Chapter 647
Pitt opened the medical kit he carried with and took out the necessary tools for hypnosis.
"Katherine, can you hear me?"
Pitt's voice was very gentle, like the warm sunlight of spring, or the embracing waves of the ocean.
"Katherine, you are now in a very special place, entirely your own space. You can relax and open your eyes. Please, open your eyes and see what's around you."
With his continuous, soft urging, Katherine's eyelids slowly lifted.
Haley, standing to the side, was startled and watched her warily.
But Haley quickly found that Katherine's eyes were vacant, clearly under someone's control...
"From now on, please maintain a relaxed breathing rhythm. Breathe out, breathe in, and now you are back to being eighteen. You met a man, a handsome and charming man. You fell in love at first sight. You introduced him to your parents, and your parents arranged a wedding date for you. I want to ask you, what do you usually call your fiancé?"
Katherine's lips moved but she didn't speak.
Pitt remained patient; he knew that people with strong wills are hard to be guided by a hypnotist.
He continued. "Your fiancé loves you very much. He likes to call you Katherine or dear. What do you call him? He is right beside you now, hoping you will call him, to let him know you are always by his side."
"Martin."
Katherine's red lips slowly parted, saying the name.
Haley was stunned.
Martin.
Martin was Ivan's twin brother.
So it was true, really was!
Haley clenched her fingers, taking a deep breath, and quickly wrote a line on a piece of paper and handed it to Pitt.
Pitt glanced at it and continued to guide. "Your fiancé loves it when you call him Martin. But your fiancé has a brother named Ivan. Do you know Ivan?"
Katherine answered vacantly, "Yes."
"Ivan is your fiancé's brother. He gave you his heartfelt blessings for your wedding. But just as your wedding was about to start, Ivan suddenly disappeared. Katherine, do you know where did Ivan go?"
"He's dead."
Pitt's face changed sharply, and he turned to look at Haley.
Haley's breath caught for a moment. She quickly wrote another line and handed it over.
"Katherine, who did you say is dead?" Pitt asked slowly, "Are you sure he's dead? Do you know how he died?"
Katherine's eyes suddenly moved.
Pitt quickly took out a watch and waved it in front of her eyes for a few minutes until she slipped back into a deep hypnotic state.
"Ivan is dead," Katherine answered mechanically. "A month ago, he was sent abroad and died in a hail of bullets, his body was never recovered..."
"Impossible!"
Haley shouted in a low, uncontrolled voice, then quickly suppressed her inner anger and grief.
Haley tried to calm herself down, speaking each word deliberately, "Pitt, is it possible she wasn't hypnotized at all? Is she lying?"
Pitt shook his head and lowered his voice. "She is indeed hypnotized. She shouldn't be lying. At least from her perspective, everything she said is true."
"No, it can't be..."
Haley's tense mind was instantly shattered.
How could Ivan be dead? He couldn't be dead.
A man as strong and upright as him couldn't have died so senselessly.
Haley's face turned pale, and she collapsed weakly onto the hospital bed, with her eyes staring blankly ahead.
