James just wanted to sound her out by saying that, but he didn't expect Gloria to ask him if it was true.
As an adult with basic common sense, he suspected that Gloria may have lost her memory!
The relaxed expression on James's face disappeared, and his expression had become very solemn, "Doctor, please give her a comprehensive examination." Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
The doctors in the ward who just saw Gloria's reaction also put on a serious expression.
The doctor quickly performed a full-body examination on Gloria, and then called James to the office.
"Mr. Moore, your fiancée, Miss Taylor, has no other problems now except for her physical weakness, but due to the severe brain damage in that accident, she has lost her memory..."
James listened to the doctor in silence, and then returned to the ward after thanking him.
Gloria was sitting on the bed and holding the remote control to switch the TV. The nurse next to her who changed the fresh dressing for her was whispering that she was envious that she had a fiancé who would never give up on her.
The nurse changed the fresh dressing for Gloria, turned around and saw James standing by the door. She blushed and called, "Mr. Moore."
Mr. Moore was not only handsome, good-tempered, but also so single-minded. If it wasn't for the fact that everyone was touched by his "love" for Gloria, some of the nurses would have chased after him a long time ago.
After the nurse went out, James walked to the bed and sat down and looked at Gloria quietly.
After lying on the hospital bed for three years, Gloria was so skinny. Her face was sickly, and was so pale that there was no redness of the skin at all.
Gloria responded slowly. Noticing that James was looking at her, she turned her head slowly and looked at him.
She looked at James as if she was looking at a stranger.
Gloria asked him cautiously, "They said your name is James?"
The nurse told her just now that she had been lying in the hospital bed for three years, and the man named James in front of her had been guarding her and never gave up on her.
And James said that he was her fiancé.
But she had no memory of it at all.
She couldn't even recall her own name, not to mention she couldn't remember if she had a fiancé named James or not.
She had lost all her memories and past.
Her mind was blank, so blank that it scared her.
"Yes." James replied silently. He stared at her with a measuring gaze, pondering something.
Gloria unconsciously wrung the sheet with the fingers that placed at her side, "They also said that you are my... fiancé..."
James nodded, "Yes."
After a few seconds, Gloria shook her head in confusion, and subconsciously retorted, "No."
If James was really her fiancé, why didn't she have intimate feelings towards him in her heart?
Love may be lost together due to amnesia, but how could there be no intimate feelings at all?
After all, they should be on intimate terms with each other.
A curious look flashed across James' eyes, "You think I'm lying to you?"
"You..." Gloria remembered what the nurse said, and shook her head quickly. Then she hesitatingly said in a low voice, "No. We probably... didn't love each other that much before... Otherwise, I..."
Since James was able to guard her for three years when she was a vegetative, he was a person who had affection and faith anyway, and she believed he did not lie to her.
She didn't have any intimate feelings for him, maybe because the relationship between them was not particularly good.
"You are right. We didn't have a good relationship before, but that's all gone. We can meet again and start over." James stretched out his hand to her with a smile, "Hello, I'm James Moore."
His smile was too sincere and contagious. Gloria completely believed him at this moment, "Hello, I am..."
James reminded her, "Gloria Taylor."
"Hello, I am Gloria Taylor." Gloria completed the rest of her words, and her smiling eyes seemed to be filled with bright stars.
James held her skinny hands and was lost in thought for a moment.
Obviously, she was so thin and frail that she was not even close to being "pretty". She was even horribly thin. But at this moment, she was especially pleasing to the eye.
...
Gloria stayed in the hospital for half a month and was able to eat some food normally before being taken out of the hospital by James.
It was September.
The weather in early autumn had become much cooler.
Gloria wore a gray sweater with a white shirt underneath, and her long hair draped softly over her shoulders, which made her look soft and gentle.
She sat in the passenger's seat, and there was a breeze coming in through the open window. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
The familiar breath in the air made Gloria very happy.
With a smile on her face, she turned her head and said to James, "James, I must have grown up in this city. I think the air here is very familiar."
"Is it?" James turned his head. His eyes stayed on her face for two seconds before moving away.
At this moment, the car was just about to pass an intersection.
James braked and waited for the traffic light.
Gloria continued looking out of the window.
Next to them, there was a black car that looked very high-end, and its rear window was also rolled down at this time.
The little girl's childish voice came, "...Clarke... I'm going to break off relations with you! Humph..."
Perhaps because of the girl's young age, Gloria could not hear clearly what she said when she spoke quickly.
Gloria looked up and saw a three or four-year-old girl leaning on the car window with a balloon in her hand. She was trying her best to climb out of the car window.
The little girl's dark hair looked very supple, the bangs on her forehead stuck on her forehead, and her eyes were black and big, and her pouting look was very cute, which was very lovable.
Seeing her about to climb out of the car, Gloria was nervous.
At this time, a pair of beautiful big hands stretched out from behind the little girl, clasped her waist, and easily pulled her down.
The little girl suddenly stretched out her fair hand and pointed to Gloria, "Pretty sister..."
The man holding her raised his eyes and glanced in Gloria's direction, "Tina, your taste makes me wonder if you are my biological daughter."
It was an extremely handsome man with perfect facial contours, especially his dark eyes, deep and stern. Just a glance of him would make people shudder.
Gloria shuddered unconsciously, and looked away at once.
However, her heart shrank sharply at this moment.
She reached out her hand to cover her chest, and her face turned pale.
The green light came on, James started the car and noticed that Gloria looked a bit odd, "What's wrong?"
Gloria shook her head, "Nothing."
