Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 119: The Eternally Single Family



To do that, you need to go to a therapist who will help you suppress the more dangerous parts of your subconscious."

Jeanne paused for a few seconds after saying this before she sighed and spoke while stretching.

"Look, I'm really busy with work, but I wouldn't mind helping you out since my brother was the one who asked for my help. I work on sick patients and injured superhumans for most of the day, so I won't have time to help you then, but I have a free break for two hours every day when I get coffee. If you're going to get any help, then you can join me for coffee for an hour every day.

That way, we can have our session and I can still get my break. Is that good?"

Arit immediately jumped at the chance once Jeanne suggested it. She was excited that Jeanne was willing to help and she really wanted to get some help because she was not completely comfortable with some of the changes that she was seeing happening to her body, but Arit was also really excited that she would get to talk with a real doctor.

Arit would not pass up the opportunity to get to talk to a real doctor who was already in the position that she wanted to be in. Jeanne saw the enthusiasm from Arit and she smiled a bit before looking at Mark to see if he also agreed. In some way, Jeanne could tell that Mark's decisions would determine what they did.

Mark was leaning back on the couch and he hummed as he thought about Jeanne's idea. It would be good to help Arit and Mark couldn't see any issues with the deal. He had more than enough money to pay for the sessions, so he knew that that wouldn't be a problem either. He spoke up after a moment.

"How long do you think it will take for her to learn how to suppress the voice? Will it take too long?"

Jeanne shrugged.

"Not really. At most, it should take a month. She already has some control over the voice so I only need to teach her how to drown it out and leave it at the back of her mind. Once she can do that, then she should be able to live a normal life. Or at least, a somewhat normal life. There really is not anything normal about being a superhuman."

Mark nodded in agreement before he sighed and finally agreed.

"Alright, I think that plan works perfectly. Thank you for the help, Jeanne."

Jeanne stood up and spoke as Pat started to come out from inside his room with a briefcase in his hand and a backpack. He struggled to bring the bag out of the room until Talia walked up to him and grabbed it with one hand before pulling the briefcase out of the room easily. Jeanne scoffed gently.

"Yeah, you're welcome. I didn't think that I would get another chance to see you after we met at the NSA. I suppose I should apologize for what happened back there. I was rude to you, but you were only trying to protect her, weren't you? You're a good man."

Mark smiled.

"It's no problem. I didn't know who you were back then either, so we both made mistakes. I think you and I can really get along."

Jeanne felt something pull at her heart once she heard Mark's accepting tone. She stared down at Mark with critical eyes for a moment as she tried to see if he meant anything more by what he said, but she sighed in her heart as she watched Mark look away from her and turn towards Arit once Arit spoke to him.

She could feel some strings of jealousy pulling at her heart and she tried her best to stomp it out immediately! She shouldn't be jealous of some little kids that found love! She is a grown woman and it is unbecoming to be jealous of children!

'Ah, forget all of this! I want a boyfriend too!'

Jeanne closed her eyes and groaned as she finally shouted in her heart. She simply started to move towards Pat once she saw that he was already opening the door to leave.

"Well, we're on our way then –"

"Wait, what do you mean you're going? Going where?"

Arit stood up in surprise as she heard Pat speak up from the door. She saw the bags at Patrick's feet and she could immediately tell that he was leaving the hotel. Why didn't he tell them so that they could all leave together?

Patrick patted Talia's head in thanks once she was done helping him move his bag to the door and she just flicked his hand away with a scowl on her face!

"Ouch!"

Pat held his hand in pain and glared at the little girl as she plumped herself down on the couch. She didn't even use any force, but that hurt! Superhumans and their irrational strength! Talia completely ignored him and went back to the couch to continue watching her movie, and Pat just sighed as he turned back to his bags.

He had no luck with the opposite gender, regardless of their age. Older women all thought that he was too lazy, the girls his age thought that he was too smart, and they were always overwhelmed by him when he spoke to them, and little girls just ignored him.

And worst of all was the fact that Pat found it difficult to tolerate anyone of the opposite gender because the ones he had met were either too stupid to handle a deep conversation with him or they wanted some bad boy that they could control. Pat would rather stay alone for the rest of his life than deal with those sorts of girls!

Patrick and Jeanne were almost identical in terms of their love life. Or at least they were identical in their absolute lack of a love life.

Even though Jeanne was already in her late twenties she still hadn't had a single steady boyfriend and she was already starting to think that she would become an eternal spinster at this age! Meanwhile, Patrick was always so busy with school, Superhuman work, or just generally being indoors that he never got a chance to meet any girl he could have a relationship with.

If you were very superstitious, then you would think that this was some sort of curse placed on their family! The eternally single family!
