Bliss immediately approached Deirdre with its tail wagging. It rubbed against Deirdre's face with its snout to greet her enthusiastically. Deirdre petted its short fur and played with it.Brendan stood by the side and felt peculiar as he witnessed the scene.It was strange that he could not recognize the dog, but he felt like he was connected to it somehow.‘Bliss… What a familiar name…’Still, he could not remember clearly.He turned his head to ask the owner, "You claimed that the dog recognizes me. Has it seen me before?"Unaware of Brendan's amnesia, the owner casually assumed that he had forgotten due to his busy life. She gently reminded him, "Mr. Brighthall, do you remember? You brought Bliss to our pet shop a little over a year ago."She explained, "Back then, our pet shop was struggling financially, on the brink of bankruptcy. You generously provided us with financial support under the condition that we would take good care of Bliss and ensure its happiness as it grew u
Brendan fell silent. Since Deirdre was so certain, the reality seemed to have deviated from his memory to a certain extent.Deirdre alone would not be able to affect his investigation result. Could it be that Charlene was not the pure, kind person that he remembered?Brendan suddenly felt like his train of thought was a mess. After Bliss drank some water, it began to go around Brendan while whining. It nuzzled against his thigh, seeking his affectionate touch. Brendan paused momentarily before extending his hand to stroke Bliss' head. Though he couldn't feel the texture of its fur through the protective suit, an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart.Bliss responded by enthusiastically licking his hand.The owner approached with a bowl of dog food and couldn't help but remark, "It seems that Bliss misses you and Ms. McKinnon very much. Normally, it doesn't pay much attention to the shop's customers and prefers to nap in its bed. But it's eager to cuddle with both of yo
Brendan glanced at Deirdre and noticed the strain in her smile, sensing the deep sadness she carried within. He turned his head away, unable to meet her gaze directly."If what you say is true, then the memories I've lost aren't necessarily painful. It's just that I've forgotten what I never wanted to forget the most."Deirdre lifted her head in surprise, her eyes searching his face for answers.Brendan deliberately avoided her gaze, his actions betraying his true feelings.He couldn't deny the subtle joy he felt when he was with Deirdre. Deep down, he knew his heart longed for those forgotten memories.He resolved to do everything in his power to regain the lost fragments of his past.Before they left, the owner gave them a bag on purpose and said smilingly, "Both of you are very busy. It's possible that you don't see Bliss more than three times a year. This bag contains all the photos and information of Bliss for the past year."You may take a look if you have time. Keep them
"Would you like to go inside?" asked Brendan.Deirdre shook her head and remembered something. "We can go inside, but we don't have much time. We'll just have one ride and go."Brendan took out his money to get tickets while Deirdre made her way to the Ferris wheel, following her memory of this place. She stopped walking, and Brendan raised his head to look in confusion at the rotating Ferris wheel. "Would you like to get on this ride?"Deirdre nodded. Brendan did not comment further and joined her in the queue.They were a beautiful couple and drew the attention of many people. The people in the surroundings were having a discussion, and someone could not refrain from approaching them to inquire about their relationship status."Are you boyfriend and girlfriend, or are you married?"In the past, Deirdre would have been too shy to answer a question like that. But now, she responded naturally and casually, "We're boyfriend and girlfriend, and we'll be married."Brendan lowered hi
Deirdre was stunned for a moment.Mrs. Wanner looked at Brendan's arm and rolled up his sleeve. "Your arms are covered in rashes too. Are you having an allergic reaction?""Yes, it's an allergic reaction." Brendan pulled back his arm, unbothered. "The allergy medicine is stored in my room's closet drawer. Please bring it to me, Mrs. Wanner.""Alright, alright, alright. I'll grab it right away." Mrs. Wanner went upstairs hastily with swift movements.Brendan walked two steps away before he turned around and saw Deirdre's lowered gaze. Her expression was filled with guilt and uneasiness.Brendan stretched out his hand to her. "What's bothering you?"Deirdre took a step back, vexed. "It's all my fault. You were still fine with the protection when we were at the shop. You wouldn't have gotten an allergic reaction if not because you held my hand. I should have reminded you if I knew…"Brendan gently placed his finger on her chattering lips, his expression showing a hint of displeasur
"How are you so careless that you choke yourself while speaking?"Deirdre blushed and shook her head, her cough subsiding. Brendan wrapped his arms around her, and his gaze fixed on her flushed face. In a moment of distraction, while Mrs. Wanner was serving the soup, he leaned in and lightly kissed Deirdre's soft lips.However, his gentle kiss turned into a passionate one as he began to suck on her lips before finally pulling away. The sound of their lips smacking echoed in the kitchen.Mrs. Wanner was confused. "What's that sound?"Deirdre pursed her lips subconsciously. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could hide herself.Sensing Brendan's blazing hot, passionate gaze that felt like he could swallow her right there and then, Deirdre made up an excuse to get out of the kitchen.She escaped this time, but Brendan held her by her waist after dinner, and they staggered their way into the bedroom before landing on the bed. Brendan lowered his head to kiss her lips, his e
Brendan pursed his lips and frowned slightly. "I remember that place."Deirdre was pleasantly surprised. "And then? What do you remember?""You eloped with Tobey and hid there to make me think that you were dead so that you could be with Tobey," he replied.The corners of Deirdre's mouth twitched. "You've clearly forgotten everything, but why does it feel like you're still trying to smear my name? Who said that I 'eloped' with Tobey?""Weren't you going to leave with Tobey?"This question stunned Deirdre. When she had lost all hope for Brendan, it was Tobey who had offered to help her. At that time, she really thought that it would be a good idea to use her whole life to repay Tobey's favor."It seems that I indeed remember correctly." Brendan's face darkened.Deirdre's hesitation made him upset, so he turned sideways, leaned over, and began to swamp her with kisses, trying to completely remove the name 'Tobey' from Deirdre's mind."Wait… Wait a minute..." Deirdre struggled whi
"Hate her to the core?" Ryker smiled disdainfully. "I just got the news that Brendan ordered his subordinates to investigate the cause of Charlene's death.""What!?" The pitch of Emily's voice changed. "How did this happen? Wasn't he under the impression that Deirdre killed Charlene? You tampered with Brendan's bad memories and inserted Deirdre into them. It stands to reason that Brendan would not suspect anything..."She stared at Ryker. "Could it be that your hypnotism has lost its effect again?"Ryker was not upset at all. "If my hypnotism had lost its effect, wouldn't Brendan have already recovered his memory? Why would he have to ask his subordinates to investigate?"Emily felt that his remark made sense, but she was still furious. "If that's the case, then what's going on?"Ryker's eyes had a solemn look. "That Deirdre is not as simple-minded as we think. She carries a heavy weight in Brendan's heart."Emily was taken aback. "You mean... Deirdre did all of this? She asked B
