Chapter 198
“Quick, stop the bleeding.”
“The cut is too deep.”
“Call for an emergency medevac immediately.”
The medical team sprang into action.
Susan watched the deep wound on Ben’s back as the medics worked hastily.
Professionals doing their job.
Despite her urgency, she knew she couldn’t help and could only stand by and watch helplessly.
She stared at the wound.
She stared at Ben’s pale face.
And in the depths of her eyes, a sea of red began to swell.
Ben…
If something happened to Ben…
Susan’s gaze suddenly shifted to Yana.
Yana was bound and gagged, tossed aside.
Seeing Ben in bad shape, a satisfied smile appeared on Yana’s lips.
Without expression, Susan walked over and yanked the cloth from Yana’s mouth.
Yana looked up at Susan with a sense of victory, “Now you’ll be just like me. We sisters will be widows
together,
that’s a kind of…”
Susan’s gaze turned icy as she pped Yana with all her might.
Yana was stunned, barely believing Susan would hit her, “You… you hit me?”
Susan said nothing, fiercely delivering another p.
Yana grew furious, struggling desperately.
With a nk face, Susan kept pping Yana.

Yana was dumbfounded.
Why had Susan suddenly erupted?
Even when Yana had been at her worst before, Susan had neverid a hand on her.
As Susan raised her hand to strike again, Yana, terrified, screamed, “Susan, you
Can’t hit me, I’m carrying a child!”
Susan’s hand paused in mid–air,
That tactic worked. Yana was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.
p.
A heavy pnded on her face!
Yana was seeing stars for a moment.
She looked at Susan.in disbelief, “You…”
“What about me?” Susan’s voice was chillingly cold, “Does your pregnancy have anything to do with
me? Did I get you pregnant?”
“But… but…” Yana waspletely taken aback, “Aren’t you afraid of killing two lives with one? Where
is your conscience?”
“Without Ben, what use would I have for a conscience?” Susan’s voice grew colder, “Yana, you better
pray that Ben is fine! Otherwise, I will make sure you understand what it means to wish you were dead
rather than alive.”
Susan’s eyes were terrifying.
Yana couldn’t help but shiver.
“Call the police,” Susanmanded to someone nearby, “Charge her with attempted murder! Find the
bestwyer. I want her to spend the rest of her life behind bars!”
“Yes!” The person nearby immediately responded.
Yana was shaking more violently now.
When she had the dagger, the rush of blood to her head made her forget fear.
But now… facing prison for life?
The fear was creeping in.
“Susan, you can’t do this to me. I’m your sister, your own sister,” Yana screamed at the top of her
lungs.

Susan stuffed a cloth in Yana’s mouth, her eyes cold and unfeeling. “Quiet!”
“The bandaging is done!” the medical staff called out.
Just then, the emergency medevac arrived.
They quickly moved Ben onto the aircraft.
Susan followed, silent, simply holding Ben’s hand tightly.
“Mrs. Landor, don’t worry too much. The dagger was aimed at your heart, but because Ben is taller, it
didn’t hit a vital part on him. Now that the bleeding has stopped, he’s likely not in any danger,” someone
tried to reassure her.
Susan nodded, not speaking, just holding Ben’s hand even tighter.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
Ben was rushed to the emergency room.
Susan stood at the door, like a statue.
A few hourster.
In the ward…
Susan stayed by the bedside, watching Ben without blinking.

“Mrs. Landor, Mr. Landor’s wound didn’t hit any vital organs, and thanks to the timely bandaging and
arrival, also given him an emergency blood transfusion. He’ll wake up soon,” the doctor reassured.
“You don’t have to stay here the whole time. Go and have something to eat.”
Susan shook her head, unmoving.
She wasn’t going anywhere. She wanted to stay right there.
She suddenly remembered waking from her own unconsciousness.
The first thing she saw was Ben.
Thinking back, Ben must have felt just like her now, not daring to leave for a step.
With these thoughts, her gaze softened.
“Wake up soon,” Susan whispered into Ben’s ear. “There’s a reward if you wake up now.”
As she spoke, Ben’s fingers twitched.

