Snare of Love

Chapter 840 Two Days

“Could you please check him up?” Theresa stopped one doctor.

The doctor took a look at her and nodded. He tore open Armand’s sleeve and said indifferently, “The

wound needs to be stitched. You should go to the hospital.”

Someone called that there was another injured person inside, so the doctor walked in. It seemed that

the woman was injured seriously. The doctor urged other staff to carry her downstairs.

The man was arrest and taken away by the police.

After arriving at the hospital, the woman was sent to the emergency room for rescue. Armand went to

the surgical department to deal with his wound. The doctor checked the wound and said he needed

more than a dozen stitches. When the doctor was cleaning the wound, Theresa couldn’t watch. She

just looked away.

Armand’s wound was dealt with completely after half an hour. Theresa helped him up and asked,

“Does it hurt?”

Armand said, “Not at all. I got an anaesthetic.”

The doctor gave him local anaesthesia around his wound. Otherwise, he would suffer when the skin

was stitched. He wouldn’t have felt so easy.

“The police has informed your client’s family to come over. Please don’t worry about her,” said Theresa.

Armand looked at her, “I don’t care about her. She’s just my client. Even if something happened to her,

it wouldn’t be my responsibility. You worried me. When the man wanted to cut you, why didn’t you know

how to dodge?”

She was so freaked out that she stiffed and forgot to react.

“You are always like this. How am I supposed to leave you alone in the future?" said Armand in

depression.

Theresa pressed her lips in silence.

A doctor came over. Seeing Armand, he said, “Mr. Bernie, Mrs. Bernie has woken up.”

They were in the same hospital where Elizabeth was in, and the doctor was her chief physician.

Elizabeth woke up, but no one was with her, so he was trying to contact Armand. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’ll go to her ward now,” said Armand.

“Wait a moment, please. Mr. Bernie, I have something to talk to you about.” The doctor looked

solemnly. Armand frowned, “Didn’t you say that her injury wasn’t serious?”

“She’s not in danger, but...” The doctor paused a bit, “Please be prepared.”

“What on earth is wrong with her?” Armand was anxious.

“Mr. Bernie, please calm down.” The doctor said more solemnly, “Here is the thing. Your grandmother’s

brain was hurt. When she woke up just now, I went to check up on her. She might be suffering a short-

term memory loss.”

“What?” Armand thought that he had misheard something, “Memory loss?”

He couldn’t believe it at all. It only happened in the TV drama. How could it happen in real life?

“I’m not quite certain yet. She has Alzheimer’s disease, so she also has such a symptom. However,

she’s possibly got amnesia. We’ll check her up tomorrow to ensure about it.”

“Okay. I see.” Armand grabbed Theresa’s hand, “I...”

“Let’s go to see her first.” Theresa could understand how helpless he was now.

They went to Elizabeth’s ward together. Pushing the door open, they found that Elizabeth was half-lying

on the bed. Her head was bandaged. Upon hearing the sound, she looked over. Her dully eyes lit up.

“Please go in. I’ll wait for you outside.” Theresa let go of Armand’s hand. When she turned around,

Elizabeth said to her, “Who are you, girl?”

Theresa didn’t look back, keeping walking.

“Hey, I’m talking to you! Don’t ignore me!” Elizabeth snapped, “Let me tell you. Armand is married.

Don’t you dare to pester him!”

Armand walked to her, “Grandma...”

“Stop calling me!” Elizabeth snapped to interrupting him, “Theresa has lost her baby because of you. I

wonder how she’s doing now. How can you hook up with another woman? Don’t you feel ashamed?”

Theresa was taken aback while standing at the door. She wondered if Elizabeth had truly lost her

memories and forgotten who she was.

“Grandma.” Armand walked to the bed and looked at his grandmother, “Because Theresa and I won’t

have children, you want us to divorce. Have you forgotten it?”

Elizabeth looked at Armand. Her turbid eyes became confused. Suddenly she said in a deep voice,

“Stop talking nonsense! How can I ask you to divorce?”

