"Now that Jim has lost all his memories of his past, every day feels like torture to him, so I decided to bring him here for a checkup to see if anything can be done to retrieve his memories."With that, she reached out and snaked her arm around Jim's taut waist as she added, "Not only that, but there are plenty of deceitful women out there who, knowing that Jim has lost his memories, try to trick him into thinking he had been disloyal and promiscuous over the last six years."These women are certainly quite a pain in the ass," she said, glancing at Bonnie. "Don't you agree, Ms. Craig?"Bonnie stared at Jim's arm, which was draped around Charlotte's shoulder, for a while before finally turning her head away to gaze at the changing numbers above the elevator doors. "You're right. These women who try to steal other people's boyfriends when they are in their most vulnerable states are certainly quite infuriating."Her tone was as icy as the expression on her face. "Because of this, th
Roanne could not help the bitter smile on her face when she heard Charlotte scolding her over the phone. "Charlotte, are you sure you want to talk so loudly to me?"With that, she lifted her head to glance at the butler. "Can you excuse us?"The butler paused for a moment, then got up and left the room.After hearing his footsteps disappear, Roanne finally curled her body into a more comfortable position and said in a low voice, "You still haven't managed to bribe the Landry family butler yet, so how can you talk so loudly to me, knowing you dialed his number to get to me? Do you want him to find out about what we did to Jim?"Charlotte furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing this, and most of her anger dissipated.She was so impatient to know the truth that she let all her rage loose as soon as she heard Roanne's voice. She even forgot that the butler had probably been there when Roanne picked up the phone.However, even after knowing it was her fault, she still tried to put al
"When that happens, what you did six years ago will eventually be exposed."However, if you make him remember Harvey's existence, then everything will change."Charlotte's furrowed brows immediately relaxed upon hearing this. She let out an exhale and asked, "Does this mean that letting him know about Harvey will prevent him from investigating what happened six years ago?""I guess you can say that." Roanne let out a sigh and explained, "The only thing Jim remembers now is that Harvey was conceived with a woman he met in Banyan City."You can pretend to help him track down this woman. Now that he trusts you, he won't doubt you at all, even if we don't manage to bring out any evidence of this woman being dead. That way, he won't be able to find out that Bonnie was Harvey's mother after all."Clutching her phone, Charlotte's expression relaxed visibly as she heaved a huge sigh of relief. "I guess you're the smart one after all, Roanne."What she was most afraid of was that Jim and
Merchant City Central Hospital.After completing all the necessary checkups, Jim sat in the doctor's room and listened to the doctor's explanation."Under normal circumstances, people will usually lose their memories after being put through immense physical and psychological trauma. Your situation, however, Mr. Landry…is a little peculiar."The doctor furrowed his brows in puzzlement as he stared at Jim's lab report. "I'll prescribe you some medications that can help with your heart's function for now."A week from today, you have to come back for another checkup to see if anything has improved."With that, he put down the papers and glanced earnestly at Jim's face. "Why don't you go out now and ask your girlfriend to come in? I want to talk to her privately about some matters to look out for when taking care of you."Jim frowned upon hearing this. "Am I not allowed to listen in?"The doctor smiled. "It's just some boring instructions and special precautions, but if you want to
Bonnie never had the chance to hold hands with Jim in public, not like he had with Charlotte.Every time she brought up the topic of announcing their relationship publicly, Jim always pulled the this-is-for-your-own-good excuse to reject her.At one point, Bonnie had started to think that Jim's personality was the reason he did not like public displays of affection, but their encounter in the elevator that morning made her realize something.He did not mind displaying public acts of affection at all; the problem was who he was with."Hey gorgeous, what are you doing here all alone?" a leering man's voice suddenly rang out next to Bonnie's ear.Bonnie frowned and immediately opened her eyes.A roguish man who seemed like a gangster stood before her, holding a piece of grass between his lips as he ogled Bonnie. "You look like you're sick. Do you need someone to take care of you?"With that, he inched closer to Bonnie, grinning from ear to ear. "I'm great at taking care of people,
This voice sounded familiar…Bonnie furrowed her brows and immediately turned around.Jim, dressed entirely in black, strode over to her, staring at her with a gaze as cold as ice. "I thought that you trying to seduce me behind Christopher's back was just an act of confusion, but now, I finally understand that this isn't the first time you've done this."He could not believe how outrageous this woman was.Even during a trip to the hospital for a checkup, she could still find a way to tease strange men and even volunteered to sleep with the man after the baby was born!Was this how she treated herself?Most importantly, was this the way she should treat Christopher?Jim's cold tone and expression made Bonnie frown even more. "What on earth are you talking about?""What I'm saying is this—" Jim strode over to Bonnie's side and stared at her with contempt and hostility. "I've already warned you on the phone this morning that you have to treat Christopher well and stop trying to se
"The first time you and I slept together was at 10 p.m. at Tea Cottage ten months ago, on the nth of one particular month. I have two witnesses of this incident; one of them being your sister Luna and the other being one of your drivers who goes by Mr. Williams."The second time you and I slept together was nine-and-a-half months ago at Starhill Hotel at midnight. At that time, something drastic had happened to your family, and you were confused as to whether you should return to Landry Group to help your family or not. Witnesses of this incident were the housekeepers and the lobby receptionist at Starhill Hotel…"The third time…"The fourth time…"Bonnie recited these events as she scribbled them on the paper.She was writing so fast, and she was so absorbed in her writing that she did not even notice the tears falling from her cheeks and landing on the paper.She remembered every single detail of their time together.All their memories of the past year were inked in her mind.
"Well, we'll be off now, Jim."A pained expression flashed across Christopher's face when he saw the look on Jim's face.He did not intend to stay any longer, so he turned and left hurriedly with Bonnie.Jim remained motionless as he stared at Christopher and Bonnie's retreating figures.For some reason, he could not help but think something strange was going on between these two.Bonnie seemed desperate to maintain a distance between them, whereas Christopher kept trying to make Bonnie lean against him.Jim stared at them until, eventually, they disappeared from sight."Jim!" Suddenly, Charlotte, who had finished her appointment with the doctor, sprinted into the garden. "What are you doing here? I've been looking for you all over the place! Why didn't you pick up your phone?"Jim finally snapped out of his stupor and glanced at his phone.There were three missed calls, all from Charlotte.She had called him at the exact moment Christopher and Bonnie left, but for some reaso
