Chapter 4: Regained memories

Kevin's words stunned everyone, but only Kevin himself knew the truth.

Yes, he was the legendary "Lord Phoenix."

Years ago, Kevin was ambushed by his enemies and met with an accident.

He suffered head injuries and lost his memory. Fortunately, he was rescued by Mia, who happened to pass by.

The Perry family was in turmoil at that time, and Mia, as the heir of the family, was on the verge of being stripped of her inheritance rights because she was unmarried.

According to the Perry family's rules, only married individuals could take the helm of the family!

Thus, Mia set her sights on Kevin, who had lost his memory and was somewhat timid. To her, Kevin was merely a tool to enable her to smoothly take over the family.

Over the past few years, she had shown no concern for Kevin. Who would care about the feelings of a mere tool?

But obviously, no one would believe his words.

Mendy regarded Kevin for a few minutes and suddenly burst into laughter. "This your husband is a really humorous guy," he pointed at Kevin while his words were directed at Mia. Suddenly, the laugh was gone from his face, just as it had appeared. It was replaced with a cold one.

"You make it look funny but Phoenix would never love this joke."

Mia's heart skipped a beat. She was frightened. Everyone knew who Phoenix was and how powerful he was. Well, except Kevin who has been acting strange since she got home from work.

Phoenix wasn't the kind of person to be messed with. Not even the family of Perry can afford to stand against him. In fact, she needed Phoenix's help and not fight him.

She turned to Kevin in anger and hit him across the face.

Kevin was shocked while Mendy smiled secretly. He was very glad that he had successfully instigated Mia against Kevin. If Mia already hates him, it would be easy to get rid of him.

"Leave now!" She yelled. She was really angry and it was evident on her face. "Your attention isn't needed here. You, in fact, have no right to meddle in it. Leave before you cause us trouble!" She said harshly.

Morris chuckled. "Right, he needs to!"

Mia turned to Mendy with an apologetic expression. "Please, Mr Mendy, do not be offended. I'm sure there's something you can do about all these."

Mendy loved the fact that Mia was helpless. He always wanted to be a hero to her. "Well, your husband might cause a fatal disaster to your family. The Phoenix doesn't listen to explanation. He's not someone you can joke about. There will be no way for you guys to redeem yourself," he said with a hypocritical look.

Mia felt embarrassed and angry the more at the statement.

"You are not to interrupt this meeting!" Mia yelled suddenly, in anger, forcing Kevin out of his thoughts again. She glared at him. "Do you understand that, Kevin?" She tapped her feet in anger.

Kevin sighed and nodded slowly.

"Good!" She looked at Mendy again. "I'm really sorry but can we please talk in the meeting room? My room is in a mess. So, the meeting room is the best option," she explained.

Mendy nodded once. "Alright. That's fine by me," he reluctantly agreed.

And they both walked away.

Morris laughed. "Suit you right, loser!" He mocked and walked away with the men.

Kevin hesitated for a moment. He was still in shock at his discovery. He was not expecting what he just discovered.

He was the courageous Phoenix, yet he became a househusband and was mistreated every single time for a whole year.

Why didn't he remember earlier?

But where are his people? How did he get disconnected from them?

He still remembers Alessia as if he saw her the day before. He should reach out to her because she would have been worried to death. He remembered a phone number suddenly, took out his phone and dialed it.

It rang for a long time before someone finally picked it up.

"Yes, who is this?" a feminine voice said coldly.

Kevin recognized that voice instantly. There was no way he wouldn't. It was the voice he had heard for over seven years of his life.

Kevin went silent for a second. Alessa would definitely not expect this.

"It's me, little cat," he said finally.

There was a few minutes of silence from the other side. Alessa was probably thinking. She never would have thought it could be him.

Alessa screamed suddenly, then cried. "I knew you didn't die! There's no way you would have died," she sobbed further.
