Chapter 239
In the hospital, the doctor gave Nathan a sedative to help him fall asleep.
Joseph also had injuries on his face, but he sat by Nathan’s bedside and watched as Nathaan frowned and slept.
Then, he gazed at his injured arm and sighed.
Nathan had acted like a madman just a moment ago. He drove his fiancee, Amelia, away and insisted on leaving the hospital to find Audrey.
Joseph suspected that Nathan might have regained his memory.
He took out his phone and hesitated about whether to call Audrey and inform her.
However, he remembered the man who had just protected Audrey and taken her away. He was worried that she was now with him. What if calling Audrey led to misunderstandings between them?
Now that Nathan had a fiancee, and Audrey had someone protecting her, perhaps it was best if Nathan and Audrey had no further contact.
When Edmond heard that Nathan was hospitalized, his face turned pale.
This was a matter of life and death for the Franklin Group, and Nathan couldn’t afford to let anything happen to him.
“Audrey…”
Nathan suddenly clenched the bedsheet beneath him. He murmured Audrey’s name. His forehead and neck were covered in sweat.
It was as if he were trapped in a bottomless nightmare.
He saw Audrey wearing her middle school uniform while sitting with him on the rooftop and offering him a lollipop.
“Don’t worry, I won’t go to Mythravia University for my PhD. I’ll grow with you just as I promised.”
In the sunset, Audrey’s delicate features remained expressionless. Even as the evening breeze tousled her hair, her clear eyes were warm like the setting sun.
The scene shifted again, showing Audrey struggling to walk after just recovering from a vegetative state. Nathan had pushed her to the ground.
Frustrated, he crushed the lollipop beneath his foot and squatted down while looking at Audrey with tears streaming down her face. “I told you, I don’t want to remember, and I
don’t want to try.
“Why are you so despicable? I love candy, but I only eat the candy given to me by my sweetle.
During military training in high school, several schools went to the mountains together. He had secretly hidden a phone and intended to call Audrey, who had missed training due to an external competition.
But when the instructors checked the dormitories at night, they found the phone. Inside were all the photos he had secretly taken of Audrey, and the dormitory erupted into chaos.
Everyone asked him who the beautiful girl in the photos was, and he proudly declared that she was his wife..
The next morning, he was punished to stand under the national flag. Audrey, who had arrived late due to the competition, attracted the attention of all the boys in the field as soon as she got out of the car.
Nathan had wished that he could find a hole to hide in. He turned his face away in fear that Audrey would recognize him.
Audrey ended up taking his cell phone back from the instructor and handing it to him bright and early when he went to the cafeteria for lunch that day.
He held Audrey in surprise. “How did you get the phone back for me?” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Sindy Gray, who was linking arms with Audrey, squealed with excitement and teased him. You have no idea how amazing Audrey was today! She went straight to the commander and won back your phone by participating in the shooting competition!
“And then, it got even better! Audrey challenged all the instructors to give you the right to bring your cell phone! Ding ding ding… She won! Our genius goddess strikes again!”
Audrey smiled as she allowed Nathan to hold her. He whispered, “I won’t let anyone bully you either.”
The scene shifted again. Hugo brought him and Audrey to the shooting range on a snowy day and told them the story of the military training.
But then, he pushed Audrey into the snow, took off his gloves, and pointed the gun at her.” If it weren’t for my sweetie, I’d shoot you dead!”
Audrey broke down emotionally. “Stop calling her sweetie!”
