Chapter 25
After entering the memorial hall, Victor immediately spotted Lucian, who had a head full of white
hair, and Kaleigh, who sat in a wheelchair with a numb expression.
He held chrysanthemums and bowed three times in front of Kassandra’s statue, placing the chrysanthemums in front of the statue. He stared at Kassandra’s statue for a long time, lost in
thought.
Kassandra, as a person, had complex emotions.
Let’s talk about gratitude, Kassandra wasted five years of her youth.
Say what you hate, Kassandra supported herself again, allowing herself to continue studying.
However, once a person dies, they cannot be brought back to life.
Everything in the past vanished with Kassandra’s death.
Victor took one last look at Kassandra’s portrait before walking up to Lucian and giving a slight
bow.
“Uncle, please accept my condolences.”
Lucian nodded, but said nothing.
He walked up to Kaleigh again and looked at her for a long time before whispering softly.
“Take care and mourn.”
Kaleigh gave a bitter smile and said nothing.
Because a close relative had passed away, Gabriela, who was far away in prison, was also brought
out by the prison guards.
After going through the prison ordeal, Gabriela’s face no longer had any trace of rudeness.
I was completely numb all over.
Even when he saw her, there was no ripple.
Gabriela suddenly fell to her knees and burst into loud sobs upon seeing Kassandra’s portrait.
“Mom!”
The guests who came to offer condolences beside also turned their heads unwillingly.
On the day of Mrs. Powell’s burial, it rained lightly.

Kassandra passed away, and representatives from other noble families also came to offer their
condolences.
It was on this day that Leonel and Lizeth discovered that he had sneaked back.
But it didn’t say anything either.
But he still explained to the two of them.
Lizeth hugged him.
“If you were being threatened, we wouldn’t let her go either.”
In the cemetery, Lizeth and Victor held an umbrella together, watching as Kassandra’s coffin was slowly lowered into the ground.
Beside, Gabriela was crying so hard that she almost fainted, while two prison guards were holding onto her tightly from behind.
After the burial, the mourners left one by one.
He and Lizeth walked at the back, discussing their plans for the future.
“Victor.”
Kaleigh suddenly called out to him from behind.
Victor turned around and saw him standing in the rain, looking at him.
“Can you accompany me for a while?”
Lizeth looked at him worriedly, and whenever he frowned, Lizeth immediately declined for him politely.
Victor clenched the umbrella and then released it.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier as he walked beside Kaleigh, holding an umbrella. The McCann family’s butler, who had rushed over, also held an umbrella for Kaleigh while pushing her towards the exit of the cemetery.
“Victor, I had no home.”
The butler stopped pushing the wheelchair.
Victor also stopped and looked at him.
Mother passed away, sister was imprisoned, I became disabled, and father, perhaps for the sake of grooming a new heir, had not returned home for a long time. Even this funeral, he was the first to

leave.
She opened her mouth to say something, but found herself speechless.
What can I say?
Hasn’t their way of getting along been like this over the years?
Perhaps realizing this as well, Kaleigh suddenly let out a bitter laugh.
“If we could start over, how wonderful it would be.”
He could love him wholeheartedly and protect him.
They would not have reached this point.
She would not end up alone in her old age.
Unfortunately, there was simply no regret medicine in the world.
“Kaleigh.‘
The sound of rain isolated the outside noise, and for the first time, she heard Victor’s words so clearly.
“There is no chance to start over in life, we can only move forward.”
Whether it was her or me.
You can only keep moving forward.
There would be no chance for them to start over.
This is the third year after their divorce, and they can finally have a calm conversation for the first time.
“Let’s part ways amicably.”
When they first met again, he said to her like this, and at that time, she was full of thoughts on how to win him back.
I simply did not understand the farewell in his words.
The rain suddenly stopped.
He also put away the umbrella and walked towards the door.
“Afterwards, let’s not meet again.”

Book 3- Chapter 1
After the car accident, both my boyfriend and I lost our memories, and our romantic relationship had to be terminated.
He couldn’t wait to pursue his beloved who had just broken up with her boyfriend.
I also started dating my desk mate who had come back from abroad.
I thought we both would have a bright future.
When I sincerely wished him to find his true love, he questioned me as if he had gone mad, “Who allowed you to truly forget me?!”
I didn’t understand.
Was he pretending to have amnesia?
***
I broke up with Kaleb Saunders.
On the day of our second anniversary, we both lost our memories in a car accident.
A familiar friend came to the hospital and told us that we were in a romantic relationship.
Kaleb took a careful look at me, raised an eyebrow, and decisively said, “Since you don’t remember anything, then let’s not be together anymore.”
I understood what he meant, but I was somewhat worried and hesitant. “But there will always be that day when we remember, what if you regret it after recovering my memory? And everyone knows about our relationship.”
He chuckled lightly, exuding confidence. “Even if we forget the person we truly like, we won’t forget the feeling. Besides, who can say for sure whether we could regain our memory?”
Yeah, even the doctors couldn’t guarantee when we could retrieve the memories. They could only suggest that we interact more with people or things related to the past, which might help in recovering the memories.
The doctor informed us that there are many types of amnesia, and our case is probably classified as selective amnesia, where we only forget specific things or people, such as the romantic relationship between Kaleb and me.
And we remember all the other people or things very clearly.
This situation should be the self–protection of the body mechanism triggered by severe trauma to
