Ethan exchanged confused looks with Abigail and Rebecca, wondering if Adam was acting or if the blow he took really affected his memory.
"You don't remember?" Ethan asked him, his voice tinged with frustration and curiosity. "You kidnapped Abigail. You took her against her will on a yacht, you wanted to shoot me. You don't remember any of that?"
Adam's eyes widened, a flash of recognition passing through them. He winced in pain as he tried to sit up, and the officers standing nearby remained vigilant, making sure he didn't make any sudden movements.
"I… I don't remember." Adam muttered in confusion. "I don't know what you are talking about. I only know that my body hurts terribly, especially my head. If it is possible, I would ask you to leave. Your presence disturbs me." He said with a frown of pain. The nurse immediately interjected, "The patient has just regained consciousness, and he has sustained serious injuries. I think it would be really good if you all got out."
Ethan felt anger rising inside him. He clenched his fists in helplessness, and Abigail gently took his shoulder and gestured with her head towards the door. Ethan reluctantly nodded in response to Abigail's silent gesture, accepting the nurse's request. "Good." He said in a voice laced with frustration. "We'll leave for now. But remember, Adam, this isn't over. You'll get what you deserve, one way or another."
With that, Ethan turned away from Adam's hospital bed, Abigail following behind him. Rebecca lingered for a moment, her eyes fixed on Adam, before she too left the room.
