Everett, who sat next to Rachel picking up food, paused.
While Rachel frowned, and her eyes were filled with doubt.
"Well, I forgot."
"I'm sorry, Coco. I don't know what's wrong with me. How could I forget?"
She looked at Coco apologetically, full of frustration.
Coco immediately shook her head. "Mommy didn't mean it. Mommy doesn't have to apologize."
Rachel smiled. "Thank you, my dear."
The two of them continued eating. Everett looked at Rachel for a few seconds and then looked away.
It was night. They were in a new environment, living in their new house, in a new city.
Rachel came out of Coco's bedroom.
The little girl fell asleep as usual.
Everything was the same.
But she felt something went different.
Rachel went back to the bedroom and sat on the sofa in a daze.
She had thought that she was fine, but she wasn't.
She forgot something.
Coco was sick, and then she passed out in a hurry. When she woke up, she forgot everything.
She couldn't remember anything.
Why?
Everett came out of the study. He looked at the time and went to Coco's bedroom first, then went back to their bedroom.
In the bedroom, Rachel was sitting on the sofa, looking ahead in a daze.
She didn't even notice him coming in.
Everett walked over and squatted in front of Rachel.
The light in front of her dimmed, and Rachel was stunned for a second before she replied. "Everett."
"What are you thinking?"
Everett looked into her eyes, which were as clear and bright as ever.
Rachel shook her head and lowered her eyelashes, concealing the clearness in her eyes.
"Everett, I guess something going wrong with me."
Everett's expression froze.
But it was only for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
Rachel frowned. "I don't know. I just don't think I'm fine."
She lowered her head, her hands wrung uneasily.
This was her unconscious reaction.
The year they got married, she would do something when she was nervous.
Everett took her hands and wrapped them around his hands, and asked, "Is it because you forgot something?"
Rachel looked up.
"Everett, I..."
Everett looked at Rachel without saying a word.
He waited for her to continue.
Rachel looked into his eyes when she felt she could get support from them to continue.
"Everett, can you tell me about the past?"
After a pause, Rachel reached out and grabbed his hand as if it were the only way that could save her life.
"Everett, I want to know about what happened in the past. Tell me, okay?"
Yiyun Town.
Brayden was walking along in the town, saturating in the sunshine.
