"It's you!"
The man looked confused. "You know me?"
Instead of answering, Suzy asked, "You don't recognize me?"
"Should 1?" He studied her intently, but his blank expression didn't shift.
In his eyes, Suzy saw nothing but confusion. "You've lost your memory, haven't you?"
His eyes narrowed in surprise. "How do you know that?"
For three years, he had kept his amnesia a secret, not even sharing it with those closest to him. How could this
woman, a complete stranger know about it?
"I'm a doctor," Suzy explained calmly. "The way you looked atjust now, full of uncertainty and a lack of
recognition for the past, is a look I've only seen in people with memory loss."
A doctor?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer words stirred something within him. Though he couldn't recall any memories tied to her, there was an
inexplicable sense of familiarity. Perhaps they really had known each other before.
His wariness eased significantly. "You're right. | don't remember anything about my past. When | woke up, they
calledDrake and told| was the boss around here."
Suzy released her grip on his throat and ruffled his hair with a faint smile. "I never would've guessed that the
‘legendary Drake' everyone talks about is actually you, kid."
Drake, who normally hated anyone touching him, was oddly unfazed by her gesture. Even more surprising, faint
images surfaced in his mind-blurry flashes of a woman often doing the sthing to him.
The memory was too blurred to reveal the woman's identity, but could it possibly be the one standing right in
front of him?
Seeing the bewilderment in his eyes, Suzy felt a pang of sympathy. "Poor thing. Don't worry, as your sister, I'll
help you recover your memories."
"Sister?" He frowned at the word, his confusion deepening.
"Yes," Suzy said, after a slight pause. "I'm your sister. I've been looking for you all these years."
Since he couldn't remember anything, it wasn't like he could contradict her. She could say whatever she wanted,
and he'd have no choice but to believe it.
"I've been searching for you for three years," Suzy began, her voice tinged with emotion."

Chapter 0549
I've traveled across half the globe. Everyone toldyou were probably gone, that there was no hope of finding
you. But | refused to believe them.
"You're my brother. Others might give up on you but | never would. | told myself over and over that you were still
alive, somewhere, waiting forto rescue you.
"Maybe heaven took pity on me. It ledhere, to finally find you..."
To sell the act further, Suzy forced a few tears to well up and slide down her cheeks, fully embracing the role of
an older sister reunited with her long-lost brother. Her performance was flawless.
Seeing her cry stirred something uncomfortable in him, a pang of guilt or sympathy he couldn't quite place.
"What happened back then?" he asked quietly.
"I don't know," Suzy replied, shaking her head. "I was at work when | got a call from your school saying you
hadn't shown up for class. | searched everywhere | could think of, but you were gone. As for why you

lead him to this point.
His nwas Elliot Hayes, the only son of the wealthiest man in Horizon Country.
Years ago, Suzy had been assigned an assassination mission-a lucrative job to kill his father. She hadn't expected
Elliot to stumble upon her in the act.
He was three years younger than her and had no combat skills, yet he fought her tooth and nail to protect his
father.
That moment reminded her of the scene of her own parents’ tragic deaths, and it struck a nerve she couldn't
ignore. For the first tin her career as an assassin, she violated the contract and abandoned the mission,
despite knowing it would cost her double the penalty.
