Amanda paused a bit, frowning slightly. She looked back at George and asked, “What do you mean?”
“My brother’s head was injured, so he has forgotten everything in the past. He even can’t recognize
me. He’ll only recover after he will take an operation. Please help us make a decision. Or, could you go
to visit him, please?” George said in a pleading tone.
Amanda was only surprised for a second, and then she returned to normal. “That’s a good thing. He
won’t come to pester me again. And you as well, don’t ever come to bother me in the future.”
After finishing her words, she entered the house and closed the door, having no intention to agree with
them at all.
George was disappointed. “Is her heart as cold as a stone? My brother has become like that, but she
doesn’t care about him at all.”
Atwood heaved a sigh. “It’s alright. We’ve tried our best. Let’s go.”
He pulled the door of the car open and sat in, George followed him. “What should we do next?” he
asked.
Atwood thought for a moment. “Why don’t we go back to City B first? That’s our territory. We can find a
hospital to check up on Mr. James. Then we’ll know what to do next.”
“What if he must have the operation?” asked George.
Atwood looked at him. “Have you ever thought it’s actually better for Mr. James to forget his past?”
George became excited instantly. “What are you talking about? Do you want to take this chance to
steal his company?”
“Do you think everyone is like your mother?” Atwood didn’t want to mention those things, but he was
quite upset. Who did George think he was to judge him that way?
George was also pissed. He knew his mother was quite greedy and didn’t treat Stanford well, but she
was his mother. He could think of her that way, but when others criticized her in his presence, George
was quite unhappy.
Atwood didn’t want to argue with him at all. He said in a more friendly tone, “You’ve seen Amanda
Nelson’s attitude now. After she got to Mr. James’s current status, her heart wasn’t softened at all. It’s
almost impossible for her to be reconciled with Mr. James.”
“What’s your point?” asked George.
“If Mr. James’s memory is recovered, he’ll be quite regretful and upset about his past. He will still insist
on winning back Amanda Nelson’s heart although he knows it’s impossible. He should forget
everything than suffering while remembering his past,” said Atwood.
George frowned. “What do you mean exactly? You don’t want to cure him, do you?”
“The treatment is risky. If he doesn’t take the operation, he won’t need to take the risk of the operation,
and nor will he need to feel upset for Amanda. If in the future, he falls in love with another woman, she
can take care of him. Isn’t it good?”
George still couldn’t agree with him. He just thought that the decision shouldn’t be made by them but by
Stanford himself.
“I need to think about it.”
George started the engine and drove away.
After Stanford stayed in the hospital for two days, Atwood started talking about the company
businesses to him, letting him get familiar with everything as soon as possible.
On the third day after the incident, they went back to City B.
When Atwood took Stanford to a hospital in City B for a group consultation, George went back to the
James’s and told his parents about Stanford’s status. He hoped that they could give him some
suggestions so that he could make a correct decision.
However, upon hearing the news, Alyssa became so excited. “What did you say? Stanford has lost his
memory?”
George nodded. “Yes. In City C, his head was hit and injured. Although his life isn’t in danger, he has
forgotten everything. The doctor said it’s risky for him to do the operation, but his memory can’t recover
if he doesn’t do it.”
“He shouldn’t do any operation. If it fails, his life is in danger.” Inwardly, Alyssa was overjoyed with such
good news. She had thought that she wouldn’t have any chance.
Now, the chance came to her automatically.
“Do you truly think so?” George looked at his mother and asked, “In fact, you are quite nice to my
brother, aren’t you? You care about him.”
Alyssa looked awkward with a wry smile.
She didn’t agree with taking the operation because since Stanford had lost his memory, she would
have the chance to make him let George go to his company. If he took the operation, it would be fine if
he died on the operation table. If he recovered, Alyssa didn’t think that her son would have a chance to
get into the company anymore.
“Dad, what do you think?” George looked at Enoch.
Enoch was afraid of Stanford’s indifference, so he believed that it would be much better for Stanford to
forget. “I agree with your mother.”
George slightly frowned. “But, if he couldn’t remember his past, would his life still be complete?”
“If he doesn’t need those memories, it doesn’t matter if he can remember or not.” Enoch operated his
wheelchair and went back into his bedroom.
George wanted Stanford to recover. Even if there were bad memories, at least he had experienced
them. It was part of his life.
“Mom, are you truly afraid the operation has risks so it’s better for him not to have the operation?”
George looked at his mother. “Stanford has lost his mother when he was quite young. Can you treat
him better? Don’t try to set him up again. He treats me quite nicely.”
Alyssa was so disappointed in his son. She was proud that she could win against Enoch’s ex-wife and
become his wife from a mistress. She wondered why her son was truly cowardly.
“George, you have different mothers. Why do you treat him so well?”
“But we are siblings from the same father,” said George, “We have the same blood in our bodies. He’s
my older brother. You can’t deny it, can you?”
Alyssa couldn’t do anything to her son. She realized that it would be impossible for asking George to
steal Stanford’s wealth aboveboard, so she wanted to use other ways. Pulling George’s hand, she said
seriously, “George, you are right. I’ve been having a reflection nowadays. In the past, I was wrong. It
was my bad. In the future, I’ll correct my mistake. But this time, I said that for his own good. You’ve
seen your father’s attitude. The operation is risky. It’s better for Stanford not to do it. As for his
company, you should help him more. He’s your older brother.”
