Chapter 292 Are you sure he is not pretending?
She couldn't stand by when Jason suffered from amnesia.
If Mr. Noth intended to take Jason back, she would send them to the airport. If he wanted Jason stay in the New York, she would have to go to Jason's home to pack up some of his living goods.
In the study.
Sarah made a phone call to Mr. Noth. While waiting the line to connect, she bit her lips nervously.
She wasn't sure if Mr. Noth could accept the fact that his son forgot everything.
The phone connected.
Mr. Noth's voice sounded.
Without beating around the bush, Sarah cut to the chase, saying, "Uncle Noth, is it convenient for you now? I've something about Jason to tell you."
"Yes, Sa. Please go ahead," said Mr. Noth in a low and gentle voice.
"Last night, I picked up Jason from Serial Medical Base and brought him to my house." Sarah tried to make it short and make it clear. "He is fine in terms of life, but..."
It was difficult to finish the sentence.
Amnesia and behaving like a child weren't a trifle problem.
When hearing that Jason could take care of himself, Mr. Noth was much relieved. The giant stone pressing on his heart finally disappeared. "It's not a big deal. As long as Jason is still alive." His tone was obviously light.
"He has lost his memory." said Sarah.
At this moment, Mr. Noth was sitting in his office.
After Sarah's words came out, he raised his eyebrows slightly and blurted out, "Are you sure he really lost his memory, not pretending to be like this?"
Regarding to his son's character, Mr. Noth had reason to suspect the authenticity of his illness.
"Yes, I'm sure." Looking out of the study, Sarah saw that Jason was sitting on the sofa and reading a story book. Then she continued, "Besides, Serial also said that Jason's mental state has degenerated to the same level as a five-year-old child."
"Then?" Mr. Noth was extremely calm.
"Nothing else, uncle Noth."
"Sa..."
"Yes?"
"Don't be so nervous. Nothing matters. The only thing that counts is that Jason doesn't become a fool. Don't you worry about him." Mr. Noth was set at ease.
In his opinion, since Serial had allowed Sa to take Jason home, it meant that Jason could recover by himself.
So...
That was just a matter of memory and mental state.
As long as Jason didn't become a total fool, he could easily hide his
illness from his wife and his father.
Sarah didn't expect uncle Noth's reaction to be so calm.
She was at a loss for words.
"Before Jason recovers, I may need you to take care of him, Sa."
said Mr. Noth. "After all, his grandfather is aged. I don't want him to trouble about it."
"Okay, uncle Noth."
"If you are busy, just leave him to Chris." Mr. Noth took everything
into consideration, "You don't have to spoil him."
"He's only five years old now..." Sarah emphasized.
"I know." Mr. Noth didn't care about it that much. "Kids shouldn't
be thoughtless when he is five years old."
Sarah took a look at Jason who was reading outside. It seemed that he was indeed a thoughtful kid as he didn't make any noise all the
time.
While she was silent, Mr. Noth reminded her of one thing, "Well, there is one thing that you may have to pay attention to."
"Go ahead, uncle Noth."
"He is good at pretending."
Sarah was stunned.
Pretending?
"With his current situation, he will recover sooner or later." Mr.
Noth was really optimistic. "He is very likely to continue to pretend
to be a child when his memory and mind state recovers so as to
gain your sympathy and attention."
"I don't think so." Sarah paused for a moment before she said.
Mr. Noth didn't say anything more.
Under normal circumstances, Jason would never choose to pretend to lose his memory. But now that he had really lost his memory, he would definitely behave like an innocent child after he recovered.
He knew Jason well.
