Chapter 550 How Could You Say That (2/2)

Biting her lips to gather courage, she suddenly pleaded, ”Daddy, please go save Mommy! She's in D Country and in great danger! I have traveled such a long way back to Z Country! You're our only hope now!”

Jacob frowned as he asked, ”Who is your mother?”

Beryl asked in disbelief, ”Daddy, Uncle told me that you had regained your memory. Why don't you remember Mommy?”

However, Beryl did not want his embrace as she struggled out of his arms. In her efforts to escape him she slapped him lightly through the face. Her little palm made a soft ”clap” on his face.

He immediately felt a need to be angry, but found that he was everything except angry. It was as if nothing happened.

”Stop please, please! I will give you everything you want, okay?” he said gently, trying to appease her.

”Don't you dare say that again! I don't want to hear anything about her!” he cautioned as the headaches began again.
