“Do you really think so?” George looked at Alyssa. “Do you truly think I’m capable to help my brother?”
“Of course.” Alyssa held his hand. “You are Stanford’s brother. In the company, who else could be closer to him than you are? Since the accident happened to Stanford, you must help him this time.”
George said, “I know. Of course, I’ll try my best to help my brother.”
The doctors in City B gave Stanford an overall checkup. The result was the same -- he must take an operation if he wanted his memories back.
However, Atwood didn’t tell Stanford about this result. He only told George about it. They achieved an agreement.
George listened to his mother’s suggestion and also thought that the operation was dangerous, just in case any accident would happen during the operation. Atwood believed that as long as Stanford couldn’t remember his past, he wouldn’t remember Amanda. Hence, Stanford wouldn’t feel bothered by the things in the past.
Hence, they didn’t tell Stanford about his status and privately decided not to let him take the operation.
When Stanford asked them later, the doctor who had been bribed by George and Atwood told him that his sickness was not curable. The doctor also lied to him that the memory loss was temporary, and he could remember his past at any time. Hence, Stanford believed that he could remember his past at any time.
Meanwhile, in City C, Amanda secretly went to the hospital and wanted to know Stanford’s condition. Probably it was because Joshua made him injured, or because she used to love him.
However, it wasn’t until she arrived at the hospital did she know that he had left.
Earlier, Stanford repeatedly told her that he wanted to say something to her, but until now, she still didn’t know what he was going to tell her.
Out of the hospital, Amanda was walking along the roadside alone. She still felt a bit disappointed and hesitant. She had tried her best to make herself become cold-blooded and hate him. However, she could still remember all the details that they used to live together. Possibly she could never forget about them all her life.
However, she also realized that they couldn’t go back to where they used to be anymore.
Their ending had been destined at the beginning.
He didn’t truly want to spend the rest of his life with her, so their ending was destined to be imperfect.
The wedding of Joshua and Bonnie was held as planned.
Bonnie’s parents arrived two days ahead. In the evening, Joshua invited all of them to have dinner in a restaurant.
This time, almost everyone had been there except for Andrew.
Joshua booked a big private box that could hold twenty people. They gathered in two groups to chat, one of which was all women. They were talking about their daily lives and the wedding.
