Mable stared at the photo, feeling an inexplicable tightness in her chest. Why did they look so happy in the photo? Blair radiated such a sense of happiness.Mable furrowed her brow, feeling a strange mix of familiarity. She stood up and put the photo back in the drawer out of her sight."Mabes," Blair's voice came from behind.Mable turned to see Blair standing at the door. He walked in and glanced at the table, his eyes subtly flickering before he spoke, "Your room is next door, and I've put your things in there. Let me show you.""Sure. Thank you." Mable nodded and followed Blair to the next door.Mable’s promises to Blair to return to Richworth were not without conditions. First and foremost, they were to sleep in separate rooms, which Blair agreed to.Mable stayed in the master bedroom while Blair stayed in the room opposite.As Mable walked in, she saw the room's design, which felt somewhat familiar. “Did I stay here before?” She asked.“Yes.” Blair nodded. “Everything
"It's almost 8 a.m.," Spike said.Just then, Lemon, who was by Mable's side, woke up and started crying.Spike was taken aback. "Mommy, what's wrong with Little Lemon?""Little Lemon, don't cry; Mommy will hold you." Mable picked up Lemon and gently patted her back. "Maybe your little sister is hungry. Let me prepare her formula."Before she could finish her sentence, Blair entered the room holding a baby bottle."Let me take her," he said.He took Little Lemon from Mable and calmed her down with the bottle."Did you prepare the formula?" Mable asked, looking at Blair, who was feeding Lemon.Blair looked at Mable and nodded. "Yes, I learned how to do it. Don't worry, go wash your face and have breakfast downstairs."He had timed it well and waited, knowing Lemon would wake up soon. Upon hearing her cry, he came in to take care of her.Spike sat next to his dad, watching his little sister enjoy her bottle with a look of deep affection."Little Lemon is so well-behaved. She st
Zoe tightly embraced Mable, her cheeks turning red from excitement. "Mabes, I'm so happy to see you again. Ky was right; your kind nature will protect you, and nothing bad will happen.""Zoe," Mable replied softly, patting her back. "I'm also thrilled to see you again.” It had been a while since Mable had encountered such a joyful moment.Kyle looked at Mable and then at Blair. "This time, you won't leave again, will you?"Blair glanced at Mable but remained silent.Mable sat down on the couch, holding Zoe's hand. She asked, "Zoe, I heard from Blair that you suffered a serious injury and lost your memory?"Zoe ran her fingers through her hair, looking innocent. "Yes, I had a severe injury, and I can't remember anything. Thankfully, I have Ky."Mable glanced at Kyle, her brow slightly furrowed.Secret and X were archenemies. How could Kyle be with Zoe?Mable felt something was wrong, but she could not figure out the whole story. Besides, for some reason, she found Kyle parti
It was Blair. Even in the late night, his white hair was striking.Mable wondered why he was not sleeping and going to the garden at this hour. She was curious about his intentions.The next moment, Blair turned around and looked at Mable. Caught off guard by their eye contact, Mable nervously averted her gaze and hurried back to her room.She slapped her forehead and murmured, "I haven't done anything wrong, so why am I so nervous?"Not long after, there was a knock on her bedroom door."Who is it?""It's me," Blair's voice came from the other side.Mable opened the door and saw Blair with a glass of milk.He handed the glass to Mable. "If you can't sleep, have some milk. It’ll help."Mable took the glass. "Thank you."Blair asked Mable, "Aren't you curious about why I went to the garden just now?"Mable's expression turned slightly cold. "I'm not interested."Blair explained himself, "In the past, the roses in the garden used to bloom brilliantly at this time of year. H
It was a sleepless night for Mable.Early the following day, Mable went to Lemon's bedroom and found she was not there. As she descended the stairs, she saw Blair feeding Lemon breakfast.Nicki and Spike had already finished their breakfast and were getting ready for school. Spike ran over to Mable as she approached. "Mom, you're awake. Dad said you slept late last night and should rest a little longer so he didn't wake you."Nicki raised her little head and looked at Mable. "Aunt Mable, did you sleep well last night?""Thank you, Nicki. I did sleep quite well," Mable replied with a smile. Seeing the two children with their backpacks, she asked, "Are you ready for school?"Spike held Nicki's hand and nodded. "Yes, it's time. Bye, Mom, we're going to school."Mable saw them off and reminded them, "Be safe, and listen to your teachers at school.""Got it. Bye, Mom.""Goodbye, Aunt Mable."After seeing the two children off, Mable returned to the house, where Blair had already fin
After Mable left, Tracey approached Blair and asked, "Blair, where did Mabes go?"Blair looked towards the direction of the main entrance and replied, "I'm not sure."Surprised, Tracey said, "Why aren't you concerned about her? At least, you should have asked."Blair glanced at her indifferently and said, "I did ask. But do you think she would tell me?"Not only would she not tell him, but she would also find him annoying.Tracey sighed in frustration. "Oh, suddenly, I feel so sorry for you."Blair picked Little Lemon out of the walker after a short play session. It got a bit warm, and Little Lemon's tiny face turned rosy.Tracey tilted her chin to tease Lemon, saying, "I mean, Mabes just returned to Richworth yesterday. What could go wrong so soon?"Blair remained silent momentarily before answering, "She probably arranged to meet up with Adam.""Adam?" Tracey asked, puzzled. "You mean the guy around Rory?"Blair nodded, his deep black eyes revealing no emotions. …In fac
"Not to mention what?" Mable asked.Adam coldly chuckled. "Before Zoe lost her memory, the person she hated the most was Kyle. Now, Kyle has taken advantage of her amnesia, deceiving her emotions and coaxing her into marrying him. If Zoe recovers her memory and recalls how Kyle treated her in the past, she might even kill him."Mable sucked in a deep breath. "That won’t happen..."Mable recalled the scene when Zoe had come to visit her last night. They appeared very affectionate, and Kyle treated Zoe with great tenderness.Adam snorted coldly. "Why not?"“Did Kyle treat Zoe that badly in the past?”“More than that!?He was angry as he continued, "Back then, Zoe got close to Kyle to complete a mission and developed feelings for him over time. But Kyle, after discovering her true identity, used her, manipulated her, and even made her take contraceptives that harmed her health. You were the one who told me about this back then."Mable clenched her fists upon hearing this. "Kyle is
Adam nodded. "Yeah.""Since I’ll be in Richworth for now, contact me anytime if you need anything.""Okay."Mable was worried about Little Lemon at home. So, after conversing with Adam, she left. Once Mable was gone, Adam sat in the cafe, deep in thought. He picked up his phone and dialed Rory's number."Hello," Rory answered."Hey, it's me, Adam.""How's everything going?""I just met with Mable. She suggested bringing Dr. Wilbur Hammond to Richworth to treat Zoe. If Zoe can recover her memory, things between her and Kyle will be easier to resolve."Rory chuckled. "What do you mean? Are you planning to keep Zoe by Kyle's side?""Rorr, considering Zoe's current condition, it wouldn't benefit her if I brought her back to Italee forcibly."Rory's laughter turned colder. "So, keeping her by Kyle's side would benefit her?""That's not what I meant—"Before Adam could finish, Rory's tone grew stern as he said, "Adam, I'll give you ten more days. You must bring Zoe back to me."
