Stop It She's Remarrying by Stellar Strands

Chapter 875

“It’s okay. You go see the doctor. Don’t worry about me. I’m not a kid anymore,” Fia said with a blush. It felt so

sudden and uncomfortable for her to see Conrad treating her so gently and lovingly.

A short while after Conrad entered the study, Marcus brought in some milk and nuts as snacks. After drinking his

milk, he lazed on the chair next to Conrad’s, pulling a long face. He asked Conrad with a stern, serious glance, “So

what happened?”

“Something happened last night. It had made her quite agitated, greatly affecting her emotions.” After a pause,

Conrad said, “I’ve done something behind her back. This morning, a friend she’s very close with gave her a call. I

think they had a fight.”

Marcus nodded and asked, “And?”

“When I went back to the bedroom, she was sitting by the window, looking at the scenery outside. She seemed to

have become overly innocent and naive, seemingly clueless about the ugly, bad things in the world. Not only that,

her behavior and attitude had reverted to how it was when we just got married…”

Upon hearing this, Marcus’ face turned sullen.

“Your wife’s condition has worsened to a point beyond my estimation. She is not only seeing hallucinations but her

memory is also being repressed at the moment.”

“Why did this happen, doctor? She’d gotten better after your treatment.”

Conrad could not handle the news Marcus had relayed to him. It was really weird too. Although her memory was

repressed and inhibited, she was treating him very well. She seemed very joyful and healthy too.

Nonetheless, Conrad knew the risk of leaving her untreated. When it came to Fia’s life and well -being, he could not

afford to take any risk. It had frightened him when he saw her reach out of the window to “touch the scenery”.

“Mr. Maxwell, mental disorder is not something we can easily treat in a day or two. The patient may look fine and

healthy now but it’s because she’s repressing her demons. When the emotional trauma and stress become too

unbearable, her psyche would undergo a massive breakdown, resulting in various adverse effects as a coping

mechanism. Like Mrs. Maxwell’s repressed memory. If left unmonitored and untreated, she will also be troubled by

mood swings and severe hallucinations. In one instance, she will seem fine and happy but in the next she would

become overly wary of people around her, thinking that everyone wants to harm her. If things get dire, she might

even resort to committing suicide or murder.”

After giving Conrad a lengthy, somber explanation, Marcus took a breather before continuing, “I suggest we admit

her into a psychiatric hospital so she can receive full treatment.”

Conrad glowered at Marcus and said, “She’s not crazy! You have the ability to treat her. There’s no need to send

her to a mental asylum! I will not allow her to go through more. torment!”

“You can pick any psychiatric hospital that you are comfortable with. I’ll then work under their employment to treat

her one-on-one.”

Hearing this, Conrad furrowed his brows and gave it some thought before speaking.

“I still don’t agree with this idea. I’m not sending her to a mental asylum. However, I can get a villa for you in our

neighborhood so you can live nearby and treat her.”

With a bitter smile, Marcus said, “Mrs. Maxwell’s condition is quite unstable right now. She can lose control of

herself at any time. She needs to be monitored twenty-four hours a day, round the clock.”

Conrad frowned upon hearing that. He was not comfortable with letting an outsider live with. them under the same

roof.

Still, Marcus was a doctor. So he was willing to concede if he could make Fia better.

“Mr. White, if you don’t mind living in our unimpressive home, you could stay with us until Fia gets better.”

“Oh, you jest, Mr. Maxwell. How could the home of the great Conrad Maxwell be ‘unimpressive “?” Marcus gave a

sarcastic smile before saying, “You go downstairs and provide your wife some company. I need time to pack up my

stuff.”

Returning to the living room, Conrad saw Fia sitting on the sofa and staring blankly at the space in front of her. He

approached her and asked cautiously, “What’s wrong?”

“Oh, nothing.” Fia regained her clarity in an instant and beamed at him adorably. “It’s just I feel bored when you’re

not around.”

Conrad cursed at himself for being so careless. He should have asked Sophia to come along so she would have

some company.

“So what did the doctor say?” Fia meekly held Conrad’s hand and asked in concern. Her timid behavior was just like

how she was when they got married three years ago.

Seeing her like this, Conrad felt bad for her. He now knew just how difficult it had been for her to handle and adjust

to her new life back then. She was chosen as a replacement to marry a man who she did not love. The hurt and

dejection she felt must have been so hard on her. No one knew how difficult she had it and she had no one to

confide in. Not only that, she had to also bear with and entertain his temper, pacifying him every single day.

“It’s just a little difficult to treat. That’s all.” He held her hand as he knelt in front of her. “Fia, the doctor said that I

have to undergo a long-term treatment. And we’ll need you, my wife, to cooperate with us too.”

Looking at his glittering, amber eyes, Fia nodded without hesitation. “I’ll give him my full cooperation.”

“To monitor my condition, the doctor will have to stay with us for some time. Are you okay with that?”

“He’ll live under the same roof as us?”

Fia did not understand why the doctor needed to stay with them. There were, after all, plenty of other villas in the

neighborhood. Could he not stay in those villas and commute daily?
