Who is Vincent

Percival heard a scream from the bathroom and immediately rushed in. For a moment, seeing Eulalia lying on the floor felt like a heavy blow to his soul.Before his mind could even react, he had hurriedly picked her up and taken her to the nearest hospital.The medical results were not optimistic. Eulalia had always been frail, her stomach deteriorating step by step despite the use of the world's top cancer treatments which only offered relief, not a cure.The candied hawthorn had nearly cost her her life; she was allergic to hawthorn.Percival remembered how Eulalia loved those candied hawthorns, yet he had never seen her eat them.---Eulalia lay in bed and had that dream again that night, clearer than ever before. She could hear a man's voice.A man in a white shirt approached her with a candied hawthorn: "Here's a candied hawthorn for you, little crybaby. Eat it, and no more tears..."She heard it distinctly, and it was not Percival's voice.Who was the man in her dream?In a daze,

Lies Exposed

At the breakfast table, Eulalia ate her meal absentmindedly, appearing as usual on the surface, but she could sense something was changing.In the morning, Mr. Brooks came to check on Eulalia, greeting her like an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time, asking how she had been recently."I'm fine." The two hadn't seen each other for weeks, and Percival hadn't given Mr. Brooks much opportunity to chat with Eulalia.After lunch, as everyone returned to their tasks, Eulalia took her stomach medicine, which made her a bit sleepy."You should sleep if you're tired."Eulalia softly hummed in agreement, rubbing her misty eyes—she usually took a nap at this time, sleeping whenever she could.After watching Eulalia go to bed, Percival and Mr. Brooks entered the living room."What did you call me here for this time?" Mr. Brooks casually asked as he sat down."Do you have any drugs that can control dreams?" asked Percival, his expression serious.Mr. Brooks stiffened slightly, "What do you mea

Eulalia's Pregnant

Lies have their shades of good and evil, and Eulalia didn't believe the lies Percival spun were benign.A hollow smile played on her lips, not reaching her eyes, which were desolate, making her smile uglier than tears."You love me, so you want to turn me into a fool?" Eulalia's eyes were blurred with tears. "You're so afraid of me regaining my memory, how can you expect me not to dwell on the past?"She shook her head, staggering backward step by step. The man before her seemed to have lost all humanity, a devil crawled out from hell."All I want to ask now is, who is Vincent?"Hearing this name, Percival panicked, feeling the thing he feared most closing in on him, with no way out.Eulalia, seeing Percival's flustered expression, seemed to understand something. Her smile deepened into a bitter grimace."Is he dead?"Silence was taken as affirmation."He must have been very important to me, otherwise why would I dream of him so often?" Eulalia mumbled hoarsely.Her intuition told her

The Confession

Madeline's face changed. First, she looked at Sebastian in a panic, then turned to Aurora and stammered, "What truth? What does your mother's death have to do with me? I don’t know... I know nothing..."Aurora sneered and said, "You don’t know? Then we have nothing to talk about. Someone, escort Lady Madeline out!"Immediately, a servant came in and pulled Madeline away. This was no longer Madeline’s house, but Aurora's. When she said for Madeline to leave, no one would defy her order.Madeline struggled and cried out, "Wait! Let go of my daughter!""I said I would release her, but only if you tell me the truth."Madeline immediately fell silent. Aurora lost her patience and commanded, "Get her out!"The servant dragged Madeline towards the door. Just as they were about to exit, Madeline suddenly broke free, ran back, and threw herself at Aurora's feet, yelling, "I’ll tell! I’ll tell! Just let her go!"Aurora coldly sat back down on the sofa and demanded, "Speak! What exactly is the t

Can't Have the Kid

Eulalia was pregnant, and Percival was completely unprepared. He had taken precautions every time—how could Eulalia possibly be pregnant?Where had he gone wrong? Percival calculated the time; during that period, Eulalia had always been by his side, without any chance to go out alone. The only time she went out was to the hospital, and he had even had someone follow her then.Leaning his head against the wall, Percival thought, Eulalia cannot have this child, neither from the perspective of her health nor the state of their relationship.Thinking of the child that was about to be terminated, Percival’s eyes reddened, his heart twisted in agony, pain making it hard to breathe.Mr. Brooks also learned of Eulalia’s pregnancy. He looked at Percival and asked sternly, "Do you want this child?""I can't keep it." It wasn't a question of desire but of necessity."Her body can’t handle the pregnancy, can it?"If they decided to keep the child, Eulalia might pay with her life."How will you te

