Infatuated with my Ex-wife

Chapter 104: Amnesia

When Irene saw how Cameron and Eric were driven out of the company like homeless dogs, she felt

very happy and released a sigh of relief.

"Eric and Cameron have been dealt with, but where is Edward?" Irene thought sadly.

...

Meanwhile, on a small island thousands of kilometres away.

This island was far from the mainland, far from the bustling city. Most of the people on this island

survived on fishing. The scenery of the island was good, but because of its remote location and other

factors, it wasn't recorded on the map.

Therefore, except for the locals who would return occasionally, there weren't a lot of outlanders. As a

result, the small island wasn't developed into a tourist location or destroyed by humans. Therefore, it

could retain its original ecological beauty.

The islanders lived a simple life and got along well with their neighbours. They slept and woke up with

the sun fall and rise, living a comfortable and satisfying life.

The sky was clear, not a cloud in sight. Like a fine piece of glass emerald, it hung above the land.

There was a warm ocean breeze that brought with it the scent of the sea. The surface of the ocean was

peaceful, and the sun shone on it like a moving picture.

The golden beach was exceptionally quiet, and the only sound that could be heard was the sound of

waves hitting the rocks.

As usual, Susie brought her dog, Keani, out for a walk.

The breeze blew through her hair playfully, tickling her. As she fiddled with her hair, Keani suddenly ran

towards something. The dog had been sniffing around as if it was searching for treasure.

"Keani, where are you going? Don't run so fast! Wait for me!" Susie shouted.

In the blink of an eye, Keani had disappeared from Susie's line of sight. When Susie looked around for

it, Keani came out from nowhere and barked before biting her skirt. It seemed like the dog wanted her

to follow.

"Keani, be careful. This is my favourite dress. If you rip it, I won't feed you dinner tonight," Susie

lectured.

Keani let go of her dress and barked a few times before running ahead. Out of curiosity, Susie followed

it.

Keani brought her to the back of a big reef. Edward lay on the beach alone because the reef wasn't

frequented. If it weren't for Keani, she didn't know how long the man would've been lying here.

Susie was afraid. This man wasn't a corpse, was he?

Keani walked up to the man and barked at Susie, "Woof woof woof woof!"

Susie gathered her courage and walked over to the man. She was surprised by the man's handsome

face and thought, "T-This man! He's hot!"

His face was a little pale from being swept about by the ocean, but he still looked dashing.

His blue and white clothes were stuck to his body, displaying his slender and straight figure. Under his

messy short hair was a pair of unruly eyebrows, and his slightly curled eyelashes made him very sexy.

Susie could easily imagine how handsome he would look if he smiled. His nose was tall and his eyes

were closed. He looked like a prince from a fairy tale. It seemed like he was waiting for the princess to

wake him up.

Susie swore that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen. None of the men on the island

could compare.

When she saw that his chest was stained with blood, Susie snapped back to her senses. It seemed like

he had been injured. Quickly, she checked if he was still breathing. He was.

It wouldn't be fair if such a good-looking person died.

Susie saw the man's right fist was clenched tightly like he was holding something important. She tried

her best to open it, but no matter how much strength she used, she couldn't! She decided to let it be. It

would be better to send him to the hospital so his wounds wouldn't worsen.

Susie lifted the man up with some difficulty. Under his tall figure, she looked very small.

"Oof, he's so heavy!" Susie said as she slowly walked towards the hospital.

"Keani, you're amazing! You used to find seashells and conches, but this time you actually found a

person for me," Susie complained.

If Irene were here, she would notice that he was Edward, who had fallen into the ocean.

Nobody expected that Edward would drift to this uncharted island. It was far away from S City, so it

made sense that they hadn't located him yet.

...

"Doctor, how is he?" Susie asked.

"Fortunately, the knife wound on his chest didn't strike any vitals. But these are all secondary. There's a

blood clot in his brain. It might affect his memory when he wakes up," said the doctor.

"Blood clot? Amnesia?" Susie asked in surprise.

