Chapter 63 Sofia is very similar to Alex

In the evening, his father finally brings Sofia back. Alex goes out and sees that Sofia is still the same as before, who gets super excited to see him at the entrance.

"Alex, you are here too!!!"

Alex frowns a bit and looks at her helpless. Frankly speaking, this is his parents 'home, why does she become so shocked to see him back at home? And what does it mean that she treats this place as her own home?

He turns his head and looks at his father in confusion. However, his father just glances at him, then turns to his mother and says,

"Sofia will live here for a period of time in the future. As for when to move out, it is not certain for the time being."

After speaking, he turns his head and looks at Alex and explains, "This is indeed necessary."

Alex also knows that this kind of mental illness must be very difficult to treat, otherwise the original owner would have been cured long ago. Doing so may be convenient for treatment at any time. After all, Alex certainly does not understand the matter of curing diseases and saving lives as well as his father.

Just as he is about to nod in agreement, Alex discovers that his mother's face suddenly becomes terrible, then he realizes that something is wrong. His family is so rich, but they doesn't even have a nanny, which obviously shows how much her mother doesn't like to be disturbed.

It would be fine if this person is Alex's girlfriend, but Alex already told her yesterday that this woman is just a patient, which is equivalent to a stranger breaking into her home and living with her for a long period. No one would be happy about this certainly.

Seeing that the atmosphere gets a little tense, Alex walks up to his mother and pulls her, indicating that he has something to say to her. Then the two return to Alex's room, and his mother stops pretending and complains directly,

"What do you think your father's words? What's the matter with him bringing a woman to live in? What will outsiders think us?. Only few people knows the fact that Sofia is here to see a doctor, but Most who don't know the truth will probably think that he has a concubine."

Alex pats his mother's back to calm her down, and comforts her,

"Mom, how can you think so of my dad? Didn't you just praise him as a perfect man and perfect husband? What now? Not anymore?"

The mother still complains, "I was blind and I regret it now, what I said just now doesn't count anymore."

Alex couldn't help laughing when he sees his mother still like a little girl,

"You are not blind, mom, your eyes are so bright. I brought Sofia back just because she has a serious mental illness. To be honest, ordinary people can't cure it and it must be my dad's level, but you know my dad's expenses, how can she afford it? I can only bring her here without asking for permission."

The mother looks at Alex for a long time without saying anything, until Alex feels a little uncomfortable with her look, she speaks,

"Son, tell me the truth please, are you interested in that girl?"

Seeing his mother's suspicious eyes, Alex feels helpless. He did this in order to learn the ways secretly and treat and cure the original owner. As for pursuing the girl, he would have to wait until his own troubles are completely gone and then he would have this thought.

However, the current situation obviously does not allow him to say so. If Alex denies it, his mother would definitely not let Sofia live in. How could he treat the disease then?

Looking at his mother's eyes, he hesitates for a while, grits his teeth and nods,

"I indeed have a little affection for her, but I'm not sure yet."

Alex didn't give his mother a precise answer, in order to pave the way for Sofia to leave after she gets cured.

His mother frowns, and Alex gets even more speechless when he sees this scene. What does it mean? Even after he said so, it still doesn't work? What should he do then?

"Son, originally, whoever you like and whoever you pursue is your own freedom. I have no right to interfere, and I don't intend to interfere, but she is a patient after all. Have you already carefully thought about it?"

Hearing his mother's words, Alex breathes a sigh of relief. It turns out that she is more worried about this problem, but actually there is no need for that, since he has never thought about being with Sofia at all.

But it's not bad this way. When Sofia is cured, he will tell his mother that she is not cured and they will not be together anymore. Then it will be more natural to let Sofia leave.

So Alex holds his mother's hand,

"Mom, don't worry. I know that if her disease is really incurable, I can't have a result with her. Even if I don't consider myself, I have to consider you and my father."

"Okay, fine, let her live in."

Hearing that his mother finally agrees, Alex gets a little happy, and then takes his mother out to arrange Sofia's residence.

…

The two come to the room, and Alex says,

"You live here for the time being. The things are prepared in the cabinet and they are all new. You can use them directly or just go out and buy it by yourself if you need something else."

Sofia takes a quick look at the room and asks, "You don't live here?"

Alex nods, "I don't live here, but I will come back often."

Sofia nods to show that she understands, and then begins to decorate the room.

Alex looks at her movements and asks curiously,

"Don't you feel embarrassed or ashamed at all?"

Sofia turns around and asks in confusion,

"Why should I be embarrassed? It's you asked me to come here, right?"

Alex nod slowly, 

"By the way, what did you do with my dad today? Did my dad say anything to you?"

Sofia answers while tidying up the room,

"Today, I didn't do anything. He just brought me to walk around and asked about my experience. That's all and I didn't say anything else."

Alex didn't exactly know the treatment methods of psychologists, but they probably wouldn't expressed that the patients are sick as soon as they met. Anyway, he plans to ask his father, and he also plans to talk to him.

"Then you go ahead, I'll go first."

When Alex finds his father, his father looks at him and knows that Alex has something to say. His father walks out like before, and Alex follows behind.

The two come outside, and Alex asks directly,

"How is it? Is there a possibility of cure?"

His father frowns and looks at him, "I don't have the ability to judge whether someone can be cured or not in only one day."

Alex gets embarrassed by being choked. He knows that he is anxious, but he couldn't help controlling himself. He was not so anxious before, but because of the nightmare last night, he couldn't help being anxious. He really didn't know what the nightmare meant.

Does the original owner get stronger? Or does he get stronger?

If it is himself, it would be fine, but if it is the original owner, he would be miserable.

"So how much do you know?" Alex asks.

His father doesn't speak, as if he is thinking about something, and Alex waits quietly on the side. After a while, his father responses in a low voice,

"Most antisocial personalities are caused by the acquired environment, such as a miserable childhood. They will feel happy from the process of violence, but she is different. She is very similar to you."

At this point, his father pauses and looks at him. Alex doesn't say anything and he indeed doesn't know what to say at this time.

His father continues,

"You should know that there is always a debate in the philosophical community about whether human nature is good or evil, which has always existed till now. Both sides have arguments to prove their own views, and they are even very reasonable. What do you think of this issue?"

Alex gets a little confused. Why does his father ask himself this? He has never thought about this question. He thinks about it for a while and could only speak according to his own thoughts.

"I think it doesn't matter whether human nature is good or evil and It still depends on the acquired environment. If the acquired environment is terrible, even if human nature is good, it will probably change, and vice versa."

The father sneers and asks,

"Really? What about you? Why haven't you been changed?"
