Chapter 46 Timothy explained , ' In psychology , we use hypnosis a lot . What Amelia's playing is like hypnotic music , Sure , it's a bit off because no one taught her , but she's got the right idea . " " Are you sure ? " Alexander asked . " Absolutely . I always use it in my counseling . Alexander went quiet . Upstairs , Sophia came out of the music room just as William stepped out of his bedroom . They both overheard the conversation . Did they just get busted ? Alexander spotted them and called them down . No way out now , so they slowly made their way downstairs to face Alexander . " Amelia , when did you learn this ? " Alexander asked . Actually , it was learned from Monica , but she couldn't bring it up . William jumped in , " Amelia saw it in a video , thought it was cool , and picked it up . " Sophia nodded . " No way , " Timothy said . William's story might fool Alexander , but Timothy was a pro and not easy to trick . Alexander and Timothy exchanged looks . Even though it seemed too weird , Amelia had never lied before . Ruby , standing nearby , also thought it was strange and said , " A few days ago , it wasn't like this . How did it change so fast ? " Alexander had no clue what went wrong either . Timothy looked at Sophia , shaking his head . This didn't make any sense . Learning professional hypnotic music was distinct from other genres . Without a professional teacher , merely watching videos wouldn't suffice unless she was a true prodigy . But he had heard Amelia play before , and it was totally different . 1/3 3:44 pm PPP Chapter 46 He knew something was off , but it wasn't the right time to say more in front of the kid , so he gave Alexander a look . Alexander got the hint , nodded , and said to Ruby , " Ruby , let's wrap it up for today . Thanks for your help . " " Alright , I'll head out then . " Ruby also felt something was off , but she knew Amelia was different from other kids , so she didn't push it and left . Timothy gently pulled Sophia in front of him and said , " Amelia , it's been a while . I heard you spoke recently . How about we have a chat ? " Sophia thought for a moment and nodded . Timothy didn't want to make the little girl uncomfortable by taking her away from everyone in the living room . So , he sat down with her , played with her toys , and asked , " Can you try saying something to me now ? " Sophia shook her head immediately . She definitely couldn't speak . If she did , they'd be found out . When Amelia came back , she wouldn't be able to talk . How would they keep up the act ? Nope , she couldn't speak . Timothy kept his warm smile . " That's okay . How about we learn some new ways to respond ? " Sophia thought about it . With her sister's obedient nature , she'd definitely agree . So , she nodded again . Alexander watched from the sofa nearby , thinking that since his daughter could speak before , it was a good sign . And even though Timothy seemed a bit offbeat , he was a professional psychologist . With his help , his daughter would surely get better soon . So , he decided to skip going to the office and waited for Timothy to finish . Timothy was super patient with the kids . He usually worked with Amelia for an hour , but today , he added an extra half hour . When they were done , he let Amelia go play and followed Alexander to the study . Joseph closed the door behind them . Alexander immediately asked , " How is it ? Is Amelia's condition improving ? " 2/3 1:44 pm Chapter 46 PP Timothy nodded . " Her condition is improving , and not just a little , " What do you mean ? " " Before , when I talked to her , she was always very resistant . Today , I added an extra half hour , and she didn't resist at all . And when I talked to her , she responded . Before , her gaze was always unfocused , staring blankly at one spot . But now , when I talk to her , her eyes move , she's thinking . Although she hasn't spoken , she responds to everything I say . " " Does this mean she'll recover soon ? " Alexander asked eagerly . " No ... " Timothy frowned even more , looking at Alexander several times, hesitant to speak . This was very unlike Timothy's usual style . Alexander had a bad feeling but still said , " Just say it , what's going on ? " Timothy thought for a moment and asked , " Haven't you noticed that Amelia is different from before ? " " What exactly are you trying to say ? " Alexander was getting anxious , his tone becoming impatient . " Just say it . " " OK ! " Timothy nodded . " I know Amelia's piano skills from before . Her sudden proficiency in this genre suggests she's not the same Amelia . Her personality and behavior also feel completely different , like a whole new person unrelated to Amelia . " " What do you mean ? " Alexander still didn't understand . Chapter Comments LIKE
