Chapter 1170
“Are you done? Amelia, even after you kissed me like that, I don’t feel anything,” Warren said coldly and then walked away.
Amelia’s mouth went dry as a bitter feeling welled in her.
Once upon a time, she always said to him, “Enough. That’s enough.”
But now, he was the one saying, “Enough.”
It turned out that what was once such intense feelings could be erased, just like that. Even if he remembered their past, there were no emotions attached to it now.
Now, it was not a matter of him loving too deeply while she didn’t.
Instead, it was her feelings that had grown deeper while he had none left.
“What?” Rosalie widened her eyes and looked at Jonathan in astonishment. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard. “You said Warren went to find the hypnotist who hypnotized you back then?”
“Yes.” Jonathan nodded.
“He… What did he do?”

“If I’m not wrong, he might want to hypnotize his feelings for Amelia. After all, being rejected by Amelia like that must have been too painful for him,” Jonathan said.
“But Amelia has refused him before. He… should be able to bear it, shouldn’t he?” Rosalie muttered.
Jonathan laughed. “It’s different this time. If Amelia had simply refused Warren and never given him any hope, it wouldn’t have mattered how many times she did so. However, after Warren got injured in order to save Amelia, the overwhelming worry and concern she showed while staying by his side every day was equivalent to giving him hope.”
?
While saying that, he reached out and hugged Rosalie. He said in a low voice, “Such is human nature. If one is given hope before having it forcefully taken away, then the resulting despair is enough to not just kill one inside but push them over the edge into a breakdown, perhaps even to the point of being unable to live on!”
Rosalie’s heart clenched at his words. “So, you also had a breakdown back

then, didn’t you?”
Although she had been vague and not explicitly mentioned any
particular event, he understood that she was talking about his situation after she fell off the cliff.
“Yeah, I was a huge mess at that time. You could even say that I did almost go crazy. But my hypnosis was a passive choice, while Warren has now actively chosen it,” Jonathan said.
Rosalie suddenly felt distressed.
Although she had fallen off the cliff to keep him alive, that had left him to bear all the pain alone.
“Fortunately, you didn’t go crazy…” she murmured and took the initiative to hug him.
“Even if I really had gone crazy, I believe that I would definitely regain my sanity the moment I saw you,” he said.
“By the way, how did Warren find that hypnotist? Did he…” Rosalie thought of a possibility.
Jonathan’s answer confirmed her speculation.
“He went to the prison and visited Kurt.”
“That means he doesn’t have much feelings for Amelia because of the hypnosis now, right?” She recalled how Jonathan had been when he was hypnotized. Even though he still vaguely remembered some things between them, he had no feelings for her.
“I think so,” Jonathan said.
“Amelia is in Lofbury now. What if Warren…” Rosalie was worried. “I have to tell Amelia about this and let her know it’s no use begging Warren.”
Then, Rosalie took out her phone and hurriedly called Amelia.
But when she told Amelia about it, Amelia was extremely calm on the other end of her phone. “I already know this.”
“What? You do? Then Warren…”
“He has no feelings for me now. I’m just a familiar stranger to him. As for our past, it’s just a movie for him. Now that the movie is over, that’s it,” Amelia said.

Rosalie hesitated for a moment and said, “Amelia, in that case, why don’t you return to Striço first? We’ll think of another way. I’m afraid there won’t be any progress even if you remain there.”
“I think I’ll stay for a while. Maybe things will change again. After all, even if I went back to Strico now, I couldn’t do anything,” Amelia said.
Hearing this, Rosalie had no choice but to say, “Okay. Be careful and come back to Strico as soon as possible. If you need me, I can also head over to find you.”
“I’m fine by myself. If there’s no further progress, I will come back,” Amelia said.
After Rosalie finished the call, Jonathan said, “So, Amelia doesn’t want to come back to Strico?”
“Yes, she still intends to stay over there. But if Warren really doesn’t have feelings for her anymore, I am afraid that he may hurt her.” She was worried.
“Even if he is hypnotized and has had his feelings for her downplayed, it’s just hypnosis after all. Some feelings still exist even after one is hypnotized. Warren will not be able to bring himself to really hurt Amelia, so you can rest assured,” Jonathan said.
“Can I really rest assured?” Rosalie wondered in doubt.
However, with how things had progressed, she could only hope that what Jonathan said was true.
Amelia put away her phone and raised her hand to stroke her cheek.
It almost felt like the warmth Warren had left behind from his touch was
still there.
The phone call seemed to prove that what Warren had told her before
was true.
It turned out that he had completely let go of the relationship between them.
Then again, she was not surprised. If this relationship brought him nothing but pain, then it would only be natural to give up.
It was just that she thought he would gradually forget her in time; she never thought that he would resort to hypnotism.

Chapter 1170
Someone who once loved her so much now had not the slightest feeling when she kissed him. The thought of it had disappointment and loss surging through her.
But in addition to the loss, there was also another feeling spreading through her-pain.
She thought, “It’s because I still love him, isn’t it?”
Even now, she still clung to that feeling of love. It was even gradually growing, but he had none left.
The next night, when Warren completed a business deal and walked out of a high-end club in the city, Amelia stopped him. “Can we… talk again?”
He glanced at her indifferently. “I thought we already cleared up everything yesterday.”
