The Lamborghini drove away from the hospital, not speeding.
Ivan drove with one hand on the wheel, the other resting lightly on the open window, allowing the gentle evening breeze to brush in.
His deep eyes looked ahead, lost in thought, recalling Agnes's words from earlier.
The girl had forgotten the painful memories of the past, a rebirth of sorts.
But what about Spencer?
He had not come to terms with his past, tormenting himself in an unhealthy way for ten years.
Who was luckier, the one who had lost their memories or the one who still remembered?
Ivan had originally planned to drive back to Emerald Bay, but a thought quietly crept into his mind.
He picked up his phone and dialed Spencer's number, but no one answered after three attempts.
Putting down his phone, he drove towards Spencer's place.
Upon arriving, Ivan saw Spencer's car in the yard, indicating he was home.
He got out of the car and walked towards the living room.
As he pushed open the door, a strong smell of alcohol hit him, and he instinctively raised a hand to shield himself, furrowing his brow.
It was downright overpowering!
Ivan spotted Spencer lying on the couch and headed towards him, a few scattered bottles on the coffee table.
The room was sealed shut, so he opened the windows first.
"Spencer." Ivan stopped in front of the couch, looking down at the motionless man lying there.
No response when he called his name.
Ivan took a few steps forward, bending down to shake him, "Spencer."
"Summer..." Spencer mumbled this name unclearly, clearly completely drunk and out of it, "Summer, don't leave..."
