Being pushed into a corner
Edmund felt that he was extremely unlucky and was full of bitterness.
He went home this time to visit relatives, but as soon as he got home, his stepmother arranged a blind date for him under the pretext of doing it for his own good.
The other party was a female with an extremely bad temper. After just a short while of meeting, Edmund was tormented to a pulp and finally fled the family home in a panic.
Edmund looked helpless and sighed, complaining, "My father is so clueless! He's actually conspiring with my stepmother to plot against me!"
He has never been able to keep things to himself. As soon as he saw his familiar teammates, he started to talk non-stop:
"I have a cousin who's my stepmother's nephew. His psychic power level is only C-level. In a place like the central area, it's extremely difficult to find a psychic partner.
But he is also very picky. He doesn't even look at females without spiritual power! "
At this point, Edmund clenched his fists in anger. "He doesn't even think about himself. He stays at my house every day and shows off everywhere he goes, using my father's name."
Edmund's father is a cabinet member. Although the position is not critical and the work is leisurely, he is still a well-known figure in the central area of the main star. In addition, Edmund is very outstanding and the family has some prestige.
Just like that, Edmund's cousin actually hooked up with a female with B-level mental power outside.
In a world where males far outnumber females, B-class females are perfectly compatible with A-class males.
In fact, the female didn't like his cousin at all. She was really interested in Edmund.
The other party also said frankly that if Edmund could be her partner, it would not be impossible to mark his cousin as well.
Edmund was furious:
"What does she take this for? It's buy one get one free! I'm not someone who can be manipulated. Why should he involve me if he can't find a partner?"
After hearing this, everyone didn't know what to say for a moment.
Begway expressed deep sympathy for Edmund's situation and said, "How about this? I'll assign you a task. You don't have to go home for the time being. How about that?"
Edmund nodded quickly: "Your Highness, that's exactly what I meant! You must help me!"
Charlie saw that Edmund's condition was not right. Edmund's skin color was darker and his expression did not change much, but his eyes were bloodshot and his mental power was disordered and running around. Even the males receiving treatment in the counseling room were affected.
Carter, dressed in the white uniform of the White Tower Guard, pushed open the door of the counseling room, looked at Edmund and the others in surprise, and asked:
"What's going on with you guys? This mental fluctuation... is someone losing control?"
Edmund collapsed on the sofa weakly, glanced at Carter, and said unhappily, "Who are you? What does this have to do with you?"
Carter: “…”
Carter was extremely depressed. He used to think that these Marine generals were easy to get along with, but since he came to Saint Anrita, they were all hostile to him, as if he had done something unforgivable wrong.
Carter looked at Edmund, who was in a bad state, with a stern face and said seriously, "The Saint is treating someone in there. Your mental power fluctuations are too great and have affected the treatment process."
Edmund wiped the sweat from his forehead and responded loudly, "Okay, I'll go out now! Come back later!"
He knew that the isolation effect of the counseling room was good. As long as he went out, his disordered mental power would not interfere with Anrita.
As he spoke, Edmund struggled to stand up and staggered towards the door.
But before he took two steps, he heard a "bang" and fell heavily to the ground.
Everyone: “…”
After Anrita finished grooming the last male, she heard a noise outside and hurried out.
She looked at the males huddled together in the hall, stood on tiptoe, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? What happened?"
She thought the loud noise just now was thunder.
Then she saw Valua and Eugene carrying the unconscious Edmund over.
Anita: “???”
Anita blinked in surprise and asked, "Edmund? What happened to him?"
She hadn't seen Edmund for a while, so why did he suddenly faint?
Valua and Eugene carried Edmund into the counseling room and placed him on the bed.
Charlie pushed Carter aside, stood next to Anita, and explained, "Edmund said he was drugged and his mental state is very bad. An'an, you should take a look at him."
Anrita looked at the unconscious Edmund, who was wearing casual clothes and was obviously still on vacation.
Edmund has a buzz cut, and his wheat-colored skin makes his facial features look even more rugged.
Anita gently placed her hand on Edmund's forehead and said distressedly, "Who is so bold as to drug Edmund?"
Edmund is enthusiastic and cheerful, but he has a clear distinction between love and hate. If he knew someone had drugged him, he would definitely fight back on the spot.
But looking at his current appearance, there are no signs of fighting on his body.
Charlie, Eugene and others looked at each other and did not explain in detail to Anrita. After all, this was Edmund's family matter.
Anrita carefully checked Edmund's spiritual sea, then smiled and reassured everyone: "Don't worry, he's fine."
Compared with Knox who was also drugged before, Edmund's condition was much better, and there was no sign of riot in his spiritual sea.
Anrita gave Edmund some simple counseling, and soon Edmund woke up.
When he opened his eyes and saw Anrita beside the bed, his ears instantly turned red. He said a little embarrassedly, "Saint Lady, I've been given a very strong mental disruptor! Please help me to relieve it!"
He was also thinking that it would be better if there could be some deep counseling, so that his main consciousness deep in his spiritual sea could have more "interactions" with Anita.
Edmund's amber eyes sparkled as he looked at Anrita expectantly.
Anita found it a little funny. She reached out and patted Edmund's arm gently, saying softly, "It's been relieved. You can get up now."
Edmund: “…”
His smile froze on his face instantly.
Carter, who was squeezed into a corner, felt secretly pleased when he saw this scene.
Anrita was overworked for several days and handled most of the appointment numbers.
Valuya was distressed. He embraced Anita, gently kneaded her hand, and asked with concern: "An An, does your hand still hurt?"
Anrita snuggled up to Valua and said coquettishly, "It hurts. It hurts so much."
Seeing this, Beigewei hurried over and said, "An An, I'll give you a shoulder massage when we get back. My massage skills are pretty good. You'll know when you try it!"
Four males surrounded Anrita, and the group prepared to leave the counseling room.
Carter followed behind, silently tidying up the room, turning off various equipment switches, and preparing to lock the door.
He stood at the door, looking at Edmund who was still sitting on the bed in a daze, and politely reminded him: "Mr. Edmund, aren't you coming out yet? I'm going to lock the door."
Edmund: “…”
Edmund was stunned for a moment, then jumped up in disbelief: "No way, no one cares about me, a patient?"
