I raised my brows as the scowl on her face suddenly melted into a soft expression as soon as she turned to Mark, her brows drew down in concern and her eyes glistened with tears. She moved closer to the bed and perched on it, away from me.
"Mark," her voice quivered as she spoke, "What's wrong? Don't you recognize me?" She placed her palm on Mark's face but he peeled it away, seeming irritated.
"Are you my real mom?" He bit out a bit harshly.
Rose nodded, "Yes son, I'm your mom. Your biological mother, I carried you in my bally
you remember?"
Mark frowned at her, "How am I supposed to remember that I was in your belly?"
A weird sound escaped my lips as I tried to hold back my laugh.
for months, don't
Before Rose could spew any insult, Mark, oblivious to the effect of his words, asked, 'Then who is she?" That puzzled gaze settled on me again.
I quickly interjected before Rose would blurt some stupid answer, "I'm your creditor. You owe me."
"What?" Rose and Mark blurted out the same time. I did a good job of holding back my laugh at Rose's confused expression. She looked genuinely and utterly lost.
"You owe me a lot of money. I heard about your accident and got worried that if you die, I wouldn't get my money back so I came to check on you. The"
"So what were you going to do? Stop me from dying?"
I snorted and my shoulders shook as I laughed.
"Can you stop? I'm trying to fill your memory here," I said seriously when I
stopped laughing.
"The caregiver tending to you, the bodyguards outside, the hospital bills are all paid by me. You need to hurry up and pay me back."
My fingers swiftly wrapped around the bed frame to stop myself from toppling over when Rose angrily pushed me on the shoulder. "You heartless and cruel woman! Do you even have any conscience? My son just woke up and has lost his memory, and all you're still concerned about is him paying you back!"
That was it! I had lost my patience. I leapt from the bed and dragged her up. "You ungrateful woman! You keep speaking like you were here when he was struggling to stay alive is that your way of thanking me?" "What are you doing?" She yelled as I pushed her from the bed and toward the door. "Get your hands off me, bitch
pressed her face to the wall and with one hand, I opened the door.
My hands fell beside me when I saw the throng of people in the hallway. The security tear formed a solid wall between them and the door.
I recognized some of them as board members of GT group as I had seen them once or twice during a few shareholders' meetings.

"How can I help you?" I stuck my head out from behind one of the guards and asked them. They quickly walked forward. "We're relatives of Mark, we're here to see him."
I wasn't allowed to speak as another person picked up from where the relative stopped. "We also came from work, we are the board members. The man almost twisted his neck as he tried to look past the hefty men into the room. He flashed me a sheepish smile, "We heard he's awake so we've come to see for ourselves."
What the hell?! No one, absolutely no one bothered to pay him a visit when he was unconscious, now that he's awake they're here to show their fake ass care. And these ugly people that claimed to be his relatives, I swear, I don't recognize any of them. I'm sure the board members must be displeased, they were probably hoping that he would not make it.
And how had they even found out. Mark just woke up now and I doubt even the doctor knew about it yet.
Well, I guess it won't take long before his amnesia will be revealed and his position as the CEO of GT group will be at risk.