The Decision to Escape

Eulalia stood silently, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. "Why are you treating me like this?""I don't want to, but I have to do this to keep you," he said.Eulalia knew he was determined to terminate the pregnancy. Her emotions fluctuated rapidly, her complexion growing worse."What if I stay by your side obediently?" she asked hoarsely. "Can we keep the baby?"Percival shook his head, silently mouthing "No."This child was hers, a life within her, her solace. Eulalia couldn't understand why Percival would rather adopt from an orphanage than have her bear their child. Did he despise her that much?Eulalia's gaze drifted to the corridor outside and the windows of the hospital room. Percival immediately understood her thoughts from her actions."We're on the twelfth floor; you can't escape. I'll have someone watch you until you go through with the abortion," he declared.Such heartless words from a man who once claimed to love her more than his own life—how ridiculous.The

Eulalia is Missing

"Ms. Hayak..." As soon as Eulalia spoke, tears began to roll down her cheeks, her first step in seeking Ms. Hayak's help was to gain her sympathy.Eulalia was beautiful, and her illness made her tears even more pitiable, like raindrops on pear blossoms, eliciting compassion. Ms. Hayak, moved and anxious, quickly fetched some tissues to wipe Eulalia’s tears."Why are you crying?" Ms. Hayak asked, hastily dabbing at her tears, "You should be happy about being pregnant."Eulalia shook her head: "Ms. Hayak, is Percival really going to abort my child?"Ms. Hayak froze, her hand stiffening around the tissue as she struggled to process the news."Why... why would he do that?"Eulalia explained everything to Ms. Hayak, including how the medicine Percival had given her was meant to disrupt her memory, indicating he never wanted her to recover her memories.To ensure she couldn't remember anything, he even planned to reduce her to a simpleton and keep her confined here.Eulalia didn’t understan

Where could She Go

Eulalia had disappeared; she had fled.Percival had meticulously pieced together all his thoughts: Eulalia had planned her escape from the very beginning.She first signed the surgery agreement to lower his guard, using his guilt to ensure he kept his distance for the week.Then, she seized the opportunity of his relaxed vigilance to escape.Percival had never imagined Eulalia would leave him in such a manner—amnesiac, mentally unsteady, pregnant, and penniless.Who else did she know besides him?Percival hung up the phone and walked straight out of the meeting room, leaving Oliver in charge.---Grabbing his car keys, Percival rushed to the parking lot. His hands trembled as he opened the door, and once inside the car, he dialed Eulalia's number."Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off..."Hearing this, Percival's breath caught, and a chill spread from his skin to his blood, freezing his heart.He feared Eulalia leaving him, and more so, feared something happening to her.

After Leaving

The bus was crowded and chaotic. Worried about pickpockets, Eulalia dared not close her eyes to rest. After a jarring 24-hour ride, she arrived in a small town. After briefly resting for a day, she continued her journey, hopping from place to place like a rabbit from one burrow to another. Two weeks later, she reached a village that was barely discernible on the map and rented an apartment near a school.The place had its pros and cons. The downside was the inconvenient transportation and the local dialect, which made communication difficult. However, Eulalia was adaptable and soon got used to these issues.The advantages were more significant: low cost of living, a mix of people that made it difficult to be found, and the fact that no identification was required to get things done. After paying her rent, Eulalia returned to her modest bedroom, which had only a wooden plank for a bed; she needed to buy a mattress and bedding.The house was not luxurious, but it was clean and not damp.

Looking for a Job

Eulalia went shopping again during the day, stocked up on some everyday stuff, and threw some fresh meat in the fridge to chill.The lady renting out the place to her is about thirty, with two kids. Eulalia hasn't talked to her much, but she seemed nice and friendly when they signed the contract.The landlady lives in the same building, which has five floors. Eulalia's on the third floor, and the landlady's up top.One day, she stopped by Eulalia's place, knocked on the door, and brought over some veggies from her garden.Eulalia accepted them and quickly checked her fridge to see if she had anything to give back.The landlady laughed and said, "Don't worry about it. It's just some veggies from my garden, not worth much. By the way, are you living alone?"She looked around the neat and tidy room that felt a bit too quiet."Yeah, just me."The landlady was curious but didn't pry since it's personal stuff. Still, she thought she should keep an eye on her from now on since living alone i
