“OK!” Luke nods and looks at the ambulance and says, “you take the ambulance to the hospital first. I’ll
be there later.”
With that, he gets in the car and starts it. Claire quickly gets into the ambulance, too.
When they come to the hospital, there are few people and only the staff on duty. But when they see the
patient, they push the car responsibly.
The doctors and nurses push Leo to the operating room. Claire has to wait outside the operating room.
She stands for a while and Luke arrives. They sit outside the operating room and wait anxiously for the
doctor’s notice.
Because the situation is special, Luke doesn’t ask Claire why Leo has a sudden attack. Even though he
has told Claire about it, he is prepared for Leo to be like this.
Although he doesn’t want to admit it, he knows Leo. He’s smart and paranoid and he’s bound to doubt
Claire’s identity. He will certainly force himself to recall what happened six years ago.
Since knowing that Claire appears in front of Leo with her original face, Luke has had such
psychological preparation.
But he is worried about his friend. He does not forget the doctor’s warning that year.
The atmosphere is a little heavy and nobody speaks. Both of them are waiting anxiously.
An hour later, the door of the operating room finally darkens, but they don’t relax. An operation usually
lasts several hours. Why is it so fast today?
Is Leo dead?
The door of the operating room opens. The doctor takes off his mask and gloves and walks to Claire
and Luke. He sighs and says, “your friend has been ill for many years. He lost his memory and has a
blood clot in his brain. Although it does not affect his normal life, as long as his cerebellum is exercising
violently due to emotional problems...”
“Normally, if he forces himself to recall certain memories, he will have a headache. The blood clot hit
his brain stem and caused the present situation...”
“We know it. Please say the point. How is my friend now?” Luke impatiently interrupts the doctor.
“All right.” The doctor sighs and shakes his head helplessly. “We can’t operate on your friend. The brain
is the most important organ of human beings and every nerve in it is very important. Usually we don’t
dare to operate on the head because the risk is too high. In short, we can’t treat him because the risk is
too high. He may be in danger if he has an operation. What’s more, his blood clot is too difficult to take
out...”
When it comes to the end, the doctor can’t bear it. “The patient’s condition is temporarily stable after
rescue, but you must remember not to stimulate him, or he may die.”
The doctor nags and talks to Claire and Luke for a long time. Finally he says, “he has been transferred
to the senior ward as you requested. Go and see him.”
“OK, thank you.” Luke nods seriously. He takes Claire to Leo’s ward to see him.
What the doctor said just now is deeply imprinted on Claire’s mind. Her heart is throbbing. Fortunately,
Leo is fine this time, or she should be blamed.
Leo’s amnesia and his forced recollection of what happened six years ago are due to her. Claire knows
it.
So when Claire sees Leo lying on the bed and he frowns and is pale, she can’t help but feel heartache.
Now she forgets her vow. She walks slowly to the bed and reaches for Leo’s forehead. As he stops
frowning, Claire takes her hand back and looks at him quietly.
Claire sees Leo so quiet for the first time. Usually he is domineering and treacherous. Claire thinks he’s
a devil. Now she is not used to seeing him as quiet as a child.
Luke stands quietly behind Claire. He looks at Claire thoughtfully. After a long time he says, “Claire, do
you want to go back to have a rest? It’s too late now. You are a girl. You can’t stay up late.”
“It’s OK.” Claire shakes her head. She looks at Leo and says without looking back, “I’ll be here with him
tonight. I’ll go back when he wakes up. You go back to rest. I will stay here.”
“Well, be careful. You can call me at any time.” Luke nods. He comes up to Claire and pats her on the
shoulder.
Claire rarely takes the initiative to be nice to Leo. Luke is happy and even a little relieved. After their
business trip to City B, their relationship develops rapidly. Are they likely to make up?
In that case, Luke won’t stay here. He stands for a while before leaving the hospital.
Claire doesn’t care about anything else. She stares at Leo and is in a mixed mood.
She doesn’t even notice that Leo has a place in her heart. She often looks at Leo subconsciously.
Sometimes his every move affects her mood.
She doesn’t know it. Claire hasn’t been in love so she doesn’t know what the mood is or what she
should do with it.
Claire looks at Leo quietly. She takes his cold hands and wishes him to wake up soon.
...
The next day Claire is woken up by something inexplicable on her head. She wants to look up, and the
thing moves with her. When she sees the situation clearly, she finds that Leo has woken up. At the
moment, he reaches out and strokes her head.
Seeing her awake, Leo smiles. He says in a low voice, “you’re awake.”
“You... You...” Claire is so stunned that she doesn’t know what to say. She finds her hand still holding
Leo’s. She takes her hand back in shock and says awkwardly, “you finally wake up. How do you feel?
Do you still have a headache?”