Armand looked back at Theresa, meeting her gaze. They both were wondering if Elizabeth had truly

lost her memories temporarily just like what the doctor said.

Suddenly, Elizabeth pulled Armand’s hand and reminded him seriously, “Armand, we must do things to

carry the weight of our conscience. Theresa has lost the baby and was injured because of you. You

should be responsible for her and expiate your guilt. You can’t pester with some other girls.”

Armand said OK, “I won’t disappoint Theresa, Grandma.”

“Okay. Send that girl away. When Theresa comes back and sees her, she’ll be upset,” said Elizabeth

crossly.

Armand said OK. He walked to Theresa and pulled her to the corridor.

“It seems Grandma can’t recognize you.” Armand couldn’t tell what he was feeling now. He didn’t think

it might be a bad thing.

Theresa said, “The doctor said she might have lost some memories, didn’t he?”

Armand nodded. They wanted to wait for the checkup. The next day, Elizabeth had a checkup.

According to the brain scan, her memory loss was caused by congestion and nerve compression in the

brain. She might recover soon, or she might only remember the previous events and never remember

the recent events.

Out of the consultation room, Armand said, ‘Theresa, this might be a good thing.”

Theresa knew what he meant. However, she was still hesitant, “What if she suddenly remembers

everything?”

Armand was rendered speechless.

Theresa sat on the bench in the corridor, “Lola has transferred the tailor’s shop in City C to me. I’ll

develop my career there from now on. I can’t stay here.”

Armand blurted out, “I can follow you to move to City C.”

Theresa looked up at him, “What about your career?”

Armand walked to her and squatted down. He took her hand and said, “If you’re willing to, I can give up

everything. I can take my grandmother and move to City C with you.”

Armand’s suggestion came so suddenly. Theresa couldn’t decide at all.

“Honestly, after you left City B, I went to see you in secret. That day, you dressed up so beautifully. You

were talking to Oscar while smiling at him. When I saw you guys, I felt quite upset. I’ve been trying to

convince myself that as long as you are happy, I’ll be satisfied. But... I can’t let go of you at all.” He

stared at her deeply, “You can’t let go of me either, can you?”

“You’d better figure out how you can tell your grandmother I’m Theresa. I’ll give you two days. If you

can resolve it, I’ll agree. I’ve fallen for you twice already...”

Armand covered her months, “Don’t speak anything ominous. I’ve brought so much trouble to you. I

must compensate you.”

In the following two days, Armand kept convincing his grandmother, telling her that the girl who was

walking hand-in-hand with him was Theresa, but Elizabeth refused to believe him.

Armand told her what Theresa had experienced.

Elizabeth’s memory stopped in the period when Theresa was injured and left. Armand said everything

reasonable, so Elizabeth believed him finally although she was still a bit confused.

Armand transferred his case to another lawyer in the firm. Now it was under processing. The husband

cheated on his wife and beat her, causing the miscarriage of the baby. Hence, the divorce was certain.

The man was wiped out and needed to bear legal responsibility.

Armand let the servant take care of Elizabeth at home first. He went to City C with Theresa to buy a

house.

Theresa was afraid that he was doing it recklessly as he dumped everything in City B and moved to

City C, “Have you truly made up your mind, Armand?” she asked.

She didn’t want him to regret it in the future.

Armand said affirmatively, “As long as we can be together, I’m fine with staying anywhere.”

Before moving to City C, he went to see Matthew, telling him that he had decided to move to City C. He

wasn’t asking Matthew for his opinions but just informing him.

Matthew agreed with him. He has his own intention - Oscar had a young mind, but he was getting old.

JK Group, which Oscar was in charge of now, belonged to Dolores, so Oscar couldn’t be in charge

forever. In the future, someone must take it over from him.

Right now, Matthew didn’t have any trusted helpers. If Armand moved to City C, this problem could be

resolved smoothly. Besides, there was also a textile mill. Kevin couldn’t go back there for the time

being. Besides, Kevin was also getting old. Someone else needed to take it over in the future for sure.

If Armand settled down in City C, all those problems could be resolved.

Matthew also had another thought, but he would decide after discussing it with Dolores.