Then, with some difficulty, he opened his eyes, his voice hoarse, “What reward?”
Susan was speechless.
“Where’s my reward?” Ben looked at her expectantly.
Susan took a deep breath, “Were you really unconscious just now?”
Ben blinked, “I was still groggy, but when I heard there was a reward, of course, I had to wake up.”
Susan stared at him.
Ben cleared his throat, “I was just joking, no reward is fine…”
Before he could finish, Susan bent down and kissed his lips without hesitation.
Ben’s pupils dted.
He wanted to respond, but a slight movement sent a sharp pain across his back.
“Don’t move,” Susan looked at him, “I’ll take care of it.”
Don’t move, I’ll take care of it.
Ben’s heart thumped wildly.
Susan fiercely kissed him again.
After the kiss.
Ben seemed even more excited.
The doctor was watching them, after all.
The doctor watched the pair, then numbly turned to leave, saying at the door, “Carry on, I didn’t see
anything. But I don’t rmend any vigorous activity until the wound is fully healed.”
After speaking, the doctor thoughtfully closed the door.
Susan sudd
suddenly felt somewhat awkward as she looked at Ben, “This is all your fault.”
Ben yed the innocent brilliantly, “But you’re the one who teased me first.”
Susan was speechless.
Susan gave Ben a stern look, but her eyes softened, “You rest up and don’t get any funny ideas.”

Ben grasped her hand tightly, “I don’t feel like resting at all right now. I just want to talk to you.”
Susan’s expression softened as well, and she asked gently, “What would you like to talk about?”
“About Monica… there was really nothing between us,” Ben stated, looking pitifully wronged. “What you
overheard that day at the hospital wasn’t what I truly felt. I’ve never believed that it was you who
caused Penelope’s harm. I was just using that stance to stabilize the situation temporarily, so I could
find out the truth.”
Susan nodded, “I realized thatter. After I recovered my memory, I looked up the events on Twitter.
Ben, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were looking for me for so long.”
Ben held her hand firmly, “I was wrong. I was so focused on solving the problems that I neglected your
feelings.” Susan shook her head, “No, I was at fault. I shouldn’t have distrusted you and just
disappeared like that.”
Ben became frantic: “How can you be at fault? It was clearly me…
He was about to argue further when Susan’s eyes curled up, and she leaned in to kiss him again,
cutting off his
est.
Ben’s gaze visibly softened, and he no longer rushed to defend himself, just quietly enjoying the kiss.
After all, why worry about who was right or wrong?
At this moment, as long as they could hold each other, that was enough.
After a while.
Susan was speechless.
Susan wanted to sew Ben’s mouth shut.
Seeing Susan’s flushed face, Ben suddenly remembered something. He coughed lightly, looking a bit
sheepish as he spoke, “Now that you have your memory back, what about the things that happened
during your amnesia…”
Susan looked at him with a mock smile, “Oh, did something happen while I was amnesic?”
Ben quickly shook his head.
Susan continued, “I was at Theresa’s when I recovered my memory. It seemed she was out working,
so it was just me alone. Myst memory is of Timothy falling off the cliff. After that, the police must have
arrived and rescued me. As for how I ended up at Theresa’s, I have no idea.”
Susan had forgotten everything that happened during her amnesia after regaining her memory!
Ben was torn between being sad and relieved.

“Do you know what happened?” Susan Inquired, looking at Ben.
Ben shook his head somewhat gulltily, “l–don’t know. Maybe the police found Theresa’s contact in your
phone and reached out to her?”

Susan gave him a look and thenughed, “That’s possible. After all, there aren’t many people in my
contacts, and you were blocked by me.”
Ben nodded vigorously, “That must be it.”
Ben needed to coordinate his story with Theresa immediately.
That chapter of pretending to be poor during the amnesia could be forgotten, better left untouched.
Susan didn’t bother to expose him. She spoke softly, “Alright, I’ll go find a doctor to check on your
wound.”
“I want you to check it,” Ben insisted, holding onto Susan’s hand.
“Don’t be silly,” Susan said with a chuckle..
Still, Ben wouldn’t let go, so Susan leaned in close to his ear and whispered, “Once you’re healed,
however you want me to look, I will.”
With that, she freed herself from his grasp and walked out.
Ben felt undone.
Right now, he couldn’t handle any teasing at all.
Butl
The idea of “however you want me to look” quickened his heartbeat.
While Susan was away, he had to warn Theresa quickly.
He grabbed his phone and sent her a message.
Theresa, in the midst of an advertising event, nced at the message and was at a loss for words.
She effortlessly forwarded it to Susan.
Susan saw the message and couldn’t help butugh.
[Susan has regained her memory but forgotten what happened during her amnesia! Remember, it was
the police who contacted you, and you brought her back! As for me, I never bought any house, nor did I
ever pretend to be poor! Remember this!]

After a moment, Susan replied to Theresa, “y along with him.”
Theresa raised an eyebrow, “Can I take this chance to ask him for a few favors?”
“Ask away,” Susan texted back with augh before putting away her phone.
“Really…” Theresa chuckled to herself. Of course, she wouldn’t actually press Ben for favors.
Phew, that should settle things.
This drama should finally be over.
These two could finally have a peaceful life.
Seriously.
She wondered, “Was she the one fretting over their antics?”
Theresa sighed, yet a smile crept onto her face.
