Chapter 720:

Seeing his adorable demeanor, Renee felt a mix of sweet and sorrowful emotions. She pondered what he might think of this encounter when the toxins left his system and his memories returned. She hoped he would be honest with himself and consider getting into a new relationship.

Renee’s sudden silence caught Ryder’s attention. He studied her face, feeling that something wasn’t right.

He called out, “Renee…”

Renee was snapped out of her thoughts by Ryder’s voice. She lifted her eyes, met his intense stare, and inadvertently murmured, “Mr. Chadwick…”

Ryder, caught off guard, realized something. He pointed at her and shouted, “So this is your plan! Nicely done!”

Renee found herself at a loss for words. He was so immature!

“So, you want me to get involved with someone else to ease me out of your life? Then, when I regain my memories, I won’t bother you, and you can just move on without me!”

Renee was struck speechless again. How could he articulate it so bluntly?

Though he wasn’t entirely off the mark, Renee would never admit that. That would make her seem heartless.

So, Renee protested, “No, that’s not what I was thinking!”

“Really? Wasn’t I right?” Ryder pressed.

Renee responded with feigned indignation, “First, you tell me who you were with last night!”

“Renee! Can we drop this topic?” he pleaded.

She firmly said, “No, we can’t!”

As Ryder stood there, dumbfounded, with his mouth open, Renee couldn’t contain her laughter.

“Ha! Naha!”

William pushed the door open just as Renee’s exuberant laughter echoed through the room, casting a lively atmosphere between her and Ryder.

In his memory, it had been a long time since he had witnessed such unrestrained mirth from Renee. In the days when Johnny was still alive, she always seemed so light-hearted, because of Johnny’s readiness to protect her from any consequences of her mischief.

William paused, stunned by the scene, until a woman’s voice interrupted his thoughts from behind.

“Mr. Mitchell, what’s wrong?”

“Mr. Mitchell, are you okay?”

William was pulled from his thoughts by the voice.

In the hospital room, Ryder and Renee both turned their heads toward the door. Renee looked directly at William, while Ryder met Veda’s eyes momentarily before both quickly diverted their gazes, feeling awkward.

“Dr. Ballard, please come in.”

William welcomed Veda into the room and set down the breakfast he had gotten for Renee on the table next to the bed.
