Chapter 498
“Don’t waste any more time here. We’ll talk when we get back. The most important thing now is to find Peter!” Marina sounded very anxious.
“It’s all my fault. Peter was clearly in a bad mood last night. Why didn’t I pay more attention?
“I should have gotten someone to guard Peter all the time. That way, Peter wouldn’t have been able to sneak away alone!”
Marina’s tone was filled with frustration.
However, Simon grabbed Marina’s shoulders.
“Marina, calm down. Peter did not leave willfully.” Simon said seriously.
“What are you trying to say?” Marina frowned at him.
“I just had a video call back home this morning. They said our children have been feeling down since we left.
“Not only did they not drink much milk, they even cried at night. The children miss you.” Simon could only use their children to persuade Marina.
When Marina heard this, the expression on her face changed slightly.
“Marina, I know you’re very worried about Jessica, but you’ve been here too long. It’s time to go back.
“Let’s leave the rest to Peter.
Tve already left Carter with him. Carter will definitely do his best to help Peter,” Simon said slowly.
When Marina heard him, she finally collapsed on the lounge weakly.
That afternoon, Simon took Marina home.
To be honest, Simon didn’t have to bring Marina back.
However, Marina had just given birth and she had not recovered entirely.
If Marina continued to stress over this, it would have a huge negative impact on her body.
After Marina returned home, the two little darlings‘ conditions clearly improved.
They ate well and slept soundly every day. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
The two darlings gradually grew. They now looked different from the redness they had when the two darlings were born.
The two little fellows were currently so beautiful that anyone would want to pack them up in a sack and bring them home.
After Marina returned, she did not mention Jessica even once.
Moreover, Marina looked especially happy and natural every day.
It was as if Marina had forgotten entirely about the matter.
However, there were a few times when Simon woke up at night and found Marina sitting quietly at the desk alone.
Marina was looking at the photo frame in her hand.
It was a photo of Marina and Jessica.
Simon pretended not to know about this.
After all, Marina also needed to vent her emotions.
This way, Marina wouldn’t get sick from holding it in.
Time passed day by day.
Carter would send Simon daily updates on what was happening.
However, Simon and Marina’s hopes were always dashed.
There was no word from the Moore family either.
The Moore family did not beg Marina to bring Peter back because they knew their family owed Jessica far too much.
It wasn’t until a year later, on Emily and Evan’s first birthday banquet, that things changed.
The two little fellows had enjoyed everyone’s attention since they were born.
For their first birthday banquet, everything was incomparably luxurious.
However, from the moment she woke up this morning, Marina had been feeling a little uneasy.
Marina felt as if something was about to happen.
For this reason. Marina specifically asked people to watch out for Emily and Evan’s safety.
However, Marina was wrong. The children were not the target,
It was Marina.
Moreover, it was from an old acquaintance.
Half an hour before the first birthday banquet started, Marina went to the washroom.
When Marina came out, she realized that someone was standing in the room.
It was Sharon.
“Sharon? You’re back. Why are you here? Everyone is in the banquet hall in front. I’ll take you there,” Marina said slowly.
Ever since Marina took Sharon’s memories, Sharon had lived a life of normalcy.
Sharon had gone to school and then went on to pursue education abroad.
For the past year, Sharon had been studying.
Coincidentally, Sharon was invited back to attend the first birthday banquet of the two children.
However, because Marina was too busy today, she had not had time to meet Sharon.
After Marina finished speaking, the expression on Sharon’s face remained unchanged.
Sharon just looked at Marina steadily.
At that moment, Marina had already guessed that Sharon had regained her memory.
“You… You remember everything?” Marina probed.
“Yes.” Sharon admitted without hesitation.
“Why did you suddenly remember everything? Logically speaking, you shouldn’t be able to recall your memories. Marina remained very confident in her skills.
“Do you want me to never remember? Continue to remain utterly clueless?” There was a hint of mockery in Sharon’s tone. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that Lambert was the one who told me to do it. I was only listening to him,” Marina said.
“Lambert…” When Sharon heard Lambert’s name, her expression finally changed slightly.
“Did you meet someone, or did you do something? Can you tell me how you recall your memories?” Marina probed cautiously.
Sharon did not answer Marina’s question.
Sharon only raised her head and looked at Marina with a burning gaze.
“Although you took my memories, I still have to thank you for saving my life.
“I didn’t come back this time to argue with you about this. I have found someone you’re looking for,” Sharon said slowly.
“Found someone? Who?” Marina could not help but frown.
Sharon slowly moved aside.
Only then did Marina realize that there was a slender figure lying on the couch behind Sharon.
When Marina saw the person’s face clearly, she immediately rushed forward.
“Jessica? Why are you with Jessica?” Marina looked at Sharon in shock.
“When I regained my memory, I wanted to look for Lambert. I didn’t expect to meet Jessica.
“I knew Jessica was your good friend, and you were Lambert’s sister, so I saved her.
“However, Jessica’s condition was too dangerous at that time. Out of desperation, I could only inject the medical component extracted from my blood, Sharon explained.
“What?” When Marina heard this, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
“My serum has the effect of healing quickly. Jessica was seriously injured at that time and was about to die. This is the only way to save her I can think of.” Sharon glanced at Jessica, who remained unconscions.
“How’s her health?” Marina was only taken aback for a second before she recovered.
These things could be discussed later. It was more vital that Jessica was still alive.
*There should be some subtle changes in lessica’s body, but I cannot be sure what the precise changes are,” Sharon said.
