CHAPTER 741: CHAPTER 741: A NEW APPROACH

"Francis, go check all the hospitals in Melbourne. Don’t rely on names, be sure to match the face."

After spending several days in Melbourne, there was finally a bit of progress. The gloom that had clouded Nora Northwood for days was dispelled at that moment.

Little did she know, an even larger fog awaited her ahead.

After days and nights of investigation by Francis, he finally spotted the figure of Peach Bell at a certain hospital.

This hospital was close to the coast, and you could hear the sound of waves from the ward.

However, the strong smell of disinfectant quelled any urge to appreciate the sea.

On the hospital bed was a handsome face.

Even in a comatose state, it was hard to conceal Jasper Sinclair’s nobility and aloofness.

A minute ago, Nora learned from the chief physician that his brain had suffered damage, and he had lost his memory.

She didn’t believe that Jasper Sinclair would have amnesia.

"Creak—"

The door to the ward was pushed open from outside, footsteps sounded behind her. Thinking it was Francis who entered, Nora directly asked, "Have you found Peach Bell’s whereabouts?"

"It seems you really want to find me."

A clear voice sounded from behind, and Nora froze for a moment, then turned around.

A plain, pale face came into view.

If it wasn’t Peach Bell, who else could it be?

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

Peach Bell’s gaze lingered on Jasper’s face for a brief second, then she turned her head, saying, "Brother is still sleeping. Let’s talk outside."

"Alright."

Nora followed her to the corridor outside the ward.

The moment the door was tightly shut again, the person on the bed opened his eyes.

The man’s eyes were exceptionally vacant, and in his mind, apart from the image of Peach Bell, there was nothing.

Jasper Sinclair had woken from his coma half a month ago.

In the half-month since, the only people he had contact with were Peach Bell and the medical staff.

Peach Bell said they grew up together as childhood sweethearts.

Peach Bell also said that he had the accident and fell into a coma to save her, which led to his memory loss.

...

Peach Bell’s care for Jasper Sinclair was meticulous, and so he often believed they were lifelong friends from childhood.

He couldn’t recall a thing about Nora, who had suddenly appeared.

In the corridor.

Peach Bell’s first words were to tell Nora to leave, "Brother Jasper has lost his past memories, and in the half-month we’ve been together, he’s been doing well too. Please let us be."

Nora was shocked at the young girl’s audacity. Had she mastered such a level of shamelessness in such a short time?

She was so angry she laughed, her mouth full of mockery, "Whether he has amnesia or not, he is my husband. You’re taking advantage of his amnesia to interfere in his marriage. Don’t you find that shameful?"

"I just want to be with the person I love..." At this point, Peach Bell paused, then continued with a softer tone, "If it weren’t for Grandma Sinclair threatening with her life, Brother Jasper wouldn’t have been forced to marry you. He has been controlled by you all for so long, I beg you to let him go."

At the end, she even managed to squeeze out two tears with a solemn pretense.

"How did I not notice before that your mouth is so powerful!"

"Miss Northwood, I used to be afraid of losing Brother Jasper, so I endured everything quietly. I never told anyone about how you bullied me, but now I want to fight for myself. I truly love Brother Jasper."

"Your love is worth only these few tears." Nora gritted her teeth, enunciating each word slowly, her every syllable filled with her anger.
