Chapter 407
Alana, unable to resist, said, “You’ve probably had a tough time these past two years too, haven’t you?”
I was taken aback. “How did you know?”
“I guessed.” She smiled helplessly, appearing like a thoughtful older sister. “Although we haven’t interacted much, I can tell you’re not the kind of woman who plays both sides.
“Giving up on him back then must have been unavoidable, right?” It was a question, but her tone was certain.
I wasn’t surprised that she could guess this.
Alana was the type who, despite seeming carefree, was actually very perceptive and attentive to details.
In short, the Smith family seemed to be quite perceptive people.
I had no reason to lie to her, so I nodded and admitted, “Yes, Frank’s father came to find me. And then, Ryan… also promised that if I went back with him, he would help Frank.”
“You’ve had a hard time.”
Alana sounded a bit rueful, “It’s a pity that Luke used such dirty tactics, almost causing Frank to suffer a setback. Actually, he did suffer a setback, but Frank managed to turn things around.”
Hearing this, I smiled faintly. “Yes, he’s been smart since he was young.”
As a child, he was always much more clever than the other kids we played with.
The smartest and most flamboyant.
Grandma always thought I was fearless, but in reality, Frank used to tell

me to make trouble as much as I wanted because he would handle any trouble that came after.
He was the one who nurtured my spoiled and willful nature as a child.
I was like a vibrant sunflower.
Alana was somewhat surprised. “You’ve regained your “mory?”
“Yes.” I handed her a bottle of water. Two years ago, after an accident, I happened to regain my memory.”
She was very perceptive. “Because of Frank?”
“Not exactly.”
It was more that I was in a completely broken state at that time.
I hadn’t managed to control my psychological issues.
There were also issues on Frank’s side.
It just happened that his incident seemed related.
If the incident had involved Grandma, Jane, or even Jack, I might have reacted the same way.
So blaming Frank for this was not quite fair.
Alana unscrewed the bottle cap..“These past two years, you’ve been with Ryan…”
“I wasn’t in Jelaston.”
Speaking to her, it was easier to be honest. “After the accident, I went to Frankes. The news was just suppressed.”
Alana frowned. “So why did Megan call you, and Ryan answered?”
“Huh?” I was momentarily stunned before realizing what she meant. That night after the accident, I left the Frost family’s residence without

taking my phone.”
After waking up, I just wanted to start over.
I wanted to sever all connections with Ryan.
