Chapter 413

“Susan, why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you like me? Why won’t you make me an omelet?”
Jared couldn’t understand why Susan had changed. Her unfamiliar gaze made his chest ache, though he didn’t know why. He just knew he hated it.
He struggled to look at Susan, her cold face a blur in his daze.
What was happening?
Susan was supposed to adore him.
Susan blinked, looking over at Natalie at the helm, completely shocked. “Natalie, he’s really lost his memory, hasn’t he?”
The look in his eyes… it didn’t seem like he was lying.
He was back to being the arrogant, domineering jerk from college, which somehow made him even more detestable.
Natalie didn’t understand it either. This wasn’t how things happened in her past life.
Could her and Susan’s interference have changed things?
After learning the truth, Jerome had apologized to her.
And Wendy, to protect her own plans, hadn’t revealed the truth about Nathan and Joanna to her sons.
Had the whole family suddenly gotten smarter?
Natalie shook her head. “I don’t know what’s going on, Susan. Let’s just get him to the hospital for a check-up first.”
Jared was feeling worse, his vision darkening. He said, “Natalie, I know you just came home and the family misunderstands you, but don’t worry. I’m here. I’ll protect you.”
Natalie was floored.
This was… unexpected.
He wasn’t paralyzed, but he had amnesia instead?
Natalie said nothing, and Jared didn’t ask anything else. He was losing too much blood, and his body began to tremble.
Natalie glanced down at him, then
said, “Susan, open my medical kit There’s a red bottle inside. Give him or he won’t make
one of the pits
to the hospital.”
Still in shock, Susan snapped back to reality at the sound of Natalie’s voice and looked at the well-organized medical kit.
“Oh! Right, I’ll give it to him now.”
Jared was drifting in and out of consciousness. He vaguely felt a pair of soft hands at his lips, feeding him something. A strong, bitter taste filled his mouth.
It was a familiar touch. It was Susan.
“Susan… don’t leave me Susan heard him whisper just before he passed out.
Susan’s eyes widened as she stared at Jared’s pale face.
To be honest, she had moved on from him over the past year. No matter what happened, she would never go back. The pain he’d caused was all too real.
She believed in the fairytale of childhood sweethearts who went from campus to the altar, but that wasn’t her story with Jared.
An hour later, Jared was wheeled into the emergency room.
Natalie, still in her wetsuit, knew there was no point in staying. She headed back to her hotel, took a hot shower seafood

she’d caught in the fridge. She made herself a cup of ginger tea and took some cold medicine just in case, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
She sat on the hotel sofa, gazing out at the beautiful view of the azure sea and white sand beach.
She never expected to run into Jared here, let alone save him. Her feelings were a tangled mess. Was it because they were related by blood?
But her heart had already hardened; she would never forgive the Scott family.
Natalie stood up and went to the

like a tired, middle-aged woman.
