Chapter 247
“You…”
Taya was speechless. She didn’t know how to explain any of this right now to Jackson.
She was wearing Griffon’s clothes, which were huge on her body.
Her lips were red and swollen, and seeing the love bites on her neck hurt Jackson.
His eyes were red, and his hands were trembling. He wanted to touch the places Griffon had touched, as if he could erase the evidence of what the other wolf had done, but Taya avoided his hand.
For Jackson, the action of Taya instinctively avoiding him was more hurtful than the sounds they made when they were locked inside Griffon’s bedroom.
He took a step back in disbelief and looked at the
woman standing at the door.
Until this moment, Jackson realized that what five years apart meant was not amnesia but loss.
After his brother pretended to be him and tried to kill Taya, he completely lost her…even though his brother’s attempt hadn’t been successful.
Angry, burning tears welled up in his eyes, making it impossible for him to clearly see what Taya looked like.
He staggered forward with difficulty, raised his hand, and pulled her into his embrace.
He hugged her with all the strength he dared, as if he wanted to pull her into his bones and blood.
But he couldn’t feel any response from her.
In the past when he hugged her, she would smile and put her arms around his waist.
She would snuggle in his arms and acted like a spoiled child. “Silas, can you stop being so busy with work and spend more time with me?”
Taya had asked him to spend more time with her. But
he had never had time to accompany her in order to give her a better future and life.
When he had time, she and he had missed each other because of a car accident…
This regret gripped his heart, suffocating him to the point of being unable to breathe. Even if he were to take in large mouthfuls of air, it would not be able to alleviate the pain in the slightest. His wolf clawed inside of him, desperate for things between him and Taya to go back to what they used to be.
When a drop of moisture fell on her collarbone, Taya was shocked. She wanted to raise her head, but his big palm grabbed her.
“No, don’t look at me…”
The Alpha would never allow someone to look upon his weak moment.
Taya stopped moving and allowed him to hug her, but her mind went blank.
Jackson was acting abnormally. It was as if he had changed into another person.
“I’m sorry.”
He buried his head in her neck and apologized in a low, gruff voice.
“I couldn’t accept that you were willing to sell yourself to save me. I was in an emotional blind rage. I had a car accident on the way home, and my head injury made me forget about you…
“I’m sorry, Taya. I just remembered. I’m so sorry…”
Hearing his sincere words, Taya couldn’t help but choose to believe him.
He had not lied to her. He had really lost his memory.
He said that he lost his memory on the way home, but when she went to Wolverly Capital to find him, he clearly hadn’t lost his memory.
Taya was very confused and wanted to ask him what
