Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1453

Jeo did have a soft spot for his ex-son-in-law, but when it came to the fact that his daughter almost lost her life because of this guy, there was no way he could play nice with Steven anymore. But Jeo was a big softie, always the peacekeeper, and Pandora usually called the shots at home. He glanced at Steven, then turned to Pandora.
Pandora, on the other hand, stood her ground, not backing down from Steven a bit. "We ain't so broke that we can't feed ourselves, no need for you to stick your nose in, President Dixon."
Steven had his ways of persuading them to accept the food. "You guys traveled a long way, and you are my elders. It's only right for me to treat you to a meal. These dishes took hours to prepare, even if you don’t eat, Hannah must be hungry by now. Let her eat. She hasn't eaten much since she woke up, and going hungry isn't gonna do her injuries any good."
Hearing that Hannah hadn't eaten much since she woke up, Jeo was worried sick. "Mama bear, let's eat. We can bear with hunger, but Hannah can't."
Pandora glared at Steven and took the food cart, "Well then, thank you. We'll eat this. You can leave now."
Steven, "I haven't had dinner yet." He wanted to spend a little more time with Hannah.
But Pandora wasn't going to play along. "Either leave the food here for us to eat or take it and eat it yourself. There's no way we're eating with you."
That's just how Pandora was. She liked to cut things off clean and clear, leaving no room for Steven to cling on, and she certainly didn't want her daughter to suffer anymore.
She couldn't bear to see her daughter getting hurt so badly because of this man, let alone risking her daughter's life. If Hannah wasn't so lucky this time, she would have been in mortal danger. Then their trip to Harbor City would have been to prepare for their daughter's funeral.
Steven didn't want to leave, but none of the three in the room wanted him to stay. Especially Hannah, she didn't even want to look at him now.
Pandora urged, "If you can't bear to part with the food, take it with you. I can buy food, just don't waste our time."
Steven looked at Hannah. "Hannah..."
Hannah looked back at him, her eyes full of confusion and panic. "Mom, Dad, this man is so weird. He's been hanging around me since I woke up, I can't shake him off, and he keeps saying weird things to me. Should we call the police?"
This strange and frightened look in her eyes broke Steven's heart. Though it was hard for him to admit, he had to face the fact that Hannah really didn't remember him. It must have been something he did in the past that broke her heart so badly that she completely forgot him.
"Hannah, remember this, no matter what, I will make you remember me." After saying this, Steven turned around and left.
He didn't even have the courage to face Hannah's unfamiliar gaze.
...
After Steven left, Pandora kept looking at Hannah. "Do you really not remember him?"
Hannah didn't answer. But Pandora seemed to understand everything. She said, "If you can’t remember him, then don't force yourself to."
Jeo, however, was not as thoughtful as Pandora. He was very worried. "Hannah, did you forget Steven? And if you did, would you forget us too?"
Pandora glared at him. "She’s our Hannah; even if she forgets others, there's no way she will forget us."
Jeo argued back, "How can you be so sure? If Hannah forgot Steven, it must be because she got hit hard in the head. Maybe one day she'll forget us too."
Hannah laughed. "Dad, don't worry. Whether it's you, Mom, or Farley, I remember you all very clearly. I'll definitely not forget."
