Scarlett looked down at the ring on her hand. She was sunk in thought until Raymond came over and held her in his arms. She looked up at the man in front of her. "When did you get back your memory?" Raymond touched her ring. His eyes were full of tenderness as he looked down at Scarlett with a smile. "Soon after you left Bomsville." Raymond's eyebrows moved. His eyes fell on Scarlett's hand with the ring.
Scarlett suddenly remembered that more than two months ago, the night she had just returned from Bomsville, she was very anxious because Raymond didn't reply to her messages on WhatsApp. She didn't sleep well that night.
It seemed that something had happened to Raymond after she left that day.
Scarlett grunted. "What happened?" Raymond knew he couldn't hide it from Scarlett. The incident happened more than two months ago. He was now safe and got back his memory because of Orion's scheme. Thus, it was a blessing in disguise.

Raymond gazed down at Scarlett for a moment. "There was a small accident that day." "A small accident?" Scarlett looked at Raymond with a faint smile. She didn't believe it.
Raymond caressed Scarlett's face, smiling wryly. "After you left that night, | came out of the company after a meeting and saw Orion's people on the way home. They were looking for me and holding guns. Joseph and Allen asked me to hide. They went to fight with those people. Later, someone found me. | was shot in the abdomen and fell before | could dodge. When | woke up after the operation, | remembered the past." When Raymond said this, his face was calm, as if it were nothing serious.
It had been more than two months since the incident. Raymond had regained his memory and was standing in front of Scarlett, but Scarlett still felt a bit frightened.
After hearing Raymond's words, Scarlett couldn't help looking down at his belly. " Here?" Scarlett said, raising Raymond's shirt.
In the bright light, Raymond's wound was very obvious, though it had healed.
Scarlett stared down. Her finger was trembling.
Scarlett glanced up at Raymond. Her finger gently fell on his wound. "Does it still hurt?" Raymond covered Scarlett's hand, shaking his head. "No." When he was shot, he didn't feel much pain because he passed out after falling.
Yet in times of peace, Raymond knew that if he told Scarlett about the gun attack, she would be worried.

Orion and Kent had been watching Raymond. During that time, even though Raymond recovered his memory, he didn't dare to contact Scarlett, afraid that Orion and Kent would be desperate and attack Scarlett. Besides, he wanted to give Scarlett a surprise after dealing with Orion and Kent Since Orion and Kent were almost defeated and couldn't fight back, Raymond didn't want to wait any longer.
Scarlett touched his wound again. He had recovered after the two months, but the scar was clear. A scar was usually not painful.
Scarlett softly pressed his wound, withdrew her hand, walked to the bar, got a kettle of water, and boiled it.
The water was bubbling. Raymond followed Scarlett, not knowing if she was angry.
They were silent. Only the sound of boiling water could be heard in the room.
