Chapter 719
"Mister Hart, can I have a moment with you alone?" "Doctor Jenny, what is it that you can't discuss in front of me?"
Vicky asked.
Doctor Jenny smiled. "Of course, I'll talk to you about your condition, but I need to learn more about what Mister
Hart sees from his perspective as well. What you can describe is how you subjectively feel, and I want to know what
Mister Hart thinks. As for why I'd like to speak with him alone, that's because there might be things that he finds
difficult to talk about in front of you or that he might not be able to describe objectively... Do you understand?"
Vicky nodded. "Alright, then. I'll head back to my room."
Doctor Jenny and Tyler did not talk in the living room and instead did so in his study.
As soon as the door closed behind them, Doctor Jenny deadpanned, "Mister Hart, I'm afraid Miss Shaw isn't just

He narrowed his eyes darkly. "What?"
"According to my experience, she's suffering from depression, a form of mental illness. The trigger for the
nightmares was the series of events that had happened recently, and she can't process them mentally." Doctor
Jenny sighed. "Indeed, Miss Shaw has gone through something a woman her age should've never gone through.
If we don't treat it as soon as possible, she might start to live in her world and refuse any form of contact with the
outside world. If it gets worse, she'll develop a more severe mental condition."
Tyler pursed his lips. "How do we treat it?"
"My advice is that Miss Shaw needs to get out of her room. Staying home all the time will only make her more
depressed and more fearful of the world outside. At the moment, she's in desperate need of company." Doctor
Jenny shot him a stern look. "She feels insecure about the whole world now, and if she's left alone, she'll
instinctively become paranoid out of fear. If you're busy, it's best to get her family or friends to stay by her side to
minimize the fear she feels." After a pause, she added, "Of course, it'll be best if you can stay with her, Mister Hart.
I can tell that Miss Shaw trusts and relies on you.".xo
After prescribing Vicky some medication, Doctor Jenny left.
Vicky realized that Tyler was not as busy as he had not gone to work for three days in a row.
Worried that he might be staying home for what he did to the two foreign men, she asked him about it, and he
would often brush it off by saying that he wanted to rest for a few days.
It was normal for him to rest, but she felt confused about how he had been treating her.
He would kiss her, act intimate and sleep with her in his
arms every day. There were a few times when she was ready to offer him her first time, but his action had not
escalated so far.

Vicky could no longer tell what Tyler wanted.
One day, Vicky was watering the plants on the balcony.
Tyler lived in a great apartment but looked dull without any decoration.
When Vicky mentioned it a few days ago, Tyler immediately ordered flowers and plants from a florist.
With some greenery in the apartment, she was in a lighter mood, and with Tyler by her side every night, she no
longer had as many nightmares. She would still have nightmares but would find herself in his arms whenever she
opened her eyes.
As time went by, she was no longer as frightened.
She knew that Tyler stayed home to keep her company, and she felt increasingly guilty as she could not repay the
favor.
Just then, she heard the familiar sound of footsteps approaching. Without turning her head, she already knew who
it was.
She set the water jug down and turned to flash him a smile.
She was just about to say something when he silenced her with a smile.
