431 Let's Get Married
Three days later, Ryan and Emily visited Wayne in the hospital.
The bandages on Wayne’s head were still on, but he appeared to be in good spirits. He was drinking water while leaning against the bedside.
As soon as Ryan walked in, he said, "Wayne, it's me.”
"Who are you?" Wayne asked in puzzlement, frowning
Ryan stopped, looked at Anna in surprise and asked, "Huh? He really doesn't remember me?"
"Wayne, this is your brother,” Anna said as she shook her head and walked over to Wayne.
Wayne frowned and thought for a moment, and he still couldn't recall Ryan. Then he shook his head and said flatly, "No, | don’t remember you."
Ryan said in disappointment, "Ah! Are you serious? | used to act like | had amnesia, and | was super good at it. Does that run in the family? You can fool others, but you can't fool me!"
Wayne glanced at him coldly and ignored him. Then he said to Anna, "This guy is too loud! Get him out of here, Anna! I'm going to take a break."
Hearing that, Ryan was at a loss for words, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground. After helping Wayne lay down on bed, Anna walked Ryan and Emily to the door, shaking her head.
She gave them a brief explanation of Wayne's physical condition, "Aside from the memory loss, he's in good health right now. They'll take
the gauze off his head in a week. But he still has a blood clot in his brain, 430 Let's Get Married and we have no idea when he will recover. He'll remember everything eventually.”
"Is there really such a thing as selective memory loss? Maybe he's lying to us, because it doesn't seem real to me." Ryan asked.
Emily elbowed him and said, "Shut up! Nobody would ever lie about that!"
"That's not necessarily true. How could he have forgotten about all of us and only remembered Anna? This is not true! I'd like to speak with him again."
Anna stopped him, "All right, stop it. Even if he’s lying, I'll still take care of him."
Stunned, Ryan asked, "What? Have you forgiven him?"
"Yes, I've thought things through. I'll be with Wayne no matter what happens," Anna nodded.
"| guarantee that if you tell him that, he'll get his memory back right away," Ryan said cheerfully.
"Ryan, would you ever shut up? He's your brother, for God's sake!” Emily said, rolling her eyes.
"We can give it a try! Come on! It won't hurt anyone!” Ryan said excitedly.
After Emily pulled Ryan away, Anna returned to Wayne's ward.
Wayne turned back at the sound of her opening the door and asked, Are they gone?”
Anna looked to the two shadows in the doorway and said, "Yes."
