Chapter 2141

Christopher then hung up the phone without even sparing Jim any time to think, much less respond.Sitting in his study, Jim could not help sneering as he stared at the phone.Christopher had not changed at all; he would always retaliate whenever he felt he had been mistreated.Jim had just hung up on him because of his bad mood, and within minutes, Christopher had called him again to do the same thing in revenge.However, on the flip side, this meant that Christopher had recovered greatly and was more and less back to his normal self.Jim sat in his chair, contemplating for a while more, before finally standing up.He had yet to find any clues about Number-9 from the information his assistant had gathered, and he knew that it would not be easy trying to track down Number-9.Since that was the case, there was no harm in meeting Christopher for a quick drink.Besides, he was convinced that Bonnie had sent Christopher to talk to him about her and was curious to find out what he ha

At the pub, Christopher was dressed in a green shirt, sitting in the corner of the room as he sipped his beer while glancing at the time.He emanated an aura of elegance and aloofness that drew women to him, but even as countless women walked past him, he gave neither of them a glance and instead waited patiently for his mate to arrive."What is he doing here?"In the distance, Laura picked up her glass and took a sip from it as her gaze landed on Christopher.She had come to the pub that night to drown her sorrows alone.Initially, she thought that if she remained by Joshua's side long enough, he would realize how successful and attractive she was and see that she was so much better than Luna.She never thought that someone as handsome and successful as Joshua would turn out to be such a simp!He loved Luna so much that he would not change his mind about Luna no matter what Laura said.In Laura's mind, if this were directed toward her, she would call this devotion, but if it w

A young girl about five or six years old with big, beautiful eyes, rosy skin, and who loved wearing traditional dresses…This was June, no doubt.As soon as he thought of this, Christopher's gaze on Laura softened as he asked, "You say you came across her recently as a patient? What's wrong with her? Where did you see her?"Laura sighed. "I saw her at Mr. Joshua Lynch's house."That poor child. She doesn't have a mother, and her father recently left her too. She had no choice but to be put under the care of her father's friend, where she had to beg for her meals…"If this friend of her father's hadn't treated her so terribly, she wouldn't have fallen ill so easily."I hear that she came all the way from Banyan City. That poor child…"Then, she glanced tentatively at Christopher, trying to observe his expression. "Don't you agree, Dr. Roberts?"Christopher narrowed his eyes and replied impassively, "Yes, indeed. What a poor child; I especially pity her for having such a bad doct

"Me?" Jim snickered and glanced at Christopher. "I didn't think you'd care about anyone else but Bonnie now."Then, he shifted into a more comfortable position, leaning against the bar table, and added, "When you brought her up immediately after calling me, I thought you were here to speak on her behalf.""No, I'm not. She doesn't need to be friends with someone like me who hurt her in the past, much less…speak to you on her behalf." Christopher sported a self-deprecating smile, then lifted his head to stare at Jim. "Jim, I'm in the middle of something important now, and as soon as I'm finished, I might bring June with me to someplace up north."Aunty Rosalyn had already given me the recipe to formulate the drugs for my illness, and I'll be able to produce my own medicine in the future. I…"He paused for a moment before continuing, "I want to bring June with me to someplace where nobody knows us and start a new life there."Jim's entire body stiffened when he heard this.He lifte

"This means that…the child she had been pregnant with was not yours, but…""It was yours," Christopher said, staring intently at Jim. "The only person Bonnie has ever loved and been intimate with was you. As for me and her…"It has only been my wishful thinking since the start, and she never liked me back at all."Jim was holding his glass so tight that his knuckles had turned white. "She…was pregnant with my child?""Yes." Christopher sighed. "In the past, I used to think that you and Charlotte were meant to be since both of your lives had been intertwined since young when you first met at the orphanage."Therefore, I thought that…even if I lied to Bonnie about you and made her abort the child, it'd still be for your good. After all, there was no way you and her would ever be together again, so what was the point of keeping the child?"However, I never thought that…"He closed his eyes and let out a bitter chuckle. "I never thought that Charlotte had been lying all along."He

