Chapter 185

When Chase and his bodyguard hauled Magnus out of the water, his eyes were tightly shut, and his lungs were filled with water At the hospital Morgan rushed to the scene, looking at the lights flashing in the emergency room He turned to Chase “What’s the status”

“He’s in critical condition, and his leg wound has begun to worsen, Chase truthfully replied Anger flashed across Morgan’s aging face “Is this all he’s capable of? He’s sought death multiple times for that girl! I don’t need to have such a disgraceful grandson in the Andersen family! Let him perish!”

Morgan trembled with rage, gripping his cane tightly “Sir, someone tried to assassinate him He didn’t jump willingly Chase quickly explained “Do you think I’m senile? Could that flower vendor have the capability to kill him? If he wasn’t desperate enough to jump, who could have killed him!” Morgan shouted in the hospital corridor Chase quickly steadied Morgan Sir, don’t worry Magnus will be fine. He’ll come around “Chase tell me, has he become like this all for a woman? | let Lucius temporarily take over as president to motivate him to stand again But he Morgan shook his head. gripping his cane tightly “Magnus loves Natalia deeply, and it’s only human nature Sir, you should go home and rest, I’ll stay here to watch over him, Chase said, guiding Morgan to the door Just then, the door to the emergency room opened, and the doctor pushed out Magnus Mr Andersen, the doctor greeted with a smile “How is he? Morgan asked, looking at the pallid and bloodless face of Magnus lying on the bed.

Morgan furrowed his brows “Mr. Andersen’s leg has been soaked in seawater it could take quite some time to heal. But the real concern is that he ingested a lot of seawater, he may suffer from selective amnesia the doctor explained “Selective amnesia” Morgan turned to the doctor. “If he could forget, that’d be great.”

What will he forget? Chase thought. He wouldn’t forget him too, right? That would be disastrous!

“Typically, patients with selective amnesia lose memory of the most traumatic events, because, subconsciously they don’t want to remember But over time, he might recall it Or it might come back to him suddenly”

Morgan nodded silently at the doctor’s words. “As long as he’s alive, let him forget.”

Three days passed before Magnus finally woke up in the hospital, feeling as though he had slept for an eternity. He stared blankly at the sterile white surroundings of the hospital room, wondering why he was there.

As Linden entered the room, he saw Magnus awake and rushed over in relief.

“You re finally awake You scared us. You’ve been asleep for three days, Linden said, setting down the thermos he brought and gently helping Magnus up “Why am in the hospital? Magnus asked in a low voice “Your leg injury worsened, so we had to bring you here,” Linden replied.

Frowning Magnus asked, “Where’s Dr Frankie?”

“He’s gone back to France”

“Call him back here immediately He’s the only one who can treat my leg Magnus said coldly, staring out the window He felt like something was off, as though he had forgotten something important “Okay, I call him right away. Linden said, leaving the room.

Upon receiving the call Dr Frankie and James immediately rushed to Melfort. As they entered the hospital room, they saw Magnus expressionless face “Magnus. I’m here! Dr Frankie said, worried that Magnus might not recognize him James also chimed in, Magnus, do you know who I am?”

Magnus shot them a glance, “What’s with the fuss? I don’t have amnesia James and Dr. Frankie exchanged looks, they werent so sure!

“Get on with checking my leg I dont remember it worsening Wasn’t it already healed? Magnus said, dismissing their concerns.

Your leg was indeed healed, but don’t you remember? You were chased and fell into the sea. The seawater caused your wound to worsen, Dr Frankre explained *Well seriously Magnus furrowed his brow Someone tried to assassinate him? Lucius?

Dr. Frankie stayed with Magnus in Melfort for two months During this time, Magnus was sullen and showed no unusual behavior. He never asked anyone what he had forgotten He quietly accepted treatment After another month, Magnus leg slowly improved and he was able to walk again Dr Frankie finally left Melfort, leaving Chase to accompany Magnus One more month passed and Magnus leg fully recovered. He returned to Sapphire island, and his demeanor and eccentric personality remained as they had been. He never mentioned anything about Natalia as if he had never experienced anything related to her To prevent him from being upset, Morgan ordered ( Natalia’s belongings to be removed Every day, Magnus would gaze at the blue sea, feeling as though a piece of his heart missing One day Morgan came to Sapphire Island Sewing Magnus silent and gloomy demeanor, he felt a pang af guilt.

“Magnus don’t you want to go to the company? After you were injured, I let Lucrus temporarily take over as presidem. Now that you’re well, don’t you want to j Morgan asked, staring at his grandson who had been utterly devastated by love Still, he coulder’t being himself to blame him.

“Grandpa, doesnt Lucius really want to be president?

If he’s in charge, hy’ll nui Magnus remained calm “Grandpa, you should think about your own well–being Lucius want ruin af And besides, I don’t care about being the president. Corporation
