69: Chapter 69: Husband, Hug !
“It’s not like that at all!
I really missed you so much!
Hubby, give a hug!”
Serena buried her face deeply into the man’s neck and gently rubbed against it, her voice soft and overly sweet, exuding indescribable bliss.
Lucas Shaw helplessly looked at the little clingy figure in his arms, stretching his arms around her slender, soft waist, pulling her into his embrace.
“How co you slept so long this ti?”
Lucas Shaw rested his chin on top of Serena’s fuzzy hair, his voice low and husky.
His dark eyes reflected the tiny figure in his arms, filled with warmth.
Serena’s eyes shifted slightly, a sly glint passing through.
She looked up seriously into Lucas Shaw’s dark eyes, saying, “Of course, it’s because I was with you in my dreams, I didn’t want to wake up!”
Serena blinked her clear, distinct eyes, her joy unhidden at the bottom of her eyes.
It was like a beam of light shining straight into Lucas Shaw’s heart.
His Adam’s apple slightly moved, and in a hoarse voice, he asked, “So because I’m in your dreams, I’m not important in reality?”
“It’s not like that!”
Serena’s almond eyes widened, and she puffed her cheeks in retort, “I dread about my childhood, but for so reason, I can’t rember those people’s faces.”
Upon hearing this, Lucas Shaw’s eyes sharpened, and his expression gradually grew colder.
“You an, those people from the experint?
Serena nodded and explained, “The last ti I was injected with the drug was the day we were rescued, I only have a vague impression of what happened before that.”
Serena lowered her head, feeling sowhat dejected.
She could recognize Lucas Shaw clearly, so why couldn’t she rember the faces of those culprits?
Lucas Shaw looked down, his gaze landing on the little one’s dark hair.
He sighed helplessly, gently rubbing the top of her head, whispering comfortingly, “Don’t be sad, it’s not your fault.
Co to think of it, I also can’t rember those people’s faces.
Is it possible that both of our mories were partially erased?”
Before Serena said this, Lucas Shaw always thought it was because of fainting that caused his temporary mory loss, forgetting those people’s faces.
But now, it seems not to be the case.
Serena, known for her extraordinary mory, could recognize him at a glance, yet she couldn’t rember those people.
This ans soone deliberately made us forget.
“But how is that possible?” Serena frowned, her eyes filled with panic.
She had studied dicine with her master for many years and had never encountered such a situation.
“Ordinary drugs can’t change a person’s mory, how did they do it?”
Lucas Shaw also fell into deep thought.
But still, had no clue.
He sighed deeply, “Don’t think too much about it, you must be hungry after sleeping for so long, let’s go eat sothing first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Serena’s stomach suddenly growled.
Serena’s face instantly turned bright red, and she quickly covered her belly with her hands.
Lucas Shaw was amused by her embarrassed deanor.
He scooped Serena up from the bed and strode toward the door.
With the lure of delicious food, Serena quickly put the matter out of her mind.
However, Lucas Shaw felt heavy-hearted and directly told Master Shaw and Liam Shaw about the issue that night.
Upon hearing this, both their expressions drastically changed.
“Lucas, are you saying that soone deliberately erased your mories back then?
But that’s not realistic!”
Liam Shaw shook his head, his tone filled with disbelief.
Causing soone to completely lose their mory might not be too difficult, but to erase specific parts of mory…
With the current level of technology and dical standards, it’s simply impossible.
Not to ntion, this was over a decade ago.
Lucas Shaw crossed his legs and leaned back in the sofa chair.
Under the light, his well-chiseled face appeared dim and distinct, making it hard to discern his emotions.
“I’m just speculating.
After all, that organization wasn’t completely caught back then.
If they were to resurface, the consequences would be unimaginable,” Lucas said in a low tone, his expression dark and unclear.
His usually expressionless face now bore a hint of heaviness.
Master Shaw remained silent for a mont, then pointed out Lucas Shaw’s concerns, “The only experintal subjects who survived back then were you and Serena.
If they really intend to re-erge, the first thing they’d do is check on the results of their experint.”
“Does that an they could appear at any mont around Lucas and Serena?
Even infiltrating their lives without them realizing?” Liam’s face darkened.
Lucas sighed, his expression turning even colder.
“What worries most is this.
It doesn’t really matter to , but Serena is still young and naïve, easily exploited by others.”
At this, both Master Shaw and Liam beca silent.
Thinking about Serena possibly being in danger at any mont made Lucas’s heart feel as if it were blocked by a stone, heavy and oppressive.
“Lucas, what is your plan?”
After a long while, Master Shaw sighed deeply and asked solemnly.
“I want to vet everyone in our imdiate vicinity.
The enemy hides in the shadows, and all we can do is prevent potential threats.”
Lucas stood up from the sofa, his dark eyes resting on Master Shaw and Liam, speaking in a low voice: “I’ll handle this covertly, let’s not tell Serena yet, she might overthink.”
“Rest assured, Serena is now a mber of the Shaw family.
We’ll do everything within our power to protect her thoroughly!” Liam walked up to Lucas, patted his shoulder, and then walked out.
After Liam left, Master Shaw looked at Lucas with concern, “Lucas, are you perhaps overthinking it?
Erasing partial mories from soone…
such a thing is almost unheard of.”
“I’m not certain, but we can’t be too careful.”
This issue was too important, and Lucas didn’t want any oversight.
If he were still alone, he really wouldn’t care about his own fate.
But now it was different.
He had Serena.
His little lady was delicate and tender, and couldn’t bear even a bit of grievance.
What would he do if those people hard her before he made preparations?
Downstairs.
Serena had no idea that soone was worrying about her safety.
She was happily enjoying the delicious food on the dining table.
Eating her favorite sweet and sour ribs, she squinted her eyes in bliss.
Lucas ca downstairs to find just this scene.
The petite young girl sat at the table gobbling up her food, blissfully licking her lips.
She looked just like a kitten that had stolen a treat.
“Is it really that delicious?” Lucas sat next to Serena, watching her with a slightly amused expression.
While chewing, Serena nodded vigorously.
“Delicious!”
“Eat slowly, no one’s going to take it from you!” Lucas looked at Serena helplessly and caringly poured her a glass of water.
