Chapter 1525 David was a little taken aback. He turned to look at Annie questioningly.
'Well, this is certainly different from what Annie told me," he thought. He did not usually accept children for counseling.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnnie knew why Corinne brought 'Bryan’, so she shrugged and spread out her hand helplessly. "What's the matter? A child's psychological problem definitely has something to do with his parents, right? Why can't Corinne and Bryan do the counseling together? Doctor David, you're a professional, so I'm sure this won't be a challenge for you at all." David raised an eyebrow and pursed his lips. "Of course they can." He turned back to look at 'Bryan' with his analytical eyes. "Annie, why don't you take Bryan to the dining room to drink his soda first? I'd like to speak alone with Miss Corinne about his condition.” Annie gladly did as he asked. She got up and took 'Bryan's' hand, but the little boy did not want to go with her at all. It took scoaxing from Corinne before he finally agreed to go with Annie to the dining room.
David made sure 'Bryan' was out of earshot before asking Corinne, "Miss Corinne, what problem do you think your son is having that made you want to bring him here for counseling?" Corinne narrowed her eyes and told him everything, starting from the day they went for a picnic.
"Last weekend, my sister-in-law and | took Bryan and his siblings out for a picnic. Halfway through the picnic, Bryan ran off by himself after seeing a kite he liked. | went looking for him the second | realized he was missing, and when | found him, | gave him a real scolding. | know | shouldn't have done that, but | was a nervous wreck.
"After that, he turned from a happy-go-lucky kid to one that is quiet and timid. He even looked scared and anxious when he was at home. I'm worried that I've traumatized him that day with my scolding." After she finished speaking, David rubbed his chin ousBLi, "Hmm... Generally speaking, kids don't really get traumatized by a parent scolding them, so I'm afraid it might be another reason. Miss Corinne, would it be okay if | speak to Bryan alone?" Since they were already there, Corinne had hoped they could finally get an answer to why the boy had a change of behavior.
Corinne nodded. "Of course. But | hope it won't take too long because he's been very sensitive lately." David smiled. "Don't worry. I'm a professional." He then got up and walked gracefully toward the dining room to speak to 1 Bryan".
Annie was asked to leave, so she slipped out of the dining room and sat next to Corinne. "Corinne, what do you think of Doctor David?" she asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was still too early for Corinne to form an opinion about David. She kept her gaze fixed on 'Bryan' to make sure he was okay.
At first, 'Bryan' looked guardedly at David. However, the man said something to him, and the boy gradually relaxed and talked to him.
"Look, Corinne! They look like they're getting along. You should talk to Doctor David, too. He's the real deal," said Annie.
Corinne raised an eyebrow and glanced sideways at her. "Me? Why do | need to talk to him?" Annie blinked at her innocently. "So that you'll feel better. You can treat him as an emotional dumpster. You can tell him all the sad thoughts that you've been keeping to yourself. That's what | do when | chere, and | always feel so much better after venting everything out. So what do you say, Corinne? Do you want to give it a try as well?" Corinne's lips twitched. "1 don't have any sad thoughts | need to vent out." Annie pouted. "I don't believe you! Corinne, you can't keep all the emotions you have about Uncle Jeremy's disappearance to yourself. You're going to explode if you do! Just talk to Doctor David, okay? | guarantee you'll feel better after a counseling session with him." Corinne chuckled. "111 only feel better if | can vent out my sadness and anger at the person who caused it. It doesn't work if it's other people. Is this why you kept on insisting that | meet this therapist friend of yours?"
