Chapter 622 Roger always took on shady jobs. Whenever he accepted one, he would be gone for a few months, sometimes even up to a year.
His b*ody now lay at the bottom of an unfinished structure.
Vivian had chosen the particular building for her plan to get rid of Roger as it was marked as hazardous. There was not a single soul inhabiting the building and no one would enter it casually. It was the perfect place as no one would find him there.
Vivian was confident that by the time someone found Rogerâs b*ody, all that was left would be skin and bones. He would be unrecognizable.
She calmed herself down as she got into her car, assuring herself that everything was over. She then drew in a deep breath, started the engine, and drove off.
Meanwhile, Natalie went home to get her things. She then made lunch for Brandon before departing for the hospital.
Natalie felt something was amiss as she entered Brandonâs ward. The atmosphere was depressing and b*odyguards were standing in every corner of the room. She glanced around and felt that the ward became dimmer with so many people blocking the lights. She found this weird as the VIP room was spacious enough to have a sofa and bed and still have enough room for walking.
Natalie widened her eyes in surprise and asked, âWhy are there so many b*odyguards in the ward?â
Brandon was sitting on a sofa instead of lying on his bed. Beside him were two strong and tall b*odyguards standing straight and alert. There was also a man and a woman with sacks over their heads kneeling in front of him.
Natalie looked at Brandon doubtfully and questioned warily, âHoney, whatâs going on?â
âWhy didnât you lock the door?â Brandon said accusingly as he frowned at Sean.
He then turned to Natalie and said gently, âDonât worry about this. I donât want to get you involved. Wait for me outside, okay? Iâll be quick.â
He obviously did not expect Natalieâs arrival.
Sean hung his head and apologized, âIâm sorry, Mr. Larson. I was in a hurry and forgot to lock the door.â He then walked to the door and opened it.
âMrs. Larson, would you like to go out and wait for a moment?â he said awkwardly but firmly.
Sean was not his usual gentle self. He was worried that Natalie might be frightened if she witnessed Brandonâs anger.
âI have something to discuss with my husband in private,â Natalie said with determination.
Walking over to the silent Brandon and holding his arm, Natalie looked at him and said softly, âI donât want to go out. My life was never in peace, and thereâre always people trying to hurt me. Iâm not afraid, and I wanna know what happened. You never treated me like a weak woman in the past, so why try to protect me from this now?â
Brandon raised his eyebrow, and he looked conflicted. He held Natalieâs cheek and said gently, âI remember everything.â
Natalie was stunned. She saw the familiar look in his eyes and subconsciously blurted out, âYou remembered everything? I thought you just remembered a part of it.â Since Brandon lost his memory, she had appeared gentle, calm, strong, and resilient. She wanted everyone to know that she was capable of taking care of Brandon and herself. She didnât need anyoneâs pity.
No one would know the pain she felt in her heart except herself.
Now that Brandonâs memories had finally returned, all Natalie wanted to do was to hug him tight and never let go. Brandon kissed Natalie on the forehead and intertwined his fingers with hers. He pulled her into his arms and said softly, âI need to deal with this first. Weâll talk about this later, okay?â
Brandon then turned to the b*odyguards standing beside the man and the woman and ordered, âUntie these two.â The b*odyguards obeyed and untied the sacks and ropes. When Natalie saw the manâs and the womanâs faces, she couldnât help feeling surprised. Werenât these two people Ameer, the old man who had offended her at the award ceremony, and his lover, Kathie?
âMr. Ortiz, looks like you were just putting on a show when you beat up Kathie that night?â Natalie asked as a cold smile appeared on her face.
âNo, Mrs. Larson, itâs not like that,â Ameer said hurriedly while waving his hands.
Kathie untied the cloth that g*agged her when they freed her hands and tossed it on the floor. She glared at Natalie and cursed, âWasnât it enough for you to embarrass me that night? Why are you doing this? Why did you take me here? Are you going to kill me?â
Kathie broke down and cried bitterly. Her voice was full of grievance.
âIâm not the one who brought you here,â Natalie said helplessly. She was also clueless about the entire situation. Feeling confused and a little frustrated, she whispered into Brandonâs ear, âHoney, whatâs going on?â Brandon tapped his fingers on the sofaâs arm impatiently and whispered, âI suspect they are the ones who tampered with the car.â
So this was what was going on.

ï¤Chapter 1329 Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen However, before Natalie could speak, Ameer immediately- rebutted fiercely and it was so loud that it resounded through the ward, âShut up! What nonsense are you talking about?â
Suddenly, a crisp slapping sound was heard as Ameer struck Kathie squarely on her cheek. She tilted her face to one side, and a red palm print instantly appeared on her smooth cheek.
Kathie cursed, âHow dare you hit me again! You snob! Had I known you were such a wimp, I would have left you for another man!â
âCanât you see whatâs going on here? We are now being interrogated by Mr. Larson and we canât afford to offend him. Tell him exactly what you did now!â Ameer roared madly.
He had seen how scheming Kathie was before. He now suspected that she had indeed done something behind the scenes to offend the Larson Group.
Ameer turned to Brandon after he gave Kathie a piece of his mind. He forced a smile and begged for his life, âMr. Larson, Iâve taught her a lesson.
Can you please let me go after Kathie tells you the truth? Iâve already sincerely apologized to Mrs. Larson that day. I wasnât involved in anything else that happened after that incident at the party.â
Ameer was indeed very old. He already felt his b*ody going sore within the first ten minutes of kneeling.
Looking at Ameerâs pathetic begging, Kathie realized that they were caught for a reason different from what she had in mind. She raised her head and stared into Brandonâs cold eyes, sending shivers down her spine. Seeing how an old man could give up his dignity so easily, she felt Brandonâs terror as clear as day.
âMr. Larson, I really donât know anything,â Kathie cried as she knelt on the ground. She begged for mercy over and over. âI havenât even seen Natalie since I was beaten up by Ameer that day.â
