Chapter 445 Guilt
Chapter 445 Guilt
She knew that it was useless just to lose her own memory, and that Benjamin would only be compelled
to move out if she had lost in her hands what he cared most about.
What Benjamin cared most about was, on the one hand, the medical skills she had and, on the other,
the legacy of her grandmother and grandfather.
And it was only after she lost her memory of her medical skills that Benjamin would be more anxious
than anyone else and would try to help her recover this hard-won memory at the first opportunity.
So she had to play dumb, she had to convince everyone that she really had misplaced her memory, or
even lost some of her memory to do so.
With this in mind, she could only hold back the guilt in her heart and continue to pretend to sleep for the
time being.
Not long after, Levi pushed the door and walked in.
"Daddy," said the little girl with a bitter face as soon as she saw him, expectantly, "why isn't mummy
awake yet? I'm so worried ......"
Levi's thin lips pursed as he walked over to her and gently stroked the top of her head, soothing her in
a warm voice, "Don't worry, mum will definitely wake up."
The little girl sniffed, her big eyes watering as she looked at him and could only trust him as she
nodded gently.
After another quarter of an hour, Ruby woke up at a leisurely pace.
She stared at the ceiling of the ward for a moment, before turning her head towards the bed.
At this moment, Olivia had fallen asleep on the edge of the bed, and as for Levi, he walked out with his
mobile phone and stood in the corridor to call Chester, instructing him to go abroad to investigate.
When he entered the door, he saw that Ruby had woken up and hurried up to her.
"How are you?"
Facing his worried eyes, the guilt in Ruby's heart increased, but for the sake of the greater good, she
endured it.
"I'm fine." She shook her head, then glanced around the ward and asked in a pretentious manner,
"Where am I?"
Levi's expression froze, his voice tightening as he asked, "You don't remember?"
Ruby tilted her head, "What should I remember?"
After confirming that she really couldn't remember being sent here for a check-up, Levi’s heart sank,
and only after a moment did he speak: "I brought you here for a check-up."
"Doing a check-up?" Ruby raised her hand and rubbed the corner of her forehead, "Am I sick? Why do
I need to have a check-up? I feel a bit dizzy ......"
Hearing her say this, Levi was instantly nervous and without saying a word, he rang the nurse's bell
and asked the nurse to invite Dr. Moore to come.
Soon, Dr. Moore came over in a hurry, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Levi got up, made some room, and explained, "Ruby said her head was dizzy." NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
At this point, he paused and gave Dr. Moore a complicated look.
"Also, she doesn't remember anything from before she was brought to the hospital and isn't sure why
she's here."
Hearing this, Dr. Moore's face changed, and after a careful examination, he sighed.
"It's nothing serious, she looks normal, probably another attack on her brain cells. There's nothing I can
do at the moment but prescribe medicine to stabilize her condition, hopefully she can hold on for a
while and not deteriorate any further."
At these words, Levi nodded: "I have already sent someone abroad to investigate, I hope to get the
results as soon as possible, in the meantime, I'm counting on you, Dr. Moore."
Dr. Moore first nodded, then waved his hand, "There is no need to be so polite, Ruby is also someone
from my lab, I have benefited a lot from working with her for such a long time, naturally I don't want a
genius like her to fall away just like that. I will do my best to stabilize her, we each do our own job. I
hope Ruby gets better."
As the two men spoke, Layton walked in and placed a few lunch boxes on the small coffee table.
"Mr. Levi, you and Olivia haven't eaten much in the past two days, and now that Ruby is awake, you
should eat some. If you keep tossing and turning like this, even an iron man won't be able to carry on,
not to mention that Olivia is so small."
That was a good point, even if Levi had no appetite, he had to protect himself for the sake of Olivia and
Ruby.
"What about you? Aren't you staying here to eat?" Levi brought the meal to the table and asked when
he saw Layton was about to leave.
Layton shook his head, "No, Benjamin has asked me out, I'll go over there."
When they heard Benjamin's name, both Levi and Ruby changed their faces.
But no one noticed that Ruby's eyes flashed with a brilliant glint.
Levi remembered how crazy this guy was before, so he immediately wrinkled his eyebrows, "What did
he want with you?"
Layton did not know the grudge between Benjamin and them, and shrugged his shoulders with an
indifferent expression, "I don't know, most likely he asked me out for a drink when he was bored, it's no
fun without Raphael being away lately."
When it came to Raphael, he could not help but feel headache.
However, Levi was not concerned about this at all at the moment, instead he was worried and his
expression became wary.
"Did Benjamin say anything to you?" He asked.
Layton froze, unsure, "Say what? Is he supposed to say anything to me?"
As soon as he looked at him like this, Levi knew that he still didn't know anything and was completely in
the dark.
At that moment, he hesitated for an instant before trying to tell the story of how he and Ruby were
almost besieged earlier.
However, as he was just about to speak, Ruby interjected.
"Benjamin? Go on then, and don't forget to tell Benjamin that I'm still thinking about the mutton-fat jade
he's holding! Whenever he's willing to part with it, be the first to leave it to me!"
At these words, both Layton and Levi were stunned.
Levi didn't understand: "Mutton-fat jade? What mutton-fat jade?"
Layton, however, instantly recalled the old days and looked despondent.
“It was a long time ago. Benjamin has a high quality mutton-fat jade, and doesn’t want to give it to
others. Ruby had talked to him about this for a long time. Benjamin agreed to Ruby with everything, but
because of the fact that the origin of the jade is unknown, so he did not give it to her. He might have his
reason."
With that, he sighed, "But it's been a long time since this incident happened, Ruby now suddenly say
this ......"
He stopped and his eyes went towards Levi, whose face immediately sank.
Both of them realized that Ruby's memory had created another mistake.
And being so interrupted by her, Levi had already forgotten what he wanted to say, and after Layton
said goodbye to the two, he went straight to the clubhouse to meet Benjamin.
