"You!" Wynnie was livid. "We are talking to our son. What does this have to do with you?"
Ashley pursed her lips. "You need to think this through, Samuel. What if Kathleen doesn't give her best effort after verbally promising to treat your legs? In that case, you'll have to rely on a walking stick forever."
Samuel's left hand tightened around his walking stick.
Wynnie blocked Ashley from Samuel's view and said to him, "No. Kathleen will never do that."
Samuel wore an indifferent facial expression. "You tell me Kathleen is my fiancee, so why is she not here to meet with me?"
"She's still mad at you. In order to search for you, she stayed in Smealand for three months. She turned so skinny when she came back. If she hated you, why would she remain there for so long?" Wynnie explained.
"Because those were all an act! She's putting up a facade to others as if she's looking for Samuel, but in fact, she did not try her best. Otherwise, how was it possible that she failed to find any clues?" Ashley said at once.
Wynnie glared at her. "No one will think you a fool if you don't speak!"
"Mrs. Macari, you shouldn't be biased toward Kathleen simply because she gave birth to your grandchildren. I almost forgot that you two sided with Kathleen when she divorced Samuel previously. You didn't care the slightest for him," Ashley added.
Wynnie furrowed her brows.
Samuel gazed at Wynnie and Calvin with a poker face. "You two should go back first."
"Samuel! You must leave with me!" Wynnie was anxious.
Nothing good will happen from leaving him here with Ashley!
"I will not go back. Please leave, the two of you," he said.
"Samuel, think carefully. Do not let her deceive you! You've never liked her!'' Wynnie uttered in a state of agitation.
"But she saved me," Samuel said solemnly.
Wynnie froze.
That's right. Ashley saved Samuel. Although I do not want to admit this, I cannot ignore the existence of this relationship between Ashley and Samuel.
Calvin took out a piece of a business card. "This is my contact details. If you have any doubts or any needs, please feel free to contact me."
"Okay." Samuel received the business card.
A hint of malice flashed across Ashley's eyes as she looked at the business card in Samuel's hand.
Calvin tugged on Wynnie's hand. "Let's go." "Samuel, you better don't do anything you'll regret.
Otherwise, you will hate yourself when you regain your memories," Wynnie reminded.
Samuel remained silent.
Ashley immediately shut the door after Calvin dragged Wynnie out of the room.
She returned to Samuel's side and said, "Samuel, are you hungry?"
He shook his head.
She stretched out her hand. "I'll help you keep the business card."
Samuel withdrew his hand. "Give me a phone."
Ashley froze momentarily. "Samuel, I know you're anxious, but at the moment, you require rest..." "Give me a phone,” he demanded.
"Okay. I'll instruct someone to prepare the phone." Ashley nodded in resignation.
Calvin brought Wynnie outside.
"Darling, you shouldn't have hit her earlier," he said.
"I was angry. Ashley distorted the truth. Samuel lost his memories, and he's in her debt after she rescued him. I'm afraid Samuel will trust her instead of us," Wynnie uttered worryingly.
"Samuel knows what he's doing. He merely lost his memories, not that he became a fool. There is so much evidence placed before his eyes. He will make sense of everything. We just need to give him more time," Calvin comforted his wife.
She asked sorrowfully, "Why is Kate not coming to meet with him?"
"I suppose Kate is disheartened. However, she did mention that she will not refuse to meet with Samuel if he approaches her," Calvin explained.
"That's good. I wonder what happened between Samuel and Ashley." Wynnie felt ill at ease.
"Don't overthink the situation. I don't think Samuel likes Ashley a lot. Perhaps he's acting like this because Ashley saved his life."
Wynnie nodded. "Probably."
They went home after saying all that.
