Hardy grabbed his coat and left the company. When he returned home, Paisley was watching TV in her pajamas on the sofa casually.
The tea table in front of her was filled with snacks and drinks as she stared at the TV and ate while turning a blind eye to his return.
He stood by the door and stared at her for a long time. Then, he walked to her side and turned off the TV after picking up the remote control without even saying a word.
She looked at him unhappily, “Bro, what the hell? Gimme that! The drama is at its climax point.”
“Are you going to keep on living like this?”
“Any problem?” She retorted, “When I wanted to get closer to William in the past, you repeatedly said that I was shameless. Now, I’m finally restrained and not doing anything shameful. Isn’t this what you want the most?”
After that, she grabbed the remote control from his hand and turned on the TV. He stared at her angrily with shallow breaths and sneered, “William is not dead!”
She continued to stare at the TV as if she didn’t hear him. He raised his voice and said, “Did you hear me? I said, William is not dead!”
His voice was very loud, making her shiver. She turned to look at him, “Are you joking? Bro, this ain’t funny!”
“This isn’t a joke. Look at this!” He took out his phone to show her the picture of William and Natasya, “Do you see this? He is still alive and well and he’s with Natasya now!”
“For real?” She snatched his phone away and stared intently at the picture on the phone for a while, then jumped up.
He was shocked by her reaction, “What’s wrong with you?”
“I’m gonna get myself washed up.”
“Wait a minute! Are you going to see William? Stop dreaming. He is now overseas with Natasya. No matter how well you dress up, you won’t be able to see him!”
“Who says that I’m taking a shower and changing my clothes just to see him? I’m going to see Talitha!” She laughed coldly, “That b*tch Natasya wants to trick me and steal my man. I swear I’m so gonna get the worst of her! I have to see Talitha and ask her where she is now!”
“What’s the point of you going to Talitha? Natasya is her biological sister. You’re dreaming if you think that she will give you any leads.”
“You don’t know about this, Talitha is extremely jealous of Natasya’s beauty and intelligence. Devon and Raelyn have always liked Natasya more than her. Even the Saunders family too, so she has been holding a grudge in her heart. She will definitely help me and tell me the truth.”
He frowned and did not speak. Paisley then added, “Also, she likes you. If I can’t get the truth out of her, you can seduce her for she is deeply in love with you. As long as you use some tricks, she will be compliant.”
He immediately relaxed upon hearing that, “Call Talitha and ask her out for dinner then.”
In the Floyd family’s mansion in New York, William didn’t sleep until early in the morning because he was up all night chatting with Valeria. Therefore, he woke up an hour later than usual. In the dining room, Angel and Natasya were worried because of his absence.
“Did something happen to him?” Angel spoke first.
“What are you talking about this early in the morning?” Deborah glared at her.
“But he gets up so early every day. Why is he still not here? I’m really worried. Should I go and have a look?”
“I’ll go!” Natasya immediately said.
Natasya and Angel both wanted to go, but Deborah didn’t let them, “Both of you stay here. I’ll go and take a look.”
She got up and went upstairs. She knocked on the door a few times and said, “William, time to wake up!”
He rubbed his eyes and opened the door, “Grandma, good morning!”
“Are you not feeling well? I see that you don’t look so well,” She asked with concern.
“I’m fine. Maybe I didn’t sleep well,” He put his hand on his head with an apologetic look on his face.
“Why? Is the bed uncomfortable?” She asked again with concern.
“No, grandma, I had a nightmare,” He pulled her in and closed the door, “Natasya was in my dream last night. She was so scary, like a witch in a horror movie. It scared me so much that I couldn’t fall asleep after waking up, so I didn’t sleep until dawn.”
She was speechless at this and said, “Child, you were scared to this extent because of a dream? Hm, so cowardly?”
“No, it’s just… I was just thinking since I’ve lost my memory and can’t remember anything now, no one knows if Natasya is my girlfriend or not, right? What if she is the one who hurt me instead?”
His grandmother was stunned for a moment and said, “That’s not possible, is it? If she was the one who hurt you, she would definitely do something to you when you were in a coma. There are no chances to do anything now, so I don’t think she is the one.”
“I hope so but I just feel uneasy. Grandma, why don’t I return home earlier to see what’s going on?”
“Er… William, your grandfather and I are most worried that your closest relatives will kill you. You don’t remember anything, so you don’t know who is good and who is bad. If they scheme against you again, it will be impossible to prevent it.”
“But I can’t stay here and do nothing all the time, can I? Grandma, I think it’s better to go back. Can you discuss it with Grandpa? Otherwise, I’ll be having constant nightmares, and I’m gonna die ‘cus of it!”
“Okay, I’ll talk to him ’bout it,” She looked at his dark circles and sighed, “Go have your breakfast, then you go back to sleep!”
After breakfast, William yawned and returned to his room to take a nap. Angel pouted unhappily, “William, why are you going to sleep again? Didn’t we agree to go on a walk today?”
Madam Floyd immediately rejected the idea, “Can’t you see the dark circles under his eyes? He’s in poor health and didn’t rest well. How can he accompany you now? Let him rest before anything else.”
“I’ll go with you next time!” His voice was soft, “Why don’t you and Miss Anderson hang out today instead?”
“Forget it. You go and rest first. We’ll hang out tomorrow,” Angel didn’t want to hang out with Natasya no matter what, so she immediately rejected his suggestion coldly.
He yawned and went upstairs. Natasya also went up while Deborah went to the study room.
Fandrey was drawing. When he saw his wife coming in, he put down his pen. “What’s the matter?”
“It’s about William. He said he had a nightmare that Natasya was not a good person. He was so scared that he didn’t sleep well all night and wanted to go back home.”
“Is that so?” He touched his chin, “Did he really say that? Interesting!”
