Chapter 1995
"That's true." Aaron nodded and sighed, "Now that he's lost his memories, these will probably be the greatest days of his life."
At the very mention of that, I realized that it wasn't a bad thing to live a life without any past memories.
But there were some things that just couldn't be ignored.
I changed the subject by saying, "I remember that six years ago, Nathan injected a virus into my body. Why do I still show no signs of being poisoned after six years?"
This was one of the reasons why I kept feigning amnesia.
I don't know how long I had to live, so I didn't dare return to the Reid family, and I didn't dare to come out to my children. I was happy to regain what I had lost, but the pain of losing everything again wasn't something I could bear.
Compared to the short happiness of being reunited, I was more afraid of bringing unbearable regret to my children and family. It was better for me to first pretend to be alone and then figure out all of the changes from the past six years.
When it came to that, Aaron instantly sat up straight and turned solemn, saying, "I haven't given up in all these years. At first, I didn't have a clue. But now that you're alive, everything can be connected. We couldn't understand at first. Since Nathan wanted to kill you, he could've directly injected you with a poison with no known antidote. The toxins would take effect at once, but he didn't. Instead, he chose a drug that countless people are researching. I suspect that his purpose isn't to make you disappear, but..."
"He wants to control me, right?" Aaron and I came to the same conclusion.
Nathan had forecasted Hendrix's strength and wanted to limit his potential by controlling me, which sounded reasonable.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
But after so many years, Nathan had hypnotized Hendrix and turned him into his puppet. He could have removed me, the unstable factor. Why did he let me be?
"Yes." Aaron nodded before he continued, "I found it strange when Freya told me that you were together with Irvin. I sent someone to investigate his whereabouts six years ago, only to find that the place they found you wasn't where the accident occurred. Someone else who had saved you and then informed Irvin. To avoid the search efforts of the Reid, Moore and Marshall families, Irvin transferred you back to Ucrebury the night we arrived at Mesville. It was a very detailed plan."
That was true. There was no way Irvin would have been able to find me before the Marshall family.
Unless he had made a deal with someone from the Marshall family.
So who was the one opposing Nathan, allowing me to live?
Jennifer? No, she wanted nothing more than for Arianna to disappear from the face of the earth so that no one would oppose her in gaining Hendrix's favor.
Suanne? She abandoned a child who might have had insomnia for more than twenty years. All of a sudden she found her conscience, and for the sake of her son's happiness, she tried to save me under Nathan's nose? It wasn't likely. If she had the intention to do so, she could have stopped them when the Marshall family snatched Wynn away, but she didn't.
There was only one possibility left.
Aaron looked at me and understood what I meant. With his eyes slightly squinted, he whispered, "Jordan?"
I nodded my head solemnly.
Yes, it was Jordan. The man that I couldn't see through at first. The man who made me feel uncomfortable from head to toe.
In the Marshall family, there was no
brotherly love among them. If
Hendrix hadn't found the Marshall family, Jordan would be their only heir. Hendrix not only returned to his ancestral roots, but also became the head of the Marshall family replacing Jordan.
If anyone else was in this situation, they would have long been blinded by jealousy.
But Jordan didn't take any action. Instead, he went into hiding, a hunter who hid in the dark, waiting to take advantage of his prey.
