Atwood hesitated, wondering if he should tell Stanford or not. He was in a dilemma.
Stanford frowned. “Why didn’t you answer me?”
“You bought the ring from an auction. I never heard whom you’ll give it to,” said Atwood while lowering
his head. He dared not look into Stanford’s eyes, afraid that Stanford would find his sense of guilt.
“Really?” Stanford said expressionlessly, looking down a bit. He always thought that the ring was
supposed to give to someone.
However, he couldn’t recall it at all.
Looking at his hesitant face, Atwood wanted to say something but swallowed his words back.
Sometimes, he believed that it was a good thing for Stanford. It would be way too difficult to win
Amanda’s heart back. Besides, Amanda had a nice man around her now. It would be more difficult to
win her back.
If Stanford truly had forgotten everything, probably he could fall in love with another woman and spent
the rest of his life with her.
Buzz--
Atwood’s cell phone suddenly started vibrating. He pulled out the phone and swiped to answer. It was
some errands in the company, which needed Stanford to deal with. Since they couldn’t reach
Stanford’s phone, they called Atwood.
“I see. We’ll go back as soon as possible,” said Atwood.
Upon hearing the answer on the other end of the line, he hung it up. Then he looked up at Stanford and
said, “Mr. James, there are a lot of businesses in the company. Please let me go back.”
Stanford didn’t agree immediately. He said, “You may leave now. I’ll think about it.”
He always thought that he had forgotten something important. However, no matter how hard he tried,
he couldn’t recall it at all.
Atwood left the room. George was sitting on the bench in the corridor. Hearing the sound, he saw
Atwood walk out of the ward. George asked, “What did my brother tell you?”
Atwood sat next to him. “What do you think about Mr. James’s health issue? You are his family. I don’t
have the right to make the decision.”
George’s mind was still in a mess, and he didn’t make up his mind yet.
“I don’t know,” he said.
Of course, he wanted Stanford to recall everything, but he was afraid of the operational risks. After all,
it would be an operation on Stanford’s head.
Just in case...
George couldn’t afford to bear the risks at all.
“You know my brother isn’t close to our family. Of course, it’s my parents’ fault. He has suffered a lot
before achieving his current status. If I decide to harm him, what should I do?” said George.
It turned out that neither of them dared to make the decision.
“Shall we go to find Ms. Nelson?” asked Atwood.
George turned to look at him, wondering what he meant. “She’s already divorced with my brother.
She’s not his family anymore, is she? Besides, she still hates my brother. Do you think she would make
a decision for my brother’s good?”
Atwood said, “No. I didn’t mean to let her decide. Even if we asked her to, according to her current
attitude towards Mr. James, she wouldn’t agree. I meant, we should let her know Mr. James’s current
status. Probably she would become soft-hearted. Probably she would forgive Mr. James. What do you
think?”
George thought for a moment and said, “Okay. Let’s go to see her together.”
Atwood agreed.
Since they have achieved an agreement, they took an action immediately. After settling Stanford down
in the hospital, they went to Amanda’s residence in City C. Since they couldn’t call her, they waited
outside the residence in the dark, afraid that the Nelson family would see them.
When Amanda came out of Joshua’s company, she returned home directly. Bonnie was the only one at
home, so Amanda wanted to come back to accompany her. However, as soon as she got off the car,
she was stopped by Atwood and George.
“Excuse me, Ms. Nelson. Can we talk to you, please?” asked Atwood.
Amanda looked at him coldly. “Cut the crap and go ahead. I’m quite busy.”
“Can we talk in a private place?”
Amanda didn’t think it was necessary. “Just go ahead and speak. Or, please excuse me.”
“Don’t you care about my brother at all?” asked George.
“Does he have anything to do with me?” Amanda was running out of patience. “If you want to tell me
about his matter, you can leave now. Besides, don’t ever bother me such matters in the future.”
“Last time when you left City B, Mr. James went after you. On the way, he had a car accident. His legs
were injured. Otherwise, he would have followed you to Thailand. Later, he heard you have a new
boyfriend in Thailand. Before completely recovering, he rushed over. That nasty man named Joan used
some despicable means, trying to trap us. Fortunately, we were also tough.
“Mr. James followed you back to City C, aiming to be reconciled with you. This time, he was set up. I
guess you must know who has done it to him, right?”
Atwood always suspected that this incident had something to do with the Nelson family.
“Have you done?” Amanda gazed at Atwood sharply. “If you don’t have any solid evidence, you’d better
not slander others. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so easygoing next time.”
As she spoke, she was heading into the yard. When she reached the door, she paused and said,
“You’d better leave now.”
She didn’t want her family to encounter them.
George followed her to the door and stared at her. “My brother was hit on the head. The car accident
last time caused extravasated blood in his brain, so he has forgotten the past. The doctor said if he
wants to recover, he needs to take the operation. You know such kind of operation is riskier than
normal ones. We don’t know what to do now. For the sake that you use to be a couple, please help
us.”
