Chapter 2754
Nicole's eyes were brimming with tears as she felt a dull ache in her chest.
It was such a familiar name, but it had always been hidden in her deepest corners of her subconscious. In fact, she had never experienced such a massive surge of feeling, but when she did, it struck her like a punch to the heart.
"They're doing fine. When you first came back, I'd already informed him that you wouldn't be around because you've lost your memories. But don't worry. He has been asking about you. Since you remember him now, you may contact him." Jared stroked her hair softly and comforted her.
"Let's go home first," Nicole said, having a mix of feelings at the thought of contacting Zane out of the blue.
She was feeling unsettled, as if her heart and mind were at odds with one another.
"Alright, we'll go home then." Jared gave her a warm and gentle hug, comforting her.
"Now that I can recall the past, it feels like a lifetime has passed since then." Nicole sighed.
Although she had been regaining fragments of her memory from time to time ever since she returned, Zane and his organization were much like family, just like the Riddles. Both of which held an important place in her heart.
"Actually, I was not the only one searching for you all these years. Zane had been trying very hard to find you as well. Thankfully, you returned, and everyone has been a lot more at ease since then." Jared patted Nicole in the shoulder.
Even if she did not return, none of them would give up, and they would continue their search for her forever.
Still, one could only imagine how hurt and sad Nicole felt.' They must've despaired countless times when they failed to get any leads on my whereabouts.'
After all, Crescent Island was far and remote. It was disconnected from the outside world. On top of that, Nicole had lost her memory, so it was normal for them to fail during their search.
Realizing that she had an odd look on her face, Jared asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Nicole shook her head.
Then, she looked up at Jared and smiled, "I was just thinking back about my life back at Crescent Island."
Nicole was living a carefree life on that little island. While she was raising the two kids, she had even thought about settling down at the island permanently. Yet, what she did not know was that there were many people out there who were genuinely worried about her. They were sparing no effort in searching for her while trying not to fall into despair.
