Chapter 737 We Have A Lifetime To Create New Memories
Immediately Branson was done talking, Maurice stopped.
Branson thought his threat had done the trick.
"The Moran family is in trouble.The theme park project has stalled and stock prices are plummeting.If you mess with the White family, the Moran Group will suffer.Don't you care about that?"
Maurice's expression turned grave.He turned around to face Branson.
"I don't want Eliana to be caught between the dilemma with me and the White family.However, if you and your people want a fight, I won't back down," he said firmly before leaving.
Eliana had listened to their conversation.She was now leaning against Maurice's warm chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.She felt an overwhelming sense of relief.
Maurice brought her to the bedroom and immediately called the doctor to check her.
Maurice was so worried.
"Doctor, Eliana has been complaining of a headache.Should we be worried about anything?" He asked the doctor when he arrived.
After the examination, the doctor reviewed Eliana's medical records and furrowed his brow.
"Miss Pierce, you've suffered serious brain damage resulting in amnesia.It's best not to force yourself to remember things as it will only cause you more pain." Maurice's eyes dimmed as the doctor spoke.
Eliana felt a bit helpless.
"Doctor, are there other quick ways to get back my memory?" she asked the doctor, hoping for a positive answer.
Maurice immediately opposed Eliana.
"It's not necessary for you to remember the past." Eliana was perplexed.
"Why? Is there something you don't want me to recollect?"
"No."
Maurice squatted down and held her hand, looking at her with patience and tenderness.
"I will tell you all you want to know, Eliana.I swore to never lie to you.Those vows are still valid even if you don't remember them."
Eliana was startled.
"I can't just allow myself to lose my memory.Those are a part of me.Don't you want me to remember what took place between us?"
Maurice shook his head and stared at Eliana affectionately.
"It doesn't matter if you can't remember.We still have a lifetime to create new memories together."
Eliana was moved by his words.She had a feeling that the man in her memory was different from the man he was now, and Maurice must have changed a lot for her.But she was still troubled by what Branson had said earlier.
"What about the White family?"
Maurice stroked her face and assured her, "Don't worry.I will take care of everything."
In the evening, Eliana and Maurice ate with their kids.
While they ate, Silas spoke up hesitantly.
"Aun...Eliana, is everything okay?"
Maurice had told him that Eliana had lost her memory, which meant that she didn't remember him anymore.So, he felt too awkward to address her as ‘aunt’.
Silas was visibly nervous which made Eliana feel sorry for him.She thought he was a cute boy and liked him a lot.
"You are Silas, right? You are Maurice's nephew.If you want, you can call me ‘aunt’."
Silas’s face lit up immediately and he called her in the cutest voice.
"Aunt!"
Eliana responded with a smile, "Yes!"
Later, after they ate, the three kids took turns to shower and then went to bed obediently.
Eliana looked at the children as they slept soundly in the dim light of the small night lamp.She felt a happiness that she hadn't experienced in a long time.She stood quietly by their bedside until Maurice came over and called out to her, "Let's go."
Eliana was drawn back to the present.She gently tucked the children in before heading back to the room with Maurice.
Maurice held Eliana tightly on the bed and said softly, "you must be tired.Go to sleep now."
He was feeling sleepy himself and his eyes were slowly closing.But Eliana couldn't fall asleep.She tossed and turned in his arms, feeling like something was missing.
Maurice noticed that she was restless.He was troubled and asked her nervously, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"
"Did I wake you up?" Eliana blushed in the dark.
Maurice assumed that Eliana couldn't sleep with him next to her, so he kissed her on the forehead and got up from the bed.
"Go to sleep. I'll sleep in the study."
However, before Maurice took a step, Eliana tightly grabbed him by his clothes.
