He Clings to Me Every Night-Chapter 675 - Daniel Marshall Cries
Chapter 675: Chapter 675 Daniel Marshall Cries
Suddenly, Daniel Marshall opened his eyes, catching Olivia Jenkins’ gaze before she had time to look away.
Daniel moved closer to Olivia, his domineering aura almost palpably brushed against her face, “Wife, can’t you sleep?”
Without any hesitation, Olivia casually said, “No!”
“Are you afraid of me?”
“No!”
“Sleep, I won’t do anything inappropriate, but I just want to hold you in my sleep. It’s the only way I feel secure; I’m scared you’ll leave me again.”
Olivia paused for a moment, cautiously asking, “Can’t you sleep? Are you worried about nightmares?”
“Seeing how distant you’ve become, I was pretending to sleep, just to make you feel a bit more at peace.”
Olivia’s eyelashes fluttered gently, and her body gradually relaxed.
Suddenly, she, too, wrapped her arms around Daniel and snuggled up against him, “Sleep, I won’t leave.”
“Wife, goodnight!”
“Dear, goodnight!”
Before Olivia could finish her sentence, Daniel had already leaned down and kissed her on the forehead.
A few seconds later, a faint smile appeared on Olivia’s lips.
She closed her eyes, holding Daniel tightly.
With his wife holding him, Daniel felt a little more reassured. Heeding her advice, he closed his eyes to sleep, too.
…
Professor Winnie’s private studio.
Daniel and Olivia sat across from Professor Winnie. freёwebnoѵel.com
In merely a day, Daniel’s demeanor had notably become more relaxed, “Last night, I probably fell asleep around 11 o’clock. I woke up at 6:30 in the morning. No nightmares, and I felt pretty good.”
Professor Winnie nodded, “That’s a good result. Support and encouragement are really needed during therapy. I hope you two continue to maintain this. Today, I’ll be doing psychological therapy for you, which might cause some discomfort. We’ll continue to observe the situation for another week. If the quality of sleep remains good, I won’t prescribe any medications.”
Daniel blinked, glanced at Olivia, and out of nowhere, Olivia took his hand, giving him a look of approval.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Daniel’s handsome face, “Understood, thank you, Professor Winnie.”
“Mr. Marshall, please lie down on the sleeping chair.”
Daniel obeyed Professor Winnie’s instructions and lay down on the sleeping chair.
Professor Winnie said, “Close your eyes; this environment is safe and quiet. You have the company of your wife. Mr. Marshall, you may sleep now.”
About five minutes later, Professor Winnie turned off the lights, and the studio became pitch-black.
Suddenly, a light akin to high beams was aimed directly at Daniel, and the sound of a car was also discernible.
Instinctively, Daniel sat up, his eyes squeezed shut even tighter, and he unconsciously used his hand to block the harsh light. His thoughts were immediately flooded with the scene of Charmy Bennett’s car accident. Reflexively, Daniel tried to save Charmy but caught nothing in his grasp. Under the stress of his psychological defenses, Daniel started crying.
Professor Winnie turned off the simulation of the high beams and the car noise, switched on the normal lighting, “Mr. Marshall, you just re-experienced the traumatic scene. In actuality, Charmy has already passed away, and there’s no way you could have saved her. It wasn’t your fault, you don’t need to blame yourself. It’s the accident that took her away.”
Still weeping, Daniel shook his head, “No, it was my fault. I reacted too slowly, failed to pull her away. The person who should have been hit by that car was me.”
“Charmy is no longer with us, and she won’t blame you. She would like you to live well, she’d want you to be happy.”
“It’s my fault. I didn’t protect her.”
“That’s not the case. Charmy has her child with her, she’ll be very happy in another world also.”
Daniel remained silent, still crying, his emotional state poor. He was still deeply immersed in remorse.
