Chapter 1928 You Did Nothing Wrong It was late at night when Elias and Sonya realized that the young couple had not returned. Hence, they decided to call in to check on them.
Lucian briefly explained the Lann family's situation and told his parents that they were likely going to stay the night.
Much had happened to the Lann family, and Lucian advised against it when Elias said he wanted to come over.
There was nothing the latter could help with anyway, and it was better if he stayed home and took care of the three kids. Only then would Roxanne and Lucian be at ease.
Although it was approaching twelve o'clock at night, Yennefer was still awake. When Jones noticed that she looked tired, he advised her to head upstairs and rest first.

I'll definitely help out with the wedding. | can't believe Sonya didn't tell me anything even though I'm quite well-versed in that matter!” After saying that, Yennefer excused herself. Apart from a slight cognitive distortion from time to time, she had returned to her original self.
Jones' expression was sad as he remained in the living room.
After a long moment of silence, Jones finally forced a smile and comforted Roxanne and Lucian. “It's all right. If there's truly nothing we can do, we'll just have to treat her like a mentally ill patient and bring her to a professional psychiatric hospital for treatment.” He was already prepared for the worst possibility.
“Mr. Lann, if that's really the case, why don't you give this a shot?” Roxanne suggested as she suddenly thought of an idea.
“Give what a shot?” Lucian stared at his wife in puzzlement.
Roxanne explained the idea she had in mind.
James was a psychologist, after all. Therefore, he could participate in the treatment. However, he carried a burden in his heart and always assumed that his presence would trigger his mother's symptoms and worsen them.
Nonetheless, Yennefer's episode had been triggered by the shooting incident in Alendor this time, and there was nothing that could prove that her symptoms had been caused by James’ presence.
“I can understand that line of thought, but I'm not sure if James can...” Jones' eyes darkened slightly.
Lucian immediately said, “I'll convince him! Mr. Lann, I'm sure you know how James still has some unrest in his heart. He may have suppressed it for the time being, but it is something he has to overcome one way or another.” “Mr. Lann, don't worry too much about it. I'm here for you too. | can prevent Yennefer from having a seizure with my medical skills if something goes amiss. Additionally, we should stop giving her sedatives. There will be long-term side effects if she keeps taking them. It will cause the body's endocrine secretion to go out of control and harm her mental state,” Roxanne reassured.
In the end, Jones nodded in agreement.
The couple got into the car and informed James of the situation.

James hesitated. He found it extremely difficult to make a decision until he saw Jones come over with a smile on his face. The other man patted James on the shoulder.
“James, | believe in you. We should give it a try! Even if it fails, we can shoulder it together as a family. Over the years, | understood your feelings, and that was the reason why | did not try to interfere. In the end, | am greatly indebted to you. You did nothing wrong back then.” Jones' words stunned James, causing a faint light to ignite in the latter's eyes.
Over the years, James had long wished for his mother to recover from her illness.
He constantly blamed himself for being unable to use a different method to deal with his aunt's nefarious plan. If only he had dealt with it in another way, his aunt would not have fallen into the well and died.
James' heart had been constantly tormented by that incident.
“Dad, you're right! We'll shoulder it as a family!” Finally, James made his decision.
