Wasting no time, Hailey bent over and pressed her fingers against Noah’s temples. She proceeded to hypnotize him.
“You will slowly wake up, forget the past, and fall in love with me…” she said, her voice soft and alluring.
The hypnosis worked, and Noah slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was glassy and unfocused.
“Who are you?” he asked, bewilderment written on his face.
Hailey hesitated for a second, then smiled. “I am your beloved.”
“And who am I?” Noah asked, his brows knitted in confusion.
“You’re my boyfriend, of course,” Hailey answered without batting an eye. “I’ve been taking care of you for a long time.
Thank goodness you’re finally awake!”
Noah took a good look at Hailey, still frowning.
He tried to rifle through his memories, but it was as if his mind was plagued with tendrils of shadows.
He did remember that there was someone he loved deeply, but her face…
Noah narrowed his eyes and tried to match Hailey’s face with the blurred one from his distorted memory.
Was it her?
“You are my girlfriend?” he asked slowly–doubtfully.
After Noah fell into a coma, she had transformed into a completely different person.
She was able to stabilize the turmoil that threatened the Wall Group using straightforward and decisive tactics. Then, she systematically dealt with the predators circling the company in search of a weak link to infiltrate. She had also suppressed Sutton and Briley with ease, and now, they no longer dared to stir any trouble.
The once sheltered young lady had turned into a formidable force in the business world.
Yet behind her strong exterior lay untold sorrows and heartaches, challenges that only Samuel had witnessed firsthand.
Sadie was, of course, oblivious to Samuel’s thoughts.
She settled inside the car and immediately opened her schedule. “Has the marketing department completed the preliminary selection for the overseas partner companies?”
