Nathan was slow to return.
Kennedy had a suspicion, but he wasn’t sure. He wanted to call Nathan to ask him about the situation, but he was worried that he would be found out. After five more minutes of thinking and waiting, Nathan still had not returned.
So Kennedy went out alone with the car keys.
It was already the sixth day.
It had been six days since he had seen his wife.
He missed her very much, but reality was still cruel. He had tried many times in the last few days, no matter how long he had been in the water, with his spirit suffering greatly, and still it had been no use.
The memory had been stimulated a little when he saw his old one, and then it would have stagnated, with no tendency to recover at all.
If there had been a little progress, even if only a little, Kennedy would not have had to be in such a hurry.
When he arrived on the scene, Jason saw him and the expression changed slightly.
-Are you continuing today as well?
he asked cautiously. Kennedy had been coming in every day, looking worse and worse, that Jason suspected something was wrong with him.
But he was also one of those people who looked, apart from his almost pale face, like a normal person.
And every time she said she was going to start, the intense thirst for her memory to return to her eyes was so strong that Jason couldn’t even say no.
-No.
Today, however, Jason finally heard something different from Kennedy, who usually had a cold face and said one word with indifference: continuous.
So Jason had no choice but to continue to help him.
When he finally told him no, Jason thought he had figured it out and was very excited, -Kennedy, you finally figured it out. I told you before that you should stop trying for a few days so that your physical and mental health and risk would be minimized. I’ve been afraid every day, and thank goodness you’ve come to your senses, so you….
Kennedy frowned and an expression of impatience appeared on his face, clearly he had no more patience to wait for me to say more.
He grimaced and cut Jason off immediately.
-Do you have time now?
-Huh? -Jason’s words were interrupted and he stopped to look at him in confusion.
Kennedy narrowed his eyes, -I can’t wait to slowly recover like this, it’ll be a waste of time if I put it off any longer.
-So what?
Looking at Kennedy in front of him, Jason suddenly had a very unsettling feeling.
Right now he had thought Kennedy had noticed, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong. If Kennedy wasn’t going to continue today, then he might as well not have come to see him and rest at home.
However, he had come to him anyway, and knowing him as he did, Jason was sure that his visit couldn’t be that simple.
Jason swallowed nervously at the thought of some horrible thought coming to him.
-Can’t he be thinking…?
Kennedy observed his look of horror and smiled, -You’re pretty smart, not bad for a good friend of mine from back in the day.
Jason was so surprised that he said nothing.
It was the first time in a week that Jason had seen a smile on Kennedy’s face. Although it was faint, it was a smile. But Jason had not expected to see it in this context.
Now it didn’t seem to him that the smile was friendly at all; it felt like he was in an ice cave, so cold.
-Kennedy, listen to me. About healing memories, you can’t be so anxious. Or else it would be counterproductive.
Kennedy’s eyes looked at him coldly.
-That’s what you said six days ago.
Jason was struck dumb. And only after a long moment did Jason say in a serious tone, “You’re right, I did say that at the time. But this time you don’t think so, and now I’m telling you the truth, without exaggeration. Just one question, do you want a nervous breakdown?
With that said, Jason coaxed him again, not wanting to give him a chance to catch his breath.
-Look, you know how bad you’ve been lately. If you didn’t, you wouldn’t have to hide in the hotel every day and be afraid to see your family again. Besides, isn’t the reason you’re doing this is for your family? But if something happens this time, how are you going to face your family in the future? What do you want people to think?
Kennedy pursed his lips and said nothing.
Jason wasn’t sure he was listening to his words, and he had a serious look on his face.
-I didn’t say anything to scare you this time, and if you really want to do it, I won’t help you.
At these words, Kennedy finally raised his head and said.
-Really?
Jason nodded vigorously.
-Yes, which is why I advise you to go back and rest first. Don’t be in a hurry in this matter.
Kennedy smiled slightly, -Okay, I’ll do it myself.
With that, Kennedy turned around at Jason’s surprised expression and quietly walked away with the car keys.
He was calm, but Jason, who had heard him, was not. Kennedy had come alone today, so Jason had given him his word that he would not help him.
He thought Kennedy wouldn’t risk it on his own.
But he said he was really going to go on his own.
And where was he going now?
Jason immediately picked up his steps to catch up with him and asked sharply after him, -What did you just say? Are you going to do it on your own? Where are you going to go? I tell you Kennedy, don’t do anything foolish, don’t you want to live on earth? Just a lost memory, why, why are you so stubborn?
Jason felt he was about to go crazy over this good friend.
He knew Kennedy was a hard man, but he never thought he was so hard on himself.
However, no matter what he said, Kennedy again ignored him and quickly walked out the door and then to the elevator, with Jason following him because he was worried about him.
Later, as Kennedy was about to leave, Jason also opened the car door and got in.
Kennedy frowned, -You’re not helping me?
Jason snorted indifferently, -I didn’t want to help you, but why the hell did you come to me? And you said to do it yourself. Am I the kind of person who has no heart?
“Without help, in case something happens to you on your own, it would be very bad then. If there is someone to help you, it won’t be so terrible if something happens.”
Thinking about this, Jason said fiercely, -I really owe it to you in my last life. After you get your memory back, hurry up and come back, don’t stay here anymore. I don’t want to accompany you every day.
Later, when Kennedy was driving, Jason opened the WhatsApp and sent their location to Nathan.
