    Chapter 495


    “Don’t talk nonsense!” Bane sternly rebuked.


    Startled, Jessie instantly fell silent, afraid to speak. Her eyes were reddened, and tears


    looked like they were going to slide down her cheeks at any time, making her look


    particrly pitiful.

    When Benjamin nced at her, he sighed in his heart. “That won’t happen for now.


    Anyway, consult other doctors and see if there are alternative ways to give her nutrition


    without her eating. If she doesn’t want to eat, then find other means. There’s always a


    solution. However, people still need to eat. The method I mentioned can only be


    temporary; a long–term refusal to eat is not viable. Even if there are other ways to keep


    her alive, her body will deteriorate, and in the end…” Although he didn’t finish his


    sentence, everyone there understood what he was trying to say.


    No one spoke further, and Benjamin soon left.


    With an icy gaze, Bane stared at the closed door, feeling as if a knife was slowly cutting


    through his heart.


    “I should go in now, Mr. Morison,” said Jessie.


    Yet, he stopped her. “Wait. Come with me.”

    She eximed, “Huh?” Although she didn’t know why he wanted to see her, he was her


    employer, so she followed him.


    Before leaving, Bane nced at Ethan and said, “Take good care of her. Let me know if


    anything happens.”


    Ethan, with an expressionless face, nodded.


    After they left, Ethan remained standing in ce. Only after a while did he look up at the


    closed door and remember the decision he had made. Did Mr. Morison give me this


    opportunity on purpose? Otherwise, why would he call Jessie away at this moment?


    Regardless, he decided to push open the door and enter.


    The curtains in the room were drawn so it was dim inside, and the window was only


    slightly open to allow for venttion due to Victoria’s weakened state. The whole room


    felt stuffy and suffocating. Ethan even thought, Wouldn’t living in such an environment


    worsen her condition?


    At this moment, Victoria was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed, appearing as if


    she were asleep. When Ethan approached, he silently watched her for a while before


    calling out, “Miss Selwyn.”


    As he expected, shepletely ignored him. Initially, when he spoke to her, she still


    had some reaction, but now… As the doctor said, her condition is indeed worsening


    rapidly.

    Thinking that Bane might return soon, Ethan decided not to beat around the bush and


    spoke directly. “Miss Selwyn, besides Mr. Cadogan, are there any other people you can’t


    forget?”

    After he said that, he didn’t wait for Victoria’s reaction and continued, “Your memory


    may have temporarily disappeared, so you can’t recall it now, but some emotions are


    ingrained in one’s bones. Do you really have no one that you miss?”


    At his words, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at him with a calm gaze. “Who


    would I miss?” She felt that she had forgotten something, but she couldn’t recall it, so


    naturally, she attributed this feeling to the aftermath of amnesia.


    As Ethan looked at her intently, he said, “For example, your children.”


    When she heard the word ‘children‘, her chest felt as if it had been struck heavily, and


    her heart pounded like a drum. “My children…” She repeated the word, feeling as if a


    series of images were shing through her mind.


    “Yes, your children.”


    At this moment, Victoria’s previously lifeless face finally showed a spark of life, as if a


    switch had been flipped within her. My children. I have children? No wonder I keep


    having the feeling that I’ve forgotten something important.


    Seeing her seemingly reignite her will to live, Ethan nced in the direction of the door

    and quickly said, “Please don’t tell anyone about this, Miss Selwyn. If possible, perhaps


    you can try tomunicate with Mr. Morison. Maybe… you can persuade him.” If


    there’s anyone who can persuade him, it will probably be Miss Selwyn.


    “Persuade him?” Victoria was no longer as deste as before. She even forced herself


    to straighten her body, as if she had found mental support. “Persuade him to let me go?


    But even in my current state, he doesn’t seem willing to. Will he agree if I persuade


    him?”


    “You have to give it a try, no matter what. It’s better than taking your health lightly, Miss


    Selwyn.”


    If it had been before, Victoria might not have cared about her health, but after hearing


    from Ethan that she had children, she now felt that she had to take care of herself.


    “Alright, I’ll try, but I don’t have any memories of him. Can you tell me something about


    the past? Maybe it will help me.”


    “Of course.” Ethan nodded and then said, “But they mighte back soon. It’s probably


    not a good time to talk now. If you want to, I cane to you tonight.”


    “Okay.”


    “So… are you going to eatter?”


    She paused for a moment and then put on a rare smile. “I have to, for the sake of my


    Chapter 495 Igniting Her Will to Live


    children.”

    When Ethan saw the smile on her face that had been missing for so long, he was


    momentarily stunned, but he then nodded. “I should leave now. Mr. Morison should be


    back soon. I think he’s looking for food that you’ll eat. Eat a little bit today, and try not to


    resist the psychiatrist too much tomorrow. Pretend to ept his treatment.”


    “I got it.” Victoria hesitated for a moment, but when she saw that he was about to leave,


    she said, “By the way, can I ask you a question?”


    At her words, Ethan, who had intended to leave, stopped in his tracks. “Go ahead.”


    “What do my children look like? Do you have any photos you can show me?”


    He was taken aback for a moment and then shook his head. “I don’t have them stored


    on my phone, but I will find a way to get the photos. If I manage to get them, I’ll show


    them to you as soon as possible.”


    “Okay, thank you.”


    “You’re wee, Miss Selwyn. I should get going now.” Without staying any longer, he


    quickly left.


    Meanwhile, Victoria sat on the couch. Previously, she felt a heaviness in her chest, and


    her whole being seemed to have traversed a life of despair,pletely devoid of any


    vitality. Living didn’t seem like a meaningful thing at all.


    However, the emotions she felt in her chest now werepletely different. It was filled


    with indescribable feelings, soft yet powerful, not only igniting her will to live but also


    making her brave.


    She didn’t think that Ethan was lying to her because from the moment he told her about


    her children, she felt a connection with them. Hence, she was certain that she had


    children.


    When Jessie returned and entered the room, she immediately sensed a different aura


    from Victoria. Even though Victoria was still leaning on the couch, the feeling she gave


    off waspletely different.
