“Then tell me, why don’t I remember you?” Jeanette continued asking.“You were involved in an accident and fell into the sea. Then, Elias saved you and tricked you. I’m sure you remember everything that’s happened after that?”Naturally, she knew what had happened after that more than anyone else. After that car accident, Xavier had saved her, and she had lost a lot of blood from going into labor. She had nearly lost her life.However, everything about her life prior to that was blank.Elias
That was unless someone had said something or done something to her.However, this time, Damon was wrong.Elias may have lied to him before and used Jeanette’s memory loss to construct a fake life and get close to her, but Elias really believed that she was dead after she fell into the sea four years ago. He had fallen into depression and had been drinking himself into a stupor every day.Elias had been overseas over the past two years and probably had no idea that Jeanette had returned to th
“I’m still married to Jeanette Leighton. I have a wife. You can’t possibly have been unaware of that, can you, Miss Wade?”Sylvia noticed the inaccurate tone in his voice and quickly covered it up. “That’s all in the past. My Damon is single now—”“If you have no qualms with becoming my mistress, a position without any right in the eyes of the law, so that I may work with your father, I suppose you could do that.”“You!” Abigail immediately rose to her feet. “You think I’m here today to repre
Xavier, who had been reprimanded, looked very upset. He pulled out his phone and saw that Jeanette had sent him a message: ‘I need to ask you something. Can we meet up right now?’Xavier smiled. His fingers quickly typed out his reply: ‘Okay.’At a cafe…By the time Jeanette had rushed over, Xavier had been waiting for her for ten minutes.“Sorry for calling you out in the middle of the night like this,” she apologized.“It’s fine. I’m always free anyway.” Xavier pushed the coffee that he h
“It’s because you were pregnant with his child, of course.”Jeanette couldn’t remember a single thing from her past. Hearing Xavier’s narration felt like someone else’s story.Xavier continued. “That year, when you were pregnant with your first child, you ended up losing the baby in the end due to his random philandering—even your half-sister got involved. You were heartbroken at the time. However, meanwhile, there were rumors of him having an affair with someone else…”Her hand trembled, and she nearly spilled the coffee in her cup placed in front of her.‘Was my past that eventful? But why was Damon gazing at me so passionately at the hospital? Was he just putting on a show? For the sake of our son?’“Why haven’t you told any of this? You knew everything!”“I knew. Of course I knew. But it’s best to forget all of these depressing things. How could I possibly bear to cut a hole into your scars?”Xavier had an incomparably sincere look in his eyes. He didn’t look like he was lyi
However, Jeanette had been looking at the company’s job offer over the past two days. An amnesiac like her did not remember anything about her past, and she couldn’t even write a decent resume. The one she had submitted was utterly useless.Besides, she was a single mother. She needed to leave the office early with two days off. It was really difficult.‘The Godfrey Group has over 10,000 employees. I’m just getting interviewed for the job of a small, insignificant clerk. How could I possibly d
“Who?” Lucia’s lips trembled. It was obvious that the person she had seen during the interview had given her a huge shock.After a long pause, she still couldn’t bring herself to reveal the person’s name.Just then, Jeanette’s name was called from the front. Jeanette didn’t dare delay. She had no choice but to let go of Lucia’s hand and walk into the interview room.She was too afraid to lift her head due to her intense nervousness. She kept her head down and gave the interviewers a deep
Jeanette looked around her. The potential candidates, who had finished their interviews and still hadn’t left, were all standing outside in groups of threes or fives, each whispering amongst themselves. The topic of everyone’s discussion was, of course, Damon.“I wonder what Mr. Godfrey is doing here. But seeing a mythical figure like him today is worth everything, even if I fail the interview!” Lucia looked absolutely infatuated.Jeanette was taken aback again. So was the reason she felt so n
