Chapter 1433 The Nightmare


    Cecilia was so close to him that she could feel his warm breath, and she instinctively took a step back.


    "I going to bed now."


    "Alright."


    Nichs gradually loosened his grip.


    Upon returning to her bedroom, Ceciliay down once again to sleep.


    When Nichs left, he closed the door behind him.


    Lying in bed, Cecilia could heard the sound of running water from the neighboring bathroom, and sleep eluded her no matter what.


    "What on earth is going on with me?" she mumbled to herself.


    For reasons unknown, she always felt a certain resistance toward Nichs.


    Ever since waking up a year ago, Cecilia felt as though she had forgotten many things. The only memories that seemed to remain were those rted to Nichs.


    Thetter mentioned that she had been in a car ident before, which had resulted in some memory loss. She spent the past year abroad, primarily to receive treatment. In the wee hours of the morning, Cecilia finally fell asleep.


    Not long after she fell asleep, she experienced a nightmare. In her dream, a man bearing an uncanny resemnce to Nichs appeared, but he had a terrible temper. Cecilia had walked over and asked him, "Who are you?"


    With eyes rimmed red, the man looked at her. "Have you forgotten who I am?"


    There was only confusion in Cecilia''s eyes.


    Suddenly, the man embraced her. "Do you have any idea how long I''ve been searching for you?" he said.


    After he finished speaking, he was about to forcefully do something to her.


    Struggling, Cecilia demanded, "Let go of me, let go!"


    She was jolted awake from the nightmare, her body drenched in a cold sweat.


    "Why did I have such a dream?"


    Cecilia took a deep breath, slowly calming herself down.


    Once she had calmed down, she didn''t dare to sleep anymore. She turned on the light and began scrolling through her phone aimlessly.


    During that time, she had looked at quite a number of job advertisements.


    Cecilia was proficient in foreignnguages, although she couldn''t recall the jobs she had undertaken. When she saw job advertisements


    for secretarial and clerical works


    well as for foreignnguage,


    as


    trantion, she couldn''t help but feel intrigued.


    At that moment, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Nichs briskly walked in.


    "What''s wrong, Ceci?"


    Cecilia was first startled by the intrusion, but upon seeing that it was Nichs, she quickly put away her phone.


    "It''s nothing. I just had a nightmare."


    "What nightmare?" Nichs sat beside her, patiently asking.


    Cecilia didn''t hold back anything, sharing with Nichs everything that happened in her dreams, and the people she encountered.


    She failed to notice the gradually darkening of Nichs'' expression. Instead, she asked him, "Isn''t it strange? Why would I dream about someone who looks just like you?"


    Nichs reached out to tuck the loose fringes behind her ear, then slowly began to speak.


    "Perhaps it''s a recurrence of your illness," he suggested, concerncing my voice. "Once dawn breaks, I''ll call the doctor toe and examine you."novelbin


    After hearing this, Cecilia dismissed the idea of seeing a doctor. "No need. Didn''t I just see a doctorst month? I don''t want to see the doctor again."


    She underwent psychiatric evaluations monthly, but now, for some reason, she was feeling a sense of resistance.


    “Listen, only by seeing the doctor can your illness be cured."


    "But I don''t feel there''s anything


    hme


    wrong with me mentally now," said


    Cecilia. Then, recalling the job advertisements she had seen online,


    she pleaded, "Nichs, I really,


    to go out and work. Can I please look for a job?"


    Cecilia sighed. "You''re always going back to our home country for work, leaving me here all alone with no one to talk to. It''s no surprise that I''m having psychological problems, right?" .


    Nichs saw the determination in her eyes, realizing that if he continued to stop her, it would only arouse her suspicion. "Alright." Nichs changed the subject. "But we still need to see the doctorter, otherwise my mind won''t be at ease." "Fine." Once Cecilia received his approval, her eyes lit up with delight.
