Chapter 197 | Everyone's eyes were glued to Clyde in disbelief, and I felt as if my blood had turned to ice. Was Clyde suffering from amnesia, or were his memories all jumbled up? I approached him, cupping his face in my hands. "Clyde, look atclosely. Who am I?" "Melanie, have you lost it? My girlfriend's right here!" he yelled, then turned to Rachel and said, "Babe, I swear I didn't do anything! It's all her fault." "This isn't exactly my idea of fun, you know!" I retorted, just as he shovedaway. Rachel quickly caught me, then whispered in my ear, "What on earth is happening?" I shook my head; I was as clueless as she was.
Fortunately, a nurse cto wheel Clyde out for a CT scan, and the room quieted down.

"I barely said two sentences to him when I got here, and he woke up, nearly gavea heart attack." "He wakes up and claims I'm his girlfriend. I thought he was joking, so I played along." "Do you think he's developed ssort of psychological disorder?" Rachel had just returned from abroad and had cfor a routine check-up when she stumbled upon Merritt. Their paths had crossed before over Clyde, and a casual inquiry revealed Clyde's accident.
"I didn't expect to find you here..." "Rachel, seems like fate ties you and Clyde together; otherwise, he might have never woken up." I knew Fenton meant no harm, but his words stung. I had been by Clyde's side for so long with no sign of him waking up, and then Rachel returns, and suddenly he's awake? Rachel put an arm around my shoulder. "Melanie, don't worry. Now that he's awake, he'll surely remember everything." I nodded, though I wasn't convinced.
The doctor's examination showed Clyde's physical functions were fine, but his memory seemed confused. Sometimes he remembered his college days, other times the period after being recognized by the Patterson family. Throughout it all, his girlfriend was always by his side in his memories, excluding the period I was abroad. When mentioned his girlfriend going abroad, he even casually said, "Rachel went abroad for further studies, right? I know." I was speechless; Rachel and I shared a dorm room, and I had no idea she went abroad! Merritt looked at Rachel thoughtfully.
"Rachel, I know this is a tough ask, considering you and Melanie are friends, and you're friends with Clyde too. Could you look after Clyde? He seems to only recognize you now, won't even take his medication otherwise." FindRachel glanced at me, a hint of reluctance in her eyes, but I nodded slightly.
Getting Clyde back to himself was the priority. Everything else took a backseat.

Rachel, please help out." Rachel eventually sighed and agreed, though she made it clear if she found a job, she wouldn'te wet able to help with Clyde's medication. Find"He's an adult; he should be able to cto terms with this." "I can't just do nothing when I'm back; I need to find a job."

"No need for an interview for Rachel; she can directly join the company." Clyde suddenly appeared from the room, casting a cold glance my way. Ashburn X
