Chapter 490: Chapter 490: Emotional Breakdown
Oliver Hudson’s brow was furrowed tightly, not understanding what Charlotte Thompson was trying to say.
Not until Charlotte concluded her words did a hint of confusion flash in his eyes as he asked, "What did you say? Amnesia?"
The man’s face was full of disbelief as he continued, "Are you saying that Annie has lost her memory?"
Charlotte crossed her arms and stared at him coldly. After a while, she chuckled and said, "Keep pretending, Oliver Hudson. How could you possibly not know that Annie Anne lost her memory?"
"If not, how could you be so content to be with her?"
Every word Charlotte said hit Oliver like a needle.
Adam Ross, who was still talking with Chad Thompson in the room, sharply caught the commotion outside. After instructing the children to rest properly, he gently opened the door and stepped out, seeing the confrontation between the two at a glance.
The air seemed filled with tension as if preparing for a fierce battle that was about to break out and couldn’t be stopped.
Seeing the murderous look in Charlotte’s eyes, Adam also subtly understood something.
From the hospital room at the end of the corridor, came the sound of a closing door. The nurse came out after pushing Annie Anne into the room. Seeing several people, the nurse still stepped forward to give a few reminders.
"Are you relatives of the patient?"
On the other side, Oliver Hudson flinched, took a step forward, and was about to respond when he heard Charlotte’s crisp voice.
"I’m her friend. Tell me if there’s anything."
After saying that, she deliberately turned her head to look at Oliver Hudson provocatively. Seeing the look in her eyes, Oliver’s face rapidly darkened.
The nurse didn’t notice the strange atmosphere on the scene and simply lowered her head to look at the medical record then said, "The patient’s mood is not optimistic, she is still unconscious now. Once she wakes up, her mood is bound to collapse time and again. Please take care of the patient’s emotions, she can’t bear any more shocks."
After hearing her words, Charlotte pursed her lips and politely said, "I understand. Thank you."
After the nurse walked away, Oliver Hudson muttered to himself, "Emotional collapse?"
Without looking back, Charlotte found the ward, then headed towards it, leaving a cold remark before she left.
"Thanks to you."
Oliver Hudson stood in place, somewhat dazed.
Adam Ross closed the door and walked towards him. Seeing the painful expression on his face, Adam sighed heavily,
"Brother, do you genuinely not know, or are you pretending not to know?"
Upon hearing this, Oliver Hudson looked at Adam Ross in a stupefied manner. After a while, he lifted his hand to rub his aching brow, then shook his head.
Adam Ross was silent for a while, seeing Oliver’s expression, he slowly said, "I also roughly understood the situation. Annie Anne now has mental and psychological illnesses. I heard she suffered severe mental and physical trauma before."
He tentatively glanced at Oliver’s expression. The man slumped against the wall while thick shadows covered his eyes from his eyelashes, making it difficult to see the expression in his eyes.
After a few seconds, Adam Ross continued, "I just found out something too."
He emphasized each word, speaking slowly, "Annie Anne has a daughter, who is now just a few meters away from us in a room."
Upon hearing this, Oliver Hudson subconsciously clenched his fists. His finger joints whitened. He suddenly raised his head, and Adam Ross saw a shock and astonishment on his face that he had never seen before.
Oliver Hudson almost couldn’t believe his ears, tentatively repeating, "What did you say?"
