The Warner family was so powerful that even though he was in a coma, they could not do anything to him.
However, once Luther woke up from the coma, the situation would only get even worse.
Ricky thought and thought again and suggested, "I’ve got a solution, but it is somewhat risky."
"What's the solution?" Charlotte sobbed as she wiped her tears.
"The military has recently developed a new drug that is still in the trial stage. It can make you lose your short-term memory and never regain it. The new drug was intended to be used on soldiers who surrendered during the war for their rehabilitation. I happen to have this new drug." Ricky said calmly.
"Loss of short-term memory ... how short exactly?" Charlotte was surprised inside her heart, stopped crying, raised her eyes and asked.
"Not sure, can be as short as three months, or as long as six months. There are also experimental subjects who lose their memory for as long as a year. It mainly depends on the physical ability and perseverance of the person taking the drug, and there will be relatively large differences between individuals. That's why I said that there will be some risk." Ricky explained.
"Will it really be completely out of your mind?" Charlotte's heart rekindled with hope that if Luther was allowed to forget the recent events, her affair with Ricky would not be revealed, and Luther would not remember that she was carrying a child that was not his. In that case, she still had a chance.
"But what if he even forgets me ..." Charlotte questioned after a moment's reflection. In that case, wouldn't she become just nobody to Luther?
But then she thought, even if Luther forgot about her, at least she still had the engagement and the baby in her womb, which would give her some leverage. It's still way better than if he'd already known everything she had done.
