The Hypnotic Game Behind the
Starlight
Chapter 1
Liam and I were reborn at the same time.
In our past life, we were inseparable, loving
each other until we were old and gray.
This time around, I was eagerly anticipating
him proposing to me just like he did before.
But instead, he hired a hypnotist to erase my
memories, and then he turned around and
married my half–sister, Brittany.
“Madison, in the last life, Brittany was
married off to a foreign country where she
suffered terribly and died. I don’t want her to

go through that again, so I have to marry
her.”

“I don’t want to hurt you, so after the
hypnosis, you’ll forget about me. Once I help
Brittany out of danger, I’ll find the hypnotist
to restore your memories. Then I’ll divorce her
and marry you in style.”
Seeing that his mind was made up, I didn’t
hesitate and agreed to the hypnosis.
He didn’t know that once this hypnosis began,
the memories couldn’t be recovered at all.
In five days, I would completely forget him.

“The hypnosis is complete, Mr. Faulkner.”
The hypnotist put away his pocket watch.
Liam Faulkner looked at me, having just
completed the hypnosis, his eyes full of
unease.
“I know you don’t like Brittany. You must be
angry that I’m marrying her.”
“But don’t worry, I would never do anything
to hurt you. You’re the heiress, so being
married off to a foreign country will definitely
never happen to you. Brittany is just the
illegitimate daughter of the Campbell family.
If I don’t help her, she will die in a foreign

land again.”

“I really can’t bear it. Can you understand
me?”
I stared at him, my eyes a little dazed.
I didn’t know when this man, who had always
been so loving to me, had started to feel
sorry for Brittany.
He knew perfectly well that Brittany’s mother
had threatened my mom with ?
death, which
forced her to agree to my dad bringing
Brittany back to the Campbell family.
Because of that, my mom passed away
depressed.
He also knew that ever since we met, Brittany
had always snatched things that were
supposed to be mine. I had always resented
L
her.
But now he wanted to protect her with all his
heart.
Seeing that I didn’t speak, Liam furrowed his
brow slightly, looking a little flustered.
“You’ve been hypnotized and will soon forget
about me. I promise you won’t be sad
because I’m marrying someone else.” “When
it’s all over, I’ll find the hypnotist to restore
your memory. You’ll forget what happened
during this time, and we can go back to the
way we were.”
The hypnotist next to him was about to say
something, but Liam interrupted him.
“Alright, that’s enough from you.

I knew what the hypnotist wanted to say.
Hypnosis doesn’t make you lose your memory
immediately. It slowly makes you lose your
memory under psychological suggestion.
But with such a long and deep hypnosis, the
memory could not be restored.
I looked at Liam and smiled.
“Since you’ve already made up your mind and
confessed to her, you don’t need to keep
explaining it to me. Just make sure you can
handle the consequences.
دو
Seeing that I wasn’t angry, Liam breathed a
sigh of relief, a hint of a smile appearing in
his deep eyes.
“Since I’m going to do it, I’m naturally
confident. Madison, don’t worry, I can handle
the consequences.
“”
I was about to say something when a sharp
pain suddenly shot through my head. My
vision went black, and my body fell backward
uncontrollably.
Liam quickly grabbed me, his face anxious.
“Does your head hurt? I checked, the
hypnosis won’t hurt your body. I’ll go find a
doctor to take a look at you right now.”
As he said that, he was about to pick me up.
I reached out and held him back, swaying
unsteadily, my mind blank for a moment.
Instinctively, I asked, “What doctor? Why are
you here?”
Hearing my words, Liam paused, seeming to understand something, a hint of joy flashing
in his eyes.
He immediately let go of me.
“Madison, I’m here to propose to your sister.
We’ve decided to be together. She’s marrying
me in five days. From now on, you have to
call me brother–in–law.”
I was stunned for a few seconds before
realizing that the hypnosis was taking effect,
making me forget what had just happened.
But Liam thought I had forgotten everything.
Looking at the joy in Liam’s eyes, my heart
couldn’t help but ache.
But on the surface, I forced a smile.
Since he wanted to act, I would play along
with him. It was a way to settle our feelings
from both lives.
“Congratulations, you’re finally getting your
wish.”
At this moment, Brittany came running over
and hooked her arm around Liam’s.
She stood between us, her eyes red, looking
aggrieved.
“Sis, aren’t you the one who looks down on
<
people who ruin other people’s relationships
the most?”
“You and Liam are getting married, and
you’re still meeting him in private. How is that
different from the people you hate?”
Liam’s face darkened.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Your sister and I are
innocent. Nothing happened!”
He subconsciously defended me, and Brittany
immediately burst into tears.
She looked at me.
“I know you’ve always looked down on me.
Maybe in your eyes, I should give you
everything. But not Liam. He’s the man I love
the most.”
And he only loves me. I’m going to marry
him no matter what. Please have some self-
awareness. Don’t meet with him alone
anymore. Don’t ruin us.”
Liam pursed his lips, seemingly feeling sorry
for her tears. He reached out to wipe them
away, his tone softening a little.
“You misunderstood. I just came to ask your
sister what you like. Don’t be so nervous. I’ll
be more careful in the future. I won’t make
you sad anymore.”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to go see
wedding dresses today? I’ll take you right
now.”
