Chapter 1160 Why Marry Her
"This Derek is Mrs. Howard's bodyguard. When Mrs. Howard was filming alone outside, you were worried and instructed me to find a suitable and reliable bodyguard. I happened to know a retired old friend who knew Derek. He said Derek is very skilled, capable of taking down four or five strong men at close range."
Adrian looked at the information sent over.
Derek had served in an international mercenary organization.
Indeed, very impressive.
He said to Brice, "Brice, you've been by my side for so many years. Tell me, why did I marry Natalie?"
He couldn't figure out why he would marry an actress like Natalie.
Apart from having a top-tier beautiful face, Natalie's family background and personality were not his standards.
But when he woke up, he had forgotten everything.
Everyone told him that this woman was his wife.
Although Adrian didn't reject her, he couldn't get close to her either.
Brice said, "Mr. Howard, do you remember Alice?"
"Alice?" Adrian repeated the name.
No impression.
"Mr. Howard, three years ago when you just returned to the country, you were attacked by a competitor and drugged. You were staying at the Four Seasons Hotel. I was about to go out and find a clean woman for you, but I got stuck outside. By the time I returned, it was too late."
"That night, a girl entered your room and neutralized the drug's effects. At the time, you thought this woman was Alice from the Cullen family. Because you took her virginity, you felt guilty and wanted to take responsibility by marrying her. So, you decided to get engaged to Alice."
"To make a long story short, the one who saved you was Natalie, not Alice. But because the two looked very similar, you mistook them. So, you ended up with Natalie."
"Do I like Natalie?"
"Well, to be precise," Brice said seriously, "Mr. Howard, you love her very much."
"Love?" Adrian was a bit surprised.
Could he really love a woman?
Many people said Adrian had a cold personality, was unapproachable, and always seemed to reject others.
In the past, the Howard family had asked him to go on blind dates. Every year when Adrian returned, Claire would always ask him to meet a few socialites.
Adrian had a reputation for never fooling around and never having young women around him. Many socialites were eager to pursue him, but Adrian always coldly rejected them.
And now, he was already married.
Brice said, "Mr. Howard, you'll understand all this once you regain your memory. It wasn't easy for you and Mrs. Howard to come together. During the time you were in a coma, Mrs. Howard was heartbroken and stayed by your bedside every day. The relationship between you two can't be described in just a few words."
After hanging up the phone, Adrian sat on the couch, his knees crossed.
He gazed into the distance, seemingly lost in thought.
Violette walked over, "It's late, Mr. Howard. You should rest early."
Adrian didn't respond, and Violette didn't ask further.
She wasn't originally a servant here but one from the old mansion in the suburbs.
Because she had a medical background and was meticulous in her work, and Adrian needed to recover from his injuries, she came here to take care of him.
She didn't know much about the relationship between Adrian and Natalie, but she knew that they used to have a good relationship.
This time, after the car accident, Adrian lost his memory and became a different person.
