Chapter 241: Where Exactly Are You Taking Me?
After returning home from the hospital, both Michael and Wendy seemed to be in a more lighthearted mood.
This time, Michael’s actions of taking her back and taking her to the hospital all showed that he really wanted Wendy to recover her memory. And those memory fragments also proved that the medicine she took to inhibit the recovery of her memory at the beginning really did not have the effect of being irrecoverable if she took it for a month.
As a result, Wendy’s mistrust of Michael shifted a bit.
Jake and Leah were already home from school, and as soon as they saw Wendy and Michael coming back, they both ran over to greet them. freёwebnovel.com
"Mummy, you seem to be very happy today." Even Leah could see that Wendy was in a good mood, so she took her hand and said with a smile, "Oh, Mummy, I was chosen by the teacher to be the lead dancer today. I’m so happy."
"Really? Are you that impressive?" Wendy had seen Leah’s previous dances and she was really good at dancing, so she said, "What are you leading a dance for?"
"It’s for a celebration." Leah talked to Wendy happily, "By the way, mummy, parents are also going to be there for this celebration. There is something about an event... "
Leah couldn’t remember and turned to Jake for help.
Jake said, "Parent-child activities."
"Yes, yes, yes, it’s a parent-child activity." Leah smiled and showed her white teeth adorably as she said, "The teacher said it’s best for both parents to participate, and there’s a sign-up sheet."
Leah let go of Wendy’s hand and immediately ran to get the registration form. Wendy took it and looked at it, then gave it to Michael.
"Daddy and Mummy will definitely go." Michael reached out and pinched Leah’s little cheeks.
"Yeah." Leah spun around in a circle with delight.
Michael found a pen and filled out the registration form. Then he helped Leah put it in her little school bag.
After the family of four had a very enjoyable meal, Michael took them for a walk downstairs.
The festival was a week away, and, on a Saturday, so both Wendy and Michael had time. Even if they didn’t have time, they would definitely be there for their son and daughter’s first parent-child event.

The next day was a weekend. Wendy didn’t set an alarm clock and planned to sleep until she woke up naturally.
She felt an itch on her face and subconsciously reached out to wave it away, only to have Michael grab her hand and say in a gentle tone, "Don’t move, I’m dressing you."
Wendy was forced to regain some consciousness and opened her eyes to see that Michael was really dressing her and said, "What are you doing?"
Wendy picked up her phone and looked at it. It was indeed the weekend. What was Michael doing?
"Get up and wash up. I’ll take you out after breakfast."
When Wendy heard Michael’s words, she reached out and rubbed her eyes as she said with exasperation at being woken up, "It’s only 6:30 in the morning and it’s so early. Where are you going?"
"I won’t tell you yet, but you’ll know when you arrive." Michael reached out and pulled Wendy up, then kissed her on the forehead and urged, "Hurry up, or we’ll be late."
Wendy looked confused and resisted a little.
She closed her eyes, fell back on the bed again and said, "I’m not going. I’m too sleepy."
"You won’t be sleepy if you get up," Michael looked at the sleepy Wendy and was a bit helpless.
Michael pulled her up again, and Wendy looked at him with cold eyes. But Michael did not have any intention to compromise.
In the end, it was Wendy who was forced to get up.
Wendy woke up with a grumpy look on her face and followed Michael’s request to get up, wash up, and eat breakfast.
After everything was done, Wendy realized that it was just after seven o’clock.
She yawned as Michael took her hand, helped her carry her bag and whispered, "Don’t wake up the kids. Let’s hurry up."
"Where exactly are you taking me?" Wendy was listless.
"Mummy... " Leah’s voice came from behind Wendy.
Leah, in her little slippers, reached up and rubbed her eyes as she looked at them with a bewildered look and said, "Mummy and Daddy, are you guys going out, and Leah wants to come with you."
Michael was afraid he would wake Leah up.
Michael didn’t expect what he was afraid of were to happen.
Michael walked back, lowered his head and kissed Leah’s little cheeks, and said gently, "Mummy and Daddy have business to attend to, so we’ll take Leah with us next time, okay?"
"Okay... " Leah was filled with unhappiness, but still obeyed and didn’t go along.
Michael thought of his daughter’s aggrieved expression before he left and felt some heartache.
"Michael, can you tell me first about where you’re taking me?" Wendy sat in the car and was half awake from her sleep when she said, "You love Leah so much, but you’re not even taking her?"
"Next time, I’ll take her. This time, it’s not convenient." Michael looked at Wendy and held her hand tightly.
"So, where are we going anyway?"
The more Michael didn’t tell her, the more curious Wendy became.
"Don’t be anxious and you will find out later." Michael’s ability to keep people in the dark was really remarkable.
When Wendy saw this, she pretended to be angry. But even so, Michael still did not say.
After they drove for more than an hour, the car finally stopped.
Michael personally got out of the car to help her open the door.
What she saw was the blue sea...
Lake City was a coastal city. It took an hour or so to get from downtown to the beach.
However, Wendy did not expect Michael to be so mysterious about bringing her to see the sea.
"Why did you suddenly think of taking me to see the ocean?"
Wendy smiled lightly and felt that her mood was much better when she looked at the azure sea.
"Do you like it?" Looking at Wendy’s smile, Michael was also happy.
"Yeah," Wendy nodded her head.
She had seen the sea before. But she had lived downtown all these years and hadn’t been to the beach for such a long time.
It was still early at this time of the year, and there weren’t many people at the beach.
Wendy stepped on to the sand and felt that it was not enough, so she reached down to roll up her pants and took a big step into the sea.
When her feet touched the sea water, the cold temperature made her feel comfortable physically and mentally.
However, before she could squat and play with the water, ten or so people came behind her.
They stood in a respectful line, bowed to Wendy and said, "Mrs. Lucas, please come with us."
When Wendy heard their voice, she was a little confused.
Turning back to see a large group of people, she reached out and pointed to herself as she said, "You’re talking to me?"
"Yes, Mrs. Lucas."
Wendy looked around and saw Michael waving at her from a short distance away.
By now, Michael was surrounded by several people as well.
Michael cupped his hands to his mouth and said loudly to her, "Go with them."
Wendy looked at Michael, then at the men, and said, "What are you doing?"
Michael was telling her to go with them, so that meant these people must be safe.
Vaguely, Wendy had a feeling that Michael was going to surprise her with something, but she couldn’t guess what it was.
