Chapter 1072: Chapter 1043: What Psychological Issue is the Aftermath of an Affair Chapter 1072: Chapter 1043: What Psychological Issue is the Aftermath of an Affair Elder Brother tossed the card while he was on the phone, striding out before Mina Fernandez could say anything else.
Kiara had only given Elder Brother a hint, and the rest was all his own doing, which was just enough to make Mina Fernandez believe without letting her take the slightest advantage of him, in his own words.
Giving her a penny would be too much.
Kiara was accompanying her sister-in-law at the Guild Hall, getting a neck and shoulder massage as if nothing had happened.
When the massage was almost done, Kiara waved the masseuse away, and her sister-in-law lay on the bed sprinkled with flower petals, her eyes half-closed without showing any emotional change, even her brows were relaxed.
“Let me tell you a joke, sister-in-law. Did you know, in the future, many beauticians will be graduates of my field? After graduation, unable to find suitable jobs, they come to work in beauty salons, earning quite a bit each month.”
“Oh?” Sister-in-law opened her eyes.
“You think it’s strange, don’t you? Actually, it meets society’s demands. Those who can afford places like this are mostly economically stable, high-income women. They say it’s for beauty and health, but they also need someone to listen to their stress. If the masseuse understands a little psychology, the communication is even more effective.”
The fees at high-end women’s guilds are not low, and the quality of the staff varies greatly.
“What’s there to talk about with beauticians?” Sister-in-law didn’t quite understand.
She regularly took care of herself but seldom talked about her personal matters.
“High-income women don’t want to talk about workplace matters after leaving their jobs; they prefer to find a place to gossip about family matters, complaining about mothers-in-law and discussing their children and such.”
“From what you’re saying, my life seems too comfortable,” Sister-in-law said sadly.
Compared to the average noble lady, her days were indeed too good.
Her in-laws were very good to her, and she herself was busy with work, rarely involved in family matters. Her two sons were excellent, leaving her little to worry about; coming to a place like this, she didn’t even have the chance to complain about her family.
One born in trouble dies in ease, and it was because her life was going too smoothly that a woman like Mina Fernandez took advantage of her vulnerability.
“There’s nothing wrong with being comfortable. Many people yearn for this comfort but can’t achieve it.”
Sister-in-law closed her eyes again. She pretended not to understand the deeper meaning in Kiara’s words and instead moved her fingers, trying to change the subject.
“I don’t know why, but today my hand feels a bit numb. Later, I’ll have to ask the masseuse to massage it again.”
Kiara narrowed her eyes; hand numbness had already appeared, hadn’t it?
It was more serious than she had anticipated…
This was also the reason she had come out with her sister-in-law, to offer her some psychological counseling.
Just at this critical moment, Mrs. Kiara’s phone rang.
“Susi, what’s up? Oh, someone wants to consult me? What does she want to know?”
Sister-in-law heard Kiara’s phone conversation and, hearing it was about a professional matter, got up to go out for coffee, leaving the space for Kiara.
But Kiara’s next sentence successfully kept sister-in-law there.
“The aftermath of an affair?”
Kiara said this while looking at her sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law also stopped.
At this juncture, such topics seemed especially sensitive.
“Oh, the client starts to suspect her husband of cheating after something happened, even without any evidence, and she lacks a sense of security? Are you saying she made several different pieces of intimate clothing and checks every day whether her husband has changed clothes outside?”
Kiara would say one thing and then look at her sister-in-law.
On the other end of the phone, Susi asked in confusion, “Kiara, what’s with you today? Why do you repeat everything I say?”
It seemed as if she was intentionally saying it for someone else to hear. Normally, when Susi mentioned something like this, Kiara would just grunt in acknowledgment and move on to whether she would take the case or not.
“When it comes to the aftermath of an affair, it’s a trust issue caused by a lack of emotional security, which can lead to panic and anxiety, and in the later stages, even insomnia, palpitations, numbness of the limbs, and some patients also show physical reactions like flushed faces. The damage caused by an affair is not only emotional but also a loss of a sense of security.”
“Who are you setting up this time? Go ahead, let Dr. Clark begin your performance!” Susi seemed to understand something and decided to give Kiara her time, listening patiently.
“To heal the scars of an affair and refill that sense of security, many people comfort themselves by saying it’s no big deal if you think about it differently, telling women to either endure or make a clean break. But the first thing that should come to mind when encountering such issues should be professionals like us. People come to psychologists even for small work issues; why then must they bear marital troubles on their own?”
“Mmhmm, you have a big chest, so whatever you say is right.” Susi could only go along with Kiara at this point.
“Mindfulness-based stress reduction therapy can help manage emotions. When faced with insurmountable challenges, seek help from professionals, because many people don’t control their emotions when the pain first happens. By the time they turn to us later with psychological issues, it’s much more troublesome to deal with.”
“Okay, Dr. Clark, I give up on you. You can set people up even over the phone. Should I charge you a prop fee? Are you using me as a prop to treat someone?”
“No money, but tell your patient I’ll take the case. The price remains the same as always.”
After hanging up the phone, Kiara smiled slightly at her sister-in-law, “Do you want to ask me about the fee?”
The conversation just now had made some things clear to her sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law lifted her hand, which had felt numb, “This, is it a psychological issue?”
She had just felt numbness in her hand and was considering asking for another massage.
Kiara nodded, worried that her sister-in-law might react to the situation, she had followed her. Affairs are like a guillotine over a marriage. Her elder brother’s “affair” had been an unsuccessful scheme by Mina Fernandez.
Her elder brother had upheld the bottom line of his marriage, but the whole affair had given the sister-in-law a substantial shock. Though she appeared strong on the surface, it was natural to be impacted emotionally.
The sudden numbness was a physiological response brought on by psychological trauma.
For a woman, changing jobs at thirty and divorcing at forty are significant life changes. Of course, the sister-in-law wouldn’t divorce, but the incident had left her feeling a sense of crisis.
Kiara concluded that the psychological issue Mina Fernandez ended up with was ailurophobia, and the state her sister-in-law was in could already be considered fear of separation syndrome.
Because of caring too much, there was a fear of loss–Mina Fernandez feared for her life and health, while the sister-in-law feared for her marriage and home.
Humans are humans, not gods.
“Kiara, am I being too sentimental? Nothing really happened, and what I have is still so much, but just because of this uncertainty, I feel so upset. Shouldn’t I be stronger?”
Kiara held her and patted her back, “Would you tell your patients that they got sick because they weren’t careful and their will wasn’t strong enough?”
