At the hospital in America, Abbie woke up at 7:30 p. m. When she opened her eyes, Leonard was already in the ward.
He was arranging some flowers beside the bed, and when he saw Abbie open her eyes, he immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at Abbie with soft eyes. “How do you feel? Does your head still hurt?”
Abbie didn’t say anything but just shook her head and pretended to look around blankly.
She and Leonard were the only ones in the ward, and the servants and Leonard’s assistant were nowhere to be seen. Through the ward’s glass door, Abbie could see a tall and sturdy bodyguard standing guard by the door.
Leonard was very wary of her as he had arranged for guards to watch over her even when she was unconscious. It was obvious that she was very important in Leonard’s plan.
As she thought about this, Abbie looked away and struggled to sit up. Leonard immediately reached out to help her up and put a cushion behind her. His voice was very soft and gentle. “Are you hungry?”
Listening to his voice that resembled William’s, Abbie had goosebumps again.
A man who looked like her best friend’s husband was speaking to her in a gentle voice on purpose, which made her want to throw up.
She didn’t say anything and continued to nod. Leonard opened the thermos bottle next to him and said, “I’ve got someone to prepare some porridge for you. You haven’t eaten for days and your stomach is very weak. Fill yourself up with some porridge now, and I’ll take you to a big meal later.”
Abbie took the porridge that Leonard had prepared for her silently and began to eat slowly.
She didn’t like the taste of porridge, so she put it down after eating half of it. Leonard took a tissue to wipe the corners of her mouth, but Abbie turned her head to stop him.
She asked him the same way she did when she first woke up and saw Leonard, “Who am I? Why am I here?”
“You’re Abbie Clark, the eldest daughter of the Clark family,” Then, Leonard told Abbie about her being pushed into the sea, just as he had told her when she woke up for the first time.
Abbie reached out to rub her forehead with a blank expression. “I can’t remember anything! Why can’t I remember anything?”
“The doctor said that your brain was seriously hurt and it damaged your memory. Don’t panic. Let your body recover in the meantime. Maybe your memory will come back slowly.”
Leonard continued to comfort her in a gentle voice as Abbie rubbed her temples for a while. Suddenly, she stopped and looked at Leonard. “Who are you?”
“Me? I’m your friend.”
“Friend?” That was not what Leonard had said when she first woke up. Abbie looked at him blankly. “You’re my friend? Then you must know my family, right? Where is my family? Where are they? Why didn’t they come to see me?”
“They don’t know that you are alive. After your accident, your family thought that you were dead. I saved you by accident. You were seriously injured and were in a coma back then. The doctor said that it was unlikely for you to wake up. I didn’t dare tell your family members because I was afraid that they would suffer again. Fortunately, God is with you. You have been in a coma for several months and finally woke up!”
“Is that so? Can you help me inform my family, then? I want to see them.” Abbie asked.
This was different from her reaction when she woke up the last time. The last time, after hearing that someone had pushed her to her death, Abbie did not choose to look for her family, and instead, she wanted to take revenge. Leonard did not reject nor agree to her request. “You should rest first. When your body recovers, I will take you to see your family.”
“Why aren’t you letting my family come see me?” Abbie asked.
“It’s not that I don’t want your family to visit you, it’s that your family is not in this country. You just woke up, so I have to find a way to inform them.”
“Do you have my family’s contact information? Can you inform them immediately, please?”
“I don’t have their contact information.”
“But didn’t you say that you are my friend? If you are my friend, how could you not have my family’s contact? Are you sure you’re my friend? But you saved me, didn’t you?”
Abbie continued to ask innocently. Her reaction this time was completely different from before, and Leonard did not expect that. Of course, he would not let Abbie see her family now, so he immediately said, “Abbie, there is something else. I think you should know by now that you are pregnant! Your family will not want to see you pregnant with your enemy’s child.”
Leonard was unwilling to let her see his family, and Abbie understood that there was a bottom line to her questioning. Therefore, she no longer asked to see her family, and instead, she asked Leonard with a puzzled face, “Why am I pregnant with my enemy’s child? What the hell is going on?”
Like last time, Leonard began to explain to Abbie about the conflict between her, Michael, and Azalea.
Abbie was certain that Leonard would not let her see her family so easily, so after hearing Leonard’s words, she put on an angry expression. “How ridiculous! How can I be that stupid? How can I be this useless and be fooled by others?”
“That’s because you’re too kind. You’re not on your guard against them, while they’re deliberately scheming against you. That’s why you fell into their trap. Now that you know their true colors, you won’t be fooled anymore!”
“I’m going to get even with that Michael and that disgusting woman. I won’t let them off easily!”
Leonard secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Abbie no longer mentioned wanting to see her family.
“Have a rest first. Your can plot your revenge slowly. I’ll help you!”
“Thank you! Why are you so good to me?” Su asked.
“That’s because… because I like you? I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. I’ve always wanted to ask you out, but you couldn’t see me. You were in love with Michael, that heartless man,” Leonard replied.
His current act this time was that of someone who liked her. He was indeed planning something big by making her lose her memories.
She didn’t have anything on her that Leonard wanted, so his target was definitely Richard of the Clark family. Abbie wanted to see what Leonard’s final goal was.
She followed Leonard’s lead and sighed. “My taste is really bad. You’re so good-looking. So much better than that disgusting sc*mbag Michael! Why didn’t I see how good you were?”
“Don’t blame yourself! The most important thing now is to take good care of yourself so that you can recover and see your family. Only then can you take revenge!”
“You’re right. I need to take good care of my body. I must! I can only take revenge if I am healthy!”
After saying this, Abbie revealed a tired expression. “When will my body recover? Right now, I feel extremely tired and powerless.”
“Lie down and rest if you’re tired. Don’t think too much.” Leonard helped Abbie to lie down. Not long after laying down, Abbie fell asleep.
Leonard stayed in the ward for a while before he got up and left. His assistant was already waiting for him outside.
Seeing Leonard come out, he immediately asked, “Mr. Floyd, how did it go?”
“She was different from the last time she woke up. Fortunately, I finally made her believe me.”
“Great, as long as she trusts you, things will be easy in the future.”
Leonard suddenly thought of something after he finished speaking. “Wait, I suddenly remembered something. She didn’t mention that she wanted an abortion after hearing that Michael had betrayed her! That’s not right! No, we can’t be careless about this. We have to stay alert!”
