Chapter 421
Albert Sullivan's gaze drifted around the room.
A flicker of surprise passed through his eyes.
"The design of this house is quite unique."
Brandon White felt a slight stir in his heart.
Was Albert truly drawn here by the design?
A faint curve touched the corner of his lips.
"It was the masterpiece of my sister's mother."
"She was a very talented designer."
"It's a pity she passed away too early."
Albert's memories had only just returned.
He hadn't delved deeply into Sophia White's affairs yet.
Hearing that name felt like a heavy blow to his heart.
Even though he already knew she was gone.
Hearing it firsthand was still hard to bear.
A sour bitterness rose in his throat.
He was momentarily speechless.
Albert stood up abruptly.
"I've disturbed you for today."
"I'll pay another visit another day."
His hurried departure left Brandon deep in thought.
Something felt off about the whole situation.
He immediately ordered his subordinates to investigate.
Early the next morning.
Albert returned to the hospital.
Sylvia Sullivan had been anxiously searching for him.
Seeing him dressed in a sharp suit, she froze.
She reached out to touch his forehead.
"Albert, are you alright?"
Her voice was full of worry.
Albert gently pushed her hand away.
"I'm fine."
"I just went out to take care of some business."
His voice was calm and even.
Facing the wife who had been by his side for over twenty years.
His heart was filled with mixed emotions.
All these years, he had lived absurdly.
Yet she never left his side.
If his memories hadn't returned.
He would have been willing to continue living like that.
But fate played a cruel joke.
Making him remember long-buried past events in his twilight years.
That youthful love from his prime.
Now only brought heart-wrenching pain.
Under his father's interference.
Everything ended in separation between life and death.
The moment his memories returned.
He finally understood so many doubts.
Why his elder brother tried so hard to cover things up.
Why all the hospital diagnoses claimed nothing was wrong.
It was all an elaborately set trap.
Sylvia watched him.
Feeling like he was a completely different person.
Her voice trembled.
"Don't scare me like that again."
"If anything happens to you..."
"How will I go on living?"
Albert showed a gentle smile.
"Don't worry."
"I will spend the rest of my life properly by your side."
But he had to uncover the truth first.
Those vivid memories.
Tormented his heart day and night.
Like a bone stuck in his throat.
He secretly contacted his old associates.
Ordering them to investigate the White family background thoroughly.
Not a single detail could be overlooked.
The operation had to be discreet.
They absolutely must not alert the enemy.
