Chapter 905
According to Sadie, she and he had once been deeply in Love.
But Aldus had forbidden their union and demanded that they separate.
Then, without warning, Holden had vanished into thin air.
In the wake of this heartbreak, Sadie claimed she left the country solo, only to discover her pregnancy shortly afterward.
She navigated the birth alone in a foreign hospital with an aching heart.
But from the moment Adele entered the world, something felt amiss.
Taking care of her by herself was an uphill battle, with Adele’s health steadily deteriorating.
Desperate, Sadie returned to the country, hoping he could save their daughter.
Recalling the memory, Holden pinched the bridge of his nose.
Sadie had kneeled before him, her tears flowing freely, her desperation tangible.
She implored him to save Adele.
Back then, Holden had gently explained his amnesia following a car accident and that his past was a blank canvas.
He remained skeptical about their supposed past romance.
When he gazed at Sadie, he sensed emptiness, like looking at a stranger.
Though he suffered from memory loss, certain inherent habits refused to fade.
His heart knew its longings.
Holden did sense a void, an absence of someone significant.
Yet, was it truly Sadie he had forgotten? He couldn’t be sure.
However, when he beheld Adele for the first time, an unshakable truth hit him: she was his daughter.
Subsequent DNA tests cemented this reality.
In contrast to his feelings about Sadie, Holden felt an unbreakable bond with Adele.
Her eyes held a familiarity that felt like home.
Sadie, on the other hand, elicited no such emotions.
The pragmatic businessman that he was, Holden knew rash decisions fueled solely by emotions weren‘t wise.
Thus, he welcomed Adele into his life while harboring skepticism about Sadie’s claims of their former love.

For Adele’s sake, he gave Sadie the title of fiancée.
But he understood that love was absent from this equation.
Delaying their marriage, Holden clung to a glimmer of hope that his memories might resurface and unveil the truth.
Yet, witnessing Adele’s persistent illness overshadowed his personal feelings.
All his energy was focused on healing her.
And for Adele, he was willing to accept Sadie as his wife, after all, she was Adele’s mother.
A deep concern gnawed at Holden — despite numerous consultations with child psychologists over the year, Adele remained nonverbal, showing no signs of progress.
This reality tormented him, leaving him frustrated and helpless.
As the leader of the Fredrick Group, he was unable to secure adequate treatment for his own daughter.
He’d never felt more inadequate.
After tenderly calming Adele to sleep, Holden stepped out to converse with her doctor.
“Any updates on Adele’s mental state recently?” he inquired, his brow furrowed with worry.
The doctor gravely adjusted his glasses and handed Holden a childish crayon drawing.
“This was from her test today.
I’ve noticed some fluctuations in her mental state over the past few days.
It seems a new person or event has entered her life, stirring things up a bit.
