I Only Want You novel Chapter 860

Elizabeth snorted, "You... are too amazing! You actually know what I'm thinking about?"

James smiled, "I'm not stupid. It's just a normal inferring question. You couldn't come to me without figuring out anything. This is not your style."

"Alright." Elizabeth sighed gloomily, "I'm wondering... why don't tell him now?"

James didn't expect that she would think this way. He was slightly stunned, "Tell me now?"

"Yeah." Elizabeth nodded, "As I said, I don't know when he can recover from his experiences. Even if we ask him, he will only say yes."

Hearing this, James nodded in agreement, "Xavier will really say yes." Xavier had always been gentle to others. Even if he didn't think it was good, he would hide his real thought and not say it.

"You also think so, don't you? What's more, I think that maybe he can get better soon after seeing the paintings."

"I... don't think he'll get better soon." James said.

That day, on their way home, she told him about it, so he knew the contents of those paintings. At that time, Xavier was desperate in heart, so the paintings represented his terrible state of mind.

If...

"You know the contents of the paintings as well. What if he will be stimulated?"

"I don't think so." Elizabeth said based on her own idea, "He was in a very difficult period at that time, and he might think differently from others. I once saw a TV show and learnt that if we want a person to drag himself out of the morass of despair, we can't tell him how beautiful and bright his future will be. Instead, we should let him know how sad and desperate he was in the past. In that case, he will subconsciously feel that he is living a better life and disentangle himself from the past."

"Is that so?" James was a little curious.

"Yeah, it seems to be like this. I can't remember the details. When I watched the TV show, I also felt that it was novel, just like what you are thinking now, and I almost couldn't believe it. However, the research proved that it was very effective. It seemed that some people who participated in the TV show really got better. Of course, everyone is different."

"But we are just ordinary people, and we don't have much experience. What if Xavier feels worse?"

"It... shouldn't be." Elizabeth retorted with uncertainty.

James glanced at her meaningfully and then continued to look at the road.

Elizabeth curled her lips and sighed with depression, "But, what can I do now? Zena is so annoying! Why did she suddenly want me to do this? Isn't she making things difficult for me?"

James snorted, "You shouldn't have gone to see her at that time."

"Yeah, I think so." Elizabeth nodded and then switched the conversation to some other subject, "She should let you go there. In this case, you would be the one who is in a dilemma." If so, she needn't to be so annoyed and troubled.

"Do you think I would go to see her?"

"Of course I know you wouldn't." Elizabeth shrugged her shoulders, "Zena also knew you wouldn't go there, so she wanted to see me." "But, just think of a way for me. I'm so irritated!" Elizabeth frowned, "I really can't keep secrets in my heart. Otherwise, I would feel so uncomfortable, as if my heart is being scratched by a cat. Can you understand?"

James wanted to tease her, so he said with a very calm face, "No, because I don't have any secret."

"You..." Elizabeth rolled her eyes at him in anger. She really wanted to say that he had been wronged by Xavier for so many years because of a misunderstanding, and that was his secret.

However, she did not say it. Although this matter had come to an end, she knew that James would feel bad if she mentioned it, and he would feel distressed for Xavier.

After all, he had been misunderstood, and he was no longer guilty because the misunderstanding had been clarified. But Xavier was different. Although he knew that he had wronged James, he did not feel better.

Elizabeth coughed, and reached out to point to the road ahead, "Don't look at me. Pay attention to the road."

James looked back after glancing at her meaningfully.

"Don't look at me like that." Elizabeth was a little helpless, "After thinking about it for a while, I think it's the better way." "Didn't Zena say that his first painting is also in the house? Van Gogh lived a hard life when he was alive, didn't he? Although I know that Xavier is not Van Gogh, you know what I mean, right?"

"What's more, although we haven't tried the method and no one we know has ever attended the TV show, we know that all the misunderstandings have been clarified, right? Xavier wants to live a better life, doesn't he?"

"Instead of waiting for him to recover from his experiences, we might as well help him. If he can disentangle himself from the past and meet the girl he likes earlier, his dream can be realized earlier. You don't want him to live a lonely life when he is old, do you?"

"Yeah." James nodded.

"So, why don't we do what I said?" Elizabeth was afraid that James would not agree, so she added, "I know that the effect may not be good, and maybe he will feel worse. However, I have to give him his first painting sooner or later. Anyway, even if he can get better one day, the process will be hard. But maybe he will be encouraged when he sees his painting."

"Well, let's not talk about this topic anymore." Hearing Elizabeth's chatter, James

interrupted her. Otherwise, she wouldn't stop talking until they got home.

"What?"

"Just do as you say."

Originally, Elizabeth thought that James would not agree with her, so she was somewhat stunned when she heard what he said, "Really?"

"Yeah, I'll call Xavier and make an appointment for you. You'd better meet each other... outside. What do you think?"
