After the door was completely closed, Jason started complaining.
“How come I didn’t realize Robert’s so stubborn before? The feeling of not turning back once he’s
determined makes me feel like hitting him!”
Jasper laughed next to him.
“That’s because he used to decide that the persons he wanted to protect and respect were us, back
then of course you wouldn’t think that there was something wrong with his character. However, his eyes
are full of Ms. Moon now. We are all considered bad guys to him. That’s why you get angry and feel like
punching him.”
“That’s really troublesome.”
Jason sighed. Ivan who was at the side also started to join their conversation, “So, what shall we do
now? Robert doesn’t trust us obviously and he wants to hold a wedding with Sierra soon. If he holds
the wedding, then bad things will happen to my cousin and Georgia, right?”
Ivan was worried when he thought about it. He thought that if Elsie knew what they had talked about
today, she would definitely rush to see Robert with a knife and then died with him.
“Luckily he came back alive. He is still healthy and alive. As for other things, let’s take one step at a
time and see what shall we do after the step.”
Jasper spoke to the two men with a delighted smile on his face.
“There’s no need to feel so down. He had disappeared for one year and wasn’t our greatest wish is that
he’s still alive? Now, he is alive, he’s requickened and looks so healthy, this can be considered as a
good thing... As for Sierra, let’s observe her for a while first. If there’s really something wrong with the
woman, she will reveal her true colour. However, why Robert said that the two of them have a son? Is
Robert being tricked?”
“I don’t think so. He’s so defensive now, even though a paternity test might have been done, I think he
will do it again in few more places. I think Sierra still doesn’t have the ability to lie to Robert. Don’t you
notice that he’s suspicious of everyone now? But this is a problem, is it the destiny that decides
Georgia and my cousin will not be a couple forever?”
Ivan sighed. All of them were speechless for a moment.
After Robert returned to the hall, Miranda and Sierra had already finished chatting.
Sierra cheerfully walked towards Robert.
“Have you finished talking already? I feel a bit tired and want to go back and rest.”
Robert asked with concern.
“Are you having a headache? I’ll take you home now.”
Sierra smiled gently. Robert held Sierra’s hand directly and left the dinner party.
Miranda and Elsie rejoined the men. Miranda then briefly told them what had happened when she saw
Sierra.
“I tried to ask her what had happened to Robert in that one year and where was he staying? But she
didn’t reveal a single word. It seems that this woman is not a simple person. She can speak without
revealing a single word about what had happened to her and Robert in that year. However, she’s gentle
and her tone’s also gentle. It’s not clear whether this woman has any bad intentions. I don’t feel
disgusting talking to her anyway. She’s very considerate about my emotions.”
Elsie mocked Miranda straight away, “I think you can use another word to describe the woman, which
is scheming.”
Miranda smiled helplessly. She only met Elsie a few times. However, because of Georgia, Miranda met
her few times. Both of them could be considered nodding acquaintances.
“You’re right. I don’t think the woman is simple.”
Miranda looked at the three men and came to her conclusion about Sierra.
“What about you guys? Since you guys met Robert today, what exactly was his attitude? What exactly
is going on between him and Sierra?”
Elsie asked the three men. Ivan was in quandary for a moment. He did not know how to explain
Robert’s stubbornness. He did not know how to explain that Robert had made them feel like punching
him.
“He seems to trust Sierra very much. He has even decided to marry Sierra next month. Besides,
Robert said that Sierra had saved him. She almost lost her life when saving him. Therefore, he
promised to marry her. We persuaded him to wait until he has recovered his memory but he refused.”
Jason explained what had happened this evening to Elsie. Else looked bad after the words.
“He doesn’t remember Gigi at all? Didn’t you guys ever mention the past?”
Ivan answered, “Of course we did, but he doesn’t care about his past at all. He even suspects that all of
us were involved in his disappearance incident a year ago. He thinks we’re all bad guys and ...”
Ivan sighed.
“He said that he knew Sierra a few years ago, and they have a son so he has to marry Sierra.”
“What did you say? Did he mingle with Sierra a few years ago?”
Elsie was very angry and her eyebrows rose.
“That’s what he said. We haven’t checked it yet. But I don’t think he will lie to us about such things. We
also can’t figure out how he had a relationship with Sierra a few years ago and how they have a son.”
Elsie stood up and punched the wall hard.
“I’m so depressed. Why the people around me are always being cheated on by men? It pisses me off, it
really pisses me off ...”
Elsie was roaring angrily at the side. The other three men could only laugh bitterly. Elsie was grumpy
and they were used to see it. That was why they did not give any advice.
Actually, the men were depressed too but they could not express their emotions and cursed straight
like what Elsie did.
After all, Robert was still their good friends. If Robert insisted to marry another woman, they would
respect him as long as the woman would not make him feel ashamed.
That evening, Elsie was so angry that she came to Georgia’s ward.
“Gigi, do you think Robert is a man who doesn’t know how to differentiate between good guys and bad
guys? He has had a son with another woman a few years ago. He had told you that he loves you so
much and you guys were about to marry each other. Who knows he’ll disappear for a year and bring a
woman with her son? He doesn’t even bother about you when you’re in the ward. I hate that I can’t
control this modern world, otherwise, I’ll kill him and kill all the flirts!”
Elsie kept on rambling about Robert and cursed Alfred a few times.
She had really been pissed off by these two men in this past one month or two. Although she was not
hurt by these two men, her best friend and best sister had been hurt by those two playboys. It really
pissed her off.
Elsie was very angry and she ended up sleeping beside the hospital bed. By the next morning when
she woke up, she planned to go out for a quick breakfast and then came back to continue her rage
about Alfred and Robert for what they had done.
She felt that Georgia was the only person who would listen to her complaints.
