414 I Won Because Of You!

Timothy seemed to have predicted that her first question would be that. He did not seem surprised and opened his mouth, but instead of answering, he said, “Do you want to talk here?”

Samantha was stunned for a moment before realizing that the office was hardly a suitable place to chat. After all, once they started chatting, there would be a lot of things that they would talk about.

She thought for a moment and said, “Let’s have a meal and chat while we eat.”

It was about time to get something to eat.

“Sure,” Timothy responded. He stretched out his hand very naturally and took Samantha’s hand.

Samantha’s first instinct was to break free, but she stopped that thought as soon as she had that and allowed him to lead her out.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the restaurant.

Samantha looked up and saw that it was the restaurant they used to dine in often. They made many good memories there.

They entered together after getting out of the car.

As soon as they took their seats, Timothy handed her the menu. “What would you like to eat?”

historical

Samantha smiled, “I’m fine with anything. You can order for me.”

Timothy gently tapped his fingertips on the tip of her nose and skillfully ordered some food with the waiter. Like before, all the food he ordered were her favorites.

Samantha tapped the table a few times with her fingers.

She was testing him on purpose, and there was nothing suspicious about Timothy for the moment.

Only the main personality would know those things...

Samantha picked up the glass of water and drank some before her dark pupils looked straight at the man. She said, “Can you answer my question now?”

The man’s gloomy eyes made eye contact with her and he replied in a low voice, “I sensed that you were in danger during the car accident, but he chose to stand by and watch. At that moment, I forced myself to break through the shackles and became sober.”

On the way there, Samantha thought about various possibilities and had taken that particular possibility into account as well.

Sure enough, it was her elaborate car accident that woke him up.

She unconsciously held the glass in her hand and asked, “Since you’re awake, why did your second personality come to see me in the ward?”

The man replied without hesitation, “Because I just woke up and my state was unstable. In addition to Harmony’s hypnosis, I was temporarily suppressed yet again.”

“Even though I was suppressed, I was conscious and I have memories of what happened after that.”

Samantha nearly had butterfingers as she gripped her glass of water.

In that case, did the main personality see everything when the second personality went to visit her in the ward? She had tried to make him fall in love with her by confessing to him on purpose, acting cutely, and behaving like a spoiled child.

Did he see the second personality kissing her?

She inexplicably felt as if she had been caught cheating!

Samantha gulped hard and laughed dryly as she tested the waters, “Then...did you hear my conversation with the second personality?”

“Yes.”

Samantha explained in a low voice, “What I said was just a strategy. You...understand, don’t you?”

There was a flash in Timothy’s eyes and he answered insipidly, “I know.”

Samantha heaved a sigh of relief. “What about after that?”

“He realized the influence you had on him and knew that he was about to lose control of me, so he decided to accept the final hypnosis to completely eliminate me.”

Timothy’s tone became even fainter. “The hypnosis lasts a month, and once it starts, it can neither be interrupted halfway nor be disrupted in any way whatsoever, otherwise there might be unpredictable changes.”

“That was why the second personality went with Harmony and the hypnotist to an island that the second personality bought. He wanted to make sure they wouldn’t be disturbed.”

Samantha frowned slightly.

That would explain why she could not find out where Timothy was. The second personality had already made all the preparations for himself over the years.

If he did not show up on his own initiative, she would probably have a hard time finding him. Even if she succeeded, the hypnosis would have long ended.

Samantha said, “Does that mean the hypnosis failed now that you’re back?”

“Yes.” Timothy looked at her with extreme tenderness. “The second personality would have succeeded if I didn’t wake up, but you’ve already woken me up, so I was fighting with him during the hypnosis.”

He reached out all of a sudden and placed his hand on the back of her hand to hold her.

“I won because of you.”

He had the driving force to wake up.

Samantha was silent for a second. “What about the second personality?”

Timothy said, “This hypnosis has already reached this stage and one of the personalities would have to disappear. He was gone when I woke up.”

That was the best possible result.

To eliminate the main personality, the second personality finally reaped the consequences and was too smart for its own good.

Nevertheless, she had the nagging feeling that things were going a little too smoothly.

Was it because she had been tricked too much and was overly sensitive?

Samantha took another sip of water and pondered for a while before asking the next question, “When did your illness start?”

They were very close when they were in a relationship previously and she did not notice anything wrong with him.

Had she known about it, she would not have been so shocked and in disbelief when she found out that he had multiple personalities.

Timothy answered without hesitation, “I used to be kidnapped and attacked often when I was a child. It happened so many times that my mind became very unstable. I just didn’t notice it.”

Samantha knew that Timothy had been kidnapped and attacked ever since he was young.

“And these kidnappings and attacks were all done by that one person to test whether I really had the genetic factor that makes me susceptible to the illness. At the same time, he also sent someone to my side to monitor my physical condition all the time and to wait for an opportunity to attack.”

...

The information in what he said was a bit much and Samantha had to put in some effort to digest it.

It turned out that those kidnappings and attacks that occurred so frequently when he was a child were not due to the Barkers’ wealth, as she initially assumed. It was done intentionally for a specific purpose.

Who was that person?

He also sent someone to be beside Timothy...

Samantha had a sudden thought. “Was Harmony the person that the man or whoever they are sent to be by your side?”

“Yes.”

“...You knew all along that there was something wrong with Harmony and yet you still allowed her to stay by your side?”

Given Timothy’s character, he would almost certainly be intolerant of Harmony’s continued presence, but according to Harmony, she had been with Timothy for many years.

Moreover, they were childhood sweethearts who grew up developing feelings for each other and loved each other deeply. Had they not been separated by Old Madam Barker, they would have been a match made in heaven.

The more Samantha thought about it, the more annoyed she became and she stared fiercely at Timothy.

Timothy’s tone remained indifferent. “It’s easier to deal with an enemy in plain sight rather than an enemy in the dark.”

...

Although that explanation made sense, Samantha still felt a little uncomfortable. Her black pupils stared right at him and she did not blink as she asked slowly, “Then do you feel nothing for Harmony? Nothing at all?”

There were times when a woman would only be satisfied if they had a clear answer.

When Harmony was showing off to Samantha before, the former said that the love she shared with Timothy was unwavering. That being the case, did Timothy genuinely have no feelings for Harmony at all?
