing that he left on her.
Her sense of bland and introverted was beyond the age of maturity and indifference.
"Mr Cohen or I should call you Dr Cohen." Sadie suddenly spoke, "Am I sick?"
"Nothing." Cohen smiled with a nonchalant expression, but the dark tide raged in his heart.
He regretted taking this commission from Julian and Sadie was not as dumb as he thought; she was smart and very cunning.
Usually, performing personalities were the ones who showed such perversions, yet he was confident that she was not.
"Thank you very much, Mr Cohen, for coming over for a visit." Sadie blinked at him and deliberately gave a big yawn. "I still have some headache; can you go out?
There was a substantial rejection in the soft voice.
Cohen was wondering, Julian was really not good at teaching, he just made her as weird as him.
After exiting the ward, he stood in the corridor and pondered for a moment, took out the recording pen from his bag, opened it, walked into the ward again and said, "I will help you keep the secret, but you have to promise me one request."
"What request?" Sadie smiled to ask.
Cohen was very sensible, knew she would not cooperate and immediately chose to cooperate.
Initially, she wanted to pretend that she had been successfully washed out of her memory while she was hypnotized, but that would be too risky.
Julian was not that good at deception, he had already begun to suspect her, and once the thing started, it was hard to go back.
So, she needed an accomplice that she trusted.
This person was none other than Cohen Palmer.
"Do me a favour." Cohen leaned over and lowered his voice to whisper. "Get the research and development information of DHG Group's new product." Sadie was stunned. "Are you his best buddy?"
What kind of buddy was it that he wanted the research and development information of the new product of the DHG Group?
"We are buddies, but also competitors." Cohen said. After that, he raised his eyebrow and said to Sadie, "You can think about it."
DHG Group's new products had not yet been established, and many of the projects currently underway were already done and had a particular market share.
He gave this seemingly legitimate reason to keep her by Julian's side for at least a year, and by then, he was confident that she would recover all her memories. But he was just not sure if she would dare to gamble or not.
He was looking forward to seeing Julian struggle with Sadie; because she was the best student he had ever taught.
Sadie was enveloped in his gaze, hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and thinking about it.
Julian often took work home and never guarded against her. It was not difficult to get the information, the critical point, he should not suspect her.
The impression that she gave him seemed rather stupid.
Thinking of this, she tilted her head slightly and nodded with a smile. "Deal."
"Fine." Cohen put his left hand into his trouser pocket dashingly and turned off the recorder and walked out of the ward.
Sadie watched on the door close, and then Julian came in. She calmly asked him if they could leave.
Julian leaned forward and kissed her forehead, with a single sweet syllable "um" in his mouth.
When getting back to ZSB Garden, Sadie was ready to pretend that she didn't know she would be hypnotized by Cohen. She reluctantly followed them to the room on the second floor.
The cold grey and white colour made the atmosphere in the room a bit depressing, even though a large amount of sunlight shines could come through the window, it still cannot dispel the desertedness in the
room.
Pulling out the chair and sitting down, she casually picked up the book thrown on the tea table and opened it.
Cohen chatted with her as usual. During the conversation, her consciousness gradually became dazed, and a soft and low voice was heard in her ears. "Go to sleep. You are already tired." Sadie fell into a deep sleep.
Cohen picked up his phone and set the alarm clock, signalling to Julian to go out and have a talk.
Explaining his concerns, he briefly mentioned Sadie's current mental condition and reminded, "Are you sure you want to wash away her memories, all?"
Julian did not speak anything and looked worried about it.
Cohen coughed lightly, omitting his deal with Sadie, and said that. "The matter of being violated has not yet been identified. I suggest you start with some part of the memory and slowly wash away her memory."
Julian had agreed to the suggestion that Cohen had given.
His hypnosis process went very successful, Sadie made an appointment with Cohen to go to him alone once a week, and Julian did not have any objection to this.
The time was already afternoon, and Amina has prepared afternoon tea and snacks to the tearoom. Sadie sat down, wrinkled her nose and sniffed the scent.
What a familiar smell.
When Julian saw her action, he naturally reached out and took a piece of desserts and sent it to her mouth. "It's not hot anymore."
Sadie felt embarrassed, lowered his head and hesitantly opened his mouth.
Cohen shouted that he could not stand it, reached out and took a piece of desserts. He stuff into his mouth, looked at Sadie, and then left.
Once he left, the tearoom suddenly became quiet.
The sunset shined in, half of Julian's face was in the light and a half in the dark, the interlocking light and shadow outlined the lines of his face, it looked beautiful and charming.
When Sadie saw this, she was stunned.
She seemed to have seen this scene somewhere and remembered the taste of that dessert, which was the same as the one she had just eaten.
"Is it delicious?" Julian picked up a piece of tissue and carefully wiped away the crumbs left at the corner of her mouth. "What do you want to eat tonight, go out to eat or at home?" Sadie was startled. When she got back to sense, she lowered her head and licked the corner of her mouth. Then she said, "Eat at home."
"Well." Julian responded, called Amina over to explain the situation, then he took Sadie's hand and got up to leave the tea room.
The garden was blooming with many flowers that can't be named. They were beautiful.
Julian held her hand and slowly walked through the path paved with cobbles.
"What are we going to do?" Sadie was still very uncomfortable with Julian's actions but curious about what he was going to take her to see.
