Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 69 - Husband, Hug Me!

Serena blinked her clear, distinct eyes, her joy unhidden at the bottom of her eyes.

It was like a beam of light shining straight into Lucas Shaw’s heart.

His Adam’s apple slightly moved, and in a hoarse voice, he asked, “So because I’m in your dreams, I’m not important in reality?”

“It’s not like that!”

Serena’s almond eyes widened, and she puffed her cheeks in retort, “I dreamed about my childhood, but for some reason, I can’t remember those people’s faces.”

Upon hearing this, Lucas Shaw’s eyes sharpened, and his expression gradually grew colder.

“You mean, those people from the experiment?

Serena nodded and explained, “The last time I was injected with the drug was the day we were rescued, I only have a vague impression of what happened before that.”

Serena lowered her head, feeling somewhat dejected.

She could recognize Lucas Shaw clearly, so why couldn’t she remember the faces of those culprits?

Lucas Shaw looked down, his gaze landing on the little one’s dark hair.

He sighed helplessly, gently rubbing the top of her head, whispering comfortingly, “Don’t be sad, it’s not your fault.

Come to think of it, I also can’t remember those people’s faces.

Is it possible that both of our memories were partially erased?”

Before Serena said this, Lucas Shaw always thought it was because of fainting that caused his temporary memory loss, forgetting those people’s faces.

But now, it seems not to be the case.

Serena, known for her extraordinary memory, could recognize him at a glance, yet she couldn’t remember those people.

This means someone deliberately made us forget.

“But how is that possible?” Serena frowned, her eyes filled with panic.

She had studied medicine with her master for many years and had never encountered such a situation.

“Ordinary drugs can’t change a person’s memory, how did they do it?”

Lucas Shaw also fell into deep thought.

But still, had no clue.

He sighed deeply, “Don’t think too much about it, you must be hungry after sleeping for so long, let’s go eat something first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Serena’s stomach suddenly growled.

Serena’s face instantly turned bright red, and she quickly covered her belly with her hands.

Lucas Shaw was amused by her embarrassed demeanor.

He scooped Serena up from the bed and strode toward the door.

With the lure of delicious food, Serena quickly put the matter out of her mind.

However, Lucas Shaw felt heavy-hearted and directly told Master Shaw and Liam Shaw about the issue that night.

Upon hearing this, both their expressions drastically changed.

“Lucas, are you saying that someone deliberately erased your memories back then?

But that’s not realistic!”

Liam Shaw shook his head, his tone filled with disbelief.

Causing someone to completely lose their memory might not be too difficult, but to erase specific parts of memory…

With the current level of technology and medical standards, it’s simply impossible.

Not to mention, this was over a decade ago.

Lucas Shaw crossed his legs and leaned back in the sofa chair.

Under the light, his well-chiseled face appeared dim and distinct, making it hard to discern his emotions.

“I’m just speculating.

After all, that organization wasn’t completely caught back then.

If they were to resurface, the consequences would be unimaginable,” Lucas said in a low tone, his expression dark and unclear.

His usually expressionless face now bore a hint of heaviness.

Master Shaw remained silent for a moment, then pointed out Lucas Shaw’s concerns, “The only experimental subjects who survived back then were you and Serena.

If they really intend to re-emerge, the first thing they’d do is check on the results of their experiment.”

“Does that mean they could appear at any moment around Lucas and Serena?

Even infiltrating their lives without them realizing?” Liam’s face darkened.

Lucas sighed, his expression turning even colder.

“What worries me most is this.

It doesn’t really matter to me, but Serena is still young and naïve, easily exploited by others.”

At this, both Master Shaw and Liam became silent.

Thinking about Serena possibly being in danger at any moment made Lucas’s heart feel as if it were blocked by a stone, heavy and oppressive.

“Lucas, what is your plan?”

After a long while, Master Shaw sighed deeply and asked solemnly.

“I want to vet everyone in our immediate vicinity.

The enemy hides in the shadows, and all we can do is prevent potential threats.”

Lucas stood up from the sofa, his dark eyes resting on Master Shaw and Liam, speaking in a low voice: “I’ll handle this covertly, let’s not tell Serena yet, she might overthink.”

“Rest assured, Serena is now a member of the Shaw family.

We’ll do everything within our power to protect her thoroughly!” Liam walked up to Lucas, patted his shoulder, and then walked out.

After Liam left, Master Shaw looked at Lucas with concern, “Lucas, are you perhaps overthinking it?

Erasing partial memories from someone…

such a thing is almost unheard of.”

“I’m not certain, but we can’t be too careful.”

This issue was too important, and Lucas didn’t want any oversight.

If he were still alone, he really wouldn’t care about his own fate.

But now it was different.

He had Serena.

His little lady was delicate and tender, and couldn’t bear even a bit of grievance.

What would he do if those people harmed her before he made preparations?

Downstairs.

Serena had no idea that someone was worrying about her safety.

She was happily enjoying the delicious food on the dining table.

Eating her favorite sweet and sour ribs, she squinted her eyes in bliss.

Lucas came downstairs to find just this scene.

The petite young girl sat at the table gobbling up her food, blissfully licking her lips.

She looked just like a kitten that had stolen a treat.

“Is it really that delicious?” Lucas sat next to Serena, watching her with a slightly amused expression.

While chewing, Serena nodded vigorously.

“Delicious!”

“Eat slowly, no one’s going to take it from you!” Lucas looked at Serena helplessly and caringly poured her a glass of water.
