Chapter 1
Before the wedding, the boyfriend suddenly lost his memory. He remembered everyone, except for
her.
That day, she obtained a drug that could awaken lost memories and eagerly ran to find him.
As soon as her hand touched the doorknob, several familiar voices suddenly came from inside the private room.
“Donte, how did you come up with the trick of pretending to have amnesia? It’s so clever to deceive everyone! Maeve would never have expected it. How long do you plan to play this game before telling her the truth?”
The cheerful laughter made Maeve Crosby stand still, her face completely frozen.
Donte Leblanc, was he really pretending to have amnesia?!
What she went through these days, crying in pain until midnight because of his illness, was
nothing!
A chill rose from Maeve’s feet and slowly spread throughout her body, as if she were falling into an
icy abyss.
She clenched her teeth tightly and heard Donte’s indifferent tone.
“Just one more month, and then I’ll return to Maeve’s side, continuing to be a loving and loyal
boyfriend.”
Upon hearing these words, the brothers were astonished.
“Is it enough for you to have fun? How many have you played with during this period of time! Why don’t you just break up with Maeve? You’ve been with her for seven years. There’s no one in our
circle as loyal as you.”
“Why go through all that trouble? You even faked amnesia just to keep Maeve from getting mad? Aren’t you exhausted?”

Faced with their teasing, the smile on Donte’s face gradually faded away.
“I’d never break up with Maeve–she’s the only one I love. It’s just that we’ve been together so long it’s gotten a bit stale. In bed, she can’t make me happy, and I don’t want to push her too much. This time, I’ll just hit the pause button and take a break for myself. I’ll be back by her side and be her one and only in a nonth.”
“That being
did. Maeve’s pretty straightforward. If she were to find out the truth, she wouldn’t inst swallow her pride and stay
silent. Aren’t you afraid she might break up with you?”

“Yeah, Alec from the Wilcox family really messed up. His girlfriend went abroad, and now he’s still chasing after her, like a crazy guy.
Although a group of people spoke with great seriousness, Donte didn’t pay any attention to it at all.
He shook the glass of wine in his hand and chuckled lightly.
“She would always be mine in this lifetime. As long as she doesn’t change her name, even if she were to go abroad or remarry, I would bring her back and keep her by my side for the rest of our
lives.‘
Upon hearing h
his confident tone, everyone in the private room shouted, “Donte is awesome!” And then, they started popping champagne.
Maeve had already become numb. She dragged her heavy steps and stumbled away from the bar.
It was pouring rain outside.
She walked into the rain as if she couldn’t sense it.
The cold raindrops fell on her body, and her trembling hands couldn’t hold on anymore. The bottle of medicine in her hand suddenly fell to the ground.
Watching the hard–earned pills that could treat amnesia being washed away, those long–dormant memories were also completely awakened.
Maeve and Donte’s first encounter took place at the New Year’s party during their freshman year.
She made her grand entrance, stunning the audience with a performance of “Liebestraum S541“.
Donte fell in love with her at first sight and held a large bouquet of roses backstage, saying he wanted to pursue her.
Maeve had long heard about the school heartthrob who had already dated more than twenty girlfriends within just one month of starting school. His romantic history had spread throughout the entire school.
She didn’t like men like Donte, especially because of her parents‘ infidelity and the resulting broken family. Therefore, she had a strong aversion to relationships.
Faced with his pursuit, she turned a deaf ear and kept her distance.
But he, as if possessed, kept clinging to her, refusing to let go even though he had been rejected many times.
He pulled the entire school’s power switch without hesitation so that she could rest well during her period, and openly declared his love for her in front of all the teachers and students on the
2/5
playground. He rejected all the girls‘ confessions for him.
Donte had been pursuing her for three years, but Maeve still didn’t agree to it.
Until the summer after the college entrance examination, she was blocked in the alley by a few hooligans.
Donte fought with four or five people for her, and he was stabbed four or five times, almost losing
his life.
She cried uncontrollably by his sickbed, unable to understand how he could be willing to give up his
life for her.
At that moment, she thought, it was him.
The two of them were together for seven years, from their youthful campus days to workdays, and
Donte remained faithful to her.