Tea Cottage?The driver froze when he heard this name that had not been brought up in a long time. "Sir, just to confirm…you want to head to Tea Cottage?"He remembered that the only time Jim had gone to Tea Cottage after losing his memories was to confront Bonnie, so why did he suddenly want to go there at this moment?Besides…had Bonnie not moved out of Tea Cottage?By right, Tea Cottage was nothing but an abandoned mansion."How is this any of your business?" Jim furrowed his brows when he heard this. He laid in the backseat, his eyes still closed, and said with a hint of impatience in his slurred voice, "Do as I say. Are you the driver, or am I?"The driver immediately shut up and started the engine when he heard the anger in Jim's tone.The car pulled onto the main road.Despite his eyes being closed, Jim could not stop uttering Bonnie's name under his breath.The driver sighed. As he drove, he could not help glancing out of the corner of his eye at the man lying in the b

"Bonnie…"The stench of alcohol wafted into the house as the door swung open.Jim staggered into the room, clearly intoxicated, and hobbled over to Bonnie's side."I miss you." He grinned at Bonnie, then laid against her limply.Bonnie did not see this coming at all, and so she lost her grip on her glass, spilling water all over herself and Jim.However, Jim continued to hug her tightly as though he could not feel the water seeping into his shirt at all. "I haven't seen you in such a long time… I miss you so much…"Bonnie furrowed his brows and pushed him away, then glanced at his inebriated face. "How much did you drink?"The stench of alcohol wafting off his body overpowered her nose.Jim giggled, then extended his index finger toward her. "Just…just a little."Then, he reached out and wrapped his arms around Bonnie once more and said with a hint of adoration in his voice, "I miss you so much…"No matter how hard she tried, Bonnie could not release herself from Jim's grip.

As soon as Jim finished his sentence, the entire room fell silent.Pin-drop silence.Bonnie held her breath and stared at Jim, feeling as though all the cells in her body had frozen.Her mind had stopped turning, she could not utter a single word, and she felt as though her heart had skipped a few beats.She bit her lip and stared dazedly at the painting on the wall in front of her.This was a painting that she and Jim had bought from a street painter that they encountered on their trip six months ago.It was a drawing of her and Jim, standing side-by-side on a bridge by the seaside, watching the sunset.They had not known that the artist was painting them, and it was only after they finished watching the sunset that the artist ambled over to them and showed them the painting, claiming that he could not resist recording this magical moment in his art.At that time, the artist had wanted to gift this painting to them to show his gratitude for being able to capture such a beautif

At the same time, Jim was not fully conscious, either.If he had been fully conscious, he would not have asked the driver to bring him to Tea Cottage, nor would he have said all those things to Bonnie.Truth be told, he had shocked himself when he pulled Bonnie into his arms.It was as though…there was a signal in his mind and body compelling him to do so.He did not even know why he had done that. He had felt as though there was another version of himself trapped inside him, ordering him to find Bonnie and propose to her.As soon as he thought of this, Jim closed his eyes and let out an exhale, then gently knocked on his forehead.Could Christopher have been telling the truth?Had he and Bonnie been in love before he lost his memories?Could he have forgotten Bonnie because she mattered too much to him?This sudden realization made Jim frown and pursed his lips in deep thought.A split second later, he shook his head.Maybe it was just the alcohol playing tricks on his mind

Jim lifted his head to stare in the direction of the stairs and called out, "What did you add to the soup?"Bonnie froze in her steps, then came back downstairs. She shot him a strange look and replied, "Oat milk."Then, she turned her head away from him and added, "I'm lactose intolerant, so I can't drink dairy, and besides, I just moved back here today, so unfortunately, I don't have any milk in the fridge."According to the original recipe, I'm supposed to add milk into the soup, but because I don't have any, I put in some of my usual oat milk instead."She paused for a moment before saying, "Even though oat milk and cow's milk are very different, they're both rich in protein, and this brand of oat milk doesn't taste bad either."She pursed her lips slightly. "Besides, this isn't the first time you tasted it. You drank it before losing your memories, and you even said it tasted good. What's wrong? Why don't you like it anymore?"Jim narrowed his eyes when he heard this.He di
