Chapter 793: Chapter 772: Turns Out He Had a Car Accident

As Michael left, Ivy stayed in bed and rested her eyes for a little more than ten minutes before waking up again. Even though she was somewhat tired, her excitement kept her awake. She lay in bed and her mind kept involuntarily replaying the words Michael said during their wedding. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and she finally burst into laughter, feeling a sense of unreality. Ivy then pinched her cheek and patted her face as if she were a silly, naive heroine from a romance novel, murmuring to herself, "He really regained his memory? For real?! And what’s even more amazing is that he still loves me, and has loved me since we were children. It’s too incredible, I just can’t believe it. How could I not remember? He’s my big brother! It’s only today that I finally found out!"

Lying in bed, Ivy spoke to herself while looking ridiculously sweet and not at all tired of the happiness. The two maids who were watching her couldn’t help but join her in laughing.

Love really made women lose their intelligence, even someone as strong and determined as Mrs. Gordon!

But Ivy’s happiness was genuine!

Alette Larson watched her friend’s joyful expression and said, "Congratulations, Sister Ivy!"

"Yes, it’s really worth congratulating!" Ivy said with a grin, then asked, "Alette, when did Michael regain his memory? I didn’t notice anything strange. Was his acting too good, or did I not care enough about him to notice?"

Keeping a secret in a relationship might mean one person is intentionally concealing it or the other person isn’t paying enough attention. Michael had been with Ivy almost all the time, and she hadn’t noticed her partner’s condition, so she could be deemed inattentive.

"Sister Ivy, you didn’t notice because Mr. Gordon wanted to surprise you. You really don’t see it?"

It was obvious that Michael had planned this. In fact, no one had forced Michael to talk about how he pursued his wife during their wedding—he confessed everything voluntarily!

As Alette thought about this, Ivy finally realized it was true.

It seemed like something had been amiss with Michael for some time, but when?

It was probably when he showed up mysteriously in the Orchid Kingdom’s court. The way he looked at her changed from pure, deep love to a mixture of nostalgia and longing. She even teased him a couple of times, asking why it seemed like his gaze was that of someone who had finally won over a woman after many years of infatuation.

At that time, he didn’t say anything but replied lightly. She thought he was joking, but now it seemed his memory had already returned. But why did it return?

Under normal circumstances, memory loss is caused by a problem with the brain’s nerves, often the result of a severe shock or car accident.

It didn’t seem like Michael had been in a car accident, which left only one possibility...

"Alette, when I was taken away by the people of Orchid Kingdom, was Michael terribly shocked?" The only time frame that could be traced to him regaining his memory was when she wasn’t by his side. So it could have occurred while she was away.

"Shocked?" Alette carefully thought about the situation at the time, then shook her head. When Michael was brought to the hospital, he was already unconscious, so there was no room for him to be shocked. "Sister Ivy, do you think maybe Michael’s memory came back after the car accident when something hit his head? That’s the only explanation I can think of."

Quite obviously, Alette hadn’t considered that Ivy was still unaware of the car accident Michael had been in while she was taken away to the Orchid Kingdom.

Upon hearing this, Ivy immediately screamed, "Alette, say that again! Michael had a car accident? And he was injured in the head? Why didn’t I ever know about this?"

Realizing her mistake, Alette tried to wonder how Michael would react if he knew she had worried Ivy. Especially since Alette didn’t have Dr. Lucas Sandy to turn to now.

However, Ivy was too smart for her to deceive. It would be better to tell her the whole truth than to keep her guessing, so she wouldn’t fret unnecessarily. After all, everything had already happened, and Michael was perfectly fine.

"Well, Sister Ivy, on the day you were kidnapped, Mr. Gordon chased after your car and somehow ended up in a car accident at the highway intersection. Luckily, his car was a good one and he only got a bruise on his head. No serious injuries. He was sent to the hospital..."

"A bruise on the head and you say it’s not serious? Alette, are you lying to me?" Ivy was shocked. She had never known he was in a car accident. No wonder it took him more than ten days to find her after she was taken away, while it took him only a few hours on the way back. She had thought it was just a matter of efficiency, but now she knew it had nothing to do with efficiency! He’d been in a car accident. "Like Bianca, he has RH negative blood. Did he manage to get some blood then?"

"Sister Ivy, don’t worry. I’m not lying to you. Mr. Gordon really was fine. Lina was sent to the hospital first, and she was also RH negative. There was no blood left in the blood bank, so Ariana came to donate blood. That’s when she found out Lina was her sister. In the end, Miss Bianca rushed in and donated her blood to Miss Lina. So when Mr. Gordon was sent to the same hospital, Dr. Sandy already had Lina’s blood ready for him. However, when the tests were done, they found out that Mr. Gordon’s injury wasn’t that serious. He didn’t even need real surgery, let alone a blood transfusion. So you have no need to worry!"

"Regarding why Mr. Gordon didn’t tell you, he probably didn’t want to worry you. After all, he’s already fine. Sister Ivy, please don’t be angry or worried. Otherwise, all of Mr. Gordon’s efforts would be wasted. And, Bianca is very sensible. She insisted on giving blood to Lina to prevent you from feeling guilty."

As Alette finished speaking, Ivy’s eyes began to well up with tears again. It was the first time she realized that crying could be addictive, especially the kind of tears that come from overwhelming happiness.

In this life, she was loved by a man like Michael, and she bore a cute, considerate, and loving daughter like Bianca. Ivy thought that she must have accumulated a lot of good fortune in her past life to deserve this. Looking back now, the days when she was pregnant and starving didn’t seem as bitter and difficult. They were now the only memories she had that could compare to Michael’s deep affection for her.
