Daddy, don't flirt

Chapter 386: This Is a Photo of You

Suddenly, the door is opened. Twelve comes in hurriedly from outside and sees Ryan who has been awakened by herself. There is worry in her eyes. “Don’t you have a rest these days?” asks Twelve.

Ryan does not answer her, but rubs his eyes. He just had a light sleep. Although he is still a little tired, his mental state is good.

"I'm afraid you can't stay here any longer. Jack is caught by them and is now being chased everywhere. He wants you to go and see him right now. After all, you have most of the forces.” says Twelve. Although Twelve is very dissatisfied with Jack, she has no choice at this moment, because Jack knows some secrets that are against Ryan.

There is nothing she could do but compromise. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Ryan frowns, feeling disgusted at the news.

“Where is he now?”

"On the islands of the residents. I have them protected."

Ryan turns to look at Jamie, who is still asleep, and, without hesitation, he turns to walk out the door.

"Take good care of her."

He leaves the room leaving the words.

Twelve gives a light sigh. She would take care of her. But his meaning is to watch her and not let other people get her out. But Jamie is half dead now and no one knows she's here as long as she doesn't leave.

Twelve is very confident about this, because even Night. 9’s medical skills could not wake her up, it seems that she would be in a coma for a long time.

"Click!" the door closes.

Then the fingers that the sleeper has placed by Twelve’s side move suddenly. One of her fingers move, and then two, and then, with a slight quiver of her eyelashes, her eyes open.

Jamie's dry, aching eyes close uncomfortably as she looks at the strange blue ceiling, then opens it again and she feels better.

Her watery eyes move, her fine brows pucker slightly as she looks at the strange surroundings.

Where is this?

Jamie feels like she's been stuffed with a million bits of ice and then being broken off inside her. It's so cold and painful that she can't even turn her joints around, and when she moves, she makes a loud sound.

She tries to sit up, but she could not muster the strength to even move her fingers.

Then the door opens and in comes Twelve, with a bowl of medicine in her hand. Jamie is still in a trance these days, but she is able to swallow and drink small amounts of medicine and water.

When Jamie opens her eyes, she raises an eyebrow in surprise. Twelve takes out her mobile phone and wants to call Ryan, but thinking that he is off to a residential island now. It’s no difference to tell him when he is back. Then Twelve walks up to Jamie with a bowl and sits down beside her.

"Are you awake?" Her voice is mild. Jamie turns to look at her with doubt.

The color in her eyes surprises Twelve. What kind of that look is?

It’s blank and pure, with a trace of doubt, but very clear, just like a newborn baby.

"Who are you? Where is this?" Jamie can't move. Ryan has been medicating her for the past few days and her voice is not that hoarse, but she still feels uncomfortable when talking.

Jamie would have been fine, but last night she had a fever, and after being in the sea for so long, she was so hot and the fever isn’t brought down.

"You can call me Twelve. You don't have to know where this is." answers Twelve. She turns over the medicine in the bowl with a spoon.

But what Jamie says next surprises Twelve.

"Then... Who am I?" Jamie's eyes are watery and innocent, looking at Twelve with a look of unease and emptiness.

Twelve drops her spoon back into the bowl. She looks at Jamie in surprise and stares at her carefully, not letting go of anything.

Did she forget everything? Or is she acting?

Twelve’s eyes look a little complicated, and she stops stirring the medicine because Jamie's eyes are pure and clean, and she is not acting.

Jamie was rescued with a bruise on her forehead, which might have made her lose her memory.

But... Twelve has to be careful. She gives Jamie the medicine and watches her, but she doesn't see anything wrong.

Jamie’s attitude towards Twelve is a bit of resistant, which is a normal reaction when meeting strangers.

But when Twelve calls the doctor to examine Jamie, it turns out that the bruise on her forehead does cause a temporary loss of memory, although it's not clear when her memory will recover. It could recover in half a month, or not forever.

Twelve is relieved and then sees the doctor off. She sits down in front of Jamie.

Jamie is still a little wary of Twelve, but seeing that she isn't going to hurt her, it makes her less defensive.

"I'll tell you who you are." Twelve tries to lower his voice so as not to frighten her, then says, "Your name is Jamie. You are my master's fiancée, and you lost your memory when you fell into the sea for a mission."

“Who is your master?” asks Jamie, taking Twelve’s words with a grain of salt. It's impossible for her to believe what she says.

"His name is Ryan, and you love him very much, and you made a pact that when this assignment is done, you would get engaged." Twelve smiles a little palely, and as she looks into Jamie's clear eyes, somehow a sense of guilt rises in her heart.

Jamie is skeptical about what she says, but she is shaken by the sincerity of Twelve's words and the way she looks at her sympathetically.

But although she lost her memory, she is not a fool, without evidence, how could she believe it?

"If he really is my fiancé, why isn’t he by my side when I wake up? Besides, I don't remember anything about it." she says, frowning.

Remembering something, Twelve puts down her bowl and walks to a table in the room with a framed picture of Ryan and Jamie.

This is a photo of Jamie and Ryan in the UK. There's only one of them, but Ryan keeps it in this room like a treasure.

Twelve holds the frame in front of Jamie, and tells her, "This is you and him."

Jamie couldn't move and could only stare at the picture, but the girl in the picture with a fresh smile is indeed her.

Jamie looks down at Twelve with a complicated look in her eyes. "Am I really this man's fiancée?"

Twelve feels relieved when she sees her finally believes her. It’s fine to kill, but she would feel guilty when lies to such a pure girl.

But twelve will feel even more guilty if she doesn't lie to Jamie at this point and gains her trust.
