War Took My Memory, He Took My Wife Chapter 9
Gina hesitated for a moment before finally letting go of my sleeve."Joseph, if I divorce Beckett, will you forgive me?" she asked quietly.I didn't answer. I simply turned around and walked away.Even now, she still didn't understand. Whether she divorced Beckett or not, I would never go back.Not long after Gina left, my parents arrived. They stood outside my apartment and rang the doorbell for ten minutes before I finally opened the door.The moment it opened, Mom threw herself into my arms and burst into tears. "Joseph, please come home with us. From now on, whatever you want to do, we won't stop you anymore…"Dad echoed her words, saying, "Son, we're really worried about you. You're all alone overseas. Your mother and I can't stop worrying."I stood there without moving.After Mom had cried herself out, I gently pushed her away."Come home with us. I'm begging you. You're our only son," she pleaded tearfully."When you released my medical records at that press conference

My reporter friend had already arranged everything for me.After getting settled, I reported to my new team. There were many familiar faces there. They were colleagues who had fought alongside me while we worked in Denbrov.My coworkers gave me a big hug and welcomed me to the team."Welcome home."The first thing I did after arriving wasn't planning a new project. Instead, I worked on gathering stronger evidence to prove my innocence.One of the cameramen handed me a flash drive. It contained behind-the-scenes footage from my time working in Denbrov. They had casually recorded those ordinary moments I had never paid attention to.They told me that if I ever needed them, they would always speak up for me.I accepted the flash drive and thanked them.A week later, the official account of the International News Network released its first statement, accompanied by the original behind-the-scenes footage from my reporting in Denbrov.In the video, I stood on the balcony of an aband

On the day I was discharged from the hospital, Gina arrived early to pick me up. After helping me pack my things, her phone rang.Beckett's voice came through from the other end, "Honey, today's Jamie's birthday. He's been crying for you. Can you come back and comfort him?"Gina glanced at me as I appeared to be sleeping and lowered her voice. "Let him play by himself for a while. I'll be there soon."She left.The moment the door closed behind her, I opened my eyes.I had actually been awake for a long time. I just didn't want to see her.I told the bodyguards that I wanted to go downstairs for some fresh air and asked them not to follow me. Then, I hailed a taxi and returned to my apartment.After packing everything, I booked the earliest available flight and headed straight for the airport.As I entered the boarding gate, my phone vibrated.I looked down and saw that Gina had sent me a message.She wrote, "Joseph, wait for me at the hospital. I'll be there to pick you up v

When I opened my eyes again, I smelled the familiar scent of disinfectant. I yanked the IV needle out of my hand and struggled to get out of bed. Clutching my head, I screamed.The next second, someone wrapped me tightly in their arms. "Joseph, I'm here. It's okay now. It's okay…"Gradually, my mind became clear.This wasn't the psychiatric hospital. It was an ordinary hospital.Gina gently patted my back, patiently trying to comfort me. No matter how much I struggled, she refused to let go.Little by little, I calmed down and looked around the room.Mom stood at the foot of the bed, her eyes swollen from crying."Joseph, I'm so sorry." Her voice was terribly hoarse. "I didn't know you had lost your memory. I didn't know you'd suffered so much…"Dad said with a pained expression, "We're sorry, Joseph. We'll find the best doctors to treat you. You'll get better."I turned my head away and faced the other direction, remaining silent for a long time.Gina immediately poured me a

The courtyard on the first floor was brightly lit. It was almost as bright as daylight.Gina and Beckett stood in the center, raising their glasses to give a toast. "Thank you all for coming to celebrate our wedding anniversary."She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Beckett on the cheek with heartfelt devotion. "Beckett, thank you for always being by my side. And thank you for giving me such a wonderful son."Tears glistened in Beckett's eyes as the crowd responded with thunderous applause. Gina raised her wine glass, the smile still on her face.Just as the glass reached halfway into the air, a loud crash rang out. A figure dressed in white fell from above.It happened without warning when everyone least expected it.The wine glass slipped from Gina's hand and shattered at her feet.The scene instantly descended into chaos. Some people shouted frantically. Some of them ran, while some others burst into tears.Gina stood frozen in place. Her eyes widened sharply, and both of her

Gina called me several times, but I didn't answer. My parents sent me messages telling me to delete the videos, but I ignored them.In less than an hour, the top ten trending topics were all about Beckett.However, it didn't take long for public opinion to shift.Spencer Group released a statement claiming that my mental condition was unstable and that none of my statements were credible. Mendel Group followed immediately afterward by holding a press conference.My parents personally appeared before the media and released medical records from the psychiatric hospital where I had been treated overseas. They took selected excerpts out of context, claiming I was mentally ill and had deliberately fabricated accusations against Beckett.At the press conference, Mom cried inconsolably. "Joseph broke our hearts! We searched for him for two years. He was alive all along, yet he never came home. Now that he's finally back, all he does is spread lies and stir up trouble. We never raised him
