Chapter 435 They shared a bed for years, being honest with each other and deeply connected. There was no way she would mistake someone else for her man.
If she had doubts earlier because the distance on the second floor made it hard to see clearly, those doubts vanished completely when she came to the first floor and observed his features up close.
She was sure that this was her husband, Norman.
âSpeak up,â she said. âWhy did you lie to me? Norman, do you know how Iâve been through life all these years? Not only do I have to face your death, but I also have to take care of our child who is wrapped in swaddling blankets Youâre clearly still alive.
Why didnât you come back to look for me? Donât you feel sorry for me at all? Even if you donât love me anymore, what about Britney? Sheâs your flesh and blood. How can you bear to abandon her?â
Toward the last part of her remark, she was practically shouting.
Cody frowned.
He thought, Iâm certain I donât know this woman. As for the claim about flesh and blood, thatâs even more absurd.
Iâve indeed become a father, and I have a daughter, but she is delivered by my wife!
âMaâam, you might have mistaken someone else for me,â Cody said. âIâm sorry. My name is not Normie, and Iâm not your old friend. Please move aside.â
When Harriet heard this, she became even more worked up.
She stared into his eyes intently, trying to catch the past affection in those dark eyes.
She thought, âThereâs no way I could have mistaken someone else for him. His appearance and vibe are exactly like Normanâs.
Apart from the difference in clothing style, every part of him exudes a profound sense of familiarity. He must be Norman. I trust my intuition. Yet, to my disappointment, his eyes show only indifference and a sense of distance. Recalling the bits and pieces of the past, when has my Norman ever treated me so coldly?â
âDid you lose your memory?â she asked.
Other than this explanation, she could not come up with other reasons to convince herself.
âThereâs no way the man who loved me so deeply in the past would completely forget about me, she thought.
Facing her endless questioning, a trace of impatience flashed across Codyâs eyes.
He lowered his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist. He then looked up at Jason and said, âMr. Wilson, since you have personal matters to deal with, letâs talk another day.â

With that said, he immediately ignored the desolate and sorrowful face in front of him, turning around to walk out.
There was no way Harriet would let him go.
After rushing forward to block his path, she said with teary eyes, âAnswer me. Did you lose your memory?â
Cody said nothing. He raised his head and glanced at the door.
The next moment, two bodyguards in black attire rushed over. One on the left and one on the right, each grabbed Harrietâs arms, dragging her to the side.
Not even sparing her a glance, Cody walked away again toward the outside.
Looking at his back which had a sense of coldness and firm determination, Harriet shouted at the top of her lungs, âNorman, your daughterâs life hangs in the balance now. If you donât properly investigate what happened five years ago, you will regret it someday. You will regret it.â
Codyâs footsteps seemed to have paused for a moment, but his departing figure remained resolute.
After watching him get into the car, the two bodyguards apologized to Harriet and let her go.
After regaining her freedom, Harriet rushed forward again. But after running for a few feet, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
She abruptly stopped in her tracks and took out her phone. It was a call from Britneyâs topâtier caregiver.
Not daring to hold things up, she quickly swiped the answer button.
âSarah, whatâs wrong?â
âMs. Murray, hurry up and come to the hospital,â Sarah said. âThe specialist said your daughterâs condition has worsened.â
Harriet staggered two steps backward, her face showing signs of panic.
âI, Iâll be right there,â she said. âIâll be right there.â
Noticing that Harrietâs state of mind was off, Sophia hurriedly pushed away the man who was supporting her and walked briskly up to Harriet.
âWhatâs wrong, Harriet?â she asked.
When Harriet saw her, she looked as if she had grabbed onto a lifeline. âSophia, please contact the miracle doctor,â she said.
âBritney is in critical condition.â
12:57 Mon, 15 Jul Chapter 435 Sophia immediately grabbed her wrist and pulled her to stride outside.
Harriet was forced to follow. Not forgetting to remind her, she said, âHurry up and contact the miracle do you delay any longer, it will be too late.â
Sophia glanced at her and enunciated each word as she said, âI am Linda.â
