Luca and Luke listened to Stan''s words and realized that he had indeed lost his memory.


    If Stan had not lost his memory when he woke up but simply felt confused, he should not have said


    such things.


    Luca had great confidence in her dry needling treatment.


    "Uncle Stan, this isn''t the mansion. It''s the hospital. Don''t you remember what happened?" Gerald was


    very anxious. He was even thinking of asking Stan about what happened in the mansion right away.


    However, Luke was still here, so he could not ask.


    Therefore, Gerald nned to first find out whether Luke had caused his uncle''s injury.


    "The hospital? How did I end up in the hospital?" Stan was visibly surprised. He also noticed that the


    surroundings were not those of the mansion. He tried to sit up but felt dizzy and ended up lying back


    down.


    "It''s..." Gerald initially wanted to use Luke of harming Stan, but with no evidence to support his


    im and especially with Luke ring at him, he dared not speak recklessly.


    Hence, he said, "You stumbled and passed out. Luke found you and took you to the hospital. Can you


    remember what happened? You''ve always been healthy. Why did you suddenly faint?"


    Luca rolled her eyes. Even though what she did to Stan was morally questionable, she actually saved


    his life this time.


    If Stan had not gotten a brain CT scan done in time, the blood vessel tumor in his brain would not have


    been discovered in time. Brain aneurysms were like time bombs. If left untreated, who knew when they


    might burst?


    "I... I don''t know..." Stan frowned, feeling pain all over his body. However, the worst was in his head.


    It felt like someone had forcibly stuffed cotton into his head, making him unable to remember anything.


    "Mr. Gerald, we should inform the doctor first," Luca reminded him. "Mr. Muller just woke up and needs


    to be examined."


    Stan heard Luca''s voice and found it familiar. Thus, he quickly asked, "Who''s there?"


    "Mr. Muller, both I and Luca are here," replied Luke. His hand was on Luca''s waist as they walked to


    the bedside.


    Stan was stunned for a moment. He looked at Luke and Luca, asking in confusion, "Mr. Crawford, Ms.


    Craw, why are you two in X City?"


    "Uncle Stan, are you confused? They''ve both been here for two days!" Gerald was about to press the


    bell. However, he could not help but stop in his action after he heard what Stan said.


    "Two days?" Stan was astonished. "Mr. Crawford, why aren''t you staying at the ancestral mansion


    when you''re in X City?"


    Gerald felt increasingly uneasy. Why did his uncle seem to have forgotten everything?


    This should not be happening. Could it be that he found out something and he was just pretending?


    Luke did not answer Stan''s question at the moment. Instead, he stared straight at Gerald. "Seems like


    you know a lot about my schedule?"


    Gerald panicked and exined, "I’m close with my uncle. We talk on the phone every day, and he


    mentioned it to me. That’s why I was aware of it.


    "What''s the matter? Is it illegal? Are you, Luke Crawford, so prestigious that others aren''t allowed to


    know your schedule?"


    As Luca listened to Gerald''s provocations, she reminded him, "Mr. Muller''s condition isn''t right. Let''s get


    a doctor first."


    Her words served as a reminder to Gerald.


    He quickly pressed the button.


    Stan felt himself surrounded by a fog, with only two sensations present at the moment—pain and


    confusion.


    How could he not remember what had happened? How did he end up in the hospital? Why did Gerald


    say that Luke and Luca had been in X City for two days already?


    What on earth happened?


    "Mr. Muller, stop thinking about it. Let the doctor examine you first.” Luca saw the confusion reflected in


    Stan’s eyes, further confirming that he had indeed lost his memory.


    This level of confusion could not be feigned by just anyone.


    Even someone from the Ind of Despair might not be able to fake it, so Luca felt relieved.


    The doctor arrived promptly, and Gerald eagerly exined to the doctor that Stan could not remember


    anything.


    The doctor frowned. He first conducted a set of routine checks on Stan and then asked, "What''s your


    name?"


    "I''m Stan Muller." Stan cooperated honestly with the doctor.


    "Do you know what date it is today?" the doctor asked again.


    Stan thought for a moment, then shook his head. He immediately furrowed his brows and said, "My


    head hurts."


    "You hit your head, so it''s normal to have a headache. Can you tell me if you remember what day it is


    today?" the doctor continued to inquire.


    "I forgot. I only remember it''s..." Stan paused for a moment. "It should be shortly after New Year''s,


    maybe about a month after New Year''s?"


    The doctor and Gerald both furrowed their brows.


    "Uncle Stan, it''s already summer now. How could it be shortly after New Year''s?"


    The doctor frowned and shot a stern look at Gerald. "Please don''t interrupt my diagnosis."


    Gerald could only shut up awkwardly.


    Stan looked puzzled again. "Is it already summer? Why do I think it''s just shortly after New Year''s?


    "Alright, I understand. Don''t worry too much. It might be temporary amnesia due to the impact on your


    head. It''s nothing to worry about," reassured the doctor as he patted Stan''s shoulder.


    Then, he turned around to look at Gerald and Luke. "Are you both his family members?"


    "I''m the family member," Gerald hurriedly replied.


    "Please step outside for a moment. I’d like to discuss the patient''s condition with you.” After that, the


    doctor walked out of the ward.


    Luke and Luca did not leave.


    Since the ward door was not closed, they could hear the conversation between the doctor and Gerald.


    "Doc, what''s going on with my uncle?" asked Gerald.


    "I suspect it''s due to the impact on the patient''s brain, resulting in memory loss. He has forgotten what


    has happened in the past few months," answered the doctor.


    "How could something like this happen? Don''t lie to me. How can a person just lose their memory like


    that?"


    "I''m a doctor, and there''s no need for me to lie to you. Let me exin. This kind of thing ismon


    among patients with head injuries. Some may lose their memory of the past few days, others of the


    past several months, and some even forget who they are.


    "Based on the current situation, his amnesia isn''t severe. At least he remembers who he is, and the lost


    memories aren''t too extensive."


    Gerald was so frustrated that he stomped his foot. It was not just a matter of losing a few memories.

    The crucial ones were all gone for Stan!


    "Doc, will he recover from this?"


    "It''s hard to tell. It depends on the patient. Some recover from amnesia within hours or days, but for


    others, it couldst a lifetime. Some people think it''s lifelong amnesia until something triggers their


    brain cells, and suddenly, they remember everything. So, amnesia is unpredictable."


    The doctor shook his head, unable to provide a precise answer.


    "Damn it!" Gerald could not help but curse.


    It seemed that Stan could not be relied on right now. If he wanted to figure out what happened, he


    would have to start with the surveince footage.


    Gerald remembered he had asked Stan to turn off all the surveince cameras as well as the rm...
