away from Alex and looked to the other side of the hospital bed. Seeing Joanna, Ellie was surprised. "Mom, how did you

Elle turned her attention away f get here! Where Dad?"

Ellie's words were like thunder crashing over everyone's heads. They exchanged glances, and their expressions changed dramatically.

Duna was shocked "Ellie, don't scare me like that Are you okay

Ellie looked at Diana and asked in confusion, Sorry, who are you?"

to get the doctor

"I'm Diana, your best friend. How can you not recognize me? Dians replied. She was almost in tears. "Im going to get

After the initial shock, Aaron quickly left the room.

"Ellie, tell me if anything else is wrong. Does your head hurt?" Alex held Ellie's hand tightly, his voice noticeably shaking

Ellie glanced back, seeing Alex holding her hand in front of everyone, she quickly pulled it back. "Alex, why are you here too"

Ellie said. "I was supposed to be interning at the hospital today, so how come I'm lying here?"

Alex thought, Internship! Isn't this from over two years ago when Ellie just got back to Jaslands?

Alex felt like his heart was going to leap out of his chest. Even when the medical staff came in to check on Ellie, Alex couldn't calm d down

The doctor asked Ellie, Think hard, were you working or resting at home yesterday?"

Ellie closed her eyes, listening to the doctor's words, struggling to remember despite the splitting headache.

The doctor asked, "Do you remember what you had for dinner last night?"

Ellie replied. "Last night, I was packing up in my apartment, getting ready for today's hospital internship. I was too busy and didn't eat, then just went to sleep

The doctor asked. "Think carefully. Did you meet anyone or did anything happen before you went to

to sleep!"

The more Ellie tried to remember, the worse her head hurt. In the end, she just held her head in her hands and started to cry

cry on the hospital bed. "That's enough!" Alex interrupted the doctor sternly. He knelt by the bed, holding Ellie tightly. "Ellie!" As he felt her body go limp. Alex realized that she had fainted once more.

Over an hour later, the team of specialists returned with their diagnosis: Ellie suffered from traumatic memory loss due to the psychological shock of falling into the water. This stress response the body triggers is a natural defense mechanism against such extreme trauma. Aaron asked. "If she has memory loss, why she still remembers her family!

The doctor explained, "The memories Ellie has lost are likely related to the traumatic events she went through. Generally, in cases like this, her memories of other things should remain normal." Alex asked, "How long will it take for her to regain her memory?"

The doctor replied, "Ellie's memory loss is usually temporary. Recovery might be as fast as a few weeks or as long as one to three months, and in Matur cases, it could be six months or even longer The doctor said, "Usually, with help from a professional therapist, she should gradually start to remember soon.

Once the doctor left, silence settled over everyone, Ellie's memories were stuck two years ago when she returned to jaslands to start her internship. She couldn't remember anything that happened after that Alex's breathing was already uneven. He stood by Ellie's bedside, his eyes red as he stared at her without moving. Over two years ago, Ellie liked

him a lot

9:14 AM c ch

Ellie remained unconscious the whole day. By the evening, Alex's parents rushed back to Ellie's hospital room after taking care of Carlos's discharge.

In the hospital's visiting area, the elders from the Warren and Thompson families sat face-to-face once again. Alex and Aaron stood at the end of Ellie's hospital bed.

Seeing that

her set of parents were speaking, Alex was the first to express his thoughts. "Ellie has amnesia now. I'll find the best doctors to help her, and I want to bring her back to the Warren family!

As soon as Alex spoke. Nancy nervously clutched her rapidly beating heart. Todd kept his head down, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"Mr. Warren, I advise you to be kind?" Aaron couldn't hold back any longer. Nancy lowered her head even more, thinking about how Alex had everything except a good conscience.

Alex met Aaron's gaze, opened his mouth a little, and then looked towards his parents. Seeing his parents avoiding eye contact, he glanced back at the Thompson family.

Noticing the increasingly grim looks on the Thompson family's faces, Alex cleared his throat. He paused and said softly, "I admit I was a jerk before, and I'll never be able to repay Ellie and the Thompson family for what I owe you."

Alex said. "Ellie has amnesia and forgotten all those bad things. We've been together for over ten years, and she still feels for me like before. If she stays like this for years or even her whole life, will you stop me from getting close to her?"

Aaron said seriously, "Mr. Warren, Ellie only has traumatic amnesia. She'll get better soon. Your thinking right now is not only deceiving her but also yourself.

"Even if that's true, you can't stop me?" Alex said, a mischievous look in his eyes. "Even if Ellie has amnesia now, she's still an independent person. Like you said, none of you have the right to make decisions for her!"

Alex urged, "Let her decide for herself this time. If she wants to be with me, I promise to treat her right. I'm pleading with you. Don't stop me anymore. Even if she later regains her memory, I'll accept all the consequences.

The room went silent. Nancy sneaked a look at the Thompson family and then lowered her head again. There were indeed some things that elders found hard to say. However, Aaron was too proper in his way of dealing with things, and yet Alex was ridiculously shameless. If Aaron wasn't so proper, Alex would truly be taught a lesson.

"What

are you all talking about?" Ellie woke up again, trying to sit up despite the intense headache.

in the next moment, Alex dashed to Ellie's bedside like a sprinter. He carefully helped Ellie sit up and then naturally took a seat next to her.

Joanna approached to help Ellie, but Alex protectively held Ellie in front of him and said, "Mrs. Thompson, I've got her." Joanna just stood there speechless.

Ellie was sweating a bit from her severe headache. She forced herself to push Alex away and held joanna's hand. Alex hesitated for a moment but then stepped aside.

Ellie said, "Mom, you're here! Where's Dad? As soon as Ellie spoke, everyone froze. Joanna's lips trembled as tears welled up in her eyes. Noticing the strange expressions on everyone's faces, Ellie nervously asked again, "Aaron, is Dad unable to walk well? Is that why he didn't come?" Aaron's face showed intense emotion, but he held back from speaking. Instead, he looked at Alex and asked, "Mr. Warren, don't you plan to expline"
