Memory regained

Chapter 7

"How is she?" Mark asked Dr. Lin.

"She's doing fine physically, but she's suffering from a great emotional distress, that's why she's like that," explained Dr. Lin as the two observed Beatrice.

Lydia and Rio Ken were talking with her and giving her consolation, but Beatrice was not responding and just stared in a particular direction like a lost soul.

Today, they buried Richard's remains, and Beatrice had refused to come. Until now, she was still not talking to anyone. The Robs had talked to him, and his uncle, about them taking over Beatrice's welfare, but Uncle Robert refused, saying that Beatrice was already a part of their family. As she is the widowed wife of Richard….

It was a heartbreaking scene because the Robs had become close to Richard too. They let Beatrice stay in the hospital and gave her the space she wanted.

Days passed by, and Beatrice remained in the hospital. She did not want to be disturbed and did not wish to accept any visitors.

The only thing she said to the doctors was, "Leave me alone. I will not commit suicide, nor will I do anything stupid. I just want to be alone for a while."

Mark had Beatrice monitored 24/7, as he was scared she might kill, or hurt herself.

"Sir, here are the photos. Dr. Lin is right. She is Zuzzy Shi from Shi Hospitals Group," Assistant Kim said as he handed the report to his boss.

Mark looked at the photos and murmured, "So she's alive and had suffered amnesia? The question is… whose body did they confirm to be hers? Something is off, don't you think so, Kim? Dig deeper into it. Do it discreetly, since this is not a simple thing. Those who were involved would not have a second thought to kill anyone."

"Noted, Sir." Assistant Kim said as Mark dismissed him.

"Richard," Mark murmured. He let out a long, conflicted sigh as he stared at the photos of Zuzzy Shi.

"Sir, someone from the hospital has just called. Miss Yang has gone missing," Assistant Kim reported rushing back to his office.

Mark sighed then his phone suddenly rang.

"Alright, keep following her and report to me on everything that she does. Make sure she's safe," Mark said to the person on the other end of the line.

Assistant Kim sighed too. He presumed that the call was from Rapheal.

Rapheal is the head of their security team whom Mark had assigned to personally monitor Zuzzy Shi.

He knew Mark and Richard were very close, but he was a bit confused because he found it unnecessary for his boss to get that much involved with Zuzzy Shi's case.

Maybe because, Richard and Zuzzy Shi aka Beatrice were married, so technically speaking they are family. Maybe that's why his boss had shown a lot of concern about her. He thought to himself.

"Hey, Kim, stop overthinking, or your brain will explode. Go back to your work!" Said mark when he noticed that his assistant was deep in thoughts.

Beatrice went to their family's private graveyard, and the keeper almost lost consciousness when she saw her.

"Miss Zuzzy, you are alive. Oh my God, Old Master had always waited for you to come back. He couldn't accept your tragic death until the end." Said the old woman who burst into tears.

Zuzzy looked at her grandfather's photo, and tears fell from her eyes.

So many things had happened while she was away.

She was consumed by her loss of Richard so much she only found out about everything that had happened to her grandfather and all their assets just recently.

Yes, she had regained all of her memories back. She was Zuzzy Shi, and she must move on and start her life anew. That was what Richard her 3days old husband would want her to do.

But how? Where should she return? They had taken everything.

She clenched her fists and bowed to her grandfather's tomb.

"I am sorry, Grandpa. Please, rest in peace… your granddaughter is okay. I promise I will take everything back. I will take it all back from them," she murmured crying.

She looked at the keeper as she asked her to keep her visit a secret. And that she should not mention anything to anyone about her being alive.

No one could be trusted. Even her grandfather's death was something suspicious. Despite his age, he was quite the vigorous man to be sick all of a sudden.

Her phone rang, it was Lydia, asking where she was in a worried voice.

"I'm fine, Lydia. Don't worry about me because it's not good for your baby. I'm on my way to my apartment now to do my usual things. Please, send my regards to the family. I will visit you soon," she said in her usual tone.

Beatrice bit her lip as she reached her door. She turned around and stared at the adjacent door. It was Richard's apartment. He intentionally moved there to be near her. They haven't even had the chance to move in together after their wedding…

Tears welled up in her eyes, she struggled hard to fight the urge to go inside because she knew his password.

She must move on. That was what she kept on telling herself, although the pain was killing her. She felt like she was the most unlucky person in the world to have such unfortunate events happening in her life.

She must return to her old self to survive all of this. Zuzzy Shi was not as weak as Beatrice Yang.
