Chapter 940Chris planned to check his brain again to see if the congestion had diminished when he returned to Bomsville.After Scarlett hung up the phone, she found that Chris was looking at her, so she smiled, tilted her head, held her chin, and looked straight back at him.Scarlett kept smiling, and neither of them spoke.After about two seconds, Scarlett got up, walked over, wrapped her arms around his neck, looked into his eyes, raised her hand to touch his brows, and said, "I'll help you take care of Tenton for only one more year.""Okay."Chris had already investigated Tenton and known everything.No matter what had happened before, he would never ask her to give Tenton back to him even if he regained his memory.But he still needed to solve all the problems over there within a year.He had been here for just one week, but he didn’t want to go back to Bomsville now.He disliked the food, the people, and everything there.Chris looked down at Scarlett with his black ey
Chapter 941Scarlett woke up early in the morning and found that she was in Chris's arms.It was still dark outside, and so was the room. Scarlett opened her eyes, and she could not see Chris's facial features until a moment later.She didn't dare to move for fear of waking him up. Later, she raised her hand slightly and outlined his face in the air.She didn't know when they would meet again after departing with each other today. Thinking of this, she felt a little blue.She wanted to accompany Chris back to Bomsville if she could, but she must stay here to help him guard Tenton.When she was deep in thought, Chris suddenly moved, slowly opened his black eyes, looked at her, and raised his hand to touch her eyebrows. And then, he put his hand on the back of her head, pressed it slightly, and lowered his head to kiss her forehead, saying, "It's still early. Why don't you get more sleep?"Scarlett didn't say anything but wrapped her arms around his waist and squeezed into his arm
Chapter 942"What?""It's not a big deal. Some stupid people say that I have an affair with Scarlett. I'm afraid that you will misunderstand when you hear the rumors. I don’t want you two to quarrel because of me."After Alexander finished speaking, he found that Chris was staring at him with a strange look, so he was startled and quickly said, "No way! Are you really suspecting me?"Chris sneered, "You're thinking too much. Anyone with brains knows that Scarlett's taste is not that bad."Alexander could hear the irony in his words, so he said dissatisfiedly, "I'm not that bad, right? Anyway, I am the eldest son of the Smith family. I am a rich man with a handsome face. A lot of beautiful women had accosted me on the street."Chris didn't reply but looked at him with a weird smile.Seeing this sarcastic smile, Alexander was speechless.This man had lost his memory, but he was as annoying as before!After they made jokes with each other, the sadness of parting became much less.
Chapter 943Scarlett watched as Chris walked through the security checkpoint. Not until he disappeared from view did she turn around to leave the airport.She had just gotten into her car when her cellphone vibrated in her handbag.It was a message from Chris, which said that he had boarded the plane.Scarlett gave a smile, texted him back "Have a safe trip", then put down her cellphone, started her car and set off to return to her company.On the third day after Chris's departure, Frank told Scarlett that a girl surnamed Lee wanted to see her.Scarlett gave it some thought. "Her surname's Lee?"In Juanton City there weren't many people bearing that surname, and Scarlett only knew a couple of them, but she had hardly had any dealings with any of them, and she certainly had never met any of them in private.The only girl surnamed Lee that Scarlett could think of was Camille Lee who should be in Bomsville right now.Scarlett collected her thoughts and smiled, "Bring her to my of
Chapter 944The door was closed. Scarlett, who was alone in the office, smiled faintly.However, when her eyes fell on the diagnosis on the coffee table, the smile on Scarlett's face faded away.She remembered Camille's words just now and could not help but frown slightly.It was true that Chloe was in poor health.Chole fainted and was sent to the hospital after Chris came back. Chole was saved, but the doctor also said that she could live for less than a month.She was now in a different state. After she was rescued, she was very weak and couldn't leave the ward.Chloe chose to give up chemotherapy. As cancer developed, she was in great pain and could only rely on morphine to ease the pain.Chloe surprisingly felt a little better today. She glanced at her secretary who had stayed by her side for more than thirty years and said, "Call Chris and ask him to come to the hospital today."It was time for her to say something to Chris.Just as Chris returned to Liechtho from Jak
Chapter 945In mid-May, Scarlett received a call from Chloe.Yet it was Chloe's secretary who talked to Scarlett on the phone.Chloe's secretary said that Chloe suffered a cardiac arrest last night, and it took more than three hours for the doctors to save her. Chloe was on the danger list.While awake, Chloe asked her secretary to notify Scarlett and request Scarlett to come to Liechtho when Chloe was dying."Ms. Reed, Ms. Wilson said she was the only family Chris has. He has lost his memory, and maybe he doesn't have any feelings for Ms. Wilson, but she doesn't want Chris to feel sad and lonely when he gets back his memory and thinks of her death."You are Chris' girlfriend and will be the closest person to him. As Chris' mother, Ms. Wilson hopes you can accompany Chris so that he doesn't have to face her death alone."Hearing this, Scarlett was shocked.Chloe came to Scarlett and mentioned Raymond that day. Scarlett felt that Chloe was unfamiliar with Raymond and just wanted
Chapter 946Scarlett nodded her head, "Thanks." Joseph glanced behind Scarlett and then asked, "Ms. Reed, didn't you bring any luggage?" "No." Joseph seemed to want to say something else, but Scarlett interrupted him, "Let's go straight to the hospital." Hearing Scarlett's words, Joseph didn't say anything else. He led Scarlett to the parking lot. The car drove out of the airport and headed straight for the hospital. An hour later, the car arrived at the hospital. Scarlett didn't know where Chloe’s room was, so Joeseph led her there. When Scarlett arrived at Chloe’s room, Chris was already there. Chloe's secretary was standing outside the ward. The secretary was surprised to see Scarlett, "Ms. Reed?" Scarlett nodded to her, "Secretary Emerson, how is Ms. Wilson doing?" The secretary shook her head, "Ms. Wilson was awake this morning, but she can't speak now. The doctor just gave her a shot of m
Chapter 947Probably because of the familiar fragrance and Chris's scent that lingered on the bed, Scarlett, who hadn't slept much in the past 20 hours, went out like a light. By the time she woke up, it was already dark. The room was pitch black. She sat up and felt groggy. For a moment, she thought she was in the villa and habitually called out to Hilla. Then Scarlett remembered that she was in Chris's apartment.Scarlett rubbed her temples, sobered up, groped for the switch, and turned on the light. The room lit up. Scarlett checked her phone and found that it was about 8 p.m.The apartment was quiet. It seemed Chris had left.Scarlett came out, saw the light on in the living room, and went over, only to see Chris reclining on the sofa, seemingly asleep.A laptop was sitting on his lap. The screen was off. Scarlett gingerly reached out her hand, trying to take the laptop away from Chris's hand and put it on the table. As soon as the laptop was taken, Chris opened hi