However, before she left the ward, she saw clearly that Georgia moved her hands again. She was very
excited and shouted for a doctor to come over to see what was going on.
By the time Elsie brought the doctor in, she found that Georgia had opened her eyes.
At that moment, Elsie did not know how to describe her feeling. She felt that her two-month anger had
disappeared and her whole heart was left with nothing but surprise.
No matter what, her sister had returned alive and Georgia had woken up. All these things were enough
to make Elsie feel happy.
“Gigi, when did you wake up?”
Elsie asked excitedly but Georgia just looked at Elsie in confusion. She seemed a little confused about
her current situation, nor did she know why she was lying here, nor did she know how long she had
been lying there. She could do nothing but let the doctor check her condition in a daze.
It took the doctor ten minutes to give Georgia a basic checkup.
“Ms. Clarke, Ms. Lane has woken up now. We have to do an in-depth checkup to examine her body
recovery condition. However, she’s in good condition now. If there’s anything happened to Ms. Lane
later on, you can call the nurse and the doctor.”
The doctor left with the nurse after he finished speaking. Elsie then excitedly grabbed Georgia’s hand.
“Why do you keep quiet? Aren’t you losing your memory?”
Elsie felt that Georgia’s look was weird. Robert had lost his memory. If Georgia lost her memory too, it
would be a big problem.
However, after Elsie asked the question, Georgia smiled gently suddenly.
“Why would you think I’ve lost my memory? When I just woke up, I indeed felt that my brain was blank.
I didn’t know who am I and where am I. It was as if my entire soul was blank. However, after the doctor
checked my body, I have returned normal.”
Elsie was relieved after Georgia talked with a clear voice and logical thinking.
“What a shock, I thought you had become demented. If so, I don’t know how am I going to take care of
you in future.”
Elsie started complaining. She was really happy and her tone was lively.
Georgia smiled for a while. Then, she frowned and asked, “I know it’s a bit strange to ask this but why
are you the one who accompanies me in the ward? I have woken up for so long and you don’t seem to
tell me any news about others. Where’s Robert? How is he now? And how are Vanessa and Annie?
Where are they?”
Elsie frowned after hearing Georgia’s questions.
If Georgia were her sister, she still could hide the truth with Alfred even though she was sad. She could
tell anything she wanted as she could not tell most of the things anyway.
However, Gigi knew everything. Thinking of the disgusting things that Robert had done, Elsie asked
Gigi tentatively, “Since you had just woken up, do you know how long you have been in a coma?”
Georgia tried to move a little but she found herself had no energy. After hearing Elsie’s question, she
frowned, “Have I been in a coma for a long time? I feel that I don’t have energy. Did I hurt my legs too?”
Looking at Georgia’s dazed state, Elsie did not even know where to start the story from.
“Gigi, you’ve been in a coma for one year. A lot of things had happened this year. Robert had
disappeared for one year too. He just returned to China a while ago.”
Georgia was stunned when Elsie said that.
“You said that I was in a coma for a year, how is that possible? I don’t feel like I’ve been unconscious
for so long, I can only vaguely remember that I was kidnapped. By the way, how is Annie?”
Georgia asked fearfully as Annie was kidnapped together with her. She was scared as Elsie did not
mention about Annie.
“Annie is with my sister now. She’s in G City now, so she is not able to meet you right away, but I’ll tell
her about you later.”
Vanessa was in G City? Was not that place where Alfred and the Chow family was in?
This made Georgia felt a little strange. She felt that her head was full of buzzing sound and she had a
headache. Judging from what Elsie had told, Georgia realized there might be something even more
ridiculous.
Georgia was worried and she frowned.
“Elsie, what exactly had happened that year? You better tell me one thing at a time. I’m panicked now
and I feel that there’s something that had happened out of my control, right? Where’s Robert? Why he
had disappeared for one year? Why he had just come back? I can sense your hatred towards him.
What exactly had happened to him?”
Georgia asked with great concern.
“Gigi, don’t be impulsive and don’t be anxious. Everyone you care about is still alive and well anyway.
It’s just that something has happened to them but they are all healthy and still alive. So, you don’t be
panicked, okay?”
As Elsie had said this, Georgia was relieved a bit because the persons she cared about were still
healthily alive. On the other hand, she was nervous as judging at Elsie’s tone, obviously there had
happened something that she could not accept.
It was already noon by the time Elsie had finished telling Georgia everything she knew. Elsie’s stomach
was rumbling with hunger whereas Georgia was lying in silence on the hospital bed.
Her tears did not fall but her heart was ruthlessly crushed.
“Have you seen that woman?”
Georgia suddenly opened her mouth and asked the question. Elsie nodded her head.
“I saw her, but I didn’t speak to her. Robert has completely changed. If I stand in front of that woman, I
doubt Robert would find someone to throw me out! Gigi, if the man has had a new sweetheart, then
you shall not care about him anymore ... You still have Annie, me and my sister. We can live happily
together. The most important thing for you now is to recover your body well. You have just woken up
and your muscles have atrophied after lying for one year. The doctor has said, if you wake up, you will
have to undergo rehabilitation and the rehabilitation process will be very long ...”
Elsie was trying to persuade Georgia not to think about the man. Besides the man, she still had a lot of
friends, relatives and her daughter. There was no need to make things so difficult for herself.
Georgia’s tears fell immediately.
“Elsie, not all feelings can be forgotten easily. If I don’t even try and I give up Robert easily, then I don’t
deserve to love him.”
“What if he is being deceived? I can’t give up on him without finding out the truth. He has been injured
so many times to protect me and has almost lost his life. I can’t do that. I don’t want him to be deceived
by others. However, if he is truly and completely in love with that woman, I will let go.”
