Simon Rhodes hurriedly ended the eting and rushed to the hospital.
He was quite excited after hearing over the phone that Ronan Rhodes said Vincent Rhodes had regained his mory.
He imdiately considered calling Shannon Quinn, but was afraid of any mishaps that would lead to false joy for her, so he decided to check the situation at the hospital first.
When Simon Rhodes arrived, Landon Sutton was still undergoing examinations.
Ronan Rhodes looked troubled, which inevitably worried Simon Rhodes: "What’s wrong with him?"
Ronan Rhodes: "It seems Master Nate has indeed regained his mory."
Simon Rhodes: "Then why do you look so troubled?"
Ronan Rhodes sighed: "When he ca out of the ergency room just now, there was a mont when I called him, he reacted. His eyes were different from lately, cold, seemingly displeased, perhaps because..."
Simon Rhodes sighed and continued Ronan’s words: "Perhaps he rembered the child’s affair."
Ronan Rhodes nodded in agreent: "Master Nate must feel very guilty recalling these, he used to spoil sister-in-law so much, frequently ntioning the little princess in her belly, but now... sigh."
Simon Rhodes: "These matters should be left for the two of them to handle themselves."
Ronan Rhodes: "Should we call sister-in-law to co over now?"
Simon Rhodes thought for a mont and said: "Not for now, let’s wait for Vincent to co out and see what he decides."
Shannon Quinn didn’t ntion to the child that Landon Sutton had visited in the afternoon, but when the child was getting ready for bed, he quietly pulled her into the room and said, "Mom, I saw Dad today."
Shannon Quinn was stunned, feigning calm as she asked, "When was that?"
Leo: "Just in the afternoon after school, grandma took out, and I saw him across the street."
Shannon Quinn hastily asked, "Did he want sothing from you?"
Leo shook his head: "He didn’t do anything, he just stood across the street. I didn’t call him, and grandma didn’t see him, then we just left."
Shannon Quinn lowered her gaze deep in thought, guessing Landon Sutton might be trying to recover so mories from those places.
Looking down at Leo with a curious look of doubt, yet afraid to inquire.
Shannon Quinn softly asked him: "Do you miss Dad?"
Leo nodded once, but quickly changed to shaking his head: "He made Mom cry, and my sister is gone because of him, I don’t miss him."
It was the first ti Leo ntioned the sister’s affair, hearing Leo’s words, Shannon Quinn froze for a mont, explaining: "The sister’s affair has nothing to do with Dad, Dad just temporarily doesn’t rember us, don’t bla Dad."
Leo: "Then when will Dad co back?"
Shannon Quinn patted Leo’s head and said: "When Dad rembers us, he will co back."
Leo pursed his lips and nestled into the blanket.
Shannon Quinn knew Leo had grown up; he understood everything inside his own heart, currently, she couldn’t promise him anything.
"Sleep well, okay? Shall I turn off the light?"
Leo adjusted the blanket and nodded obediently.
Shannon Quinn walked to the door, sighing lightly before returning to her room.
She felt lost about the unknown future.
Everyone said Landon Sutton regaining mory ant he would co back, but who knows how long that would take, or if he might never rember.
Facing the cool night, Shannon Quinn poured a glass of red wine and sat on the balcony.
After drinking, slightly intoxicated.
Lying on the recliner, reaching to pull a light blanket to cover herself.
Only the sound of the wind rustling leaves, without hearing the phone clamoring for a long ti on the bedroom bed.
By the riverbank.
The bustling city night scene on both banks reflected the river with glimring waves.
The man wore a dark shirt, blending into the night.
The wind by the river was strong, making the man squint slightly, frowning as he looked at the number he couldn’t get through to.
Sorting through recent happenings in his mind, thinking clearly about the many choices to keep from losing that child.
If at that ti, when he heard she was looking for him, he hadn’t left by the window to avoid everything but went out to et her.
Then perhaps everything would not have turned out like this.
Reflecting on the ti she lost the child, he never spent a mont beside her, even doubting the child in her belly wasn’t his...
The cigarette between his fingers, turning more crimson as the wind blew past.
Accompanied by trembling fingers, ash falls.
Putting the cigarette to his mouth, taking a deep breath, the smoke quickly blown away by the wind.
The phone rang, Landon Sutton imdiately lowered his head to look at the phone screen.
Seeing the caller wasn’t her, the trace of light in his eyes dimd again.
"What is it?" The cold voice, even through the phone, seed frightening.
Ronan Rhodes swallowed and said, "Master Nate, where are you? Have you returned ho?"
Landon Sutton was clearly not in the mood to chat with Ronan, speaking sowhat impatiently: "Don’t bother if it’s nothing."
Ronan Rhodes: "No, Master Nate, I’m concerned for you, actually sister-in-law is very understanding, you don’t need to feel too guilty, if you tell sister-in-law you’ve regained mory, she’ll surely be very happy, I think..."
"Beep beep beep—" Before finishing the sentence, the call was hung up.
Ronan Rhodes frowned at the disconnected call and muttered: "Stubborn man."
"Ronan, are you ready?" A woman in a tight red dress approached, entwining Ronan’s arm and asked in a sweet voice.
Ronan put the phone away, smiling as he hugged the woman’s slender waist: "Impatient?"
The woman giggled: "You’re naughty."
Ronan walked to the parking lot with the woman in his arms.
Ronan was always gentle with won, seemingly knowing how to make them happy, remaining gentlemanly when needed.
Just like now shielding the woman’s head as she sat in the passenger seat.
Of course, this gentleness wasn’t exclusive to any woman.
If you’re obedient and sensible, avoiding competition and jealousy, he might associate with you for a few more days.
If you’re petty and envious, he wouldn’t hesitate to block you from his contacts.
To n never lacking won, avoiding sentints is key.
Mutually beneficial relationships, parting amicably, should be the rule.
The woman fastened the seatbelt and asked: "Where to tonight?"
Ronan smiled while driving out: "Taking you sowhere fresh."
The woman laughed shyly with anticipation.
After driving for over ten minutes, they stopped in front of a business hotel.
The woman held onto Ronan’s hand while entering the hotel, the tone hinting at disappointnt: "It’s similar to the previous hotels, what’s special about this?"
Not yet entering the hotel, Ronan looked toward the hotel lobby and said: "Well, haven’t been here before, not fresh enough?"
The woman pouted: "I thought you’d take to do sothing unheard of."
