Chapter 434
The next day, early morning.
Yumi arrived at Hackett's place with a new phone. Yumi took out a new phone and knocked on the door. "Hackett, it's me."
After a few minutes, the door slowly opened, Hackett was wrapped in a sleeping robe. His long arm stretched out of the room. "Give me your phone. I'm not eating breakfast. Don't wait for tnc."
Before Yumi could speak, Hackett took her phone away and closed the door, leaving her alone.
She expressed puzzlement regarding Hackett's behavior, who experienced amnesia. Despite the memory loss, he was cold toward her. This realization may be surprising and raises questions about the possible reasons behind his distant demeanor despite not having any memory of their past interactions. Despite the memory loss, she was trying to comprehend this ongoing coldness in Hackett's behavior.
In the room.
After Hackett took his phone, he first opened his contact list. There were many contacts, but he could not remember any of
them.
Valeria and Tyler's phone numbers were already blocked, making them inaccessible from the contact list.
Hackett held his phone but did not know who to call. He wanted to go out and familiarize himself with his previous living environment. However, Yumi, who claimed to be his girlfriend, tried her best to stop him. It made him feel a little strange.
He felt that Yumi seemed very afraid of him coming into contact with his previous living environment. He couldn't explain why.
Hackett looked back and forth at the people on the contact list. He did not want to make a call, and laid on the bed to sleep.
SO
he threw his phone aside
Although his body had almost recovered, the car accident had seriously injured him. If he overused his brain, he would have a headache.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
The man suddenly opened his eyes and stood up to pick up his phone. An unfamiliar number was displayed.
Hackett looked at the unfamiliar number and hesitated for a while. Then he picked up the call. It was a woman's voice. "Hackett, what's wrong with you? Why did you block my number? Even if you're my brother-in-law, blocking me is unnecessary." Hackett's suspicions grew as the woman on the phone had referred to him as brother-in-law, a term he couldn't ignore. He decided to investigate further.
There was a lot of information in this phone call. He asked, "Who are you?"
"Is everything okay? Do you think I'd willingly call you? It's just that I haven't been able to reach my sister lately. Our parents are concerned, so they asked me to call and find out what's happening with you all. It's as if you've vanished. How is my sister? Where's Alex? Our parents miss Alex."
Suddenly, Yumi knocked on the door again. "Hackett, open the door. I have something significant to tell you."
Hackett hung up and looked back at the door impatiently.
Due to her persistent actions, Hackett, increasingly frustrated with Yumi's demanding behavior, found it challenging to navigate the situation.
He walked over and opened the door. Yumi revealed a smile that she had prepared in advance. "Hackett, lend me your phone again. I forgot to set something up for you just now."
"What is it?" Hackett frowned.
"That's it."
Yumi snatched the phone back from Hackett and turned on the settings. She set something up and turned on the contact list. She naturally turned around and sat on the sofa at the side. She deleted Clayton's phone number from the contact list. She just remembered that she forgot Clayton's phone number. Clayton were to call Hackett, it could reveal essential information.
"Alright, I'm just helping you set up the Internet."
Hackett took the phone and said lightly, "I can set it myself. You don't have to worry so much."
Yumi touched her head and smiled. "I'm always used to taking care of you."
Hackett suddenly thought of the woman who addressed him as brother-in-law on the phone.
He pondered whether the woman on the phone might be Yumi's sister.
"Do you have a sister?"
Yumi was stunned and shook her head. "No, I only have one brother. Why?"
"Nothing. Your sister would be quite blissful if you had one."
This was
test, but Yumi, in love, couldn't help but fall for the man's praise. She revealed a sweet smile. "I've always wanted an older sister or younger sister, but I didn't." Hackett replied, "Yes, my head hurts a little. I want to sleep a little longer. Wake me up when it's time for lunch."
"Alright, Hackett, you have to rest more. It's a little risky to be discharged so early."
Yumi did not disturb him and turned to leave the room.
Hackett's handsome face instantly darkened when he closed the door. Yumi had no sister, yet the woman on the phone called him brother-in-law.
He was determined to learn more.
Outside the James Manor.
The Clayton couple and Elsie's family visited the manor to see Valeria and the child. They could not reach Valeria recently or contact Hackett.
The disappearance of this family with three was so abrupt and unexplained that it left Clayton with concerns and the initial thought that something sinister might have happened to them, like a kidnapping. "What's going on? I can't contact Valeria, but you, as Ernest, can't contact Hackett? What about Tyler? He's gone, too." Clayton was a little angry and scolded Ernest.
Ernest had an innocent look on his face. He could not tell Clayton about the car accident, and he could not say to Clayton about the strange details he had sensed. He could only endure it silently.

"I can't reach Tyler either
This was true. It had been long since Ernest contacted Tyler in person.
Elsie also said to his father, puzzled, "It's extraordinary. When I called Hackett just now, he didn't know us. It's too strange. What tricks is he playing? Where did he take his sister and child
Many things had happened in the manor, but Ernest could not say anything. This was Tyler's instructions before he left.
The Lawrence Manor.
He didn't know how Elizabeth had complained to Simon's father but he was so angry that he had rushed over from Eyzland overnight.
In the study, his father scolded Simon for having an illegitimate child. His things were all over the floor.
Simon did not defend himself from beginning to end. Instead his father to insult him.
he allowed
"I can't believe you did such a thing. I can't believe you, you piece of trash. You have an illegitimate child outside. Why are you still keeping that woman at home? How do you expect me to answer to Elizabeth? How long do you plan to keep that woman?" Simon coughed. "I plan to let her go soon. I won't let her go because the child hasn't adapted to life without her mother."
His father was tired after scolding him. He sighed deeply and sat on the chair. "At this point, it's too late to say anything. The child belongs to our Lawrence family, so we must keep her. However, we can't keep that woman. It will affect your relationship with Elizabeth." Simon expressed a lack of emotional connection towards his fiancée.
The tone was dismissive and somewhat cynical, implying that Simon found having genuine feelings for his fiancée laughable.
Simon felt no emotion between him and his fiancée. A strong bond was absent in their relationship.
