Chapter 1526 Annie looked at her with pity and annoyance. "Of course | know you'll only feel better if you can vent it out on Uncle Jeremy, but he's still missing, Corinne! Francine and | are really worried that you're going to explode one day!" Corinne thought of the man in the wheelchair who seemed to be having the tof his life. "Well, | won't have to keep all those emotions in for long..." Annie was a little taken aback. "What do you mean? Corinne, are you saying that...there's a lead on Uncle Jeremy's whereabouts?" Before Corinne could answer her, David cin with 'Bryan’, who immediately threw himself into Corinne's arms.
Corinne stroked his head and looked up at David. "How did it go? Did you find out the reason for his behavior change?" David nodded. "Yes, but | need to speak to you in private. Would you mind followingupstairs?" Corinne instinctively feared for the worst, that her son indeed had skind of serious mental health problem.
Frowning, she passed 'Bryan' to Annie and then got up to follow David upstairs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDavid led her to his counseling office, where he normally had one-on-one counseling with his clients.
After sitting behind his desk, he waved her over. "Have a seat, Miss Corinne." Corinne pulled out her chair and sat down. "What is this about? Is my son's condition serious?" she asked anxiously.
David shook his head. "After talking to your son, | concluded he's just shy. So there's no need for him to have a counseling session." a 'Shy? That's impossible. | gave birth to him and raised him, so how could I not know my own son's personality?" thought Corinne.
After all, the real Bryan had always been mischievous. He could make friends with anyone he just made. ‘Bryan’ could never be called 'shy'.
What Corinne wanted to know was why 'Bryan' had been acting so quiet and so timid for the past few days.
‘Maybe this therapist isn't as good as Annie says he is,' she thought with a frown.
David could tell what Corinne was thinking about him. He smiled and said," Miss Corinne, do you not agree with my diagnosis?" "No, I'm not. | think your diagnosis of my son is wrong. He's always been an extrovert since he was born, so his shyness for the past few days is unusual behavior, to say the least," said Corinne gruffly.
"But through our talks, | didn't find any signs of his extroversion. Plus, it wasn't strauma that made him feel like his his an unfamiliar place, but it's exactly because it is indeed an unfamiliar place to him," said David calmly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorinne had no idea what he was talking about.
"What do you mean? How can he suddenly feel like his his unfamiliar when he lived there all his life? Did he have a memory loss or something?" At the words 'memory loss’, Corinne's tone becvehement.
David was perplexed, too. There was just something he could not figure out.
"Miss Corinne, | didn't mean that. Uh... What | meant is... Is there a possibility that the kid downstairs isn't your real son at all?" During his talk with 'Bryan’, he discovered a lot of contradictory points. It was as if the boy was trying to hide something from him. Nonetheless, the boy's mental health was under no threat whatsoever.
David's question shocked Corinne.
