Chapter 239 Who Am I?
Bill led people to search for three days at the bottom of the cliff. The whole mountain forest was searched, but they found nothing except for a few pieces of clothing.
When the news was sent back home, Cynthia sat on the sofa with the child in her arms and listened to it silently. After a long time, she said tiredly, âLet them all come back. Donât look for him anymore!â
âMrs. Smith!â Greg frowned.
Cynthia waved her hand to stop him from saying. She knew he died or got rescued. There would be no other way.
Since they couldnât find the body, he must have been rescued.
âSend people to secretly search for Alston all over the country. Donât send out the news. Otherwise, Smith Group will be panicked and the enemy will take advantage of it.â
Greg nodded. Indeed, the top priority was to block the news. Although Alstonâs disappearance would be known sooner or later, it was better to pretend to be normal.
âI will resign from the hospital, and please will send me the companyâs files and documents, as well as the customersâ
information.â
Greg was startled, âYou?â
Cynthia hugged Desmond. Her delicate and beautiful face was full of determination, âI will help Alston run the company. Please go back to the company and help me!â
Greg used to be Alstonâs fatherâs assistant and later assisted Alston. No one knew the company better than him. With his help, she would be able to keep the company.
Fearing that he would not agree, Cynthia added, âDonât worry. I will quit the position when Alston comes back!â
Greg hurriedly said, âNo, I donât worry about it. You may not know that Alston made a statement that if something happens to him, the Smith Group and all the properties under his name will be yours.â
Cynthia was surprised. She tightly hugged Desmond in her arms to suppress the sadness.
She thought that Alston loved her enough, but she didnât expect him to love her more than she imagined.
Her eyes were moist, and she buried her face in Desmondâs back.
âAlston, you must come back soon. If you delay for too long, I will take our babies to marry another man, let them call him dad.â
In a small house, a pretty girl stared at the unconscious man on the bed.
Growing up in this small village, she had never seen such a stern and handsome man. Although he was in a and coma, he still carried an aura of indifference and repulsion. He was attractive.
âGigi, is he still unconscious?â A middleâaged man walked in.
Gigi called, âDad!â
The man frowned and looked at the man on the bed. He said in a low voice, âShould we send him to the hospital?â
âNo!â Gigi immediately refused. She had a premonition that if she sent him to the hospital, she might never have the chance to see him again.
Although the branches scratched his clothes on the mountain, the exquisite fabrics were very valuable at first glance. He was not an ordinary person. If he could help them, their life would be turned upside down. Those who look down on them in the village could only look up to them.
Thinking of this, Gigi couldnât restrain her excitement..
âDad, I canât send him to the hospital. He couldnât protect himself now. If his enemies see us, how could we escape?â She looked embarrassed, âBesides, we canât afford the hospital.â
Her father fell silent, âYouâre right. Letâs keep him at home. He only has a serious gunshot wound on his arm, and the others are small scratches. The injuries on his head should have been caused by rolling down the mountain, and it is only swollen, so it should be fine.â
âYes.â Gigi nodded quickly. She sat back on the bed and looked at Alston obsessively.
Her father frowned, âDoes she fall in love with this man? Itâs not bad if he wakes up and marries her.â
âBesides, Iâm not in good health. Itâs good that Gigi can have someone to look after her.â
Just as he was about to go out, the man on the bed suddenly moved his eyelids and muttered in a low voice.
Gigi jumped up and shouted excitedly, âDad, heâs awake! Heâs awake!â
The middleâaged man hurried over and heard the man on the bed murmuring, âSis...â
Sissy? Sam? What was that? His name?
The man sat up from the bed.
âWhere am I?â Alston covered his head, and his face full of pain. He was more handsome when he was awake. His eyes were deep, with a sense of majesty.
The middleâaged man was a little afraid to speak.
Gigi licked her lips and said nervously, âThis is Yoland Village. We saved you from the cliff. Whatâs your name? Where are you from?â
âName? What is my name?â
Alston frowned, trying to recall his memory, but his brain hurt like being pricked by tens of thousands of needles.
âWho am I? Whatâs my name?â
He hugged his head and grunted a few times in pain. Gigi comforted him, âDonât think about it. Maybe you accidentally bumped your head, and maybe you will remember it later.â
Alston put down his hands. Looking at Gigi and her father, he said hoarsely, âThank you for saving me. I will repay you.â
As he spoke, he habitually touched his pocket and found nothing.
He took off the watch and handed it to Gigiâs father, âThis watch should be worth a lot of money. Take it.
Gigiâs father didnât know much about watches, but Gigi did. Glancing at the plate of the watch, her heartbeat almost stopped.
âPa... patek philippe?!â She cried out. She guessed right. He was rich! This watch must be worth at least a million dollars! They would be rich!
Alston frowned. He didnât like how this woman looked at him as if she was appraising him.
Gigi immediately put on a gentle and sweet smile. She took the watch from her father and placed it beside Alston.
âWe didnât save you for money. Now you canât remember your identity, and your injury will take a long time to heal. We have a spare room, and you can stay here.â
Although this watch was very tempting, Gigi wanted more. As long as she and her father took good care of him, when he remembered things, he would give them more, even...
Gigi shyly looked at the stern and extraordinary Alston. If she could marry this man, she would be happy for the rest of her life.
Gigiâs father knew what she was planning. He smiled, âYes, you can stay here at ease.â
Alston frowned and thought for a while, then agreed. His body was injured, and his mind went blank. He couldnât walk and didnât know where to go.
âOkay, thank you. I will trouble you during the time I am here.â
âItâs not troublesome at all.â Gigi smiled, and her heart beat fast.
âBy the way, you kept shouting the word âSamâ when you were unconscious. I think it might be your name. How about we call you it?â
Alston suddenly frowned, feeling a tightness in his chest. He seemed to have really forgotten something very important.