"Yes, it seems like he bumped his head against the reefs of the ocean. But he seems to be stable. If

things were worse, he might be paralysed for life."

"It also seems like he has been floating in the sea for a few days. He's lucky to be alive. It's not

impossible for him to recover his memory in the future," said the doctor in comfort.

"His will to survive is really strong. He had been floating for so many days and he has suffered a heavy

blow to his head. It's not easy to save him," the doctor said with a heavy sigh.

Susie couldn't find any information about his identity, let alone contact his family.

Susie finally managed to unclench his right hand and found a blue diamond ring in his hand. It was the

most beautiful piece of jewellery she had ever seen in her life. Nothing else could be compared.

Even the diamond on the ring belonging to the richest family on the island wasn't so big, and there

were no jewellery shops on the island.

Susie always thought that the diamond rings on TV were beautiful and big, but nothing could be

compared to the one in front of her. If this ring was like the moon, then those she had seen were like

little fireflies. How could fireflies compete with the moon?

Susie didn't doubt its authenticity. After all, it was so beautiful, and nobody would doubt it unless they

were blind.

The diamond was carved into a heart shape. A beautiful blue light was reflected from different angles.

Susie was curious when she saw how a mermaid could be seen within the diamond.

She wasn't sure if it was carved from the inside or placed in by someone. Susie was amazed by the

talent and skill of the artisan. She didn't know how they could make it appear natural and beautiful.

Susie carefully put away the ring and planned to give it to him after he woke up.

She had a vague feeling that the man lying on the bed wasn't a random person. It was obvious from

this priceless diamond ring alone.

Susie didn't covet the diamond ring when she heard the doctor say he might lose his memory. Sure,

she liked it a lot, but it was one thing to like it, and another to keep it for herself. She had been raised

with good morals and didn't condone such shameful behaviour. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Over the past few days, Susie had been taking care of him in the hospital. After all, she had saved him.

Even though she couldn't contact his family, she would see through this matter to the end.

"Why haven't you woken up yet? You've been sleeping for a few days now. What will happen if you

never awaken?" Susie muttered from her place beside the hospital bed. She then continued to talk

about some trivial matters of life to kill time.

She had been very bored in the hospital during the last few days. She talked to Edward about

everything. After all, he was in a coma and couldn't hear her, right?

Edward could only see darkness before his eyes. He was stumbling in a dark place. It was so dark that

he couldn't see his fingers. He didn't know who he was or where he was going, but a voice in his mind

told him to keep moving forwards. He had to do something important.

"What was it?"

He could see a woman's figure in his mind, but he couldn't see her face. Everything was related to her.

He felt a sense of familiarity when he saw her, but he couldn't remember who she was.

"She should be a very important person. But why can't I remember who she is?" Edward thought.

He wasn't sure how long he had been walking on this road. Many things lay beyond his reach, and he

couldn't touch them. So, he continued to move forwards. He was sure that he would eventually find the

exit if he continued to walk.

A while later, he finally saw a glimmer of light before him. He could hear a distant but distinct female

voice.

He listened to her as she rambled about her day. He also heard her ask when he would wake up.

"Am I in a coma?" Edward wondered.

The lady sounded adorable. He felt like laughing when she spoke about her childhood.

He walked towards the light, and he could hear her sweet and energetic voice by his ear. He was no

longer alone on his journey.

After a long time, he finally arrived at the light. It was so bright, and he couldn't open his eyes.

His eyelids felt heavy, but he tried his best to open his eyes and see his surroundings clearly. Finally,

he was no longer shrouded in darkness.

As Susie rambled, she suddenly realised that Edward had moved. Was he about to wake up?

She quickly stepped forwards and held her breath. She didn't want to disturb the person before her.

Slowly, Edward opened his eyes and blinked. It took a while for him to get used to it. Then he turned to

look at her.

Edward observed the girl before him. She had thick, black, shoulder-length hair, and her eyelashes

were curled nicely. Her eyes were wide open in surprise, and she looked adorable. She wore a light

green dress, and it contrasted her fair complexion well.
