The female escort was stupefied, looking shocked and terrified.
What she was shocked about wasn’t Jack’s loss of memory.
Instead, it was Cynthia’s words!
The female escort even raised her hand to touch her ear in a daze, fearing that she had misheard her.
Gosh!
As the only princess of the Hun King, and was being regarded as Wolf’s pride of the snowy plain by the tribes.
How could she commit herself to such an extent?
If she hadn’t heard it herself, even if she killed the female guard, she would never have believed it too.
However, the female guard’s face changed dramatically in an instant.
She didn’t dare to linger any longer. So, she tiptoed on her heels towards the stairs.
This was Medea’s secret!
She was just an escort. Instead, it would be a death sentence for knowing too much!
“My wife?”
Jack was bewildered as he murmured, “Have I ever been married?”
As he spoke, Jack tightened his brows gradually while pondering.
On the other hand, Cynthia looked gloomy.
She clenched her hands together.
Was it true… that he didn’t remember anything?
Just when Cynthia was nervous, Jack, who was trying to recall, suddenly had a painful look on his face. He violently raised his hands and covered his head.
“Ah!”
As Jack screamed, his face was distorted that he fell onto the bed, rolling around, “It hurts, it hurts. Why? Why can’t I remember anything?”
This sudden scene.
It had weighted off Cynthia’s mind, and the nervous look on her face disappeared.
She hurriedly rushed over to the bedside and soothed Jack, “Honey, honey, calm down. It’s alright with me here. You will regain your memory soon.”
“Why? Why did I lose my memory? Why would I be like this? If I were your husband, why would I nearly end up being sold into slavery?”
Jack looked in pain, with his hands covering his head, struggling and rolling. The veins on his forehead were even protruding.
Cynthia was shocked and hurriedly leapt into Jack’s arms, rubbing his temples gently while softly comforting him, “It’s alright. I had someone to save you. I’ll tell you about it when you recover a bit. It’s alright now with me around.”
Jack reassured gradually with her words.
However, the painful look on his face remained. His chest was heaving violently, and his breathing was rapid.
In just a moment, Jack’s face had flushed red, and he was sweating profusely.
The rapid recovery was not only due to Cynthia’s reassurance but also Jack’s efforts to forcefully suppress his thoughts of recalling the past.
This was because he found that it would get on his nerves as soon as he tried to recall it.
Such a sharp pain that went straight to his soul was inexpressible.
“Phew… phew…”
Jack struggled to breathe deeply and adjust himself. The sharp pain in his head decayed rapidly as his thoughts of recalling the past were gradually suppressed.
It lasted for almost five minutes.
The intense pain finally disappeared.
However, Cynthia, who had been lying on Jack’s chest, didn’t stop rubbing his temples gently.
“This time… it was meant to give me this man!”
This was Cynthia’s inner thought.
She had stayed up all night watching over Jack but pondering inside on how to boost her feelings with Jack.
Now that this man in front of her had lost his memory. This was such a good opportunity for her!
So a moment ago, she had decided in her mind to take on the identity of the man’s wife in front of her.
