Chapter 651 Why Can't She Remember Anything?
- Just like Gloria said, Karen woke up after 45 minutes. Joseph finally felt relieved. He stayed by Karen’s side and said with some surprise, “You’re awake.” Karen looked wildly around and found herself in the bedroom. “What time is it?” She didn’t know what time it was. Did I just take a nap? Or is it just dawn? She was quite confused. Joseph said, “It’s 1 p.m. It’s still early. If you’re still sleepy, get back to sleep.” His words set Karen thinking. 1p.m.? Did I really take a nap? But it’s not quite right. Did I have lunch? I can’t remember it at all. Joseph looked at Karen’s blank face and asked in bewilderment, “Why do you have that look on your face? Did you dream?” Karen still looked puzzled and asked Joseph, “Did we have lunch?” Joseph snorted, “What? You drifted into sleep while you were talking to me. I had someone carry you back to the bedroom. I’m still wai ting for you to have lunch together. Let’s eat if you feel up to it.” Karen was silent. She was even more con fused. “I fell asleep on the couch while I was talking?” She remembe red she was sleeping on the couch with Joseph. “Your blood pressure is a little high recently, which makes you sleepy. You should have a lighter diet.”
- Karen frowned and had an intuition that there was something wrong. High blood pressure induces sleepiness indeed. On second thoug ht, Karen sat up. Joseph unconsciously tried to help her, b ut Karen was still mad at him and slapped his hand away. “I don’t need you!” Che Demobor Andhi na? Joseph’s face cha nged slightly, but then he sighed, “I know you’re still mad at me. I’m sorry. I’ll just let you have whatever you want. If Gloria and Jordy want to get back together, I’ll just let them, okay?” Karen looked at Joseph in surprise and said, “That’s a turn–up for the books.” Why do I feel like everything’s different after I wake up? Am I still in a dream? At this th ought, Karen patted her leg and felt a little pain. Only now did she realize that it wasn’t a dream at all. Joseph felt a bit awkward. Karen looked at him and said in surprise, “What did you say? Say that again.” Joseph lo oked away and felt embarrassed. He suddenly recalled what Gloria had told him and the scene of Karen passing out. Then he took a breath, looked back at Karen, and tried to sound soft. “I’ve thought it through.”
- Karen’s eyes widened. She stopped feeling hungry and stared hard at Joseph, trying to take in his changed expression. Joseph said with a sigh, “I was stubborn. I wasn’t pleased with Gloria because Jordy didn’t like her and I only cared about my interests.” Joseph noticed Karen’s face turn grimmer and added, “Just hear me out. I mean I agree with you that they should get back together. It’s not a white lie. I have a thoughtful analysis.”You’ve Finally Thought It Through! Karen sof tened a little and looked at Joseph with suspicion. J oseph continued, “During this time, I’ve found Gloria is not what I thought she was. She is nice to you no matter how mean I am to her. And she still respects me. So I’ve changed my attitude towards her.” With a feeling of doubt, Karen blinked and remained silent. Anyway, she was pleased that Joseph changed his mind. Joseph went on in his firm voice.
