Chapter 788: Chapter 788: A Blood Clot (1)

At eight o’clock the next day, Celia Wade woke up early and helped prepare breakfast. Jordy Wade had woken up too and was on the balcony outside the living room, watching the rising sun.

After a night, he had come to terms with his current situation, amnesia. He had forgotten everything about his past, but he vividly remembered the woman who had once abandoned him.

He didn’t hate her, but he wanted to find her because he believed that finding her might help him recover his lost memories.

He wanted to regain his past memories, especially those with Celia. This girl mysteriously made him feel that she held an important place in his life. But why could he forget even her?

Jordy was lost in his thoughts. He didn’t notice when Celia had walked up behind him. He used to have sharp senses but perhaps after being bedridden for so long, his bodily functions had degraded somewhat.

"What are you thinking about? Don’t worry. It’s just a routine medical check-up. Whatever the issue, we’ll face it together." Celia thought he was worried about the impending examination and tried to comfort him.

"Relax, I’m not worried about the check-up," Jordy told her. Just as Celia was about to turn away, Jordy spoke again. "I mean, did you always call me Big Brother? And me? What did I call you?"

It wouldn’t be natural for them not to greet each other upon meeting now, would it?

"I used to call you ’Bro,’ and you would call me by my name or ’Lily’," Celia recounted their former nicknames. Of course, ever since he had decided to marry Avery Saunders, she had stopped calling him ’Bro’ and instead called him by his full name.

But she couldn’t tell him that now. She couldn’t let him remember that part too soon. If he chose to run away again, their future would surely be over.

"Then let’s use those names to address each other from now on... I just think it would be strange for us to start conversing without even exchanging greetings," Jordy proposed with a smile.

Seeing his smile, Celia’s heart pounded. It had been a long time since this man had warmed her with his smile. But of course, she understood that he was treating her like a sister, not a lover, in this regard.

Because of his childhood experience in the orphanage, Jordy had learned to endure everything. He was clearly in love with her, but he refused to admit it.

Out of concern for her "happiness", he was even willing to marry a woman he didn’t love.

However, Celia knew that such things couldn’t be hidden forever. Even if she didn’t say anything, he would find out eventually. She knew she needed to consider carefully how she would tell him everything.

"Okay, let’s revert to our old names for now," Celia agreed, nodding her head. As for what they would call each other later, they could figure it out then. For now, this was enough.

"Lily, give me some time. I promise I’ll take care of you for the rest of your life," Jordy said after thinking all night. Now that his foster mother was no longer there, and his foster father was in poor health, Celia was alone in the country. Besides him, she had no other family. Given his current state, she truly was pitiful.

When his situation improved, he should also visit his foster father.

However, there was something else he wanted to do now - find the woman in his memory. After all, she was the only remaining memory in his mind. Finding her might just unlock his blocked memories.
